25th shot effect
Explanation:
The question is about so-called 25th shot effect. As well known, human eye does not notice the turn from one shot to another in a film or in a TV programme, if 24 shots replace each other within one second. The 25th shot cannot be caught, though it possesses a powerful suggestive effect. Using it is strictly forbidden in Russia with the Law about Mass Media and with the Law about Advertising.

The 25th-shot effect seems to have been widely spread in Russian TV. It is mainly used in commercial reels. Invisible insets were found also in foreign production. That was a new device invented in Institute of Television and Radio by the order of the Press Ministry, which allowed to the Ministry of Anti-Monopoly Politics to make the statement. The device is called “experimental detector of hidden insets” (ODSV-1). At the moment, some tests are being carried out.
The idea of 25th-shot effect appeared about 40 years ago. A.Hamburg in his work The Secret of 25-th shot in details tells about it:

subliminal advertising


Explanation:
As Olga points out this a Russian-invented camera strategem which relies on the fact that the human eye can only register up to 24 image changes per second. The 25th will not be recognised at a conscious level.

You could use a literal translation - 25th shot effect, but it won't be widely understood and you should show it in inverted commas and include some sort of translator's note.

Alternatively you could just use the term subliminal advertising - which is what this is all about.

What I would probably suggest is the following:

"the 25th shot effect"* and then include a footnote: a Russian invented form of subliminal advertising that relies on the human eye's ability to process no more than 24 images per second.

Long-winded perhaps but it would tell the story.

How about this for a solution then:

\"As we don\'t have the option of the so-called \"25th frame effect\"*, we\'ll just have to make use of the 24 frames that we do have.\"

*footnote as described above.

TELEVISION CHANNELS ACCUSED OF MANIPULATING THE SUBCONSCIOUS

Deputy Media Minister Valerii Sirozhenko accused Russian television channels of using the so-called "25th frame," a production technique that inserts momentary advertisements into programming in an attempt to create subconscious impression, "Kommersant-Daily" reported on 25 June. The theory behind the technique holds that the human mind can only process 24 frames per second, while an extra frame can create an impression without being consciously noticed.
