Neat video plugin final cut
In each case, I'll show the original (non-filtered) video on the left, and the video with the Neat Video filter applied on the right. To do so, I created a new sequence with the clip loaded twice on the timeline, once filtered, once not, and then I rendered out to various output formats. Now, let's take a look at some results of this filter. Once you've got the filter configured, you render as normal. If there were scene changes, I would enable adaptive filtration by choosing 1. Typically, I leave that at the default of 100.įinally, Adaptive Filtration basically asks the question, "Do you want the filter to adjust its settings for different scenes in the video?" Now, in this particular video, there are no changes scene changes, so I'll say no by leaving the control at 0. The next setting, Temporal Filter Threshold, adjusts how the filter distinguishes noise from true motion. Still, unless you're in a real hurry, I find the extra quality produced by the filter worth the extra processing time.įigure 18.
It's going to take a lot longer to process each frame if you've got to consider 11 frames to do so. In other words, rather than applying the anti-noise setting to an individual frame, the filter will analyze these 3 frames to figure out what is noise and what is true motion.Īt the maximum setting of 5, the filter analyzes 5 frames before the frame being filtered and 5 frames after, which increases the accuracy with which the filter distinguishes noise from true motion. At a setting of 1, the filter is applied over 3 frames-the frame being filtered and the immediately preceding and succeeding frames. The first setting, Temporal Filter Radius, determines how many sequential frames the filter is applied over (Figure 18, below). Temporal Settings for the Neat Video filter in the Effect Controls view There are three settings here, as shown in Figure 17 (below).įigure 17. Next, we're going to work with the Temporal settings in the Effect Controls view, back in Premiere Pro, that we saw when we first applied the Neat Video filter to the clip.
