What if Treasure Island (Dr. Livesey) Was Animated At 60 FPS?

What if the 1988 cartoon Treasure Island had been animated at 60 frames per second? I used an AI program to interpolate some scenes to a higher frame rate to see what that would look like.
NOTE: Please watch at 720p or above to get 60 fps and the full effect.
What do you think of the results?
💡 Background info:
The character Doctor Livesey from the 1988 Ukrainian animated movie Treasure Island, became an internet meme in 2022, in which his confident gait is set to the phonk track "Why Not" by Ghostface Playa.

Hmm...The movie was originally animated at 24 fps. When you forcefully convert it 60 fps, it gets rid of motion blur and adds a strange "warping/wobble" effect when characters move.

[@jaredhebert942]

yeah, I noticed that kind of effect on modern screens at Best Buy back in *2015* when Transformers: Age of Extinction was just hitting home video on DVD & Blu-Ray; while I understand higher resolutions & FPS being more desirable for a *handful* of games, it's not always desirable (in part because old Cathode-Ray Tube/CRT TVs achieve a similar but superior effect); makes me wonder how much we could improve CRT TV tech while making it more desirable & maintainable for the average, sometimes less-informed customer (as well as to disincentivize planned obselecence for manufacturers so they'd be *actually* more eco-friendly, but I digress)

I kinda like how that warping bubble effect looks like.

[@hilariousskullnamedcatzo647]

It's a product of adding a ai smoother for physical videos (stop motion or live action) to a 2d video

[@GeneSavage]

It's interesting, but REALLY odd, as characters in motion sometimes take on a "rubbery" quality. I almost feel like you'd have to animate at 60 fps for this to work right. Still, very fascinating to watch.

[@SilverScarletSpider]

This is a fever dream nightmare, especially with the music in the background

[@TheRealVodun13]

I definitely prefer the original animation, but the 60fps made it look so interesting

[@renzometalwolf]

The original was already smoother enough. Forcing it to 60 fps really messes the animation work. The movements looks robotic and looses impact and strenght

[@MrSamPhoenix]

Now let’s try 120fps!

[@CaptRobau]

I did interpolate it to 120 fps, which makes it a bit smoother, but I needed to scale it down to the 60 fps max framerate that CZcams has.

[@niscent_]

fun thing i learned, dr livesey is often animated at twice the framerate of other characters. like during the walk. which means you lose a whole dimension of the original by doing a dubious filling just to reach 60 fps.

It's obviously smoother, but animating so far between keyframes causes serious Uncanny Valley creepiness...

[@Decrepit_biker]

Keep watching for the weird music/ sound effects combo 😂😂

[@rapsi1978]

Would it be possible for you to apply this in an anime movie from the 69's or 70's?
Something tells me that would help it look more real.

[@bewareofsasquatch]

The background music hits hard. Good skate vid music or a car shoot with Japanese and European cars. Gets the heart going.

[@kaitlyn__L]

I hate how their movement still has a cadence of 12 or 24, but going between those frames is smoother.

[@felipesidonio]

Loved It!

[@HankMeyer]

I have a request: enhance the music videos for Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer, and for Weird Al Yankovic's Jurassic Park.

[@CaptRobau]

Enhance in what way exactly?

[@HankMeyer]

@@CaptRobau you know, frame rate, motion smoothing, resolution... whatever you normally do with classic stop motion video.

[@CaptRobau]

@@HankMeyer I'll look into it.

[@MANNY100123]

60FPS is truly something amazing to behold! G'stuff!

[@Nate_M_PCMR]

Frame interpolation will never look good on 2d animated movies, it's not made for that

[@user-vf1kc8hq6u]

Original win!

[@saulgoodman9278]

Would 48fps be better?

What a delightfully odd choice Cap. 😄

[@CaptRobau]

Thanks Caesius. I found this movie through the meme that's going around. I just love the energy of Dr. Livesey and I thought my 60 fps treatment would be a good fit for it.
