How to use Inverse blur mode?

How to, why and when you would use the inverse blur mode.

Invert blur is commonly used on TV when they are filming in the street, and they blur a child or officer walking by for example. Like the auto-blur, you can use the auto-tracking feature with the Inverse Blur mode. The target this time is the person you wish to redact instead of the person you wish to be seen clearly. 

  1. On the right-hand side panel at the bottom click the tick box labelled ‘Inverse’ 927F9922-A008-47FA-AD33-4F98317ACED0_4_5005_c
  2. On the right-hand side click ‘Auto-Tracking’ 
  3. Then click ‘New’ again on the right-hand side righthand pannel - auto tracking
  4. Go to the main section of the screen where the video is 
  5. Click once on your target, this starts the auto-tracking  
  6. On the right-hand side panel click ‘Save’
  7. Click ‘Next’, this will allow you to change the degree of blur on the target 2nd work screen - next
  8. Click ‘Export’ once you have completed all your required redactions to save within your secure environment

Top tips: 

You can track more than one person by going through the same process and starting a ‘New Track’ before clicking ‘Export’. When you click ‘Export’ the clips will be merged to allow you to see multiple people blurred whilst others are in clear view.
