  • Best way to fix keystoning (Premiere of After Effects)

    Posted by Neil Myers on October 23, 2010 at 10:20 pm

    I have a project where we have footage shot at a tradeshow of a large LCD display. We want to integrate that footage with the footage of the presenter making his demo. But, the image is keystoned (skewed). What is the best way quality-wise to fix this? Premiere Pro or After Effects? We have CS5 Master Suite and we’re proficient at both. I know how to do it in both cased, but I am trying to figure out which will do a better job in terms of final render quality.

    Anyone have experience with this?

    Thanks!

    Neil,

    After Effects will do a much better job.

    I would use Corner pin.

    *edit: On second thought, you could try Corner Pin in Pr, I haven’t tried it for years, but I’m pretty sure that you’ll get a cleaner result in After Effects, it’s also easier to setup. I guess it depends on how much footage you are dealing with.

    I’ll use After Effects and see. One advantage as I thought about is that if I wanted to PIP the Premiere corner pin doesn’t really work, whereas it would if I fixed first in After Effects and then just PIP-ed the corrected footage.
