ONE SECOND EXPRESSION: iif(((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/2) < 1, ((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/2),1) CUSTOMIZABLE WITH CUSTOM CONTROL (MAKE SURE TO CREATE THE CONTROL AS PER VIDEO) iif(((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/Transform1.AnimSpeed) < 1, ((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/Transform1.AnimSpeed),1)
Wouldn't it also make sense to calculate the variable of Transform1.AnimSpeed so that the user can choose in Seconds instead of the divider (like 2 means 1 second). should work by putting it like so: iif(((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/(Transform1.AnimSpeed*2)) < 1, ((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/(Transform1.AnimSpeed*2)),1) By adding the brackets with the var multiplied by 2 means that if the user selects 1, its going to be 1*2 = 2 (=1 second) and if the animation should be 4 seconds long, then it would be 4*2=8... also, if you're still reading this (probs!): if you add a second variable (with control), you can control in and out timing separately. Love the video! thanks for teaching me how to achive that.
This is arguably one of the most selflessly shared informational video on Davinci Resolve that I have seen. Thank you for sharing this. Wanted to like this video a 1000 times but alas youtube is in the way. Started a youtube channel both to learn and share anything I get to learn along the way too (mad resolve). Thank you for being an inspiration sir.
Thank you! I have been trying to figure this out for months. Your tutorials are my favorites and I tell other new DaVinci Resolve beginners about you all the time on social media. I would find it helpful to know more about expressions. One specifically - how to make a generator work with different frame rates. Thanks again for all the fantastic content you provide for us!
You have an amazing knack of making the daunting less...well, daunting 🙄🤣. As a beginner, the confidence gained from creating your own effect cannot be measured so cheers for this Alex 🙏🏻. Excellent as always sir 👊✌️
Nice video as always, no way I would have figured this out if I was just reading it, thank you for the in depth tutorial, learning so much from you and love how you break down something that seems so complicated into an easy to follow along task.
Love your tutorials! You can simplify your expression a lot however by using the min function, so rather than iif(x() < 1, x, 1) you can do min(x, 1) which will take the minimum of those two values. Makes the expression much easier to read!
so would the min expression be: min(((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/2)), 1) ? I believe it's lua...? do you know if you can use python expressions?
I first watched this video (multiple times of course) and implemented it when it appeared 11 months ago. Sadly I had a problem with my Dell XPS 15 leading to its replacement. Of course I hadn't taken all the necessary backups ("my bad") and just reinstalled a clean DR 18.5 losing all my customization. But not to worry as I just watched your video (multiple times) again and have now reinstituted your Zoomie on the new replacement Dell. And this time I even used the "nested" expression. As one who was originally more scientific (engineering grad) than creative I think this video particularly appealed - thanks again for the awesome channel. As I don't use DR often enough to retain all the tips I find myself re-watching many of your videos ... no complaints from your self I assume 😁
Brilliant! Thanks @MrAlexTech for posting this. Just when you think you have a good sense of what this software can do, someone comes along and smacks you upside the head with a brilliant tutorial.
This is a fantastic tutorial, some how you managed to answer nearly all of my questions in one video! Thanks for sharing this, your content is really great.
Heyyy! Thanks dude :) There's more of this really nerdy stuff! The vids just don't do particularly well haa.

@@MrAlexTech yeah I can understand that - clickability, algorithms and all that… You once told me shorter videos tend to do better than longer ones in terms of watch time. (Better to have 50% of a 2-minute video watched, rather than 10% of a 10-minute one - I remembered it! 🤓) Thanks for making this one though - I just watched the entire thing without skipping! 😆
Thanks for the tuto' ! I was annoyed with Xbox gamebar recording on Windows (because variable framerate, video are recording with a big double screen and big green bar at the bottom...) now i can just zoom with this macro in 1 second !
Hey Alex, I've recently subscribed to your channel. Your content is very informative & entertaining. Thus - I bet you don't read that often! - extremely valuable. I've been trying to do what you did in the video since 2019!! To me, you rank way high next to Casey Faris, Billy Rybka, & Jamie Fenn. Anyway, thank you for another awesome video Alex.
First to comment. Thanks for sharing. just finished the tutorial - Very useful information shared. Always wondered how to do this - was trying to create titles with entrance and exit animation... Ended up using keyframe stretcher but it's not as flexible as this. Thanks again.
Thank you! I didn’t know animcurve could scale with the length of the clip. Time to get to work on some presets. Also, how do you make custom folder paths like you do for your packs? For example, if I wanted to save all my custom effects to a separate folder so it isn’t mixed in with the standard Davinci effects.
WOW!!! Great info! What happened if we want to buy a newer and better computer to use with DR? Can we backup all those kind of things including preset, templates, transitions, etc? Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It all helps us to become better editor's, and adds to our repertoire. Looking forward to joining the Davinci editor community. Also, is this something that would be considered "taxing" on any particular system?
@@NickSandM what he said 😄 On its own the expressions are tough but they do stack up quick!! Add a few together and it can chug. More than I feel it should actually!
I haven't followed all the instructions yet but I can't help wondering what happens if Transform1.AnimSpeed is set to 0. How forgiving is Resolve when you divide by zero? I've now had a chance to try to break things and the transform doesn't work if it includes a divide by zero. :D I now see why the Edit Controls includes the option to specify which values are allowed.
I need some help here... I did everything you do to saving the macro, but my DR doesnt show the macro on the effects section... i dont know what else to do, and im pissing off cause it doesnt make sense
The only advantage Adobe's suite has over Resolve (imho) is the amount of community made newbie friendly addons, transitions and other stuff You're among few people who moves resolve forward in this regard I didn't understand a single shit form this video but i guess it's in my best interest to promote it a bit
Haha thanks man, appreciate it! Yeaaah agreed, it's still a baby really so doesn't have the huge list of user made content. Hopefully videos like this will help others create stuff.
Hello. First of all, thank you for your great channel. I was asking myself how do you create buttons ads "categories" inside the macro settings accessible in the edit page . For example, in your MagicAnimate macro, you have a button to link to your website and you have categories to structure each type of animation. I really would like to do that but i don't find any way to do that in the macro editor. What is the trick? 😄
Hey alex. I have been searching for an easy way of using green screen videos in davinci 18. But unlike other lower end editors, there is no green screen filter available in davinci to one click and use our green screen video. Do you have any videos or tips regarding this problem?
Is there a way to take someone's preset, like your mrbeast subtitle, edit the effects that i want on it , like lets say colour and size and export that as a brand new effect?
Great video as always, Alex! The expression seemed to work flawlessly until I actually went to try and resize the length of the clip. If I make the clip longer, the animation starts getting wonky in the middle. So instead of an animate in>pause>animate out I end up with animate in> glitchy middle bit> animate out. Probably hard to answer, but any idea why the animation is not scaling properly with my clip length?
Hey hey! Honestly it's probably just the cache. I tend to just move the clip to somewhere else on the timeline and then put it back so it recaches it 😆
@@MrAlexTech Thanks for the help mate! It does seem to be cache related! Moving the clip didn't help, but for some reason switching the timeline proxy resolution does the trick.
ONE SECOND EXPRESSION:
iif(((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/2) < 1, ((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/2),1)
CUSTOMIZABLE WITH CUSTOM CONTROL (MAKE SURE TO CREATE THE CONTROL AS PER VIDEO)
iif(((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/Transform1.AnimSpeed) < 1, ((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/Transform1.AnimSpeed),1)
Where did these come from?
I would like to know too
Someone should count how many times you say ,,like so'' ;)
Wouldn't it also make sense to calculate the variable of Transform1.AnimSpeed so that the user can choose in Seconds instead of the divider (like 2 means 1 second). should work by putting it like so:
iif(((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/(Transform1.AnimSpeed*2)) < 1, ((time-comp.RenderStart)/(comp:GetPrefs().Comp.FrameFormat.Rate)/(Transform1.AnimSpeed*2)),1)
By adding the brackets with the var multiplied by 2 means that if the user selects 1, its going to be 1*2 = 2 (=1 second) and if the animation should be 4 seconds long, then it would be 4*2=8... also, if you're still reading this (probs!): if you add a second variable (with control), you can control in and out timing separately.
Love the video! thanks for teaching me how to achive that.
There is a whole side to this software I just never imagined was there.
It’s deep
This is amazing. I love this kind of stuff in Reaolve
Yes please - more exciting expressions. You won't bore me to death with learning how to do fancy things in Resolve.
I'm really grateful for all what you're teaching us, Thank you so much

WHAT? Thanks Mr. Alex, because I've been staring at spline curves for way WAY too long. bless you
This is exactly what I was looking for, you are the best! Thank you very much!
So happy i found youre channel.
Protect Alex AT ALL COSTS 🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏
Hi Alex, this is awesome! I wish you'd do a in-depth-Video on expressions. Thanks alot!
I could do! It's just there's so much to cover, and so much I don't know 😄 I'd need to niche it down abit!

Brilliant! Thanks @MrAlexTech for posting this. Just when you think you have a good sense of what this software can do, someone comes along and smacks you upside the head with a brilliant tutorial.

Thank you for this tutorial, such a life saver ;)
Brilliant tutorial. Love all your videos as there easy to follow with clear examples. Thanks. 👍
Thank you for this, saved me so much time and answered all my questions regarding getting this result
I do use your magic animation tool, when I make my tutorials. Easy, practical, immediate, effective.

Please do a video about expressions !!
That was awesome! Thanks so much! :)
Definitely I would like to see a in depth tutorial about the expression. 🙌 Also how to turn off only the out animation or in animation.
Yes, more on expressions! Thx mate. Quality, as always. 👍👏🙏
Great video! Much appreciated
This is why I leave this crazy stuff up to clever guys like yourself, I nearly blacked out looking at the first 3 seconds of the video 🤣

Also please consider a segment on expressions. Would be nice to use 5 years of engineering calculus for SOMETHING.
You'll be better than me at it 😆 My GCSE maths is barely holding together 😂
Great job!
You are the best!
As always great video. Not sure if u noticed or just not appearing on my phone but the link to the other video at around 20s isnt there. 👍

First to comment. Thanks for sharing. just finished the tutorial - Very useful information shared. Always wondered how to do this - was trying to create titles with entrance and exit animation... Ended up using keyframe stretcher but it's not as flexible as this. Thanks again.
Thanks! Yeah the keyframe stretcher is totally an option but I feel this is more flexibile. And allows you to then bits on and off 🙂

Also, is this something that would be considered "taxing" on any particular system?
taxing, this effect no. if you do Many EXPRESSION in 1 preset yes it will start to slow down. But this itself i could do on my 2008 laptop🙂
@@NickSandM what he said 😄
On its own the expressions are tough but they do stack up quick!! Add a few together and it can chug. More than I feel it should actually!
Ah, I see. Thank you both for the response. I'll keep that in mind.

Hi Alex Question for you ;
I have 100 Nos of footages ,
How can i identify slog2 or slog 3 without getting info from respective shooter/Dp ?
I need some help here... I did everything you do to saving the macro, but my DR doesnt show the macro on the effects section... i dont know what else to do, and im pissing off cause it doesnt make sense
You should not have to write the node name (Transform1) if the control is in the same node.
I want the geeky video please
The only advantage Adobe's suite has over Resolve (imho) is the amount of community made newbie friendly addons, transitions and other stuff

Where did the expression come from? You just copied it in and I don't understand how you even got it.
I wrote it! 👍 As mentioned, I can do a video explaining how I wrote it at some point
Advice from a youtuber. Your titles are too long, people cant read everything especially on mobile. Keep it under 54 characters. Much love ❤
