I've been editing these gaming videos for my son and I think I might finally bite the bullet and buy the studio version, that transcribe feature looks amazing and I had no idea I could stack timelines, that's amazing thanks so much!
@@AD-hq2uz+1 for that, the speed editor (and actually *learning* the cut page for that initial cutting of the footage before going into heavy editing) is a game changer - I made a video on it on my channel that did quite well, and due to popular demand I’m working on a beast of a «when to use the cutpage/when to use the edit page (and when to get the full featured editing keyboard)»-video right now, adjusting ones editing workflow to «fit» the speed editor eliminates the need for double timelines and all that stuff, since the double timeline is just a manual and less streamlined version of the source tape and cut page combo :)
Thanks Alex just got back into editing again. Davinci has been my go to video editor for some time. I was editing some footage this weekend and ended up buying Studio. Studio is out of this world. For any help I always use you for reference and it has brought me a long way.
So helpful! It always makes my day when I check UA-cam and YOU have a new tutorial for us. Your tutorials are always informative, concise and so helpful! Thank you, Alex! You are very appreciated!!!
Hi! My favourite productivity trick is to rename the clips based on metadata. We do a lot of long form videos with multiple cameras. (Think conferences etc.) I setup the metadata with Cam ID, shot, scene, shot type etc. and then use % function in clip rename to bring this into the name of the clip. It's very useful to know at a glance which clips are part of the same section of the event and whether they are wide, tight, in front, rhs, etc. A lot of the metadata can be setup in bulk, and the BMD cameras even fill in some before it gets off the camera so it's not as time consuming as it initially appears. Then you can rename all the clips in one hit and it's like magic just watching all the clips sort themselves out into a sequence that makes sense to the project.
Awesome! About the shortkeys.. i in, o out and p is like insert.. that combined with q, what I now learned can make everything even faster.. I love your channel!! Thank you for the insides
Hey Alex @4:35 how do you do your cut on the timeline without your video? For example in a video like this one where the majority of the video is you on camera? Do you bring in the entire A roll with the video and follow the same process?
The usage of a second or third timeline is the single most needed feature why I switched from final cut. It is so useful to cut a b-roll timeline and chose like I chose candys from a candy shop :D Also with transcripted A Roll you can simply integrate an ChatGPT workflow to summarize a video and give you the exact quotes which cements your statements. Video Editing is so much fun these days
I've been using Resolve for a couple years and you and Casey have helped me the most. HOWEVER, this is the single best video I've ever seen for efficient workflow to edit in the timeline. Thanks!
Mr Alex Tech and Casey Farris have taught me so much about video editing. I owe a lot of my channel's success so far to them. Please donate to their fundraiser!
Thanks a million for the above -especially the keyboard settings! (yup, MrAndyLazy). So many of your tutorials seem to somehow appear at the very moment I'm thinking, to get this project done much faster and easier would be if I just learned about ....ahhhh, yeah, that ;)
Have they fixed on speech detection the ability to delete a single word from the transcript, ie. uh, um, yeah. It wouldn’t work when I first tried beta so I had to go back to 18 studio
Hi Alex, great tips as always! On topic I'd like to see you cover is workflows for Picture-in-Picture videos. I do this a lot for my tutorials, and I think this is very popular with streamers, too. I have 1 video track recording my desktop, and 1 videotrack from my webcam. In general it is pretty simple. But one limitation of Davinci is that I can't apply adjustment clips to just my PIP or just my desktop footage. The adjustment clip has to affect both. As a result, I feel the way I need to manually do zooms for the individual tracks is inefficient. Anyway, just an idea. Thanks for your videos.
1:57 Is there a way for this to happen? I need to download and record assets or screenshots all the time to demonstrate something in my clients' videos, and it would be very practical if after I recorded the screen, the video was automatically imported into DaVinci. Premiere Pro has a plugin to do exactly this, does DaVinci have something too?
I use I, O and P for appending. Q and E for frame forward and backward (before I had a speed editor it was really handy) A + S are zoom in and out, D is Delete. C and V are the blade and selecetion tool. 1, 2 and 3 are used for multicam workflow so I wouldn't recommend changing those.
A way to speed up this workflow even further is to go 'Edit > Switch to timeline after edit' (Alt+Shift+Q). This toggles the switch to timeline after edit, so it doesn't occur, which saves you a keystroke or two along the way. It's also how things work in the Cut page by default.
Do You know if there is an option to use shortcuts (similar to insert / overwrite) while using dual / pancake timeline? So when You select clip on upper timeline, instead of drag and drop You hit shortcut and clip appear on a choosen track on lower timeline. Greeetings
For the part where you were marking the in and out on the audio, how would you then sync that with the video? Is there a way to sync the audio with the video and only look at the waveforms
I'm getting an azeron controller. 1 analog, 1 scroll wheel, 15 mouse-ckick style buttons that are all simultaneously millimeters from your fingers in a lovely hand rest. This is going to solve my desire for a dedicated editing tool like black magic sells with the wheel-style and limited and awkward looking buttons
Great video. I thought I try out the transcription (I am using Studio on a Mac Book Pro Intel version) I don't have any of the icons in the transcribe window video after transcription. Am I missing a setting somewhere? i.e. all I have is 3 dots at top right corner
hi if i do 2 timelines like the last thing you show. is there a way to drag the clip to the second timeline without it stay in the first one. so i know what has been used and what not? its for long clips
Can I create a template from an edit, where i can save the actions made on tracks, along with FX, Transforms and all characteristics as a reusable template for future use where I can simply pull ne media into the tracks and then automatically the edit are applied?
I make folders for broll clips and within those folders are compound clips where i cut the original shot down to the most usable part. Then the folders are named for the kind of shot e.g. outside wide shot, inside wide shot, inside detail shot. Then i add the broll to the timeline using the place on top function which i have set as a shortcut on the keyboard. This is the quickest way. But i wish there was a quicker way. Like i wish AI could just add the broll over the cuts for me with a click of a button. Any idea how to make this whole process faster?
what is the most efficient way to update your media folder? because i keep adding footage, sfx, music, on my folder everything I get to think of something nice. do I just keep on drag and drop them all the time in the Media tab in the respective bins? what if I have a multiple files newly added to my folders?
How would you copy between two different timelines from two different projects in Davinci? I cant find out an eazy way to copy-paste graded/cut/edited clips that are on timeline in different project than one that I have open right now.
Literally just copy it on the timeline, close the project (don't close resolve, just open the project manager and switch to the new project), click the timeline and paste. Alternatively, do a quick search on UA-cam for the Dynamic Project Switching feature. That makes it easy too!
Is anyone else having issues adding transitions in 19 beta 3? I've got some footage that I cut and then made shorter by dragging the handles (so there is definitely extra frames), but I can't add ANY transitions 😞 I'm no video editing expert, but transitions are something I've done on every video I've made so I don't "think" I'm doing anything obviously wrong...... But open to suggestions in case I am being daft!

thank you for this one. this is the content we are looking for how to be an efficient and effective editor for beginners
I've been editing these gaming videos for my son and I think I might finally bite the bullet and buy the studio version, that transcribe feature looks amazing and I had no idea I could stack timelines, that's amazing thanks so much!
off topic but, what an amazing dad your son has! you're amazing
I agree to both posts above me. Absolutely do it! You'll regret not doing it earlier! Also, you rock as a Dad!
I bought it and I don't regret it
Buy the speed editor it comes with a license and the speed editor is nice. 395$ I think

This is a life saver. I've been looking how to edit faster for months. This is definitely what I was looking for.
This is the kind of content we need. Better and efficient way how to edit stuffs
Always so worth the time; straight to the point and makes ya know you can do it. Thank you for the work, Alex, always the best.

worthy cause man! and great video. Always appreciate your content.
Thank you, Alex, for this very helpful video. As a newbie to DaVinci Resolve (coming from FCP), I really appreciate these “tips and pointers” videos.😊

Alex - you're the man!
Heart support❤ Great tips!
Yo your first tip was awesome I had no idea I could drag an drop and preserve my folder tree MINDBLOW!
Great as always
Thanks Alex
Cool stuff as usual!
amazing tutorial @mrAlextech you always doing a great video of us here to learn 🔥
good video, some of those things ive figured it myself (second part of the video), I had no idea for transcription, really cool !
some useful tips, thanks alex

Thank you Alex. This will certainly help me to speed up my editing.
Multiple timelines, very cool!!!
Didn't know about the source cut page trick.
Also I really need to give transcribe another try.
I save a lot of time by using the the keyboard shortcuts in my streamdeck.
thank you for the freebies i have been able to download - still using a few of them! Almost had to buy the graphs one the other day.
You're amazing!
Love these kinds of videos 😊❤️
I use two timelines when I'm making my short for YT from my main video
Another wonderful video from Alex that cares so much about us the video editing community. Thank you 💝💖💝

super helpful i love this.
Thank you the second time line on edit page helped a bunch. How do u get your clips to automatically fill in the gaps when cutting sections out?
Thank you 😊
I use I, O and P for appending. Q and E for frame forward and backward (before I had a speed editor it was really handy)
A + S are zoom in and out, D is Delete. C and V are the blade and selecetion tool.
1, 2 and 3 are used for multicam workflow so I wouldn't recommend changing those.
I also mapped those to a Naga X mouse so basicly I can edit with only one hand and scratch my balls with the other....
Thank you ,video is very helpful

awesome features
Very cool. Thank you sir
Thanks for sharing!
This is the way!
Nice inspo 🙌🏼 maybe is there a Option for a dual Timeline in the cutpage Like in the editpage. could be interesting 😁

If you buy Resolve Studio how long does it last? Like if you buy one version does it carry over to the next one
Yup! It just keeps rolling over onto the next version
@@MrAlexTech that's really good. That transcription feature is nuts. I might get it if I start podcasting again. Thanks bro
hi
if i do 2 timelines like the last thing you show. is there a way to drag the clip to the second timeline without it stay in the first one.
so i know what has been used and what not?
its for long clips
Can I create a template from an edit, where i can save the actions made on tracks, along with FX, Transforms and all characteristics as a reusable template for future use where I can simply pull ne media into the tracks and then automatically the edit are applied?

So you're the new Q!
Is anyone else having issues adding transitions in 19 beta 3?
