[Maya] How would I replicate this turntable animation playback speed?

Hey, I'm trying to replicate the playback speed of this turntable below - starting off normal speed and then slowing down to a stop at the end.   I have a 360 degree turntable of 50 frames (like the one below) set to 6fps, but on playback it just goes on a very fast loop and was looking to have a similar playback to one below.  Was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction go how to do this in Maya?

Set a longer time for each frame in Photoshop.

Hi @oglu , ahh ok, I was planning on just rendering 50 frames as .tga files and then making a gif in photoshop.  In Photoshop, would I be able to slow the frames down as the turntable reaches a stop, just like in the gif above? Or is that something that can only be done in Maya? Sorry I'm a bit confused

I think the more direct option would be to, In maya, adjust the curves for the speed of the rotation to ease in and ease out.

Ahhh Thanks so much @BagelHero

Ease in and ease out wont do anything to the time. It does just gets faster and slower. 50 Frames are 50 Frames.

He was asking about the slowdown "effect" though, I think. Which is the ease in and ease out. Yes if you want it to go slower in general, you need more frames/to hold some frames.

I didn't want to render more than 50 frames and in the gif I uploaded the artist only used 50 so its possible to get good results... I hope lol.  I rendering 50 frames and have edited the graph curve to achieve that nice slow down motion as it reaches the last 10 frames or so.  I think that artist might have set a longer time for each frame in the timeline in Photoshop (like Oglu said) rather than render 100 or more frames so I might try that
