<p>What is the name of the effect where every other frame is dropped and the remaining frames are duplicated?</p>

<p>Like this...</p>

<pre><code>ABCDEFG   // 1: original
ACEG      // 2: every other frame deleted
AACCEEGG  // 3: remaining frames duplicated
</code></pre>

<p>Does Final Cut have this feature?</p>

<p>If not, how do I do this?</p>
