Frame blending is a video editing technique that combines multiple frames to create a smoother transition between them. This method is often used to reduce motion blur or to create slow-motion effects by blending the images together, resulting in a more fluid appearance. In animation and film production, frame blending helps to enhance visual continuity, making movements appear more natural. By averaging the pixel values of overlapping frames, editors can achieve a seamless look, which is particularly useful in scenes with fast motion or quick cuts.
