1. In a digital medium digital image synthesis environment, a method implemented by a computing device, the method comprising:
receiving, by the computing device, a first digital image and a first optical flow describing pixel movement of the first digital image to a second digital image;
constructing, by the computing device, a first splat metric defining a weighted map of respective pixels of the first digital image based on a parameter;
producing, by the computing device, a first warped optical flow corresponding to an interpolation instant by forward warping the first optical flow based on the first splat metric;
forming, by the computing device, a first warped digital image corresponding to the interpolation instant by backward warping the first digital image based on the first warped optical flow; and
constructing, by the computing device, a first merge metric defining a weighted map of respective pixels of the first warped digital image.
