Apache Footage Of Pass Stabilized

Within final cut there are 3 filters I have for stabilization. I have another add on auto tracker as well.Show more

I applied all three of the ones I could to this footage, as one of my audience members asked for it to be done - their name comes up as Firstname Lastname, but never the less, they asked and I'll oblige.

So the first clip, has no sharpen filter added to it, it's just the footage, with the stabilizers added to it. The next footage is with the sharpen.

Luckily for myself, I was invited to a group of some very big players in the field of discerning between the real stuff and the fake stuff and although I do not speak there too often, as I'd be embarrassed at my knowledge level in comparison to theirs - Dave Beaty - Twitter: @dave_beaty and John Greenewald, Jr. - @blackvaultcom , have both gone on to mention that these are likely birds.

After watching what Dave Beaty put out on his twitter page and considering what the Debrief mentioned in their article, I find there's two polar opposite directions here. I'm leaning more towards what Dave's saying.
