Thank you! Yes I take a step for every shot. I learned from others on youtube along with my own trial and error finding efficient ways of doing it manually. Its really not all that difficult, just takes a little patience.
I use a Canon T5 Rebel and a monopod, every shot is re-aligned with the grid on my screen, placing the focus point in the same spot. Then I use Lightroom for batch editing and After Effects to stabilize everything. Doing it this way I can get a 4-7 second clip done in about 30-50min minus the post editing.
