Izzy Video 096 – Smooth Cam

izzyvideo96

If you’re like me, you might find yourself frequently shooting video spontaneously, without a tripod. Sometimes my footage doesn’t turn out that bad, and other times I end up with shaky footage that could make a viewer seasick. This shaky video can be a real problem, whether for professional productions or family movies.

In this installment of Izzy Video, I demonstrate a powerful tool in Final Cut Pro called “Smooth Cam”. This tool is almost magical in the way that it transforms shaky footage into smooth footage. It’s not always perfect, but if you haven’t seen it before, it just might make you say, “Wow!”

It made me say “Wow” when I first saw it.

You can watch the video to see how to use Smooth Cam, and I also spend a little time showing how it works behind the scenes.
