How to achieve a "Jerky" animation look

Hi everyone. Just getting started with Synfig with my first animation - a Monty Python type cutout animation. I’m just wondering, is it possible to get a somewhat “jerky” appearance to the animation, rather than a completely “smooth” look?

I think you should do that in post production (in a video editor or a vfx software)

Maybe a stroboscope layer?

Constant keyframes could possible work, maybe

You could set lower fps in properties, back then animations were using 12fps. You could also try out stroboscope layer
