  • Good effect to go over shaky video?

    What’s a good effect to apply to a shaky handheld scene? The scene is supposed to represent first person perspective of someone running down a street. I know I could use motion stabilizer to make it less annoying, but is there an effect that would make make it seem more artistic without trying to clean it up? thanks!

    BTW: This is for a music video, I was thinking some kind of distortion?

    How about the Trails effect? That should work really well on shaky footage.

    For POV shot, it’s common to exaggerate a wide angle, so a little fish eye effect could help.

    Tried the trails effect, Im using it in one spot, doesn’t work for the others. Good idea, thanks!

    You’re welcome. Glad that worked for you at least in one spot.
