What to do to eliminate Flickering luma levels
Posted by Soose Triolo on April 15, 2011 at 7:46 pmI’ve got some footage shot late evening with a shift tilt lens and is time lapsed. The problem is that the luminance levels in the sky flicker and it’s distracting. Does anyone have thoughts on how to eliminate or at least minimize the flickering?

April 19, 2011 at 1:34 pmColor Stabilizer worked well for the evening footage, combined with Echo on areas that had no movement, On another clip, shot same Shift Tilt in daylight, time lapse, with moving objects and shadows, it’s proving to a bit more complicated. I still have hope, but am going to spend some time tweaking the effect, finding the right white and black points. Any other suggestions are welcomed.

You might get better results splitting the layer around some of the moving objects and shadows, so that you can pick a black and white point for a smaller range of frames at a time, instead of trying to find a single point that’s good across the entire clip.

You could try the Auto levels effect [link].
