Set skin tone based on an eye dropper to automatically adjust visuals for skin tone

Apply your own LUTs to visuals in Descript.

Support gradients not just solid colors as a fill type

We need face smoothing effects, much like we can do on Zoom with Touch Up My Appearance. It can be very light, but it is still nice to have. Zoom has the best one I've seen so far, so I would love seeing at least that.

Bring log footage from popular cameras up to Rec 709 within Descript using built-in LUTs

Some visibility for the status of effects that are processing. Applying something like Eye Contact to a long clip seems to take a long time. A %completed or estimated time remaining would be a huge quality of life bonus. It would help me make decisions like "should I get up and walk away for a bit?" or "Is this so long that maybe I should break this into smaller clips?"

Ability to animate text individually or in group, also tilt and chage size. A template would be awesome (Hormozi style)

Much like you now change were the eyes are looking, could you sync the lip movement with past examples of that word being spoken?

Allow arbitrary masking of layers

Sometimes I don't like to remove filler words because it doesn't feel natural or it creates too many noticeable edit points. But I don't want this to appear in the captions either. Would love to see this as a possibility or I may stick to premiere pro just for the closed captions
