"William Russell was fortunate and fast enough to capture footage of Sakajurajima's eruption, but his hand wasn't steady and his lens wasn't wide. Thanks to modern video-editing software, though, and his own extreme patience, Russell could stabilize his shot and superimpose it on a panoramic view of the volcano."

That's super neat how you did that

Wouldnt it be freaky if youre at a mountain but only when you see it through your phone, it looks like that.

What stabilizer program are you using? Badass!

That's actually pretty cool. I wouldn't mind seeing more things like this.

I need a tutorial how to do this in After Effects... I have seen this used to "draw" the entire image by shaky footage

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I was thinking how to do this in After Effects. Under warp stabilizer, you can move the entire video like above, then align the 2 videos up!

You're doing god's work

This is how stabilization should be done. It provides a good sense of scale and location

This one is done exceptionally well.

I've never seen anything like this before. Now there's countless videos I've seen in the past that I wish were done this way.

Is there a more neutral comment than one with almost 1000 Upvote and no Downvotes

Wouldn't it only work for long distance videos?

I suppose you need another shot from pretty much the same vantage point.

Well, that's not hard to get if you can contact someone in the area.

Stabilised by who? Michael J Fox?

I love this technique! Totally going to use it later on.

They should make an app where u can see events of the past in real time.

This is one of absolutely neatest video edits I've ever seen. Also, to original recording person; yay for horisontal, but _zoom out_ FFS!

Crazy how nature do that.

If you hadn't done that I would find the eruption video unwatchable - well done.

I will repeat few comments for sure but damn! Amazing idea with context stabilization. Awesome work!

The ONE time it would have been useful to film vertically...

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

The only reason you are asking for vertical in this case is b/c of the stabilization overlap on a "horizontal" shot. Never shoot vertically.

More like it'd get more of the smoke cloud in frame at once. I'd still like it stabilised over the still image, that shit is cool.

Dude, your mountain is malfunctioning.

The function smoke is coming out, it is what makes it work

Actually, I'd call that functioning. That's a hell of a function!

No its just a glitch in the simulation the lizard overlords will fix that in their next patch.

It's not a glitch, it's a feature.

Vertical would be the only way to capture mountain and ash plume, assuming camera isn't zoomed in. Vertical would be okay here.
