OK, update on the jittering. Colorama made things better but not well. What did is the plug-in Denoiser (Trapcode/Red Giant). Amazing results for a low price. Smooths out camera jitter beautifully. (My effects were greatly worsening jitter already present in the footage).

I am actually finding a different way to create a similar effect to what I was going for using Colorama instead. Much smoother. I think I solved my problem… thanks everyone for pitching in.

I have discovered that the Exposure effect is meant to work with 32bit only. I am using it with 8bit video, which is why it is producing the “bitty” effect. It’s cool looking as a still but I was looking for more control over it in video. Maybe I should try Colorama instead.

Stills from this footage treated the same way are fine. It’s actually how I get around some of the issues for non-moving backgrounds. But on the live-action areas, it’s the frame-to-frame action that causes the color pixel jitter (the pixels jump from frame to frame). I realize I am torturing the footage with what I am doing to it, but was hoping for some effect or that counteracts that…

It was shot 1920×1080 on a Canon Mark 4. The codec is Apple ProRes.

Thanks so much for the quick response! I’m gonna play around with these options.

November 16, 2009 at 8:30 pm in reply to: Imported Illustrator layer gets chopped…

I am having the same problem. Several layers imported just fine from Ai. I duplicated one of them (a distorted text layer, made into outlines again), changed the color, and that layer is getting cut off in AE. The original layer I duplicated from is working fine (also a distorted text layer). Very frustrating. Has anyone found a solution yet? Does the most recent version of CS4 fix this? Thanks, vanOs

Thanks for the response, Scott. I did actually end up getting a Dell, the Apple was just too much. I got the new 2409, which is a 16:9 monitor. I like it so far although I haven’t done a good calibration yet, only with the monitor buttons. Otherwise, great picture.
