Whether you want to add a dramatic pause effect or emphasize a crucial moment in your video, Filmora for Mobile's freeze-frame effect is the perfect solution. At its core, a freeze-frame effect during editing splits the video and freezes your chosen frame, inserting it as a few-second-lasting image. So, let's learn how to add and adjust a freeze frame.
