The search function is not working for me right now so does anyone have any advice on reducing noise in low light footage. Are there any filters you guys use or a workflow. It is not horrible noise but I would like to smooth it out if possible. Thanks.
 
Besides shooting in better light conditions, you can try neat video or other similar noise removal filters.
 
The video is already shot. It was just a quick thing nothing professional but there is a small amount of noise and I was wondering if there is a good filter to just smooth it out a bit.
 
Thanks PDR. I found that also. I was looking to get away free but that looks like a solution that might be worth a few bucks. Im running Final Cut Pro on a Macbook Pro and I also have Color and Adobe Premiere if there is anything for that anyone recommends.
 
Here is the example Cavalcade of Lights when I made night video of the fireworks. Used ISO 3200, the original footage was kinda noisy not only due to leak of light but the compression as well, BUT I graded and made editing I wanted, exported final edit into non compressed footage and killed the noise with neatvideo, works great for production, but if you bring it back to web, even HD you will get your slightly noise back.
