Ekko and Powder - 4 Frames per second mean | Arcane 2

The meaning of the 4 frames in the last dance between Ekko and Powder in another life #arcaneseason2 #jinx #ekko

Damn. At least they slowed it for us a little to make it last longer. Just the way Ekko couldn't stop time. But he could take it back a notch, just enough 😢

As cool as that sounds, the frame rate is not constant, it varies slightly between different segments of the dance (probably to express animation better), for example in the part that's just after Powder's "He's got lines", after the spin, two frames are put together with much smaller delay, making Powder's smile smoother and more expressive. at the times where the framerate does remain loosely constant, it's closer to 3.4ish frames per second. It really seems more like a default "choppy" way to show an emotional club dance scene, considering the way strobe light affects vision. The near 4 frame rate seems like a coincidence, as cool as it would have been.

I just now realized that when Ekko saves Jinx, Jinx has IV on her face

I though the animators just ran out of time and that it was a hastly render
