Thanks so much for the feedback and suggestions. Kevin, I’ll give the timewarp and revionsFX a shot. Ideally, I’d like to keep my subjects in focus while cheating the motion blur to get rid of the jutter. As far as the timewarp, there are two methods: pixel motion and frame mix. Do these methods have the same effect as the pixel motion and frame mix in the frame blend settings? I found that using the frame mix blend setting got rid of the jutter, but added way too much motion blur (given a choice between the two, I’d take the jutter).

Also, if you were to do the same shot (panning around a room at a relatively brisk pace), what frame rate and shutter speed would you use? (It’s worth noting that this video will primarily be for the web.)

Thanks again!

Thank you for your response. But, like I said, it was shot in 59.94. And to elaborate, I edited it in a Vegas timeline with a frame rate of 59.94. I rendered (lossless) from Vegas at 59.94 and dropped that into an After Effects comp at 59.94 for the final touches. So the frame rate was consistent up until the final render. My reason for shooting in 59.94 was to have a higher frame rate “resolution” to allow more wiggle room for shifts in velocity (to match up the composited footage).

I’ve tried straight renders, renders with pixel blend and renders with frame blend (which was super blurred) but with the same result. I understand that I’m loosing half the information when I drop down to 29.97 for the final render, but it seems like there should be a way to avoid the ghosting that results.

Awesome, thanks! That was simple enough. I thought I had tried every basic hot key, but I guess I was expecting the anchors to actually become highlighted once multiples were selected (which, as it turns out, is not the case).

Thanks again 🙂
