It depends on what you mean by "slow motion." True slow motion is shot with
special high-speed cameras. You can get a slow motion effect in most
full-feature video editing programs -- the program will double or triple (or
some variation) frames to give the appearance of slow motion, but the effect
will be choppy and not fluid. There are programs available (Dynapel makes
one, as does Twixtor) that create "tweens," i.e. they calculate
in-between-frames in an effort to smooth out movement. They work better
than simply duplicating additional frames, but if you want a true, fluid
slow motion effect, the only way to do it is with a high-speed camera.
