Understanding Traditional Motion Effects
You create traditional motion effects by generating a new clip with specific motion characteristics from an original clip that you open in the Source monitor. You then edit the Motion Effect clip into your sequence.
The three main types of motion effects are:
  Freeze Frame — Creates a clip that repeats a single frame from the original clip.
  Variable Speed — Changes the speed at which movement takes place in the clip. For example, if you begin with a 3-second clip and create a Variable Speed motion effect from that clip with the speed set to 50%, the result is a new 6-second clip in which movement takes place at half the speed of the original clip.
  Strobe Motion — Creates a stuttering effect in the playback of the clip by repeating certain frames from the original clip several times.
You can also combine Variable Speed and Strobe Motion effects in a single clip.
