<v Instructor>How did you do?</v>

2
00:00:05.237 --> 00:00:10.026
Did you get your footage to look from shaky to more stable?

3
00:00:10.026 --> 00:00:11.462
This is the best that I can do,

4
00:00:11.462 --> 00:00:14.714
and let me walk through the effects that I changed,

5
00:00:14.714 --> 00:00:16.437
or the settings that I changed.

6
00:00:16.437 --> 00:00:19.050
So I added the warp stabiliser effect, obviously,

7
00:00:19.050 --> 00:00:21.260
and I first checked out what it looked like

8
00:00:21.260 --> 00:00:25.394
with the standard settings that it uses.

9
00:00:25.394 --> 00:00:27.742
Smooth motion, fifty percent smoothness,

10
00:00:27.742 --> 00:00:32.557
sub space warp, and to be honest, it cropped way too far in

11
00:00:32.557 --> 00:00:34.946
and it still looked like jelly

12
00:00:34.946 --> 00:00:36.449
and I didn't like it at all.

13
00:00:36.449 --> 00:00:37.884
So I tried different things

14
00:00:37.884 --> 00:00:40.775
like change from subspace warp to position,

15
00:00:40.775 --> 00:00:44.601
scale rotation, I decreased the smoothness to five percent

16
00:00:44.601 --> 00:00:47.681
and it got better, but it didn't get amazing.

17
00:00:47.681 --> 00:00:50.420
So I went down into this advanced tab,

18
00:00:50.420 --> 00:00:52.108
something we haven't really dived into,

19
00:00:52.108 --> 00:00:54.222
and I did a detailed analysis

20
00:00:54.222 --> 00:00:56.037
just by clicking this check mark.

21
00:00:56.037 --> 00:00:58.892
Honestly, I don't really know what it's doing,

22
00:00:58.892 --> 00:01:01.072
it's just taking it a little bit more time

23
00:01:01.072 --> 00:01:03.690
and trying to do harder work to make it more smooth

24
00:01:03.690 --> 00:01:05.672
so honestly, I don't know why you wouldn't check that

25
00:01:05.672 --> 00:01:08.749
for all of your stabilizations unless it just works best

26
00:01:08.749 --> 00:01:11.427
or automatically without checking that.

27
00:01:11.427 --> 00:01:12.260
So I checked that,

28
00:01:12.260 --> 00:01:15.385
and then I also changed the rolling shutter ripple

29
00:01:15.385 --> 00:01:18.451
from automatic reduction to enhanced reduction.

30
00:01:18.451 --> 00:01:21.293
Rolling shutter is this weird motion you get

31
00:01:21.293 --> 00:01:24.198
when you are panning with the DSLR

32
00:01:24.198 --> 00:01:26.374
or even a mirrorless camera.

33
00:01:26.374 --> 00:01:28.297
It makes things look a little bit warped

34
00:01:28.297 --> 00:01:31.153
and the faster you pan, the worse it looks.

35
00:01:31.153 --> 00:01:32.762
So I think that helped a little bit.

36
00:01:32.762 --> 00:01:35.254
And then lastly, I think the thing that really helped

37
00:01:35.254 --> 00:01:38.959
was this crop less versus smooth more option.

38
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:41.365
It's standard at fifty percent,

39
00:01:41.365 --> 00:01:45.480
meaning that it's balancing cropping versus smoothness.

40
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:49.013
If you go more smoothness then it's going to crop even more.

41
00:01:49.013 --> 00:01:51.347
If you crop less, it's going to make it less smooth.

42
00:01:51.347 --> 00:01:54.412
So I tried more smoothness at 75 percent,

43
00:01:54.412 --> 00:01:56.199
and it worked a little bit better,

44
00:01:56.199 --> 00:01:58.532
but I think the sweet spot was actually cropping less,

45
00:01:58.532 --> 00:02:01.100
because I didn't want it to be zoomed in so far.

46
00:02:01.100 --> 00:02:04.154
So I changed this to 15 percent

47
00:02:04.154 --> 00:02:08.025
and that is how I got this motion to look like this,

48
00:02:08.025 --> 00:02:09.863
where you get a tiny bit

49
00:02:09.863 --> 00:02:11.903
of that little jelly look right there

50
00:02:11.903 --> 00:02:15.322
but it's so subtle, and if you go here,

51
00:02:15.322 --> 00:02:17.322
it focuses on the flower

52
00:02:18.279 --> 00:02:20.035
and then you cut away to another shot.

53
00:02:20.035 --> 00:02:23.053
No one's really going to notice that on a video

54
00:02:23.053 --> 00:02:25.456
that is online like that.

55
00:02:25.456 --> 00:02:27.551
Maybe you'll notice it more if you're watching it

56
00:02:27.551 --> 00:02:30.037
on a big screen and now that I'm telling it to you,

57
00:02:30.037 --> 00:02:32.676
you probably notice it, but I think this was the best

58
00:02:32.676 --> 00:02:33.839
that I could get it.

59
00:02:33.839 --> 00:02:36.943
If you had some other settings that you used

60
00:02:36.943 --> 00:02:38.640
and it came out better yourself,

61
00:02:38.640 --> 00:02:40.434
please let me know what settings you had

62
00:02:40.434 --> 00:02:42.499
and post your video to the course page.

63
00:02:42.499 --> 00:02:43.771
I would love to check it out.

64
00:02:43.771 --> 00:02:46.823
Thanks for watching and we'll see you in another lesson.
