This may be the best Resolve tutorial I’ve ever watched!! INCREDIBLE amount of information, applied to a real-life scenario rather than an easy, textbook case study. Thank you for explaining SO many things, so perfectly!!! 🏆🥇👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

Wow, thanks!

@TransformXRED 5 месяцев назад

For the last part, there is an easier way. On the fusion page, add 2 mediaout nodes. The first one connected to the text, the second one to the background. On the color page, you can add a second input and each of them will get one of the mediaout node from fusion. So you can color grade each part separately, from the same fusion comp

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

Great point and tip. I had forgotten about this method so I'm glad you brought it up. I will include in a future tutorial about using fusion mattes. Cheers.

@santacruzsurfpics6930 5 месяцев назад

Gradient extrapolation wow ! And me splitting polyline into xypath and looping and prelooping all the time. What a time saver! The clear option on Channel booleans is also a very nice tip . I used to slap a transparent background on it, but this is neater and probably faster since you don’t need to type the source resolution. Thanks for the all nice tips.

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

Glad it helped! Ah yes transparent backgrounds are another useful trick. Thanks for being here.

Man, this video was so dense with tips that go way beyond tracking but for moving around in Fusion in general. Bravo!

Great to hear! It means we are all growing creatively. I have to be honest, I'm still exploring all the use cases for the compositing math you can do with booleans alone but that's why its a fun one.

Love the simplicity of your tracking workflow and really nice to see someone address the edge tracking problem with the gradient extrapolation. Also first time Ive seen a solution to the color correction issue. Casey Faris might be funnier but your more to the point with less faff :D

@haroldmorganTulsa 4 месяца назад

@RonaldKasper 5 месяцев назад

Hi! The separation of the fusion graphics is interesting but I think I have an easier approach: I just add a fusion comp above the normal footage and add a media-in node which is set to „background“. That way it blends in the video layer below and you can create your trackings, add tracked text and the underlying footage can be colorgraded complete independently from the fusion comp.

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

Hi Ronald - this is a great solution as long as you are not changing resolutions. The issue I have run into is when the media-in is set to background it pulls the timeline resolution, so if its changed later - tracks won't hold to the correct location or scale.

@RonaldKasper 5 месяцев назад

@TransformXRED 5 месяцев назад

These types of tutorials are the best! Because they are based on real situations. And it's the first time I see gradient extrapolation beign used in a tutorial... I wish I knew about it years ago lol. I always struggled with tracking going out of the frame. I figured it was normal to have to finish the tracking manually.

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

Awesome, thanks for the encouragement. I've noticed if you follow a stock video clip for all the training sometimes its not realistic to actual shots that are more challenging, so I'm hoping to show solutions to the common problems in real life shots as much as possible this year.

@FrankPloegman 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for this explanation, Chadwick! In the past I made 2 or 3 videos where I used tracking. Admittedly these were quite complicated with sports players moving quickly and obscuring the tracked player, but I thought the tracking process error prone and time consuming due to required manual adjustments. The end result was also imperfect. Your tips will hopefully make the next video much smoother and better.

@tshansen 5 месяцев назад

I would love to see you spin some magic on the Magic Mask tool. I tend to always ruin the tracking when I do anything with the magic mask after it's done tracking. No I have to magic mask, open in new timeline, export and import the new clip with a see trough background. Keep up the great work. Cheers 🇳🇴

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

Noted! I have some thoughts on this for sure. Also in how and why person mask vs object mask work differently. For now - Bernd Klem has an excellent demo on VFX Study here on RU-vid that I would take a look at. He is a wizard.

@tarask9971 5 месяцев назад

I like that Fusion is part of Davinci Resolve and you don't need to jump to another program to add some effects, but I hate Fusion itself because it's so complicated (((( So hard to remember everything. How to connect nodes between each other etc. It's much simpler in After Effects, but since I've already switched to Davinci, I have to struggle every time I need to make some effects done( But thank you for a lesson. Very clear from your side, no water, straight to the point

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

Love this comment and believe me, I understand the feeling about how Fusion feels complicated. I'm primarily an editor and until 2 years ago, I completely avoided the fusion page so I have some ideas to share that will hopefully be relatable to the basics of 2d compositing which can go very far.

@dougdina 5 месяцев назад

That really is a great video. However, I have been struggling with the order of operations concept. In other words, you can’t see Color Page changes in Fusion. It frustrates me that you need to have 2 clips just so that the text isn’t color corrected. I totally understand why but it bothers me that we have to jump around from clip to clip and from Fusion to Color pages. Another possible approach to improve the contrast in Fusion would be to immediately add a CST as the first node, then add a reverse before media out. You make great videos.

@NeilHesterSkateboarding 5 месяцев назад

Great tutorial thanks ! Do you have an advanced tutorial workflow similar to this for Smart Reframe or Manual Reframing for example reframing a moving object to keep it in centre frame when editing 16:9 wdie footage to 9:16 vertical social media format? Smart Reframe is OK but often the tracking fails and goes off somewhere else so manual editing is required and i'd like to be able to to that with a faster workflow. Cheers Neil

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

Hi Neil - this is an older one on smart reframe - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VapPGElxgz0.htmlsi=_QLpFQw32D7BFpIv However, you could use the point tracker (or the planar tracker) in fusion to lock off the xy position. For the planar tracker its called "steady". For the point tracker you choose match move, BG only. Then apply a transform to scale up in a node after, or on the edit page inspector controls. Good idea for a future tutorial.

@NeilHesterSkateboarding 5 месяцев назад

@@CreativeVideoTips Thanks 👍 thanks how i'm doing it right now, the smart tracker is ok on the perfect shot but i often have to do manual editing of its keyframes both position and ease in/out to clean them up, especially in lower lighting situations where it cant see very distinguishing features.

man you do such an amazing job at explaining the why behind the problem! I'm hoping maybe you could help me.

I have been trying to use the planar tracker

@chadmillercolor 5 месяцев назад

Another great video Chadwick! Thank you! One question and thought .. Why use Color Cache Render Output and not Fusion Cache Render output at that stage? As fusion cache will encompass your source media and fusion comp.. As you directly went into the color page after enabling Color cache .. now each color adjustment requires a complete recache .. but as fusion cache is prior in the pipeline it would not require a forced recache and you could color freely .. I almost never use color render cache as I node cache heavy operations like Noise reduction, magic mask and depth map plates .. ect… Only once the grade is locked I might enable color cache if I need the extra juice for playback.

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

thats a good point - it has been a habit for many years to use color cache since its the last in the chain - Fusion cache would have been a better choice here

Great tutorial… I just wanna know, how do you know all this shit? I like to call fusion, confusion, because it’s incredibly more complicated than after effects. But this is definitely one of the best tutorials about tracking I’ve seen. Would be interesting to do this exact same thing in after effects and see the difference.

@CreativeVideoTips 5 месяцев назад

Thanks so much for the kind words. Haha, I just try to find smart people, learn from them and then share it. Half the time I just click around to see what stuff does. After Effects tracker works in a similar way, the obviously different thing is getting adjusted to a node setup instead of nested pre-comp layers.

@AlastairTyeSamson 4 месяца назад

I'm interested in why you'd prefer duplicating the clip on the edit page rather than just creating a second media out on the fusion page? It seems crazy inefficient and would create a headache when you need to make changes to the track but maybe I'm missing something? Also when you're talking about the render cache you refer to fusion being down stream of the color page but it's up steam of the color page as the very next part of your video demonstrates!
