After Effects Camera Stabilizer Plugin

Video Copilot's element 3d is a great plugin. It allows me to bring my objects that I have modeled in Lightwave, into After effects. This has helped speed up production, because I don't have to render out the scene first. I can take my model straight into After Effects and then render my scene. All in After Effects.

This stuff comes right out of the background in KeyLight in After Effects. Brilliant!

I use a NikonD200 with a Neoprene neck strap and the neoprene, flexible Stabilizer Strap (Op/Tech USA) around my chest when camera is not in use. The stabilizer precents the camera swaying when I am running, climbing, or otherwise active, even getting out of crowded vehicles. The stbilizer prevents the strap from impacting anything like branches, rock walls, furniture, or the person in the seat ahead of me. It permits the camera to instantly slip out of the stabilizer, leaving the strap in position./ The strap length is adjustable to fit over a bulky jacket or vest, and the snap-on ends make it easy to fit.The central lens opening can be enlarged to fit extremely wide diameter lenses. I canot imagine how it could be improved.

I have 3 of these on different plates and such to keep from having to remove the camera from the stabilizer, they are indispensable.

Loaded this up with 32GB of RAM and it's super fast. Great for After Effects.

I äm using as a backdrop for blending videos with After Effects. Incredibly easy to set up and use.

Upgraded my memory to 64GB to help run After Effects better. Its working.

After a few weeks, I'm still in the process of learning how to use this stabilizer. I think balancing it to be 100% stable is the most difficult part. After that, you just need to hone your gliding technique. I've come a long way since I first received this, and though my footage isn't perfect, I can tell that it looks really good. But really good is not the reason a person purchases this device. I personally want perfect, cinema-quality stabilization for narrative videography, and I'm sure with a few weeks of practice I'll be able to get that. Note: this stabilizer, with camera, will probably end up weighing between 8-15 lbs., which doesn't sound too heavy. But just try to spend more than 10 minutes operating this, and you'll feel it in your arm/shoulder.

Easy to use, just plugin and shoot

So far best and professional plugin for AE.
