@poor Short, yet appropriate to the question. I think the best way to see why it is the best out there is to look it up YouTube! :)

<p>Motion from Apple has a setting for Motion Blur on all projects. <a href="https://help.apple.com/motion/mac/5.0/en/motion/usermanual/#chapter=6%26section=2%26hash=apple_ref:doc:uid:Motion-UserManual-90915BMP-1013584" rel="nofollow">This section</a> of the documentation explains how to set it (in the project settings). (It's under "Motion Blur and Reflection Settings".)</p>

<p>Once the project setting is set, you may also need to turn it on in the canvas to see it while editing. <a href="https://help.apple.com/motion/mac/5.0/en/motion/usermanual/#chapter=2%26section=8%26hash=apple_ref:doc:uid:Motion-UserManual-90915GUI-1018983" rel="nofollow">See here</a> for information on turning it on in the Canvas. (It's under the section named "Render pop-up menu.")</p>

<p>Motion renders a lot of stuff in real time, though turning on Motion Blur will slow it down. You can always set the number of samples to something low-ish (like 4 or 8) while working and turn it up for renders.</p>

<p>I believe that if you're using a Motion template in FCP that it will render the Motion Blur if you set the canvas to "Better Quality" playback.</p>

Thank you, Motion is another vfx editor, I would to see this behavior in a standard real-time editor rather than a vfx package.

<p>Is there an alternative to the automatic motion blur in After Effects for Adobe Premiere, Sony Vegas or Final Cut?</p>

Is there an alternative to the automatic motion blur in After Effects for Adobe Premiere, Sony Vegas or Final Cut?

I use it mainly to sync text/image animations with sound cues, however After Effects is not a real-time editor and is difficult to work with several layers.

Is this possible?

Motion from Apple has a setting for Motion Blur on all projects.
