Instagram Hyperlapse stabilization: Bonus test footage

2014-10-13
hey everybody so everybody thanks for being a nerd and clicking to watch the extra footage from the hyperlapse video this is oh I'm I'm Ryan Manning we should say who's here I'm Ryan Manning I'm John Locke oh mercy no Tom Connors I'm Jimmy Shelton Jimmy is the person who was on the glidecam in this video and I'm the one that was on the hyperlapse so just want to talk about how crazy hyperlapse is like the way it's the way that hyperlapse stabilises is like so like it knows my java scope and my phone knows where my hand is right now and then it's like oh so you were kind of janky and written choppy when you were moving around I'm just gonna make that smooth for you because I know where your hand should have moved to be smooth as opposed to like warp stabiliser or any other image stables that stabilizer that like looks at the planes in the image and sort of tries to figure it out after the fact uh it's pretty crazy it's only it only is exists for like the phone right now you can see what the saucer right I like to point out that that shot it's like really hard to do so they're really hard yeah so Jimmy this is this is a glidecam and Jimmy on the glidecam and then it was warp stabilized and you can see it sort of like pulsing there and that's something you would never get in the native kit when you're using yeah that's something you'd never get when you're using like hyperlapse cuz you know actually yeah like when you use warp stabiliser it can be tricked if something so much it's so I think what I was doing in that shot was actually latching on to Sam's body instead of the seam which messes up a bar yeah and that happens all the time with warp stabiliser where we were looking at it that's Ryan by the way in the in the blue Kia that to me guys um so you can see like even this isn't low light at all in the shot and like you can still sort of see the weird blurry things from when it's still like more passable than what warp stabiliser will do to some shots yeah which is like I would see warp stabiliser hey yeah so I'm just trying to show you like what my hands did and then the shot that came from it so that's how I moved so like when you use hyperlapse you still have to look like an idiot and have a like a weird like it's not it's not like you can just casually shoot but you have to sort of still get into it but like the results are pretty crazy when you do get into an act you still try to be as stable as your as you can did you guys film this shot with the c100 on the glidecam I'm pretty sure it would fail really hard with all that detail happening like there is no way there are like lines to track on to but I'm pretty sure the feet moving which completely destroyed that job we're gonna run up the stairs and then land yeah hard shot to get anyway so like yeah the fact that like warp stabiliser could work in the dark it doesn't need something to look at to track on to all it needs is like the like motion from your the gyroscope which is crazy but like you were saying the other day when it's in the dark it also has to use a really wide shutter or a slow shutter rather and what happens then is when it does stabilize you get motion blur that gets stabilized in so it's like then of the telltale when you see some blurriness happen and the frame doesn't move do you have any come on where it's like locked-off shot and then it's just blurry yeah ah maybe because that's the stuff to me that's like a dead giveaway but yeah and like what they're getting so insane yeah it's insane the only thing that like that ruins is for me is that it's so deep if there was somehow to make this somewhat shallow like you can do on it like I see 300 or see 100 like oh well that's the thing it's like the only reason this is a problem is because like the phone's camera isn't that great yeah you put this you put this kind of stabilization technology into any like see 100 or larger camera and you're gonna get the same results but a better camera I know and it's gonna put me out of business just lazy this shot when I saw this is like holy this technology is crazy so like I was shaking so much on this shot before it was like shaky as heck yeah I mean these kind of shots you could do these classic like you look like a creep oh yeah I don't know if I've seen this I don't think this wasn't a bit oh my god right hitting this great that's insane yeah this is weird too like if you have shooting acquired something it's actually it's stabilizing to like the earth and not necessarily like the taxi you're in so like the taxi jump like whoa possibly stay stable so like that's a crazy effect see you do some there's because it's like a new kind of stabilization there are lots of like weird corks that we could people couldn't figure out have any of the videos that you shot though Havana oh now yeah if you like if you lock onto somebody's face like get really close to them and focus on their face and then just like just zoom in and out really fast like with your arms just like push it in out it looks really weird it's a it's a weird thing I mean maybe help how's this gonna go I'll throw it in after this oh yeah this is crazy so like I was running full speed here this is like the shaky version one point be one-handed but we don't have an alternate angle what I was running but I was running full speed on this and I think this is where you oh my god I mean it's not great you see it breaking down there are moments where it's like password right there as a moment as possible yeah there's like a not sure if I would still use it I wouldn't use it one of our videos put like sure but like you can see what's going on this is your kid riding like a motorized unit okay so here's like well this is your kid running a motorcycle I've questioned your parent yeah I mean this is markedly better oh yeah yeah I think once you get to like high speeds and very shaky a camera especially when you go to like one hand and you have to run they like tilting of your hand affects it so much more dramatically like oh I can't blow bubbles is he doing this now this Angie yes right um for the end then like like kinda it was kind of shaky at her web save either and it fixed it like so like this even like warp stabiliser gives it like this kind of surreal then to the image which I don't think hyperlapse is even doing like hyperlapse see it says at times but it's more like sharp where you'll notice that and feels like a sharp twitch rather than like the bending yeah like that might also have to do with the file that winning smile yeah this is crazy - like I'm anyway listening to this go try this it's wild just run really fast with it putting in your face oh wow yeah that's the man my mind it would I still don't know what it's doing cuz like my mind is so used to it having to icon to track onto the image so I don't even know why it's doing it that way it's it just knows where it isn't like imagine it we imagine the phone moving like shitty no this is actually you can see what like hyperlapse will never like solve all the problems and this one bells like wow there's some weirdness on the fence here watch when I the time to like jump up and down yeah a little bit but it's not now that's weird weird but it's it's an effect I've been seen before which i think is really interesting about this um but like Jimmy just imagine like you see all these webs and stuff just imagine that your phone knows how you how you moved through the space but then it goes back through it and sort of adds like does the opposition right like I'm like have you ever in Illustrator drawn like a crappy janky line and then there's like the thing that says like smooth it all out like it just smoothes out your hand in space it like imagine it going back through the exact same shot but smoothing out all of the point which is actually like a much easier thing to process that going through and analyzing the footage yeah the speed which is also amazing to me because of how long it takes to stabilize footage in Premiere to how quick hyperlapse is able to do it i okay it doesn't if you image process just like doing spacial taking the data that is we should look this up before we did this but we've heard about a thing that goes into a little dongle that goes into like the hot shoe on her on a professional camera that would collect the same kind of data and then using software could correct say for like one of our c100 right or something so that that's super interesting somebody's making a device that is just like a gyroscope that would I guess I have a third-party app that you plug the data in to run and your footage and then it would do the smoothing this way this is wild publish yet this is like this I was on a bike I was riding really dangerously oh yeah but that anyway that was crazy I was riding on a bike and shooting and it was really janky tears like I was like there's like shitty like concert footage and like you want to see my hand is shaking I was doing like sort of a fake tracking move like a fake jib man but it's pretty it was pretty dark and you'll see like there aren't a lot all right it's crazy even for being this dark where I don't see much of the blurring you might see it every once in a while and lamp light you can see like it's sort of blurring but it's pretty smooth guys I mean the unfortunate thing though is that you're still using a phone's camera so yeah that is the inferno the motion looks great the exposure just isn't good here right and like that's gonna always be the problem but like it's just it to me is like the hope of this for the future is crazy good we're gonna and like Jimmy said it does feel like my job will get like taken away soon because all of a sudden this computer will take over what we did what if GoPro had this built in yeah I mean no joke I had the contact to somebody at GoPro and I was like why aren't you guys doing this now like right now collection like the biggest problem of GoPro is that it's shaky and like how hard would it be to put a gyroscope in a GoPro not hard how hard would it be to put a gyroscope in any camera like this this technology is like the inevitable future of all cameras the stabilization the way we used to do it will still be around but it'll be completely secondary this kind of stables and you can get away with so many more bumps and yeah it's great basically well I guess the other thing though is that you need to be rolling then at a resolution that's much higher than you don't do it well you need to be like ah like the future of this is really really high shutter speed this is a good sort of platform stabilizer yeah warp stabilizer up going in and out like it's terrible or precise is web stabilizer is cool but this is why warp stabilizer is gonna die stuff like that well alright I guess it's over that wasn't ending but thanks for um yeah Rhonda thank you hey thanks for watching better you
