usually browse youtube without signing in it. But I just logged into it now just to express my gratitude & appreciation for you. Not all heroes wear cape. Saying thank you isn't enough. You helped countless poor people like me & have their blessings. Keep up the good work bro !!
Dude...the level of detail that you put into what you shared in this video is just....INCREDIBLE. I can see that you're not holding anything back. So grateful for what you've done. Know that this tutorial video of yours is what changed my life for the better. God Bless you, man.
I appreciate you being so humble about this whole tutorial. This stuff is intimidating for beginners, so explaining everything in a simple and kind way goes a long way. Its super appreciated, my dude!
You're most welcome! I aim to make these videos feel like we're sitting together and sharing the info - so hopefully that approach is helping you learn!
I'm following this video while using my own clips and I'm in a much more peaceful state since I feel like you've given me direction with how editing works. I'm truly grateful, thank you.
You're most welcome! Once you've got your head around the tools and the creativity starts to flow, I find that editing can be a really peaceful process!
@@TutsPlusTom dude, You're my sensei for DaVinci Resolve. Your videos are better than the official training videos. Unfortunately, there are not many great tutorials for DaVinci Resolve in RU-vid, most of em are featuring premiere pro.
Tom, you're a master teacher, and I laughed when you said" So... I've been talking a long time and you're probably thinking Tom, shut up and edit - Let's do it" I'm a Newby to DaVinci and your primer instructing us (me) is so needed just to have a basic understanding of what is in this software and how it's built for filmmaking compared to both adobe premiere pro, and the simple Wondershare Filmora Pro. I'm never going back - DaVinci is laid out perfectly and really has no equal, especially for 60 or 90 minutes films. Thank you, Tom!
Hey John, thanks so much for the kind words! I'm glad you got a little giggle out of it too, at the end of the day learning anything should be a fun process! If you ever need a quick reference on Resolve whilst you're still getting your head around it, I made a quick start version of this video recently, it might make a handy little reference for you! All the best in your Resolve journey 💪⚡ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P73m0p8JbV0.html
Brilliant introduction to editing and Davinci Resolve. I’m about to edit hours of old family videos and this has really helped me get to grips with the basics as well as showing me some great tricks and tips I can use on the way. More please!😊
Oh you're most welcome! Good luck with the editing of the family videos! I've got another quick start guide which covers a lot of the same content in this video but in a nice, quick condensed way if you want to use that as reference - it'll be out on the 12th! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P73m0p8JbV0.html
@@myaominky at the end of the day we're all just a bunch of nerds who want to learn about video editing. Sharing the love is the name of the game! Thanks for the sub, glad to have you on the team!
Thanks a lot this was well needed I just downloaded davinci resolve 2 days ago appreciate this I started editing already but this showed my mistakes I made already and new things I need to know very informative content coming from imovie this will help me a lot
Thank you! I love the videos. I find them very well done. The only thing I struggled with was following your mouse. I had to rewind many times to see where you were clicking. In future videos, if you can have a glowing circle around your mouse pointer, that would make them 100% in my mind.
You make a good point! 😅 I definitely wanted to keep things flowing in this video to get new learners up to speed as quickly as possible. It sounds like a mini tutorial on proper project organisation might be in order!
I keep coming back to your tutorials as they are very well laid out and easy to follow, I am particularly greateful that your video is for the free version of ver 17. my systems onboard card cant handle 18.5 Thanks alot once again.
Thank you so much for this video! I'm a pro still photographer just getting started in the video realm and this tut will certainly jump start my progress. I already have given DR a try but quickly realized it was like learning Photoshop for the first time. I will definitely watch your other tuts.
This was a PHENOMENAL tutorial Tom! 📸 Just bought a Canon XA55 camcorder & an Insta360 ONE RS 360° One Inch Leica edition to video our conferences, but realized I can probably make much better Instagram reels with professional video equipment. 📸 Downed DaVinci Resolve today & realized I know nothing! 😅 Just watched this video & you made it SUPER EASY to get started! 🎥 Keep up the good work Tom! I’m subscribing now! I’ll see if I can find you on Instagram as well! 😎
can you please show practically how to use envato elements videos inside resolve ? Like how to replace dummy videos with actual ones in media/edit sections. Thanks for this detailed video.
@@envatotuts make new video for Beginners Part 2 more advance to this video Part 3 Part 4 more advance.. and last part Part 5 part 6 Fusion.. Great! Love your videos..
@@TutsPlusTom more VFX and SFX tutorials. Along with masking, color grading, interpolation, etc. You can throw some light on the subtle use case scenarios of slipping and sliding clips in the timeline. DaVinci Resolve doesn't have a lot of tutorials in RU-vid btw, most of em are done for pp
Wow, great Tutorial. Thanks. I am interested in the fundamentals of fps, from project point of view to timeline to delivering, and working with multi clips of different fps. Also how do some effects deal with those clips (Speed, Duration, Retime Controls), how do they compress or drop frames in the combination of project/timeline/delivery fps. Is there a dedicated course or are you intending to make a tutorial for this topic? Cheers.
Hey Jean, I've made a tutorial that delves into a little of what you're talking about in terms of how DaVinci Resolve handles media of different frame rates as well as how the program uses AI tools to interprets that footage when changing the speed of the media in post. You can check it out here - hopefully it answers some of your questions! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6jRH0oCa7ps.html
I'm trying to follow along and I'm at my first hiccup with you not remembering you're are dealing with newbs. Around 16:20 you said I'm just going to highlight this and zoom out. That's fine if you know how but I don't so now I have to try to figure that out before I can move on. Not a big complaint but something for you to think about in any of your future beginner tuts. Remember the things you don't even think about now are the things us noobs have no idea about.
Online educators, learn from this dude. THIS is how you bloody do online education, no matter the subject. I can't tell you how many educational videos I've watched over the years and they all make me sleepy. This one didn't. And I actually "got" it without having to rewind/rewatch everything all the damned time.
Again, this is a beginner editor tutorial but you continue to speak of other things as if we are experts... Please continue. I am trying to hand in here.
I'm hoping to improve my videogame video editing skills, but I'm really hoping that this tutorial series helps me, even if this is geared towards real-life or corpo editing. One of my biggest takeaways from this video is that I need to spend more time in the EDIT tab instead of the CUT tab. I was also scared to try the blade tool and such, but CLEARLY I should start to! Anything else is just that I might want to look into the "fundamentals" or "philosophies" of editing.. but I have no idea where I would find that on the internet. Happy New Year!
I'm from Nigeria, always edited with Capcut on PC and i have been looking for how best to transit to DaVinci... You broke the bonsai in my mind and made it a lot more underwhelming... I'm definitely gonna get better from watching this!
