  • MotionBlur-settings suitable for HD?

    Posted by David Gudelius on December 9, 2008 at 2:18 pm

    Hi there,

    I think I messed up my default values for the motionblur settings in the extended composition options (AE CS3). 🙁

    Can anyone tell me the values he or she uses for HD (1080i50)?

    Thank you very much in advance!

    Honestly it varies slightly shot by shot regardless if it’s HD or Film. The settings I have right now should be in the realm of normality, and they are.

    Shutter Angle 180
    Shutter Phase -90
    Sample per frame 16
    Adaptive sample limit 128

    When tweaking them think of it like Shutter angle is the legnth or amount of motion blur, and shutter phase adjusts how much the blur is ahead or behind the moving object.

    Anyone feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

    Hey Andrew, thank you very much!
    My setting were:

    – Shutter Angle 180
    – Shutter Phase 6
    – Sample per frame 16
    – Adaptive sample limit 0

    Where the hell ever these settings came from; I definately know that I didn’t change anything them by hand.

    Anyway, thanks again for the hints!
