    VIDEO CORRECTION: Smart Reframe is in DaVinci Resolve 17 and it is excellent at resizing source materials to different aspect ratios. In particular it allows you define an area of the image to track and keep centralized. Also, the reframe function works by creating keyframes for the position transform meaning you can edit the movements later. Quite powerful!

      @Gurdeep Makha yes it is over and I got my certificate (passed the test). Your best option now is to go the blackmagic design website, to the training section, and you download the 500 pages pdf file, with the 13gb media files FOR FREE and you follow step by step, Once you finish all the lessons in the book, and make sure to work with them, you can take the certification test as well. (85% to pass)
      Else, head to one of their certified trainers, like rippletraining.com, but the courses their are not free.
      Or stay on youtube and watch some videos, the only thing here, stuff are not organized, kinda messy, if you want to just learn, it is fine, if you want to apply for the test, i do not recommend youtube.
      Best of luck!

      Well Tom, where do I start🤣. Davinci Resolve has everything that I need for my style of editing. The three things that were holding me back were. Not having the Magnetic Timeline that I love in Fcpx. Second not be able to use my 3rd party plugins. I truly believe those two things are keeping a lot of Final Cut users from switching. Once I started using Resolve, more, and more. I found myself not missing the magnetic timeline as much. I can still shoot my project over to Fcpx if I really need one of my 3rd party plugins. The third and last thing that held me back was. I really did not want to take the time to learn it. But I'm so glad I took some personal time & learned everything about Resolve that would fit my workflow. Plus, I can still use my Motion 5 projects in Davinci Resolve as well.

    8:15 This becomes even easier with multicam clips. Simply let resolve sync all clips of a scene based on timecode and waveform and switch between them with your numpad. Color grading isn't as straight-forward anymore with this but it's manageable and makes the timeline a lot cleaner with only one clip for all cameras and recorders you had shooting at the same time.

    • @Superjeanmarc
      @Superjeanmarc Рік тому

      Yes it has, but its so much limited... First there is no quick keyboard short cut to bring the keyword window and second, and most importantly, you can't assign keywords to multiples selections inside a single clip.. As I said in a previous comment, this is absolutely killer feature to have when editing documentary work, where very long takes are common..When you have a 15 min clip containing a lot of scenes or situations going from a two shot of a conversation to close up cut aways etc.... (cameraman did not cut to keep sound rolling or avoid missing a spontaneous event) ... it's just amazing. Also, if you keyword say a 5 seconds selection of a longer clip, when clicking on the keyword "bin", your 5 seconds selection will appear as a new, 5 sec clip, a bit like when you create a sub clip in Resolve, except you STILL can extend it or reduce it, by moving it's IN and OUT points.

      @@FilmEditingPro I disagree. I don't like the fact that Resolve is like using five different programs with different layouts.. The Adobe programs all have a similar GUI and similar way of working. Resolve is like switching between Avid Media Composer and Garage Band. I admit the Lumetri Color Panel is not the greatest but it is just a panel in Premiere Pro as opposed to using a totally different software program just to do color correction. The audio is just anther panel in Premiere Pro as well. With Resolve nine times out of ten you will switch over to Fairlight. Rather than integrate Fairlight into Resolve's Editing GUI it was tacked on as a separate program. I like Resolve but I think the GUI could be a lot better.

    One additional con for AVID users is that when you bring a sequence (via AAF) with 3D Picture in Picture elements in it to Resolve, the effect isn't recognized and you're left with the top-most video layer of the composition. Otherwise, DaVinci is really good at translating Timewarps and Resizes.

      That is a huge con. Basically Avid has no logic with using multylayerd effects upon nested ones. It is just jarring how Avid just does whatever it wants at some point and that trying to make an effect as you want it can be sometimes complicated. In DR you have to find work arounds too, but at least they work on a logical base.

      Yes yes yes. Resolve eats up timewarps which are much quicker to do in Avid. Dozens of less clicks and fussing with the lack of ability to freeze within a Resolve retime. When I first learned there is no real zero in a retime, you have to cut and use a freeze frame then go back to the retiming in another cut. Very frustrating to do. In Avid, you curve to zero, hold it as long as you want and curve back up. Resolve's retiming should be like that. But, coming from Avid's retime from an AAF and using Resolve's optical flow is eons better quality so best of both worlds if you edit primarily in Avid. Optical flow is slow but you've already timed everything out so no guesswork, just render time.

    You came up in my recommendations on UA-cam, working on my first feature, nearly everything will be done in Resolve. I will be directing, cameraman, editing, VFX, sound design, colour work and delivering as DCP for festivals and a couple of test screenings at a local independent cinema. Blender is going to be used for some of the vfx into Fusion for compositing. I am in two minds on using fairlight for the audio and music side. I have Nuendo so will use that. This is a totally No budget movie, all the equipment is owned by the crew. It is a passion project, we have no delusions of getting it out as a money maker. But I am determined to make it the best that we can. So I am really pleased to have stumbled onto another channel that will have a positive affect on our journey.

    I love DaVinci Resolve. But, as a Sony user, I record everything in 10-bit color, and that is where the free version becomes unusable... resolve won't even let you view the 10-bit AXVS-I clips. Once you buy the license (or one of the hardware tools, which is a better deal), you can start to work with your 10-bit footage.
    The real love with Resolve comes when you start using the speed editor and the color panels. To me, that is what obliterates the competition.... well, not to mention that the stabilization is very good and runs FAST, and that DaVinci essentially never crashes, and that you don't even have to save your edit, and that the color page is actually proper color grading, and that the audio panel is an integrated tool, etc, etc, etc... sigh
    Once you learn resolve (which is not super easy), you will feel like Premiere Pro was a toy.

    Recently gave Resolve editing a shot on some decent sized projects. It's so great in so many ways. I don't like all the mousing around. It's fast technically but doesn't particularly "feel" accurate like trimming in Avid is so making fine adjustments ends up overall slower. But, for constructing quick assemblies especially per scene getting them close enough and porting them over into Avid for offlining is actually very easy and considerably faster for once in a lifetime. It has almost everything good going for it.
    Things I miss.
    - A solid trim mode. Avid's is just hands down the best. Premiere's dynamic trim is okay, Resolve's is actually terrible (super clunky unless you like precise mousing). The biggest thing is it doesn't release trim mode like you can in Avid by clicking on the TC track. That for me is a huge time saver while refining an edit.
    - Keyboard functionality without dozens of modifier combinations. Alt, ctrl and shift are all you really should need for cutting.
    - Snapping via one button hold. Hate that you have to toggle it.
    - True track based edit manipulation. Resolve is quasi track based even in edit mode.
    - Roughly managing audio levels is much faster in Avid mixer largely because you can apply per track and in/out and not have to copy paste things.
    - Extend edit that isn't schizophrenic.
    - Speed and retime manipulation are so much easier in Avid. Hell it's easier in After Effects. However, Resolve's optical flow and stabilization are much much better.
    - Forced rendering that doesn't create a mixdown that needs to be swapped back to the OG before adjusting. Sure, Avid creates mini mixdowns for renders just as Premiere does but adjusting them in Resolve after forcing it to render sucks and creates a mess. It's auto render is nice but when I'm focusing on a certain area tweaking timings, it's a chore to wait the several seconds for Resolve to start to background render what I actually want. I could go somewhere else in the timeline and do things while I wait but No. That's silly. My brain is focused on the thing I am doing. Waiting for any of the options to keep up is phoooosh.. trying at times. Wouldn't want a client in the room explaining to them about magic computer ghosts while it's rendering something I don't actually care about instead of what I do want done first. Seems okay for a grading session but not for cutting as fast as the brains in the room are moving.
    Going back to Resolve for polish and grading is how it's always been but it's really a very very useful tool to help minimize the tedious work before the edit and spend more time actually shaping the feels. For example. Syncing external audio in Resolve is _worlds_ faster and less tedious. Doing a nice one light LUT before busting out proxies makes it so there is no processing at all for offline color in Avid while cutting. Smooth like butter.
    Long story short: I have started beginning my projects in Resolve, Proxying out the footage, slapping scenes together with all the shots I think I will want -- face find is truly a treat, popping over those timelines and actually cutting in Avid, get approval and off to ProTools for sounds, back to Resolve as it has been for a long time now for final tweaks, grading and polish. I have yet to deliver to broadcast or any streaming service out of Resolve. Other guys do that so I'm not sure if it's better or not.
    Can't believe I didn't know about how easy round tripping to Avid and back is years ago or I'd have been doing it all this time. I've met tons of editors and no one has ever suggested this. Really great stuff.

    while Resolve's feature set is great, it didn't work for me while i was doctoring 2 feature films edited in Resolve. It was just too buggy and slow when the project is big. When edit versions were about 3-4, it was acceptable, but when it went over 10 versions of feature film in the same project, it started to be super slow, driving me mad. When i got back to Premiere I was so happy and relieved. In my experience, one can tell Resolve wasn't designed as an editing application but made into one. For now at least. I sincerely hope they will fix it as the software itself is amazing

    • @JanKlier
      @JanKlier 3 роки тому +10

      @@FilmEditingPro That can easily happen when you use a disk database instead of a Postgres SQL server. A disk database is a large folder of XML files. On every save Resolve will create a complete new set and then delete the old ones. The bigger the project the more time it will take to do all that. Disk databases are fine for some quick projects, but any serious use definitely should switch to a Postgres DB for saving projects.
      But can easily become a problem with many NLEs. Premiere has problems too on very large projects, because everything is saved in a single XML file. Avid has a bit of an advantage because each bin is it's own file and you can close them when they're not in use.
      Another issue to look out for is version compatibility. During major version upgrades, the database needs to be upgraded, those projects can no longer be opened with older versions. And if you have databases that are more than 1-2 versions back, they may not open either. Resolves requires a rigorous archive strategy to avoid data loss. Not as foolproof as Avid on that front.

    I'm sticking to grading only. I had to use DaVinci as my sole editor for almost two years and am glad to say I'm finally back in FCPX. I just can't get used to DaVinci. Editing with it feels way too slow for me, and I've had the studio version since Christmas 2019. As soon as covid hit, it became my only option for editing. I was not pleased. You'd think after two years I'd just be used to it now, but I'm not. It took me a week in FCPX to remember everything I liked about it. The timeline is the worst offender for me. I just hate Resolve's timeline. Colour grading is amazing, and that's literally all I use it for now. I grade and export, that's it. Everything else is handled in Final Cut.

I think if they make possible in edit window to switch between Source and Record windows like in Avid and make more precise in and out points will be big upgrade, and most important to work in net with other editors and vfx, and sound designer will be step that put this software next to Avid in professional editing, trim tools need polish too, just my opinion . I saw in Blackmagic page that they can make some net working with Avid Nitris servers but is too expensive, i want to see their solution of this. I working with Avid for 20 years and i love Resolve.One more thing, so many panels for different works somethimes going to bugs and making program heavy, think all that all functions and tools from cut page can be implemented in edit, one panel less better performance and more clean workspace. All my little projects i done in Davinci just to learn it and this is what i think about it.

I would assign commands to certain keys through the keyboard command editor, and DaVinci would simply ignore them, even after quitting the software and rebooting everything. What's up with that, Resolve??
