in today's really cool color grading tutorial well actually today is gonna be
video editing tutorial I'm gonna talk about how you can deal with the dead
pixels on your camera now what i'm gonna talk about gonna apply
evenly on pretty much any editing software we're talking about Premiere
After Effects Final Cut avid I mean you name it this is absolutely the same
technique that goes to any of those video editing programs anyways so here I
have a file I don't know how YouTube compression is but I specifically
created couple dead pixels to simulate the faulty of the camera sensor so we
have one over here and then we have a couple pixels over here now
most likely if you have those couple pixels you're gonna be working on the
entire project oh yeah and by the way and there's one right over here so this
will already great that I put my origami light on it so this clip is already
graded now the very important part you need to understand in DaVinci Resolve
and this is apply on about adjustment layers in Premiere and other layer based
programs this is a node-based but the concept again is the same so we
have two little options over here we have timeline and then we have clip
basically the clip is the local adjustment that means you only editing
this clip however if you're working on the project and you have dead pixels
most likely you're gonna have the same dead pixels across all your shots if you
used the same camera so what we're gonna do we're actually going to be working in
the timeline in for example premiere equivalent this would be an adjustment
layer or let's say you can duplicate a layer in certain situation and mask it
out but for the sake of it this is adjustment layer so let's create a new
alt s okay now I'm gonna do another new note because I don't really like
touching the first note okay another old s and then we're gonna do alt B we're
gonna convert it to the parallel so here is a very simple fix all I'm gonna do
now I'm going to zoom in to a dead pixel okay I'm gonna go into the mask and
again every editing program have exactly same amount of tools at your disposal
and some of you probably gonna say oh there's a plugins but not sure sometimes
actually a lot of times those plugins not really doing that good of a job also
if you working on relatively heavily editing project with you know some sound
adjustments with like multiple layers whatnot you don't really want to
overload your computer with extra plugins because plugins take a lot of
resources this is the best and easiest way okay so here I am in the windows and
I'm gonna go and grab this little guy over here actually any of them works but
I'm gonna do my own and what I'm gonna do just select this pixel right over
here okay for the sake of it we're gonna feather it a little bit and we're gonna
do a little bit outside okay now we're gonna go over here into blur
panel and we're just simply gonna blur it out until this thing disappears now
why is it not happening that because we have softened if we're gonna go down a
little bit because it's such a small size when you soften it you make it
radius too big now when we go down a little bit let's see I don't know if you
can see it over here probably not okay we gonna see this thing disappear all
right so that's it our that pixel is gone you
don't need to track it you don't need to do anything okay now we're gonna repeat
the process for this it's a very same sometimes the dead pixels gonna be white
sometimes they may be red it depends but most likely it's gonna be their white or
red all right so here's another one again
we're gonna do this little square you can have circle whatever you want okay
make it disappear and slightly fetter it just slightly
just in case just in case you know you never know what kind of shot you have
you don't want anybody so noticed this again I'm gonna add more alt be gonna
zoom out here's a couple more guys and it's very important be sure to do one
did pixel pair no don't try to jam them together that way have ultimately
complete control on what are you doing now this relatively is so small you're
not actually affecting quality at all okay especially if you have 4k clip this
is 4k source rendered down to 1080p and as we can see it's actually working
pretty good again you note you parallel layer okay
over here like this like that okay couple pixels feather then blur okay
with zoom out and as we can see we fix the whole thing with just few clicks of
a mouse that way your computer is still running fast and you don't really need
to do any kind of plugins or anything like that
so thank you for watching be sure to click like comment subscribe and I'll
see you guys in the next video stay cool
