How to blur a new face or object
Learn how to blur new faces or objects here. Blurring new faces/objects is when you add new tracks.
Adding a new redaction box just adds a single redaction box to the selected frame. The individual will only be blurred in that particular frame.
To add a redaction box, you can:
Draw and drag your box in the desired frame.
Right-click in the desired frame and click ‘Add redaction box’.
Click A on your keyboard.
Reposition/resize the box to fit your requirements.
NOTE: With a new redaction box, the individual/object will only be blurred in that particular frame.
Add redaction box
Right-click in the correct frame and click ‘Add track’. If your Entities Panel already has an Individual Entity view open, the new track you’re about to create will be added to that entity. If not, it will be added to its own entity.
A yellow box will appear. Reposition/resize the box to fit your requirements.
On the right will appear the start frame number (i.e. the current frame you are in), and a + sign next to the end frame.
Another yellow box has to be added to the desired end frame to form the start and end points of the track.
Skip forward to the desired end frame (i.e. where you want the track to end).
Right-click in the correct end frame and click ‘Add track end’ or, on the right, click the + sign next to the End frame section.
Another yellow box will appear. Reposition/resize the box to fit your requirements.
You’ll see the start and end frame numbers in the individual track view on the right.
Choose from the drop-down menu what type of track you’d like:
Track face = track a face as they move in the video.
Track object = track a number plate/object as they move in the video.
Zone = track a specific fixed area of the video screen.
Click ‘Start’ to begin the processing of the track. Whilst it is processing, it’ll appear in the ‘Processing’ tab and turn purple. Once it is purple, you cannot change the box’s position/size.
Once the track has been processed, it’ll turn orange.
