jerk - 1.3

jerk is a free iMovie plug-in that will make motion in a clip 'jerky' (and yes, we wrote this plug simply because we could give it this silly name), giving the clip a distinctively surreal, nightmarish quality. The plug-in works by repeating the same frame a specified number of times, thus effectively reducing frames per second (fps) from 30 (DV) to anything around 1.8. One use is to give your clip a distinct 'super-8' feeling (especially in conjunction with our 'flicker' plug-in). Since you can apply this effect to only parts of the clip, this can also create some really strange shearing effects when the frames shortly get our of sync.
In conjunction with the opacity slider, this plug-in also creates some rather psychedelic ‘pre-motion’ effects.
What should I use it for?
* give super-8 feeling to a clip * create psychotic dream-sequence effects * create equally disturbing pre-motion effects
