DaVinci Resolve: Remove skin imperfections with AI Blemish Removal
DaVinci Resolve
Demo summary
The creator demonstrates the AI Blemish Removal tool in the color page, showing how to apply it to specific areas using masks to clean up skin textures.
Step-by-step
- Navigate to the Color page
- Search for 'blemish' in the effects library
- Drag the Blemish Removal effect onto the node
- Increase the strength slider to see the changes
- Add a mask to isolate the effect to specific areas like the lips or skin imperfections
Options
- Apply the effect to still shots or close-up video clips
Watch out for
- The effect may remove too much detail if applied globally without a mask
Tips
- Use masks to avoid affecting natural markings or areas that don't need correction
- Avoid making the effect too strong to ensure the skin still looks natural rather than 'absolutely flawless'
- Use this tool to neaten up blemishes for professional model shoots or short films while keeping some skin texture for realism
Highlights
“it is just a really nice effect. It's not too noticeable.”
