It can make your footage look less polished, sparkle, and glossy. Generally, the shaky videos are due to our unintended movements during shooting. But if it looks a little more shrill or jerky, we need to smooth it out! There are many reasons you might want to fix your irregular or shaky videos. Free tools on internet all have masking, but premiums do not bother to serve us better.05 How to Stabilize Shaky Footage Without Using Warp Stabilizer? Part 1: Why Should You Stabilize Your Video?īeing an artistic or aesthetic choice, we might love a slightly shaken photo or video. I would like that would be implemented in the tool itself. It is dirty and fiddly but that is how I did it well before Warp was added to premiere with other tools. If You need to change something and re-process it, just enable the underlying effect again. It will be clean image again and properly done. When done, just go back to original clip inside Nested and tick masking effect off (disable png, or whatever). It will be served with image that is masked out. Then you make Nested sequence out of this clip and put stabilizer on that. Whatever suits you and track with a shot. It can be title, power window, crop, or draw a mask in newer Premieres. So what I do is put some effect on clip that masks moving parts. But you cannot do that on same clip, since Premiere will serve naked frame to the stabilizer tool. What I do is masking out unwanted object. I use long workaround in Premiere and it works for all sorts of stabilizers not only for warp (I use 3rd party). If warp stabilizer effect doesn't have this feature, how can I help the effect to get it right if I have to shoot the time lapse again? For instance, would it help to include a ruler in the photos as a reference of a stable object (the ruler then being cropped after applying warp stabilizer effect)?

How do I tell warp stabilizer what zone should not move in the final video? That creates a very weird, crazy looking scene, but aside its artistic value, I want warp stabilizer to focus on getting the background still, while letting the foreground object move because of the wind. However, warp stabilizer imagines that it's the object which should be stabilized, meaning that once the effect is applied, it's the background which is now moving relative to the object. What should be still, on the other hand, is the background: a field and some trees which are far enough from the camera for the wind effects to be noticeable. In one scene, the primary object-a flower-is shaking under the effect of the wind: this movement is expected. In order to remove the shake, I'm using warp stabilizer effect in Adobe Premiere Pro, which works very well.

Due to the specific circumstances, the camera is shaking a little when taking the time lapse photos, which is slightly noticeable in the video.
