How to use Contrast & Pivot in Davinci Resolve 17 ?

pixelmove.com

In this Davinci Resolve 17 tutorial, you will learn how contrast and pivot work together by watching the waveform of the video. first, use contrast then pivot will be activated.

The pivot value is by default is set to 0.435 because it put contrast in the midtone by default. in simplest terms use contrast as desired then pivot by watching on the face. Pivot shifts the effect of contrast in shadow, Midtone, Highlight. this depends on you.
