3 years old tutorial but still much useful than 20+ hour of video training from expensive big providers !!! Thank you very much for your work ! It's like Andy Kramer and NIck Campbell had a baby obsessed with Fusion ! :)
Beautiful . Just beautiful. Please continue with "Davinci resolve fusion" tutorials, I really like your way of going fast yet explaining the process along the way. Thank you very much for this one!!
Thank you!! Been looking for a clear and comprehensive tutorial like this!!! A lot of your videos are very advanced for me, and videos like this help me get closer to one day be able to understand and follow your other videos. Cheers!!
Your channel is going to blow up with all the da-fusion users! I guess I don't mind sharing :) On a side note you should look into RCM in resolve for color space management, its very powerful.
I found your channel longer ago, I knew one day I want to learn fusion but never had the time for it. Now blackmagic put fusion inside resolve and I like it very much!
You had me at "pirate"... :) I'm one of those Resolve people excited (and daunted) by the, umm, err, fusion of Fusion and Resolve so, thank you for the tutorials! :)
Yasss! Thanks man!!! I'm really interested in VFX and composite, the kinda tools that can really up my production value I come from PP and AE but already converted to Resolve for editing and CG!
LOL. Loved the intro. Your knowledge of Fusion is amazing, but I'm afraid it leaves me in the dust. How in the name of God did you learn the program so well? Any way, I know the program is powerful, but the nodal system I think confuses a lot of people. It is like being in a city planning department meeting with a bunch of people hyped up on meth. It all sounds so simple to those that know it, but to those on the outside looking in, it is kind of insane. I consider myself to be of at least average intelligence, and know quite a few things about 3D, but I was lost like 7 nodes in. Do you have a slowed down tutorial you'd recommend? One that starts on Bunny Hill, so to speak, before moving on to Suicide Run? Great work and I'm subbing. I agree with others that your channel has a lot of potential to be the Blender Guru of Fusion. And the name Con-Fusion is perfect. Absolutely fits.
Flying High look, my mentor called me No-Brainer! :) you, with your average brain are going to blow some minds in a few years. First rule, don’t think, just do. Second rule, join the Pirates of ConFusion.... on our discord channel for real-time support and on WeSuckLess Forum for a vast library of awesome tips. Third rule.... break the rules!
Great tutorial and keep them amazing tutorials coming.. Your channel is a great way to learn Fusion. Only one thing, more like a feedback.. When you are going all technical like when you used bitmap and all before boolean, you lost me there! So it would be great to know the end result beforehand.. Like showing the final video output and then beginning to explain how all the nodes fit in. Just my opinion..
Always keeps your flow flowing man. Always! I'm new to Resolve and like your vids, straight to the point. Is there a feature in resolve/fusion that works like the rotobrush in Premiere for mask selection? Also a vid on mask tracking would be great.
Man! why you have only 6k subs? you should have like atleaset 600k! great content ! i'm about to migrate from PR and AE to Davinci Resolve 15 and you videos will help me learn advanced stuff once i grasp the basics
Con- Fusion i would suggest making videos more frequently and regularly, probably once a week eventhough this might be hard with your type of "advanced" tutorials. There's also a lack of organized begginer-to-pro sort of tutorials for fusion so i'd also suggest planning a tutorial series for newbies. Lastly, i'd suggest trying to "convince" (if that's the correct way to say it ) AE users that Fusion is as capable by making a series of advanced tutorials that mimic those famous and common ones from Andrew Kramer, especially his last 2 tutorials about FX Titles with no 3rd party plugins. Consider also doing 3d objects integration into live footage tutorials like Element 3D does, and i'm saying this cuz i use E3D alot and it isn't available fir fusion sadly. Ok, i said alot lol, i think that's all. I'll keep an eye on your channel and i hope you get more subs as you truly post quality content!
Thanks for the video! However, I want to know if the end extro was done with practical smoke or a Fusion comp! Based on the channel, I'm guessing a comp?
What's the best workflow for handling multiple clips in a Fusion composition? Is it best practice to edit clips 1 by 1 on the timeline or is there a way to composite them all at the same time?
you should make in depth tutorial about linear workspace. I basically don't know when I should use that Lut button. I'm AE user and this linear workplace is confusing to me.
Using ACEScg inside Fusion (thanks to OCIO), linearizing everything, I wonder how I can actually use the add mode instead of screen, normal, etc... Finally have the solution, thanks :)
Hi, I am started learning fusion 9 now, i am trying to mask two different text using polygon, when its auto animated only one text is getting mask, what is the problem, help me resolving this, Please.
@@ConFusion My comment wasn't criticism or anything similar. Just a help for me, because I saved it and need a quick explanation. Your videos are excellent; I've been watching them since Fusion days! :) BTW: any more coming on RU-vid soon?
@@ConFusion Awesome! Can't wait! A huge success btw would be basic tutorials for all of the most important tools/nodes. Like each 5-10 minutes long (eg. Resolve-Fusion Basic Delta Keyer Tutorial, Resolve-Fusion Basic Masking Tutorial etc.). All those Resolve users would love that. Except for me ;) Just an idea(!!!) :)
Hi Con Thank you for this. As an AE user since 2009 my first impression of fusion is that it is slow, clunky, and extremely messy, Please help me understand the benifits of fusion as I sincerely want to migrate from Adobe to Resolve as an all in one solution which allows me to give premiere pro, AE and Pro tools the flick. Resolve will save me weeks of post production round tripping. I really really want to start using Fusion in place of After Effects, but to be honest, what I watched you do in about 8 minutes, i can do in 25 seconds in AE. Help me believe :)
Hey there, first tell me what took you only 40 sec. Then understand that Fusion is a VFX compositor. When it comes to that, it is very powerful. For other stuff, I am afraid Fusion is way more technical than AE. AE is sort of the one-click-make -look-good solution. As Andrew Kramer always wonderfully demonstrates. It is my honest opinion. The benefits are things like working in 32bit float is just default. All tools will work flawlessly in 32Bit. As you know Fusion is also Node-Based, which is a dream to work with. There are so many other reasons but it is difficult to explain. It's like asking, what do you like about this car?Well, you could say, "Its a Ferrari ( NUKE)" or you could say, I just like how it feels when driving it. Has power, lightweight (Fusion)..... Or you can drive Volkswagen (AE) :)
Sure I get what you're saying. Yes that is my largest obstacle finding online education to demonstrate the power of Fusion to the same capacity as what Kramer has done for AE, some one I have been following prior to VCP when he was making amateur tuts for Creative Cow. The 40 sec thing was just a round about way of saying I can key out a background and replace it with a new BG in a few seconds either with layer blur or camera DOP if i opt for a camera. Watching fusion in action seems like a whole lot of messing around, but I know thats just because I don't have the understanding of the power of nodes, I keep getting told they are better than layers. I simply don't have the experience to understand how nodes are better, but that will come with time and experience. Since the release of DVR15 Ive rushed out to cyberland to obtain as much info as possible, and you by far are the most comprehensive I've found so far, easily the AK of fusion :) Thanks.
When I started working in Fusion and using nodes, it felt awkward. Using merges to specify the order of videos etc. But when you get used to that and when you have worked a little bit in Fusion you will see the power of nodes. You will love it! I can not imagine ever going back to After Effects, even for Motion Graphics. I tried. And Layers are (even for Motion Graphics) a pain in the ass. Pre-comp this, pre-comp that. It's so terribly annoying! Once you are used to working with nodes, you will wonder how you were ever able to work in AE without freaking out. Especially if you do VFX work, you just should not use After Effects. No one does and that's for a reason. It's made for MoGraphs. And even there, I like nodes better. VFX is the realm of serious node-based compositors. To understand the power of nodes, you have to work with them. It's just so convenient to re-use any part of the comp in an other part of the comp without pre-comping or any shit like that. Where it gets really ridiculous is, when you try to get back to an old AE comp. Good luck going through the stack of layers, trying to understand, what you've done. In Fusion and Nuke, it's easy. You just look at the node graph and you can see where thinks are going, what's used were, you can add notes for you, underlays to organize the graph. It's just great! What you call "messy" is the beauty of nodes. Everything is on the table. You can see it all and organize it the way you want. Your flow is as "messy" as you want it to be. So tidy it up. Like your room. Keep it clean. Whereas in AE everything looks tidy at first, but that's just because everything is hidden under all these layers, you have to twirl down to get to what you want to see. Fusion uses your spatial vision and memory, which makes it way easier to locate and remember nodes. The way a node graph is layed out makes more sense than layer based compositing. The effects and relationships between different components are what make up compositing. These relationships are what's hard to understand. And nodes convey these relationships clearly, whereas layers obscure everything. Nodes are clearer to read, clearer to understand, easier to manipulate, are more flexible, more powerful, and encourage you to play around more. Once you have tasted nodes and once you got comfortable with them, you will want them everywhere. I still want a node-based photo-editing software... I can also not fully describe why I love them so much. It just makes compositing so much more pleasent and fun. Here's a video about After Effects vs Nuke: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OgvswMcsrps.html And here's an interview with Editor/Compositor Alan E. Bell about Fusion and why it's superior to After Effects: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8ov0v5bVa7Y.htmlm6s My advice: Try Fusion for a few weeks. Once it "clicks", you'll love nodes.
This is such a meaty tutorial for a newbie that I found myself talking back. So much so that I thought my reactions were as important to me as the content presented for my learning Why don't I capture my reactions too I thought so that I have those when I implement? To that end I created a noobie reaction video to this one. It's over on my channel. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0Fxayb9xv4k.html But, watch this one before you watch the noobie reaction. Vito. What a tutorial. So info rich. So many nodes. Loved watching you negotiate Fusion on the fly. You rock!
