Doing it all in Davinci – PART 3 – Patch Replacer and Tracking FX

Patch Replacer and Tracking FX in Davinci Part 3 - Filmmakers Academy

DOING IT ALL IN DAVINCI - PART 3 - PATCH REPLACE

In this part, we’re looking at the patch replace a tool and also the tracker and using those two rather complicated tools together to get the final result we need.

Make sure you pay attention to where we are within the panels because it will get a little bit complicated.

When you’re filming a white sports car, you’re going to pick up small specks of dust. And while we did have our team diligently waiting to wipe everything down in between takes, inevitably bits of dirt snuck in with the white paint job.

These were really obvious on certain shots where we’re in close on the details, such as the plane identifier, which is a really important link with Concord and Aston Martin so we need to have that in.

I’m going to take you through the process for adding in this correction where we’re moving the dirt. First of all, just gonna disable the node (click for a full breakdown of nodes from Cinema5D) that I’ve currently got in there and we’re going to add a new serial node in.

  1. Go over to the effects library.
  2. On the right hand side go down to the resolve revival set of effects.
  3.  Within that looking down, you’re going to see “Patch Replacer.”
  4. Drag that onto the project.

So that works like the clone stamp tool would in Photoshop or After Effects. All we are going to do is pull the tab down because we need everything to be roughly where that speck of dirt is.

DOING IT ALL IN DAVINCI - PART 3 - TRACKING

If this was a static shot, it would be really easy now just to leave that as long as nothing crosses in front of it. It would be fine. BUT we’re not dealing with a static shot. The car’s moving, the camera’s moving, so we’re gonna need to track it.

  1. We go to our track panel
  2. Within the track panel click the section that says window.
  3. Scroll down to effects.
  4. Once you’re there, you can add tracking markers in.

DOING IT ALL IN DAVINCI - PART 3 - PATCH REPLACER

It’ll track those details moving forwards.

Now, there are a couple of controls that you’ve got on the right hand side that if, for example, you wanted to do a pure just clone, you could do it.

We’re doing the adaptive blend at the moment, but you might want to use the clone tool.

In the next part, we’re going to take some of what we learned with tracking and use it to change the color of a little model car.
