All language subtitles for Procolor_C11_L2c_Tracking

Now we're going
to explore one of the coolest features,

in my opinion, of resolve,
and that is tracking motion using.

Let's work on Shot 80.

I'll just copy our correction
from shot 76.

Reset our primaries here.

Do a quick adjustment
to our color temperature,

maybe give a little contrast

so we have something nice to look at here.

All right.

Let's have a look at something
really cool.

Let's say for whatever reason,
we want to brighten up

this kind of darker part on his face.

Maybe for whatever reason,
that really annoys us.

I don't think it's quite the worst,
but it's maybe not the very best either.

We can do something like grab our power
curve in our second note here

and I'll just draw a
little shape around his eye,

just where it's dark,

and we'll adjust

the inside an outside softness

to where we have a nice soft

selection here.

And we can take this
and maybe boost our offset a little bit

just to give him a little bit of fill
a little bit of fill light.

So here's before and here's after

and probably take

a little bit of adjustment here.

These kind of things are a little bit
tricky,

but you can get some good results

if you are patient.

So that's just giving

a little bit of feel light to his eye
right there.

And let's say we like that.

Okay, well, there's a problem.

He's moving around and

that window is not.

And so that's kind of look really weird.

So we could keyframe this

and animate this kind of like
we did a couple lessons back with the

the door and the fur,
but that would be terribly miserable.

So what are we to do?

Luckily,
Resolve has a really good tracker.

All we have to do is set up our window
where we want it

and we'll switch over to the tracker
palette, which is the fifth one over.

And there's a little button here
that has a right arrow and a left arrow.

If we click that, what it will do

is track the motion
of his face pretty darn well

throughout the shot,

and it will stick that window to his face.

Look at it.

It's insane how good it is.

So now

this looks totally natural.

And we've added that Phil

to his eye,
and this pretty much works the same way.

Any time that you want to track something,
I'll make another note here.

Let's say we want to track his whole face

at an ellipse window here,

and we'll just select this face like this

switch over to the tracker window
and it track forward and reverse

and it tracks the motion of his face
pretty darn well.

And what's really cool is once
you have the track,

once you've already tracked it,
you can actually move this around

and it doesn't actually keyframe this,
it just applies the motion to the window.

So we can move this around
and refine this afterwards

to get
an even better selection of his face.

And it will still move the way it should.

So now, if we want to do something like

change him to Purple Face,

we can do that

and get quite a good result.

Even with an extreme correction like this.

Pretty cool.
