  stabilize while rotating around object

  Posted by Kainlane on April 20, 2007 at 4:37 pm

  Hi,
  I am trying to stabilize a shot using the Motion Tracker in AE Pro 7. The shot is where three people are standing in one spot, not moving at all, and the camera is low and rotates around them in an 180* arc. I am trying to stabilize the up/down motion primarily, but also the side to side. I want the group as a whole to stay in the center of the frame, but when I try to use the Stabilize Motion it gradually moves them far to one side of the frame as the camera rotates around. It stabilizes it great, but the problem with it floating to the side is that I have to scale up so far to remove the black area, the video gets blown out and blotchy. Does anyone have any suggestions/tips/tricks on how to make this work better?
  Cheers,
  C

  Thanks Dave,
  That was an excellent idea. It isn’t perfect, but it is definitely better.
  Cheers
