    Description:
    Why is everyone switching to DaVinci resolve?
    I asked the same question myself and thought **what the heck**, its free for the lite version…I downloaded it….and boy was I blown away…..
    The sense of control I felt as I dove into the software…separate pages for separate tasks like editing, audio and even effects.. I could even edit keyframes?!
    It felt like I was in a new world…
    now I didn't just switch to DaVinci resolve because I switched to PC.. although that would make sense because I can't use FCPX on PC…but…DaVinci resolve was actually the final nail in the coffin in switching to PC in the first place.
    And final cut pro is great don't get me wrong, I have used it for like 8 or so years now as my main editing software but…DaVinci is just better in my opinion
    so today I wanted to share with you my 5 main reasons why I switched over to Davinci Resolve from Final Cut Pro X.
    #1 Better Keyframing
    #2 Track Based Editing
    #3 Pro Color Tools
    #4 Effects & Fusion
    #5 More Control
    Bonus : Live Saving

      @@artistblanco I think people should use the editing software that makes them feel the most creative! Also there’s zero harm in trying Resolve. The free version is absolutely insane.
      I’d just try it, and see if you feel like you enjoy the process of editing even more over there.
      Also I see no harm in using both for different use cases. Have a quick UA-cam video you’re pushing out in the next few hours? Maybe use FCP. Have a deep narrative project with branching storylines and complex color grades? Resolves definitely the better option there.

    • @willhallmedia
      @willhallmedia  7 днів тому +1

      I 1000% agree with this! They both are awesome programs. It just all depends on your preference and needs that will subjectively make one better than the other. I should have elaborated more on this in the video, but there is nothing wrong with trying them all out!
      And, you could totally use both. (One time payment for each program too? Can’t beat that!)

      People like you The Final Cut Bro and Dylan John and Ryan Nagle are the only people keeping Final Cut Pro alive. Seriously. Only reason why i hate FCPX is because we know Apple can be better and you guys deserve better. I still watch your videos even if I dont use FCPX anymore lol. Thank you Mr Bates.

    Honestly at this point the magnetic timeline is the only thing keeping me from deep diving into Resolve.
    Please!!! Please Blackmagic make this happen.
    Keep the tracks but make it possible to link clips together so if you move one the others go with it. Also if I drop a new clip in the others move out of the way.

      Believe it or not! It wasn’t too difficult, the portal/warp transition is actually built into davinci resolve which is crazy!
      For the screen transition, I just matched my camera footage with the on screen footage to make the “pop out of screen” portion more seamless and added a dissolve transition. I could make a video on it or maybe a short one day 🤝

    Lol 2024 and you still can not edit a KeyFrame in FCPX.... BLOWS MY MIND. Even creators are saying that FCPX is competing with CapCut cause it will never be as good as PP or DaV. Its still a good progam to open once in a while for something quick though. But they missed the train a loooong time ago.

      @@willhallmedia When you suddenly see that hundreds of youtubers "suddenly" feel the need to switch from FCP to Blackmagic, you do start to wonder.
      Specialy when you look at davinci. FREE they all shout, but if you wanne use some tekst or anything else, with 90% of all tekst, effects or anything else, it is the studio version you need. And that is PLING again. But anyway, davinci wouldnt be the first company's to place their advertisements on you tube.
