SmoothCam

I’ve had the chance to play with a new filter in FCP called SmoothCam. It’s great, and creates delicious results.
It’s basically a camera stabilisation filter which has been ported from Shake. It processes your footage to create a vector map of all of the objects and movements, then using that data to manipulate the original footage to create smooth camera motion.
