Smear frames allow you to emphasize fast-moving objects in animation by creating a distorted version of two or more frames. This technique is sometimes used by traditional animators as a way to mimic motion blur with their drawings, and gives the animation a very authentic and fun look and feel. Schmeeer uses clever expressions to drive the Echo effect as an automatic smear generator, with easy and intuitive controls for dialing in the exact look you're after.
