The Power of Channel Booleans in DaVinci Resolve & Fusion 

I love the selection of your examples which don't focus on achieving a particular visual effect but explore the technical details of the tools you show.

Thanks for mentioning WeSuckLess! (The friendliest Fusion/Resolve Forum in the known Universe..:-)) !!!

Thanks for detailed and kind explanation!

I keep returning to your channel. I should stay. An excellent explanation of one of our basic tools. You are helping the jigsaw form in my mind. If only everything I did worked the same way. Coffee or not. Kettle on/off. Map kettle water to the mug hole channel. 🤔

Hello Bernd - You're so knowledgeable about DaVinci Resolve and your videos have been a great help to me, thanks for putting in the time to cover these more advanced topics!

Thanks for detailed explanation! Love the way you teach technical aspects of software! 👍🏻

Once more a great study of one particular node, great stuff! Again, thank you much for your time and effort, very helpful at least for my taste!

One of the best presentations again!

Hey Bernd, thanks for another great tutorial. You've got a great teaching style -- I'll definitely check out your compositing course.

Great tutorial ! Thank you :)

perfect!!

I am so glad I found your channel. I will look for resources that explain how I can use math to produce various blend operations. I also look forward to checking out the forms that you suggest. Thanks.

You are so awesome!

For After Effects users the channel boolean is like the shift channels effect in ae

Awesome techniques! - I like this approach to Keying with the Channel Boolean node. - That technique for removing and adding back original grain is awesome. Basically, this is the best explanation of the Channel Boolean node I've seen so far. (Though I know there's more to do with it.) Thanks!!

Thanks ... 🍻

Channel Booleans is a great tool to exercise making a macro with or making a new default that includes premade settings for different situations. I do wish bmd made it so the settings labels could be changed or at least tied to a drop down in a macro so we could make 1 click metaboolean tools.

This Channel Booleans node kind of reminds me of Nuke's shuffle node. A very technical but very informative explanation of how the channel booleans node work. Thank you for making this tutorial!

Great tutorial as always! One little, probably unimportant question I wanted to ask; is there a specific reason for you choosing to do the paint job outside of Fusion?

Can we also have a tutorial on matte control please!

Can you do cool tutorials like Film Riot does? They just use AE and we need more cool Resolve tuts

Hi. I hope you are well and not affected by this virus going around? do you have any coupon codes for your courses at present? Thanks in advance - John

In your groups to start with the boxes. Is one of your nodes {background}. Is it separate for the A & B Box? I couldn't figure out for over an hour why I couldn't move my boxes together and only by layer, but then I made a background node for each and it worked. I couldn't find a video where you made the boxes or to copy how they were put together. I know how to make a rectangle, text, etc. But that part just made it difficult to start for me

I have an RGB selection matte .exr from a 3d render(this is very standard) and I need to extract the red channel to use as a mask/matte. How do I do it? There is no simple answer, channel Boolean is overkill for this.

when I can't solve a fusion problem with a google search I immediately use steakunderwater search for it's forums that are a deep well of information and problem solving.

Hi, My God your brilliant! Hey, I noticed something I’ve been looking everywhere to find how to do and you showed it on yours. At about 13 minutes in you show your logo ‘wrapped around’ your coffee mug. It had perspective and that squished look. I’m trying to do that with an imported png company logo, wrapped around a portion of the bottle like you did on your cup. This will be a video where initially we see a beautiful sunny day video but as the scene zooms out we only see it though the logo on the bottle. When the logo is at less than full screen full screen it changes back to the factory logo color. It’s the ‘look’ of the logo that I’m not sure how to do. Oh! - is there a way to manipulate font letters in DAV16 Resolve/Fusion, like in a vector based program via the points? - say if I wanted to replicate a custom design? Thanks in advance for your brilliance!

what's the difference between channel boolean and merge node in combining 2 images?
