A great tutorial, very easy to follow wish I had seen this prior to trying to do this a bit earlier. Can you tell me a bit more on imported graphics please, can I import from PhotoShop files. can I also import illustrator files? I assume the files need to be on transparent backgrounds, what file types can I import? What sort of resolution do I need if placing on 4K vid? Plus any other additions information. Using DeVinci 19.
DV 19 doesn't change anything in regards to what's covered in the video. You can use any graphic file, as far as I know. Certainly all the popular formats. Easiest thing is to try and see. Do you mean photoshop and Illustrator project files? I really don't know. But anything exported from those apps should not be a problem. For transparency I use png. I haven't used other types but don't think they'd be a problem. Files you import don't need to have transparent backgrounds unless you want the background to be transparent. 4k is high resolution so if you use low resolution images they will stand out as such. That's all I can tell you for now. Happy you liked tne tutorial. Thank you.
Noob question: could you have used the offset tool instead of retracking the left dancer? Is there any reason I do not see to retrack instead of just adjusting with the offset tool?
Yes you could or you could use the offset controls in the tracker node. The purpose was to demonstrate how to fix a partial bad track without tracking the whole thing again.
Hold down the 'fn' key and press F2. The fn key is at the bottom left corner of the Mac keyboard. It doubles as the emoji key, at least it does on my keyboard. Cheers.
@@billblakely No never assigned any keys, was looking up on apple and it says the 'globe' key is the 'fn' key but that is not working either, stumped. Such is life! Looked at the key assignments in the app as well to no avail.
This is the best tutorial on video tracking in DaVinci Resolve that I've ever seen! Nicely done!
That's great to hear. Thanks so much!
This was a really well done tutorial that also addressed details I've never seen explained before.
Thanks very much! I appreciate it.

One additional question F2 not working to rename on my Mac, have to right click and do it that way!

@@billblakely Yeah I have tried that to no avail, but thanks!
Maybe you've assigned those keys to do something else. If I remember correctly that's something you can do.

@@billblakely Aha, forgot to click on the item, globe works with F2.
