[ This is an excerpt from a recent webinar: “AI-Powered Tools in DaVinci Resolve 20” which is available as a download in our store, or as part of our Video Training Library. ]
EXCERPT DESCRIPTION
Magic Mask 2 is a powerful tool for creating masks in DaVinci Resolve 20. But did you know you can also use it to separate the foreground from the background? Yup. But, darn! Resolve does not make this obvious.
In this short video tutorial, Larry Jordan illustrates how to create a mask, then use it to remove the background and replace it with something else. It only takes a few seconds – once you know how it works.
NOTE: Magic Mask 2 requires the Studio version of DaVinci Resolve.

WEBINAR DESCRIPTION
While the free version of DaVinci Resolve contains a wealth of editing tools, the Studio version unlocks the real power of AI for editing, effects and audio. While generative AI brags about all the ways it will replace editors; Resolve’s developers are creating ways to use machine learning to simplify difficult tasks without replacing the human at the center.
Presenting more than 30 demos, Larry Jordan illustrates how to use many of the AI tools in the Studio version of DaVinci Resolve 20.
AI can be a force for good, or evil. In almost all cases, the AI-powered tools in DaVinci Resolve enable you to edit faster, or achieve results that would be incredibly difficult to attempt any other way.
AUDIENCE LEVEL
This is an advanced-level session. Some knowledge of any version of DaVinci Resolve will be helpful.
NOTE: If you don’t any anything about Resolve, this “Getting Started” session is the best place to start!

Spominjete ime Davinci Resolve 20 i govorite o Magic maski. Ovo ime me asocira na besplatnu verziju. Posjedujem besplatnu verziju, a na njoj nema Magic maske 2, niti starije verzije. Može li se ona na neki način ugraditi u besplatnu verziju. Nisam u mogućnosti u državi u kojoj živim (RH – Croatia) platiti ovu izuzetno nisku cijenu za Studio verziju. Nitko ne spominje mogućnost otplate na obroke, recimo u šest obroka. Hvala.
You mention the name Davinci Resolve 20 and talk about Magic Mask. This name reminds me of the free version. I have the free version, and it doesn’t have Magic Mask 2, nor any older versions. Can it be somehow integrated into the free version? I am unable to pay this extremely low price for the Studio version in the country where I live (RH – Croatia). No one mentions the possibility of paying in installments, say in six installments. Thank you.

First, thanks for providing an English translation. Magic Mask, like all the AI features in Resolve, is reserved for the Studio version. As for whether that can be integrated into a future release of the free version of Resolve, that’s something that the developers would need to do. I like the idea of installment payments – and, again, this would be something to discuss with the Blackmagic sales team via their website.
Prvo, hvala što ste osigurali engleski prijevod. Magic Mask, kao i sve značajke AI u Resolveu, rezerviran je za Studio verziju. Što se tiče toga može li se to integrirati u buduće izdanje besplatne verzije Resolvea, to je nešto što bi programeri trebali učiniti. Sviđa mi se ideja plaćanja na rate – i, opet, ovo bi bilo nešto o čemu bih razgovarao s prodajnim timom Blackmagica putem njihove web stranice.
