DaVinci Resolve: AI background replacement and motion preservation

Demo summary
The video shows how to change a video's background via text prompt while preserving the subject's original motion, followed by dragging the generated clip directly from the plugin panel to the DaVinci Resolve timeline.
Step-by-step
- Describe the desired background in the text prompt
- Set the aspect ratio and resolution
- Click Generate
- Drag the completed generation from the plugin panel directly onto the timeline
- Trim the clip as needed to align with the original footage
Watch out for
- Background removal costs one credit per frame, which can add up quickly for longer clips
Tips
- Continue working on other parts of your timeline while the AI generates in the background panel to maintain workflow momentum
