Well, even though stabilisation was great and the videos looked good before the browser, once they were exported, they looked very bad with terrible artifacting.
Thus, I bit the bullet and decided to re-shoot instead of sleeping.
This is the new layout used for the re-shoot, you’ll notice that I added a border around the rear of the lazy susan so as to avoid reflection and increase lighting of items inside liquid.
