Quick Tip - Using the Magic Mask with the Planar Tracker in DaVinci Resolve Fusion

In this quick tip tutorial we will take a look at a way we can use the Magic Mask in DaVinci Fusion to occlude objects we don't want to track with the Planar Tracker. We will use the Bitmap node to turn our alpha, from the magic mask, into a mask that the planar tracker will recognize. Doing so can help with the accuracy of the track. Lastly we will finish off the shot by putting text behind the biker as he moves through the shot.
