Add a Magnetic Mask for color correction in Final Cut Pro for Mac
The Magnetic Mask is an AI-enhanced mask effect that easily isolates people, objects, and shapes from the background without a green screen or time-consuming manual tracking or rotoscoping. You can use the Magnetic Mask to precisely control what part of the image is affected by a color correction effect.
Final Cut Pro can then track the item’s movement in the rest of the clip using machine learning and apply the mask (and the color correction effect) to the item in each frame of the clip automatically.
See Add a Magnetic Mask to a video effect in Final Cut Pro for Mac.
