In this tutorial we explore how to use the stabilize motion tracker in after effects. This effect is sometimes called the Sherlock Holmes effect as it was featured in the film "Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows" featuring Robert Downey Jr.. This effect creates the idea that the camera is in perfect sync with a particular object in your scene, potentially the most powerful way to use this effect would be to lock on to a character's eyes. This creates an effect that's also reminiscent of David Fincher styled camera work.

For a full day I've been trying to do this exact effect with a motion tracked null object parented to a camera layer with annoying results. Thank you so much for this.

@MotionArrayTutorials 5 лет назад

We're so happy the video could be helpful! Cheers!

@AndroSpud 5 лет назад

Great video as always. A tip when trying to achieve this effect is to have the footage as steady as possible before attempting to track the motion, by using a static camera or a gimbal. Background motion which you usually don't pay attention to when the subject is moving over the shot becomes twice as noticeable when the subject is then locked in place.

@chrissre7935 5 лет назад

Its cool. Just have to remmember to do Extra Margins when shooting so that the face dsnt take too much of the frame.

@MotionArrayTutorials 5 лет назад

Very true! 😁

@KynsonMitchell 4 года назад

You can use the motion tile effect, with mirror edges enabled, to extend the margins by reflecting the video. It's really useful for this kinda stuff

@breakinglabarrier9430 6 лет назад

Great tutorial! I still have a lot of movement going on in the background. Any recommendations on those very shallow depth of field shots? Unfortunately, I didn't have access to my stabilizer at this particular time :(

@MotionArrayTutorials 6 лет назад

Maybe if you tried a warp stabilizer technique and then pre-composed and tried the stabilize motion on top of that? Sorry to hear it’s giving you trouble

@MrTerryRay1 5 лет назад

@abieg.9229 Год назад

instead of scaling up to get rid of your black space, add motion tile and change output height and width to 400, then check reflect edges

By the way, this motion stabilization could be more automated. It's actually pretty easy maths when you have to calculate the best placement so you won't get out of the frame. (Sorry if my English don't make sense)

So glad to hear you're back on track! We unfortunately don't have the exact fps the video was shot in. However our best guess is between 180-300fps.

Quiet fluid ;) What's your config? I'm trying to rig up a good workstation!

@MotionArrayTutorials 4 года назад

Hi Adrien! I actually just literally upgraded my system a few days ago! But the computer used in this example was as follows Intel i7-5820k GTX 980Ti 32GB of ram Multiple SSDs holding the project files, scratch files, and footage separately for maximum speed The new system is I9-9900K RTX 2070 Super 64gb of ram And the same ssd configuration We actually have a video all about system requirements and in that video is included at the end potentially the best way of setting up your drives for maximum efficiency and therefore speed. I’ll link to that video as well 😄 And stay tuned! Because we have a video coming out hopefully soon detailing the best workstation possible for Ae (spoiler it’s pretty much that new 9900k system)

@iamCairn 4 года назад

Would this look bad with 1080p footage or noticeably degraded in quality?

@MotionArrayTutorials 4 года назад

It depends on how much the footage was zoomed in when everything is applied. If it ended up pushing in as close as in our example then yes 1080p would show a noticeable degrade. However, if the effect is powerful enough and enjoyable enough to look at, it might not be a problem. All depends on the individual scenario

@EnglishRain 4 года назад

3:40 - hey man, did you ever figure out any alternate solution that scaling up? Something like 'reduce canvas style' instead? Scaling up ruins the quality with already low res videos.

@mustafakareemmusaalasadi7796 3 года назад

You can record in high resolution like 4k and scale it down to 1080 like David Fincher he shot 6k footage and then he framed the shot to 5k If your camera doesn't support the high resolution you can buy used canon eos m for 100$ dollars with hack software (magic lantern) you can shot 5.6k and then you can frame the shot to 4k without losing quality

@jrow96 4 года назад

Sorry to hear. If you have multiple other layers in your composition, try clicking the "edit" button within the tracker to make sure that your footage layer is what the effect is being applied to
