slow-mo
Replay speed effect
Slow-mo is informal shorthand for slow motion—the technique of displaying action at a slower speed than it occurred.
Video replay uses slow-mo to analyze critical moments: Let's see that catch again in slow-mo.
The term works as noun or adjective: a slow-mo replay, watching it in slow-mo.
