    Default make me beautiful

    hi there
    iv got a little bit of tricky HD beauty cleanup to do. manually painting out dimples and blemishes was easy enough, and a degrain and some keys to bring back the detail has helped

    i was wondering if any of you genius's could suggest any more cunning techniques to minimise the manual painting as i have alot of footage to get through. who's the smartest!

    cheers,
    alex

    Hi,

    that the two tips i use for that type of job.

    1- use "dust and scratch" or "median" to smooth the skin and after recover
    the detail with a "find edge" in a set matte to recover the original detail.

    2- use a bandpass in overlay to reduce skin grain and other imperfections.
    play with the amount to invert the effect and make a old lady work to.

    Cheers

    i simply make multiple fine garbage masks and blur em out [dependin on the artifact to remove f course]...render with a blend matte and then use that matte to add some grain back on...quick easy way and still looks good...thailand post houses which do the best skin/beauty commercial treatment in asia/pacific also use the same technique.
