DaVinci Resolve: AI color grading with Higgsfield Latch

Demo summary
The user demonstrates the 'Latch' tool by uploading a reference photo of a New York taxi and applying its color profile to a video clip, then refining the AI-generated color channels manually.
Step-by-step
- Open the Latch tool within the Higgsfield plugin
- Upload a reference image to serve as the color grade source
- Set the strength slider to approximately 85%
- Click Generate to apply the color profile to the video clip
- Review the AI-generated adjustments for exposure, shadows, highlights, and color channels
- Manually nudge individual color channels to refine the final look
Options
- Adjust exposure, shadows, and highlights individually after the AI generation
- Modify individual color channels to match specific elements of the reference
Tips
- Use a reference photo you have previously color graded to achieve a specific 'moody' look
- Take the AI's output as a starting point and refine it manually for better accuracy
Highlights
“this process is much faster than the full video edits”
