"Slo-mo" refers to a slow-motion effect in video footage. However, there are alternative words that can be used instead of "slo-mo." These words include "slow-motion," "time-lapse," "slow-motion capture," "slowed down," "reduced speed," "time stretch," "slow time," "staggered footage," and "dilatory footage." Each of these words implies a different degree of slow-motion effect, with some indicating a more subtle effect and others a more dramatic one. Regardless of which term is used, the goal is to create an effect where an action appears to move more slowly than its actual speed in real-time. The right choice of words can help communicate the desired result to the audience.
