For example, you can track a window on a person in order to make color and contrast changes
just to that person without affecting his or her surroundings. By making corrections like this you
can influence the audience's attention on areas you want them to notice.
To add a power window to your clip:
1
Add a new serial node.
2
Open the 'window' palette and select a window shape by clicking on a shape icon.
Your selected window shape will appear on the node.
3
Resize the shape by clicking and dragging the blue points around the shape. The red
points adjust the edge softness. You can position the shape by clicking the center
point and moving it to the area you want to isolate. Rotate the window using the point
connected to the center.
Now you can make color corrections to your image in just the area you want.
Power windows let you make secondary corrections to specific parts of your image
Tracking a Window
The camera, object or area in your shot may be moving, so to make sure your window stays on
your selected object or area, you can use DaVinci Resolve's powerful tracking feature. The
tracker analyzes the pan, tilt, zoom and rotation of the camera or object in your clip so you can
match your windows to that movement. If this isn't done, your correction can move off the
selected target and call attention to itself, which you probably don't want.
You can track objects or areas in your clip using the tracker
feature so power windows can follow the action
