  • Reducing Flicker from lighting

    Posted by Amber Sanders on October 3, 2015 at 1:50 pm

    Hi there,

    I have some footage that was filmed 25p 1/50 shutter on a canon 5d mkiii in a 50z area. I think the lighting was slightly out of the 50hz range so i have lighting flicker on the footage.

    I have read about using Denoiser to reduce it, but am having no success, can any one help me with the settings?

    I have Red Ginat Denoiser II installed

    Thank you!

    Put another copy of the clip in superimpose at 50% slip it by one frame.

    Hi Massimo, thanks for your message

    sorry just so i understand clearly

    Do you mean so that the superimosed clip is one frame ahead/behind?

    I got that to work, but it produces a lot of motion blur?

    does the flicker affect the whole image?

    i made a deflicker a while back.

    if you enable the text layer and scroll Gamma Clamp at gamma*10 so that the text box reads 25, it will
    fix timelapse and old movie’s flicker.

    these work in premiere:

    Yes. This method introduce a little bit of motion blur, but you I think this is better than flickering.

    It does, annoyingly i would not be able to mask it.

    I have just tried FlickerFree by Digital Anarchy and i really seems to have don’t the job, although just using the trial at the moment, annoyingly buying it takes a chunk out of my rate for the job, but it might be the best option.

    Thanks Chris i will try those now

    I recently had the same issue: different light frequency.
    Used DE:Flicker from DE:Vision.
    Not a cheap solution but it fixed my problem.

    This is an old thread. However, perhaps this screencast could help someone in the future.

    I usually use FCP X or PrPro but had to use Avid a few months back at a client’s place. There is a flicker removal filter in MC that works really well. AM not sure if it was a third party plugin or a built in filter though.
