I’m hitting like before seeing anything in the video itself. Casey, the Davinci Resolve and indie-filmmaker communities owe you many beers. Massive respect for all you do!
I started the Zero to Hero course, and the support from Groundcontrol continues to surprise me. I'm totally sure this VFX western course will be a perfect introduction, showing just how much Groundcontrol cares for filmmakers.
Having tried to watch others, I can say this is easily the best Fusion to Edit page tutorial on You Tube. Thanks for ditching any background music, and sharing your knowledge. The short cuts shown were as valuable as the work. Well done. 👏
Yo Casey! Dude, you’ve been like a total legend, man! We’ve soaked up so much from your vids over the years. I mean, who doesn’t wanna dive into that Action, Sci-Fi, supernatural vibe with all those particles, explosions, and epic VFX? Videocopilot was the bomb back in the day, especially for After Effects, but now everyone’s trying to ride the Houdini wave - except, bro, it’s crazy expensive! You dropped some sick tutorials, and we were hyped thinking you’d keep it rolling. Then boom, you swerved back into motion graphics. Super rad too, don’t get me wrong, but a lot of us were stoked about Fusion being added to Resolve. For a bunch of us, it was like, “Yes! Finally, we can mess with VFX without selling our boards!” We plan our lives around these tutorials, man, they’re like fuel for our creativity. Keep killin’ it, dude. We need more of that next-level stuff! Peace out!
My God... I'm only 10% in and you have answered a lot off my editing and vfx questions... Thank you Casey..I started of my resolve journey with only colorgrading and it started with you and now I'm learning fusion and the whole process with you...can't thank you enough!
I'm sooo glad and thankful! You, Patrick, Mr. Alex & the "Davinici Dudes" do an incredible job and bring the DVR-Community miles forward. Love you, guys!
stayed all the way through - great content, Casey. It really is a great and thorough course - I managed to pick up a number of tips from it! Thank you.
Honestly perfect timing for me- been watching a bunch of your videos recently for a short, and this essentially answered every question I had that I was trying to stitch together between your other videos. Thanks Casey!
Hey man, started watching when you released video but was so overwhelmed with my own job and later editing for own business and working in fusion, just yesterday i finished one of harder animations i worked on from scratch, took me some time cause of older generation CPU but in end it works well. Anyways i finally completed course, nice to see someone use similair ways around fusion and timeline to help himself. Great video in all means, even i've took something out of it, literally for begginers and even experienced people can learn something from it. I hope it reaches alot of people who want to learn fusion, cause this is probably one of best ones out there, full support bro💪💪
Always the best Resolve guides. Been following Casey awhile now. Thank you so much for your insight, lessons, longevity, and to the point videos. Cheers.
This is one of the best fusion tutorial I've seen! the practicality behind every step is soo obvious and mind opening. Thank you. BTW i stayed to the end lol
u can hit SHIFT+4 to switch to the EDIT page and SHIFT+5 to switch to the FUSION page... it comes handy specially when your navigation icon isn't turned on..
Man Thank you for this video Casey!!! I just started the video but I already know this is going to be insanely good! Also how did you record the Audio of the short? it sounds very good! Appreciate the hard work and keep it up!
Awesome course. I always wonder how to color grade raw footage when I need some VFX... I want RAW for color grading, but RAW is too heavy for VFX so do color correction like tint, color temp, or ISO and any other RAW settings first, than I export all VFX clips to EXR or ProRes HQ, than I do all my VFX and than final color grading. Is it good workflow or not Casey?
Great video, the best on UA-cam, but I have a question, what should I do if a VFX video is shorter than the main shot, and it ends earlier, how do I make it last the same time as the main shot?
Ha Ha... the first time I had to composite a dust/smoke element in a feature, I made it semi-transparent just like your smoke. Then Scott Stokdyk the vfx sup on the film, Spider-man 3, said it needed to be much more opaque and darker. I say make it more opaque and darker. lolol
Hi, quick one, could you have used the "Object Removal" for the Van? Yip made it to the end. Big take away for me, Opening the "Clips" to navigate between fusion clips - Learn something new every time - Thanks
For paint outs like at around 01:15:00 ish I normally preffer to export out a still and do that in a raster editor like Affinity Photo or Krita. What are your toughts on that?
Amazing tutorial, I have a question, please help. once i masked person with tracking then on color page added defocus background on same first node, but instead to have defocus on one video i have all videos on entire project affected. A bit struggle here, any ideas what is wrong ?
This is great, but you could also explain for example what color space to put the other media in, for example images, that is not as simple as srgb because it looks weird
By default, with these settings It'd bring things in as rec.709. Which should work fine for most assets and images. It does look a little weird sometimes, but you can color correct it. You can also change the input tone mapping in the color management to something you like. It takes some time to play around and get it how you like.
@@CaseyFaris Thanks, i realized something now, in imput color space, for some reason the default in my project was set to "Same as timeline" instead of "Project - Rec 709 (Scene)" that's why the images i tried to use looked totally off, now it looks like it should.

Thanks for your dedication to Fusion. Quality Fusion content on UA-cam is rare, compared to AE. Please keep them coming.
This is your best “how to do VFX” tutorial yet. Simply brilliant! Thank you so much, Casey.

Super Merci
I was watching for 5 minutes and I was halfway though.
Thanks good movie congratulations
Casey: "These VFX elements are usually shot on black"
FX Artists: 😵😵
The link at ActionVFX - "claim assets" doesn't work? Thnx Casey, great course.
Привет всем я хочу сказать спасибо этому человеку за то что он лучший
Thanks!
You bet! Thanks for the super!
Thanks for the course but I was wondering if I Can follow along if I still prefer to use DaVinci 16?
Yes, but color management and a few fx will be different. I'd reccomend upgrading to 19 if you can.
Great video, the best on UA-cam, but I have a question, what should I do if a VFX video is shorter than the main shot, and it ends earlier, how do I make it last the same time as the main shot?
As a cross-eyed cowboy myself, I am deeply offended! I demand a re-shoot of this video. You missed capturing my good side... both of them!
🤣
😂
can i know how much time did it take u to make this but in the movie version not the youtube version
Ha Ha... the first time I had to composite a dust/smoke element in a feature, I made it semi-transparent just like your smoke. Then Scott Stokdyk the vfx sup on the film, Spider-man 3, said it needed to be much more opaque and darker. I say make it more opaque and darker. lolol

also, what tablet do you use to edit with?
TY
Yes
Man - I love you hahahaha
There are so many AE tutorials. I wish someone would have a series on how to convert AE tutorials to Fusion.
Are the hats composed in the shot?
When i download the dc_vfx media and unzip it I can’t import it into my iPad DaVinci project as it don’t show up is this because it is in .mov ?
damn, that halo sword in the background...
Amazing what is possible
Could you tell me which lens you used?
For paint outs like at around 01:15:00 ish I normally preffer to export out a still and do that in a raster editor like Affinity Photo or Krita. What are your toughts on that?
I want to select specific clips among the many clips scattered in the time line. How do I select specific clips?
what does the time speed node do for our paint node? Could we do it without it?
Im having trouble with the Action VFX clips they don't show a transparent background only black, how can I overcome this, TIA
The 'Input Color Space' option doesn't appear when I right-click on my clip. How can I access that option?
HEY CASIEEEEE LET ME KNOWW CAN I USE MY OWN EDIT VIDEO OF THIS FOOTAGES FOR COMMERCIAL LIKE MY SOCIALS ?
Hi,my planar tracker gets freeze in between while tracking,so how do i fix this?
Not able to browse the assets
Do I need to buy Resolve Studio to follow this tutorial?
Nope free works for most of it
@@CaseyFaris thanks man 🤌

You're probably working on the timeline nodes is my guess. Switch to clip nodes.
sir . i have tired so many time to download your video footage but always failed
