Simply put: it’s a massive time saver that can make handheld shots look much smoother. The effect analyzes the motion in a given shot, applies the necessary movement effects to the clip and will also dynamically skew your image to cover up any super serious wobble. Now, the Warp Stabilizer can do this for you much faster and produce better results. This was a very manual process and took a lot of time to tweak each shot. In the past, to stabilize a shot in post-production, you’d need to spend time motion tracking a shot in a package like After Effects then use your tracking data to apply position, scale and rotation effects to negate the camera’s motion. Fortunately, digital stabilization has come a long way recently too and Premiere Pro is here to help with its brilliant Warp Stabilizer effect! What is the Warp Stabilizer? However, whether you use fancy on-camera stabilization equipment or not, it’s rare that every shot comes out as effortlessly. Sliders, dollies and (particularly) handheld gimbals are increasingly affordable and popular ways to get silky-smooth tracking and handheld shots in an array of situations.
