Looks great. Will there be a any built in video noise-reduction tools in either Premiere or After Effects?

In my experience QuickTime 7 is much fast than Motion in turning image sequences into a movie. But that was Motion 4, I haven’t tried Motion 5. It was the difference between 10 seconds of processing in QuickTime vs 10 minutes in Motion. Or the difference between a minute of processing in QuickTime and an hour of spinning beach ball in Motion, followed by a crash.

Thanks for the tip. I have now stabilized my footage in Motion 5, but have come up against an incredible bug on export. Even though I set Borders to ‘Zoom’ it exports the footage as if Borders were set to ‘Normal’. The footage plays back as expected in Motion 5, the RAM preview is as expected, even the little preview window before export looks ok. But the ProRes export from Motion does not match any of that. Same result whether I export directly or via Compressor.

This is a lot of work that I now can’t do anything with. Very frustrating.

Thanks for the response. I tried Lock & Load on the raw footage in FCP 7, but had many of the same problems. There is some motion within the frame which is confusing any dominant motion analysis. I am now trying to use Motion 5 on the raw footage, specifying a tracking areas. Unfortunately, it keeps crashing on me. If Lock & Load comes out for FCP X, I will be delighted.
