I made a video out of a plane landing at night that I'm editing in Premiere Pro. For whatever reason, the crew didn't dim the cabin lights and our reflections are extremely visible. I have attached a screenshot of the video. Is there any decent way of removing the reflection, or at least making it a little better?
I have two videos with this problem. For the first one I went as far as exporting the entire video into JPEGS and used lightroom to batch process it in sections, but that was a lot of work since my brush filters keep having to moive around the area I want to preserve. Even though I highly doubt it, I'm hoping someone knows a trick that is easier than what I did above.

There is no filter in Premiere that will fix this issue.

That's what I was afraid of.

I can't view your image very well, but you might try Content Aware Fill in After Effects.

I'll check that out.

Hard to know how the footage you shot progressed but based on the image you posted - most of the bad reflection is in the top third of the frame. you could add a black solid on top of the image and create a soft edge mask (to the black solid) to darken just the top third of the image where most of the cabin reflection is visible.

I tried everything you guys sugested. You can't get blood from a stone. The best I did was exporting every frame into still images and working on them in batches of 60 (59.94fps), which was very tedious and is not worth the trouble.
