Leveling Sloping Clip
I shot a video with a 70-200 lens from a balcony and noticed that some of my video has the table on stage looking like it's sloping off of horizontal. I've not been back at my office yet but figured I could correct this with the pan control for the clip.....correct? or is there a better way.

Re: Leveling Sloping Clip
That's how I've always done it - go into pan/crop, and use the rotate option... is there another way?

Re: Leveling Sloping Clip
Pan/Crop is what I use but remember once you straighten it out you need to resize the clip a bit to get rid of any edges that fall off. Little bites. :-)

Re: Leveling Sloping Clip
Thanks Don,
Gonna be a lot more concious of the tilt while filming next time. Art of Beer was the event and I was sampling while I shot! :-)

Re: Leveling Sloping Clip
Well since it was the "art of beer" you might be OK leaving it slightly off kilter! ;-)

Re: Leveling Sloping Clip
This sounds like lens distortion coming into play. Sure, try p/c, but maybe a more global approach like a distortion FX may just correct the issue, and keep it looking organic.

Re: Leveling Sloping Clip
Pan/Crop and Track Motion can both rotate. If you have camera distortion, is it a Fisheye look? NewBlue has a fisheye correction tool that may help you if that's what it is.

Re: Leveling Sloping Clip
The rotate corrected the obvious sloping of the table. There may have been some distortion too but there was a table on the stage and it needed to at least look somewhat level. It's the videographer I think more than the lens.
