Canon 5d Strobe Light artifact: how to fix?
https://vimeo.com/26735099
password: cowHere is a link to some footage I shot at an underground party. I would like to create just a short segment of the dance floor, and I’m looking to stylize it since the strobe lights wreaked havoc on my 5d’s CMOS sensor.
Any editors out there have any ideas? I’m in FCP X but can work with this segment in any program really.

You can try some sort of frame blending like AVERAGE. it will smeat the images slightly.
From what I can tell, it’s not on every frame, so maybe you just edit the clean ones together. It will have that studdery feel, but then again, that is what the strobe light gives you.
You can repeat some of the frames to fill in the gaps between bad frames… might be a cool look.

Or cut in a frame of white over the top of the offending frames.
Boy, have you got to love that cool CMOS technology 😉

Maybe use one of the “TV” filters. The scan lines might make the whole thing look like it’s part of the effect.
