running in reverse

I got to looking through some AMVs I've downloaded recently and in the past, and I noticed something. Some of the scenes used run backwards, and some are flipped horizontally and run forward, backward, or both.

I'm just curious about how this is done. Seems like it would come in handy for some of the videos I have in mind.

set the speed to -100 and set the field option to deinterlace video under 100.
theres an effect to flip it vertically or horizontally. it's in the same area as camera view and image pan

That went right over my head.

I take it you mean in VDubMod, correct?

Nope, Adobe Premiere 6.5 or older. (But don't deinterlace video under 100% if you're working progressive.)

You can do the same thing in Adobe Premiere Pro, except there's no Deinterlace option, and you should uncheck "Frame Blend Speed Changes" in the field options.

I don't think VDubMod has any internal 'reverse' filters, but AviSynth does. All you need to do is add Reverse() to your script, and use the Trim command if it's only part of the clip you want reversed.

So, I could do this in Premiere 6.0 (Which is what I have) OR using AVISynth.

The AVISynth script should look like:

MPEG2Source(filepath)
Reverse()
Trim(x,y)
otherfilters()

Where x and y mark in and out frames, correct?

Now, how is that done in Premiere?

-right click on track
-select speed
-type in -100 or check reverse speed

note - I'm doing this from memory been a while since I've used version 6

doing so will interlaace your footage. so then refer to my previous post to remove interlacing
