Question

How to stabilize this video using AE

Hi all!

I have this drone hyperlapse shot, during the first seconds there is a visible perspective change of the images, so I have the buildings that goes up and down.

You can clearly see this movement in the video I attach, which I tried to stabilize it with warp stabilizer using both Subspace warp and perspective.

Also there is a bit of left to right (and viceversa movement)

How can I stabilize it to get a smooth result?

 

Thanks!

    Hi,
    Thanks for the post. With a drone hyperlapse, some of the movement you're seeing may be caused by actual perspective and parallax changes as the drone moves through the scene. Warp Stabilizer may have difficulty removing that completely, especially around buildings.


    As a test, try Warp Stabilizer with Method set to Position, Scale, Rotation rather than Subspace Warp or Perspective. The more complex methods can sometimes introduce additional distortion when there are strong perspective changes. I hope a community member, like ​@Warren Heaton, might chime in.

    Hope that helps.
