Blurriness associated with Motion and Color Correction effects..
Hi all…
One thing I’ve noticed when changing the position of a clip using the Motion pulldown in the Effect Controls palate is that the image is usually quite blurry. I sometimes need to move the entire image if the shot is not dead-center. I crop the top & bottom of my videos with a black letterbox-style crop matte by about 10% so I can move the image if necessary. For example; If I haven’t left enough headroom in a shot, I can move it down slightly by changing the vertical position from 240 to 270.
I’ve also noticed some blurriness after applying the Color Corrector effect and making adjustments. Is there something I’m doing wrong or a setting I’ve missed that might correct this? I’ve also noticed the image is somewhat blurry after reducing the speed of a clip to produce a slow-motion effect. I think this is because the missing frames have been interpolated. I usually apply a sharpen effect to offset this, but wondered if there is a better way that is less blurry.

I have the same problems. Sometimes it does make a difference if you use different positions at least by one pixel. Example: insatead of 240 try 241. Also I have had some success using the Transform plug in effect instead of the fixed motion control and change the postion within that effect. It is in with the rest of the effect folders.

I’ll try the transform effect next time.
Thank you…

What i find is that if you move to an odd number of pixle you sometimes get blury video i move it to an even number and that normally fixes it.

It appears you and TClark were correct; Moving it to an even number produces a clearer image. It never occured to me that this would be an issue. I just assumed Premiere would render it correctly, regardless of the position. Perhaps it wouldn’t be an issue if the format was 30p instead of 60i?
Thanks for the help.
