Flashing Light Problem
Hey, so I don’t know if Premiere Pro or After Effects can help me with this.
Last night I filmed a live band. What i didn’t realize was that the instant Photo Booth to the right of the camera was going to flash my lines every time a picture was taken. So I have this white flashes coming across the screen. On top of that, because it’s a cheaper camera, everything is auto and the iris closes a bit and i have a few frames where it’s darker before it resets to normal.
I know that with photo’s you can use predictive magic to remove people from the background and then it just “fills in” the empty space. Is there anything that will do that here to take out the flashes?

Hey Jonathan,
Yes, that hurts the eyes.
Difficult as most automated software packages are more about smothness of the video, than removing/fixing frames.
You could try Boris FX Continuum, or Sapphire:

Mocha is a nother possibility, but is going to take you too long…Revision also have Deflicker:
https://revisionfx.com/products/deflicker/If the flash apperas in the same region of picture everytime, you could do a mask and reduce power of the white.
But if you are at that level. you might be better off doubling the frame before and, and then use deflicker tool or similar to “smooth out the video”. Although, at that quality, the fans are more likely to want to enjoy the music, than looking for video imperfections (those that are not blinding you, that is).Hope that this helps?
