And if you are like me, you only want to consult the manual if you have to (stupid, I know!) Digital Anarchy has made Flicker Free really easy to use and they provide a bunch of presets that a lot of times solve the problem straight away. Sometimes plug-ins can be complicated to understand and use. Flicker Free from Digital Anarchy was originally designed for de-flickering time-lapse shots, but the company actually found it worked really well for getting rid of flicker that occurs in many other forms.
There is nothing worse than having nasty flicker on your images, and I think a lot of people are unaware that there are ways of reducing it, or in a lot of cases getting rid of it entirely. Now, this isn’t a new product, it’s actually been out for four years, but with more and more cameras now capable of shooting in high frame rates and capturing in-camera time-lapses, I thought it was a good time to look at it in more detail. It works in most video editing applications, such as Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, FCP X, Avid, Resolve and Vegas.
Digital Anarchy’s Flicker Free is a plug-in that fixes flicker problems that occur from shooting time-lapse, slow-motion video, drone footage, or under certain LED or fluorescent lights.
