Hello everyone
I'm not really new to film making, just new to the forums 😛
But i recently realised that my images shake... alot.
You can't tell with a small screen but when i burned one of my movies onto a dvd and played it on my plasma tv... WoW
I know I'm not shaking the camera cos it's always on a tripod.
Acutrally now that i think of it, it's the times when i putit on the tripod it shakes, when i use my hand to pan it it hardly shakes.
Is this a problem with my tripod or camera?
I got a really cheap camera and it makes horrible background sounds..
It's tape, so the quility is acturally quite good.
Is there a way to stop the shaking in premire pro or after effects?
And is there also a way for taking out the horrible background noise my camera is setting out? 😛
Hello,
The camera shaking on the tripod could be caused by people walking by, if it's not that then I don't know why. If the shaking is tiny and barely noticeable it probably is impossible to take away in post, of course you could try tracking it and then stabilizing the footage, but I don't know if Premiere can do that.
The "horrible background noise" is just because of the crappy mic on your camera.

The digital compositing software SHAKE says that it can remove some shakiness from shots. The software is expensive though.

Your tripod is most likely the problem. If your tripod head is not rock solid or a decent fluid head then any movement will cause the smallest of vibrations. The larger the screen the more it will be amplified. One way to eliminate some shaking is to shoot with a wider lens. Telephoto will amplify it quite a bit. Anytime you do handheld shooting you want to use a wide lens.
also see if your camera has a stabiliser (either optical or digital). If it does, you want to turn it off when it's on a tripod as it will overcompensate when you pan the camera and this can result in jitter. Doubt that's the problem you're having tho, but worth mentioning.

One thing that sounds like you're seeing is your camera shakes but when you hold it to pan you are dampening the shaking. You might consider holding the handle on the camera even when it's not moving to see if that helps.
