deflicker timelapse options

Regardless of how I shoot a timelapse, full manual mode, slow shutter etc, there is always some sort of flicker. I recently purchased a plugin called Flicker Free and it works well, it's just PAINFULLY slow. Does anyone know a good plugin or way in Adobe Premiere Pro to remove flicker in timelapse sequences. The Anti-Flicker filter 0-1 option in the effects panel for each clip does nothing, it's no help at all. Is there some anti flicker tool available for time lapse sequences that renders faster than the one I bought?

It's really slowing my work down. I have a fast 10 core system with 32 GB of Ram, its fast for most video editing.

Hi Roger,

Are you deflickering RAW or JPEG? What resolution? If you're deflickering JPEG, Flicker Free really shouldn't be _that_ slow. If it's RAW, it's partially Premiere having to load the RAW images. Feel free to reach out to us at cs@digitalanarchy.com, we'd be interested to know what settings you're using and if we can help you speed it up.

We're also working on a new version of Flicker Free that will be faster. Should be released by NAB (April). Drop us a line and we'll add you to the beta when it's available.

cheers,

Jim

I am using JPEG images, 6000x4000 from a Nikon DX camera. Exported to mp4 files at 3840x2160 @ 80 Mbps. Even rendering the timeline takes forever. Flicker free is very very slow but seems to work well.

I just shot a timelapse today, Flicker Free is not that slow to render in the timeline but it's certainly slow rendering to the final output file at 3840x2160. I notice when I render in the timeline using render in to out in the sequence menu it uses all cores, but when I render to the final output file it seems to be limited to using just one or two cores of the CPU.

Ill try these thanks. TLDF is attractive since it's so inexpensive.

I don't know if your budget allows it, but I have found this 3rd party application, Panolapse, very good for creating/preparing smooth time-lapses for use in videos. It includes deflickering. Not sure if they have a trail offer.

Use this in AE and export as intermediate file.

TLDF (Timelapse Deflicker) uses multicores to deflicker timelapse. It loads RAW or JPEGs (much faster than RAW) and generate ProRes 422 or 4444. It is standalone app though.
