EDIT BETTER with Keywords and Smart Bins - DaVinci Resolve TUTORIAL (Metadata Organisation) 

Yuo're right, anyone under what we do, tell them about them.

That's very kind of you to say. That's our goal - to teach simply and succinctly. Thanks for the encouragement!

Please do! Thanks for your support.

Isn't it?! Great feature.

Thanks so much and welcome. We love keywords!

You're welcome!

Thanks Antoine 😄

Yes that’s true that an editor might appreciate a different bin structure. Don’t forget though that selects, processed clips, etc can always be marked and organised dynamically with metadata and smart bins. It has the advantage of media existing in multiple places simultaneously. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thanks so much! It can be transferred between projects by exporting bins/timelines or by placing clips in power bins. Does that help?

That's great! So pleased.

Hello Doug, creating multi cams will feature in our course we're working on. In the meantime @CaseyFaris is great. Check out his video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VZUDWIJ5xzo.htmlsi=m9BnGiovVcxZn-9w

Yes, Resolve has really powerful media management tools built in!

Great request! Will add it to the list.

It's home made! 🙃

Thanks so much. Sorry though, I don't think smart bins are currently available on the cut page. 😞

The save button is only visible when you editing the metadata of multiple clips at the same time. If you are only editing a single clip there is no save button and your metadata is automatically saved to the clip in your media pool. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

@@team2films Hi again , followed your instructions, brought them into bins filled in date recorded ,which is whats important to me ,but when i check this morning all that info is missing, i thought by not moving the clips out of DaVinci 18 would preserve that but no!

Ah man! That would be awesome. No I don’t think can organise smart bins the way you are describing. That would be a great feature request. Thanks for watching

Yes and yes! Resolve will work with metadata that has been added on set or during production.

We do fusion content too. We have a video on planar tracking screen replacement. There will be more Fusion videos on the channel in the future. Thanks for watching.

If you select the clip, hit F it will load it into the source viewer. From there you can turn those in and out points into a marker and assign a keyword to that marker. It's a little long winded, but it is VERY possible.

@@team2films thanks a lot!

Yes, it's possible to do that with sub clips or duration markers. We prefer duration markers.

Hello Jens, that’s a good question about creating smart bins for different cameras. Not every camera puts metadata in the file that specifically names the camera, but it’s possible sometimes based on the way that the camera names it’s files and other things like resolution and codec. Maybe we’ll make a video on it. Thanks for watching. Natalie.

Thanks for the idea, will add it to the list!

Yes! When a clip that contains keyword metadata is copied into another project, that metadata comes along too! :-) How great is that?

We're so glad you've found it now thought :) Great to have you here. Thanks for watching.

Yes! Turn the in and out points into a duration marker and assign a keyword. It's an awesome feature that's unique to DaVinci Resolve. We've got a lesson on this in an upcoming course.

@@team2films gah okay I did this, but for whatever reason you can’t hover scrub the clips when doing this! lol I feel like everything is so close, but just has something lacking. I have resorted to creating sub clips of the in and out using “option+B”, and then using a quick key shortcut to add a keyword.

@@livingforhim Yes that's true. Live Media Preview doesn't work on duration markers. It's worth mentioning this in the Resolve forums. Blackmagic is very open to community feedback.

I understand where you are coming from.

Hello, that's a good question. That's because those clips are created as subclips with full extents (not limited to the in and out points). You can convert them to subclips without full extents. You might be better using one of the other methods for performing scene cuts. I.e. doing it at import. Does that help?

Goto workspace, Keyword Manager. You can remove unwanted keywords there.

Glad you are enjoying Resolve.

That's a good point. Will try and work that into future videos. Sending much love to all the Linux Resolve users out there! Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@team2films You know, I really do not enjoy logging. But, this video made me realize that my inherent laziness would be more than compensated for by spending those extra few seconds to do this simple little thing. So I did, and overnight, my work load has been cut in half. So, thank you. Both your presenters are very motivating. Kudos.

@@21stcenturybohemian Ah wow! We are glad the video has been so helpful. Thanks so much for watching and sharing. We'll try and make more content on logging.

Her presentation is perfect for professionals who understand that learning takes time. There's plenty of the kind of content you want on RU-vid.

Thanks ProductionExpert. Appreciate your support. Nice to have you here.

Try increasing playback speed to 1.5x. Thanks for watching.

Not necessary. Her way of speaking is perfect.

Hmmm, that's a good question. Resolve is an NLE, not a MAM (Media Asset Management) system, therefore its toolset revolves around projects and edits, rather than the media. It cannot save metadata back to the media, however you can export a CSV of your metadata for import back into Resolve or other programs. This might satisfy your XLS question? There are some features that might help you. For example Power Smart Bins. It's also possible for Resolve to read metadata set in the camera and to parse metadata from file names. Another insight, any color tags that are set and defined in the Finder on a macOS can automatically be imported as keywords. Just turn the setting on in User Preferences. If you're looking for a comprehensive system for management stock assets, there are dedicated programs that will do a better job. I hope that's helpful. Please ask if you have further questions.
