Want to speed up or slow down footage? DaVinci Resolve has several options to help you do this.
You can easily change the playback speed of a clip in your timeline with some controls in the inspector.
You’re able to speed up a clip, slow it down, reverse, and more.
There’s even tools to help you generate new frames when slowing down a clip — making the motion appear smoother without any jerky motion due to repeated frames.
