  How I understand you speaking about illumination flickering.
  
  It looks like artifact from different fps and light bulb flickering.
  
  Usually you can fix it like that:
  
  1. Duplicate footage
  2. Place it above first instance of that footage
  3. Make transparency 50%
  4. Move it one frame forward.
  
  That shall compensate flickering.
