Premier Pro Clips
I recently created a video from a moving suv of a residential neighborhood. After importing clips into Premier Pro, I realized that I had captured part of the window frame in several frames of the clips.
In Photoshop, there is a healing brush to correct/remove flaws from still images. Is there a similar tool in Premier Pro to remove the door frame from the clip? Thanks,
Greg Flory

Unfortunately…no, save for increasing the Scale of the clip til the door is out of frame, but you’ll take a hit in image quality. This may or may not be an issue, especially depending on the final output frame size.
Of course, if you also have After Effects, you could rotoscope out the door frame.

A quick and dirty way to deal with it would be to use Premiere to zoom in slightly, so the window frame is no longer shown.

Hi Greg,
It sounds like you might be new to Premiere so I’ll go a little further. Each clip by default has the “Motion” effect applied already – select the clip on the timeline and go to the Effects window and open Motion controls.
Use Scale to “zoom in” to remove problems at edge of image – note that if problem is only on one edge, you don’t have to zoom in as far – zoom a little, then move the image left or right (or up or down) with the X and Y controls.
If beginning with HD footage, the quality will hold up well zooming in as much as 120% or so, but if SD, quality takes a hit right away when scaling.

The “healing” function is pretty easy on one picture…if you would try something similar on a moving clip, I don’t think the results would be consistent enough to be smooth from frame to frame.
As has been offered, a zoom into the frame is likely the most efficient approach.
