WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.553 --> 00:00:02.154 In this tutorial, we're going to learn 2 00:00:02.154 --> 00:00:06.321 how to stabilise footage using the Warp Stabiliser effect. 3 00:00:07.637 --> 00:00:10.356 So go ahead and find the Warp Stabiliser effects, 4 00:00:10.356 --> 00:00:12.954 search for warp in your effects bin. 5 00:00:12.954 --> 00:00:15.238 Here are two shots from hiking 6 00:00:15.238 --> 00:00:16.795 in southern California. 7 00:00:16.795 --> 00:00:21.294 The first is unstabilized, the second is stabilised. 8 00:00:21.294 --> 00:00:23.029 You can see that the first there is 9 00:00:23.029 --> 00:00:24.440 a little bit of camera shake. 10 00:00:24.440 --> 00:00:26.905 The second, nice and smooth. 11 00:00:26.905 --> 00:00:29.392 It almost looks like a nice tilt down. 12 00:00:29.392 --> 00:00:32.559 With this shot, it's a lot more shaky, 13 00:00:34.153 --> 00:00:37.460 and the stabiliser tries to do a better job 14 00:00:37.460 --> 00:00:38.946 of stabilising it. 15 00:00:38.946 --> 00:00:41.421 And we're going to dive into the details 16 00:00:41.421 --> 00:00:45.365 of the effect to see how it's actually working. 17 00:00:45.365 --> 00:00:48.126 So first with this first one, let's just delete 18 00:00:48.126 --> 00:00:52.311 the Warp Stabiliser and you can see without 19 00:00:52.311 --> 00:00:54.268 and then when we add Warp Stabiliser, 20 00:00:54.268 --> 00:00:57.949 it analyses it, it sees what's going on, 21 00:00:57.949 --> 00:01:01.297 it tries to see what's happening with the camera shake 22 00:01:01.297 --> 00:01:03.069 and then it will apply it. 23 00:01:03.069 --> 00:01:06.191 And this one automatically does a decent job. 24 00:01:06.191 --> 00:01:08.945 We have the settings that are standard 25 00:01:08.945 --> 00:01:10.188 with the effect. 26 00:01:10.188 --> 00:01:13.293 We want a smooth motion shot. 27 00:01:13.293 --> 00:01:16.045 If you want, we can do no motion 28 00:01:16.045 --> 00:01:19.591 and what it's really going to be doing then is 29 00:01:19.591 --> 00:01:22.839 zooming in and cropping just a bit. 30 00:01:22.839 --> 00:01:26.098 So see, look at it, literally like no motion at all. 31 00:01:26.098 --> 00:01:30.042 There's a little bit of a sort of perspective change 32 00:01:30.042 --> 00:01:32.001 in the beginning. 33 00:01:32.001 --> 00:01:36.969 But I like the smooth motion a lot better for this shot. 34 00:01:36.969 --> 00:01:39.471 It doesn't look bad at all. 35 00:01:39.471 --> 00:01:43.466 The smoothness, you can change it from the 50% 36 00:01:43.466 --> 00:01:45.963 to a little bit lower so if you want 37 00:01:45.963 --> 00:01:47.902 a little bit more of that motion 38 00:01:47.902 --> 00:01:50.295 or if you want less motion, that's getting closer 39 00:01:50.295 --> 00:01:53.012 to the no motion option. 40 00:01:53.012 --> 00:01:55.740 And then the method we have Subspace Warp, 41 00:01:55.740 --> 00:01:59.081 Position, Position, Scale or Perspective. 42 00:01:59.081 --> 00:02:03.362 Position is just going to move the frame around 43 00:02:03.362 --> 00:02:06.141 to try to get it to be stable. 44 00:02:06.141 --> 00:02:08.988 Position, Scale and Rotation will not only 45 00:02:08.988 --> 00:02:11.223 just move it around left, right, up and down, 46 00:02:11.223 --> 00:02:15.780 but it will rotate and it will scale up if necessary. 47 00:02:15.780 --> 00:02:18.297 And with perspective, this will do 48 00:02:18.297 --> 00:02:21.953 a relatively good job because it's actually looking 49 00:02:21.953 --> 00:02:25.697 at your frame and it's kind of as if the camera angle was 50 00:02:25.697 --> 00:02:29.032 turning left, right, up or down to get 51 00:02:29.032 --> 00:02:30.666 a different angle. 52 00:02:30.666 --> 00:02:33.417 And that does a really good job for this shot. 53 00:02:33.417 --> 00:02:36.312 Subspace Warp kind of combines everything 54 00:02:36.312 --> 00:02:38.786 and it will actually bend your image 55 00:02:38.786 --> 00:02:43.095 so that it looks stable or tries to make it look stable. 56 00:02:43.095 --> 00:02:46.096 Let's jump over to the hiking three clip. 57 00:02:46.096 --> 00:02:49.020 So without it, very unstable. 58 00:02:49.020 --> 00:02:52.091 With the effect, stable but you get 59 00:02:52.091 --> 00:02:53.854 this gelatin effect. 60 00:02:53.854 --> 00:02:55.647 And I'm going to tell you up front 61 00:02:55.647 --> 00:02:59.158 that this shot it's just too shaky to have 62 00:02:59.158 --> 00:03:02.741 a good stabilisation in Adobe Premiere Pro. 63 00:03:03.973 --> 00:03:05.607 You can take it into After Effects 64 00:03:05.607 --> 00:03:07.805 or other programmes and get it to be stable, 65 00:03:07.805 --> 00:03:11.506 but in Adobe Premiere Pro there are some limitations. 66 00:03:11.506 --> 00:03:14.736 What we can try to do is change the Subspace Warp 67 00:03:14.736 --> 00:03:16.224 or change the smoothness. 68 00:03:16.224 --> 00:03:18.718 Maybe we don't want it as smooth. 69 00:03:18.718 --> 00:03:21.547 It's kind of counterintuitive when you're trying 70 00:03:21.547 --> 00:03:22.795 to make it more smooth. 71 00:03:22.795 --> 00:03:26.755 You think oh I want to make it 90% or 80%, 72 00:03:26.755 --> 00:03:29.648 but sometimes you have to decrease the stabilisation 73 00:03:29.648 --> 00:03:32.278 so that you don't get that gelatin effect. 74 00:03:32.278 --> 00:03:35.158 So at 10% you still get a little bit 75 00:03:35.158 --> 00:03:39.377 of that gelatin effect, but it's better than without it. 76 00:03:39.377 --> 00:03:41.670 So without it, super shaky. 77 00:03:41.670 --> 00:03:45.889 With it, I would say a little bit better. 78 00:03:45.889 --> 00:03:49.664 To see what's going on, let's change the borders framing 79 00:03:49.664 --> 00:03:53.390 from Stabilise Crop and Auto Scale to Stabilise Only. 80 00:03:53.390 --> 00:03:55.415 Look at what's happening. 81 00:03:55.415 --> 00:03:58.580 This frame is bouncing around, it's going crazy. 82 00:03:58.580 --> 00:04:00.472 You see the edges, it's rotating, 83 00:04:00.472 --> 00:04:02.975 it's scaling up or down, well it's not scaling up 84 00:04:02.975 --> 00:04:04.713 or down right now but it's rotating, 85 00:04:04.713 --> 00:04:07.022 it's moving around. 86 00:04:07.022 --> 00:04:09.277 If we want we can do a Stabilise Crop 87 00:04:09.277 --> 00:04:13.444 which just crops it in and then the Stabilise Crop 88 00:04:14.341 --> 00:04:19.209 and Auto Scale will actually zoom in to the footage 89 00:04:19.209 --> 00:04:21.209 to fill the frame, okay. 90 00:04:22.986 --> 00:04:25.224 So these are a few options to play around with 91 00:04:25.224 --> 00:04:27.989 if you have a shot and you're trying to get it stable, 92 00:04:27.989 --> 00:04:30.605 I would definitely play with the smoothness 93 00:04:30.605 --> 00:04:34.553 going lower or higher and then the method. 94 00:04:34.553 --> 00:04:37.305 Sometimes Subspace Warp works better 95 00:04:37.305 --> 00:04:40.193 but sometimes just Perspective might look better. 96 00:04:40.193 --> 00:04:42.086 Then you don't get as much of that 97 00:04:42.086 --> 00:04:44.034 sort of jello effect. 98 00:04:44.034 --> 00:04:47.115 It's a little bit shaky still but less of that jello. 99 00:04:47.115 --> 00:04:51.438 So that's the Warp Stabiliser in Adobe Premiere Pro. 100 00:04:51.438 --> 00:04:52.585 It's a great tool. 101 00:04:52.585 --> 00:04:55.428 I add it to a lot of clips, even stable clips 102 00:04:55.428 --> 00:04:57.680 that I use with my monopod on 103 00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:01.603 because there are some of those minute hand motions 104 00:05:01.603 --> 00:05:03.011 that you don't think you're making 105 00:05:03.011 --> 00:05:05.511 but then when you're watching your video 106 00:05:05.511 --> 00:05:09.136 on a big screen or just in high resolution, 107 00:05:09.136 --> 00:05:11.858 you will see those little minute motions 108 00:05:11.858 --> 00:05:13.826 and adding Warp Stabiliser really helps. 109 00:05:13.826 --> 00:05:17.031 And also for drone footage, really good to add 110 00:05:17.031 --> 00:05:18.800 Warp Stabiliser to it. 111 00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:20.133 Thanks for watching and we'll see you 112 00:05:20.133 --> 00:05:21.255 in another lesson.
