  Image Stabilizer with Go Pro Camera

  Posted by Nels Mclaughlin on August 4, 2011 at 6:39 pm

  I’ve got a co-worker who does a lot of shooting using a Go Pro Hero HD with a chest mount and it’s my job to make his footage look the best it possibly can. I’ve checked out the image stabilizers in FCP 7.0.3 and Motion 4.0.3, but they take forever and I don’t really feel like those are my best options for eliminating the shake that comes with what he does.

  Are there are specific plugins for Motion or FCP (or AE 8.0.2 if need be) that would be a better bet with Go Pro footage?

  I really like the Mercalli stabilizer by Pro DAD. https://www.prodad.com/home/products/videostabilizing/300391667,l-us.xhtml

  Thanks Grant! I’m checking out the free trial now and going through the testing phase. I do like how many different controls there are for everything – I’m just a little new to the whole image stabilization thing, so it may take me some time to perfect it for my needs (think a mix of basketball and gymnastics), but thanks for the recommendation!
