Fluorescent lights & Flickering Video

[James Harris]

Shot some footages with my Fuji XT1 @60fps and in some sequences I git some flickering apparently caused fluorescent lights on the ground.

Is there anyway to fix this in post?

Hi, in general terms: roughly mask out all the characters and cars moving in the shot then use the inbuilt Camera Tracker (make sure the signs are always visible). You should be able to track the shot up until the signs go off screen. Then create a camera and solid(s) over the signs – replace solids with still images of the signs created in Photoshop.

You might try RE Vision effects. De Flicker High Speed. Try the demo. I tried it on your footage and it worked great.

thanks for the info, will try that method (I have actually more complex scenes with this issue).

Aside from that I have alot of night shots with alot of noise, what’s the best way to get rid of the noise in AA?

Flicker Free is amazing: https://www.digitalanarchy.com/Flicker/main.html

For Noise Reduction try Neat Video or Red Giants noise reduction tool.
