I'm working on a motion-graphic piece in AE, and am trying to figure out if there is a way to disable motion blur temporarily. For example, say I have 100 frames of an animation, but i only want motion blur to be applied to frames 15-30 and frames 60-95. Is there a way to do this, or is motion blur just a toggle on/off?

There’s a built-in “CC force motion blur” plugin you could add to your comp as an adjustment layer. If you use that instead of the system motion blur, I think you could keyframe it on or off, or just keyframe the adjustment layer on or off. Be warned it is slower to render than blurring the usual way.

  • thanks! also, how much slower is to render? like an extra 15 minutes or are we talking hours here?

You could precomp the layers and duplicate them, so that one has motion blur and one does not, and toggle the opacity of each on/off.
