How To Stabilize Motion In After Effects

In this tutorial we explore how to use the stabilize motion tracker in after effects. This effect is sometimes called the Sherlock Holmes effect as it was featured in the film "Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows" featuring Robert Downey Jr.. This effect creates the idea that the camera is in perfect sync with a particular object in your scene, potentially the most powerful way to use this effect would be to lock on to a character's eyes. This creates an effect that's also reminiscent of David Fincher styled camera work.

Great tutorial! I still have a lot of movement going on in the background. Any recommendations on those very shallow depth of field shots? Unfortunately, I didn't have access to my stabilizer at this particular time :(

Maybe if you tried a warp stabilizer technique and then pre-composed and tried the stabilize motion on top of that? Sorry to hear it’s giving you trouble

Great video as always. A tip when trying to achieve this effect is to have the footage as steady as possible before attempting to track the motion, by using a static camera or a gimbal. Background motion which you usually don't pay attention to when the subject is moving over the shot becomes twice as noticeable when the subject is then locked in place.
Jordan!!! I love your tutorials, buddy. I just used this exact technique on a project featuring a jogger. Thank you so much. Subscribed.

You can use the motion tile effect, with mirror edges enabled, to extend the margins by reflecting the video. It's really useful for this kinda stuff
I came here after watching the movie UPGRADE i would highly recommend it has the effect in many fight scenes and it looks dope

is it possible to do this with adding a pin for a pivot point ? what i mean if if for example i record a video with a drone of a round about in top down, i want to have the car tracked and the video rotating around the center of the round about ? Possible i guess but how :)
Do you know why it's not possible to remap the speed with the Motion Tracking ? Any advise on how to do it ?

instead of scaling up to get rid of your black space, add motion tile and change output height and width to 400, then check reflect edges

Hi Adrien! I actually just literally upgraded my system a few days ago! But the computer used in this example was as follows Intel i7-5820k GTX 980Ti 32GB of ram Multiple SSDs holding the project files, scratch files, and footage separately for maximum speed The new system is I9-9900K RTX 2070 Super 64gb of ram And the same ssd configuration We actually have a video all about system requirements and in that video is included at the end potentially the best way of setting up your drives for maximum efficiency and therefore speed. I’ll link to that video as well 😄 And stay tuned! Because we have a video coming out hopefully soon detailing the best workstation possible for Ae (spoiler it’s pretty much that new 9900k system)

It's "S" or you can drop it with the arrrows and go to transform (I don't know if that's clear)
Would this look bad with 1080p footage or noticeably degraded in quality?
@MotionArrayTutorials
4 жыл бұрын
It depends on how much the footage was zoomed in when everything is applied. If it ended up pushing in as close as in our example then yes 1080p would show a noticeable degrade. However, if the effect is powerful enough and enjoyable enough to look at, it might not be a problem. All depends on the individual scenario
great tutorial, for some reason when i hit analyze forward nothing happens
By the way, this motion stabilization could be more automated. It's actually pretty easy maths when you have to calculate the best placement so you won't get out of the frame. (Sorry if my English don't make sense)

3:40 - hey man, did you ever figure out any alternate solution that scaling up? Something like 'reduce canvas style' instead? Scaling up ruins the quality with already low res videos.

You can record in high resolution like 4k and scale it down to 1080 like David Fincher he shot 6k footage and then he framed the shot to 5k If your camera doesn't support the high resolution you can buy used canon eos m for 100$ dollars with hack software (magic lantern) you can shot 5.6k and then you can frame the shot to 4k without losing quality

Hi Juan, that one could be a variety of different methods potentially. The first place we might think to start would be by key framing the puppet tool with a repetitive motion. But some experimentation would be needed. We can add it to our growing list and let you know if we end up being able to make a video on it. Thanks for the suggestion!
SO...we don't use the NULL layer for this? Then when do we use the NULL layer for when stabilizing this scene?
