This footage wasn’t shot by me, nor was the the camera operator instructed to change focus.
I’m a post-production guy first and foremost, so the cinematography/direction wasn’t my responsibility.
I understand your suggestions to re-shoot, but that sadly isn’t an option. Thank you for the contrast suggestion, I’ll try that, or worst case scenario track it frame by frame.

Thanks so much, this really solved my confusion using adobe PP and AE to render video.
