Main Controls
The top two controls let you initiate the Face Refinement process.
Analyze: This button initiates the process of using the facial detection of the Face
Refinement plug-in to detect the face you want to make adjustments for, and track its
motion throughout the range of the clip. You only need to do this once, and the data
will be stored.
Show overlay: To impress your clients and see how well Face Detection is tracking the
face you’re working on, you can turn on this checkbox, which turns on the wireframe
tracking that shows you which facial details are being detected.
Skin Mask
These controls let you adjust the skin mask this plug-in automatically generates in order to limit
the effect to only the face of the person you’re targeting.
Use mask: This checkbox enables DaVinci Resolve to sample the dominant skin tone
values within the face to create a complexion-focused key to isolate the skin tones
of the image. However, since it’s still possible to have blonde hair, wood panelling, or
other skin-colored features in the frame that inadvertently get included in this key.
Use face mask: Turning on this checkbox places a circular garbage mask that follows
the face to eliminate these accidental inclusions.
Face mask size and Face mask softness: These sliders let you adjust the face mask to
better fit the face you’re working on, if necessary.
Refine mask: This slider lets you adjust the face mask to smooth or eliminate gaps in
the key.
Show mask: This checkbox makes the face mask being generated visible, which can
be helpful to see while you’re tuning it.
Show overlay: To impress your clients and see how well Face Detection is tracking the
face you’re working on, you can turn on this checkbox, which turns on the wireframe
tracking that shows you which facial details are being detected.
