RE:Vision Effects’ (www.revisionfx.com) DE:Flicker for Apple Final Cut Pro and Motion is designed to smooth out flicker and artifacts when shooting high frame rate or timelapse video.

It not only fixes flicker from artificial light sources but also fixes flicker on multiple objects, even when those objects flicker at different rates. DE:Flicker also minimizes problems when shooting directly at light sources, causing them to “breathe” and change size when shot at higher frame rates.

DE:Flicker will also help transform your timelapse photography so that viewers watch the footage you intended them to watch and not the annoying pops that often accompany timelapse photography. It handles the common problems of color shifts, exposure and other camera setting and lighting inconsistencies that may occur from frame to frame. DE:Flicker also tames the problems of clouds casting shadows at different places between frames, and performs well when objects appear or disappear from frame to frame.

DE:Flicker is a set of three plug-ins: one specially designed for problems within high frame rate footage; one specially designed for timelapse photography; and a third one that analyzes and then stabilizes the color and luminance levels of your footage and can be used before more specific processing with one of the other two plug-ins. As with all RE:Vision Effects plug-ins, DE:Flicker automatically works right out of the gate, but also provides intuitive controls to further refine the results.

DE:Flicker for Final Cut Pro (10.1.4 and up) and Motion (5.1.2 and up) DE:Flicker for After Effects (CS5, CS5.5, CS6, CC and CC 2014) costs US$249.95. A demo is available.
