In this instance, I chose Machine Learning before clicking on Analyze (in the top left of the viewer). You’ll see an Analysis Method drop down menu with the options Automatic, Combined, Machine Learning and Point Cloud. Clicking on the icon adds a tracking grid to the viewer, which we can then drag over the object we want to track (the Jeep), resizing it with the handles. With the clip selected, we can head down to the last section in the Inspector where you’ll find “Object Track”. Adding a marker to a reference frame for easy location later. I put a marker on it (M is the shortcut) so that I’ll know where to find this reference frame later. So I’ve identified a frame where it is clearly in view and unobstructed.Īdditionally, there isn’t much motion blur on this particular frame, so it’ll make a good starting point. A quick skim of the footage reveals that most of this is obscured or even totally outside of the frame. Our objective for this challenge is to change the color of this Jeep from red to green. (Hopefully, most of your shots will be a bit more forgiving.) But after a couple of attempts, I felt like I’d got the hang of the new features in FCP and I was pleasantly surprised by the results.
Compressed iPhone footage, high-motion, and with objects passing in front of the subject. It’s no Ford Bronco commercial, but it’ll serve as a pretty good “torture test” of FCP’s color grading tools. So, of course, I shot some video of him zooming around a corner with my iPhone 14 Pro Max. Recently, I went on an offroading adventure with some buddies and a fellow post-production pro brought along his Jeep. The tracking, masking, and color selection tools in Resolve have always impressed me.īut Final Cut Pro recently introduced some advanced tracking, masking, and color grading tools, so I wanted to see how well they worked when combined with a difficult color adjustment.

I love Apple’s Final Cut Pro for editing-in fact I wrote a piece on how to edit faster in FCP a while back-but I’ve always sent my edits over to DaVinci Resolve for color grading.
