Eliminate up and down movement from walking footage

Is there a way to eliminate the bobbing effect from footage? It's the up and down movement that you see when you record scene while walking.


Thank you

Is there a way to eliminate the bobbing effect from footage?

As terryb said, there are two ways to control the movement of your footage: using FCP's stabilization function or tracking function.


Stabilization function


Tracking function



It's the up and down movement that you see when you record scene while walking.

Using the tracking function requires knowledge and experience. The reason is that you need to derive the appropriate parameter values ​​based on how much space there is around the subject in the image and how far the subject moves. Could you upload the video to WeTransfer and share it with me? It depends on the condition of the video, but I can analyze the appropriate values.
