This beginner overview presents the speaker's personal ranking of AI tools in DaVinci Resolve Studio. It explains where to find the controls and how to use them in editing, audio cleanup and compositing.

The audio section distinguishes Voice Isolation, Dialog Leveler, Music Remixer and Dialog Separation. The speaker recommends starting Voice Isolation around 50-60 percent. Scene Cut Detection gets both a timeline workflow and a more adjustable Media workflow, where users can change the detection threshold and correct cuts manually.

Face retouching covers texture adjustments, blemish removal, reshaping and age changes, with several additions attributed to version 21. The speaker warns that strong profile turns can break face tracking. Depth-based effects can flicker around hair and fine detail; the suggested workflow applies noise reduction and renders the clip before generating the depth map.

Other demonstrations cover Super Scale, Smart Reframe for vertical crops, Speed Warp slow motion and editable automatic subtitles. The speaker recommends choosing the subtitle language manually and rendering demanding effects in place. IntelliTrack examples attach text to a tracked point and stabilize footage around a surfer. Magic Mask closes the ranking, with the caveat that object separation can still require keying and manual rotoscoping.
