How to do Window Tracking in Resolve

[@SVP-CoCom]

4 years later not sure if it's gotten easier but this is a great primer of how it works! - Thanks.

[@BlakeJonesShowsHowDoYouDoThat]

Great to hear!

Pointing out the frame mode has been a godsend. I thought I had to individually split each clip frame by frame and individually make a node, but now I can easily readjust the censor without all that extra stuff. Thank you.

[@BlakeJonesShowsHowDoYouDoThat]

So glad it was helpful!

[@Onblusbaar_Brah_]

Thank you so much! I kept adding the keyframes but when playing back, it removed it again! So frustrating! Realised here had to flip between Clip and Frame! Awesome video, thanks!

[@BlakeJonesShowsHowDoYouDoThat]

Glad it helped!

[@ChristopherP10]

Before this video I used a combination of auto tracking, and keyframing my matte in the clip window. I was tearing my hair out wondering why it would change everytime I went to play the video back. This helped me realize I needed to be in the Frame section rather than the Clip section when making manual adjustments. Not sure why it's built this way, but thanks for the clarification!

Glad you like it!

[@alexey.cherkasov]

thanks for the video! Is there any chance to stop tracking at some point of the shot (for example face is not visible) and then to continue it?

[@Follower-l3v]

This is easy to understand for a beginner like me thanks!

[@yuh5king189]

Best tutorial ever

[@BlakeJonesShowsHowDoYouDoThat]

So glad you liked it!

[@VisiPianoOfficial]

Thanks for this. Very helpful. How would you go about applying a power window to a subject and track it whilst it goes our of scene for a few seconds before coming back in? Say you were doing a pan across a room and wanted to keep some plants tracked for color correction.

[@martindye]

Thanks, that is awesome, some people just explain things in a way is just easy to understand and sticks.

[@BlakeJonesShowsHowDoYouDoThat]

I'm so glad you liked it!

[@enthusiast1]

Really awesome tips... turning off softening during the track, Clip vs Frame mode... keyframes in Frame mode... thank you! This 5 mins felt like a robust minute, something to affect my own verbosity... I hope.

[@BlakeJonesShowsHowDoYouDoThat]

Great to hear!

[@billythecat]

Thank you so much. The Resolve manual is trash sometimes. On "Dealing With Occlusions When Tracking" (chapter 137 Motion Tracking Windows), instead of telling us to create a keyframe where the tracking is good, it tells us to just create a keyframe after the badly tracked portion, which messes up the interpolation.

[@bugraozkan8137]

Total beginner here. How did you add the second node?

[@BlakeJonesShowsHowDoYouDoThat]

It's Option+S for a Serial Node or Option+P for a Parallel Node on a Mac keyboard. Within the program, you can also do this on the Color Page by access the Color pulldown menu at the top of the display and select Nodes and then the Add Node options appear.

[@bugraozkan8137]

@@BlakeJonesShowsHowDoYouDoThat Thank you. I am on Windows so I guess it is Alt + S or P.

[@rcarendsen]

Hi, great tutorial and very helpful. but i noticed in the end of the tracking while you where making corrections to the position of the power window it stopped following the angle of the head. Is there a way to correct that ... was re-tracking with a bigger or smaller power window not a better option ? Again many thanx for uploading 😁

[@zfranklin4231]

Hi Blake. Is there a way to automate tracking windows for real estate? I am trying to bring the window views in
