Double thumbs up from me. This is a role model for how online learning content should be. Comprehensive, well-paced, well-explained, and a great time code index in the description. This video becomes _reference_ material for me.
Wow, thanks, Calvin! So humbled by your kind comment. Sorry it's taken me a while to come back to your comment. So glad you found the video helpful and hope we see you soon on some of the LIVE shows I'm planning.
Thanks Alex I've been using DaVinci Resolve for about a year as I made the move from final cut as i changed over to black magic camera is absolutely love Divinci but it's a bit like my brain i use about 10% of it and have looked at many online tutorials but I have to say the way that you deliver your tutorials is very clear concise and easy to follow it's like a breath of fresh air thank you so much
This comment made my day! Thank you Gary for taking the time to watch and leave that comment. So glad that you’ve enjoyed the tutorials and videos so far. I really like to try and deliver the insight behind the technique rather than just click and say follow me. I don’t think anyone actually learns that way.
A couple weeks later and we’ve watched this video second time… Got much more out of it the second time. I think the trick is not to know everything, but to pick your two favorites and memorize those. This video does show the power of resolve color and it is astonishing. Thank you for doing such a great and thorough job.
Hey Allen, you're so welcome. I know there's quite a lot there and I totally hope that people will do as you've done and come back and take a little new learning away each time. I wanted to cover the topic as completely as I could as there are many ways to do each task in Resolve and it greatly depends on your use case and workflow needs. Thanks so much for watching and commenting on this and other videos! Means a lot to see you're getting something from the content I'm putting out!
@@AlexCameron-Depiqd > You covered the Topic expertly and yes, most come back to watch several times. This is one program that takes time and repeated use to learn - Thanks!
This video just changed my life as a colorist. Yes I know how to color and pretty good at it since I make a living as a filmmaker. But being so stuck into learning how to color I never learn how to grade faster and optimized my workflow. I knew a few of the tips but the rest blew my mind. I’m ready to double and triple the amount of work I take at a time after watching this video.
Alex your explanations are soooo comprehensive and complete..You are a boon to us Davinci learners. God bless you and give you all the success in life.Greetings from India.
This comment made my day! Thank you, Suchit for taking the time to spread the love a little. Means a lot that you've watched the video and hope it helped.
Thank you for being the first person I've found who assumes that not everyone will have a middle mouse button. I assume it's some sort of battle armour that serious graders cannot do without, but as someone new to Davinci after spending ages looking for copy-and-paste options, I was very grateful to see a much clearer explanation.
Hey Vladimir, that's so awesome to hear! Thanks for watching and hope the info helps. I always overlook the Remote Version option but it's very powerful.
By far the best tutorial I've seen on multiple clip grading. Very nice explanations, fast-paced, and complete. Thanks so much for sharing your understanding!
Alex- very impressed how thorough your tutorials are. I find that when testing or demonstrating - especially something like this. the over push of red or green etc. with the offset makes it easier for viewers to quickly see the results across the thumbnails. I understand that you are actually using it the way you would in real life scenarios, by putting a quick grade on it, and that is equally as important I guess. I would add that another place that could be applied for grading multiple clips is in the multicam timeline - right clicking and open in timeline that gives the stacked clips - when that is open you can jump to the color page and grade all the full clips from the multicam. And then when you go back and switch it back to the regular multicam, every cut clip in the multicam has a grade applied. Anyway although I already knew all this stuff, I really appreciate that fact that you covered it very well for those who have not yet been exposed to this information. They can be assured that this is being taught to them properly and accurately. Unfortunately, I can't say that for a lot of Davinci Resolve youTubers. Great job, Alex,
Thanks so much for that! Really appreciate you watching the videos and taking the time to comment. I do try to provide a bit of the why behind that what and how as I think that’s where really learning comes from. Then it can be applied to other scenarios. You’re absolutely right though...another application would be in multi cams for sure. I’ve done that one myself but didn’t mention here as it was already a long video. I’ve always done the extreme adjustment just because the subtle ones are hard enough to see on my screen let alone on TH-cam after compression. Hopefully it gives the idea of the theory and mechanics. Often worry the videos are too long though...maybe some shorter ones too?
@@AlexCameron-Depiqd > Three minuet videos are fine, BUT for those of us who need to know the "why" behind the usage, length of video is disregarded as long as we come away having learned the how as well as why and now understand the technique. Good Job!
Thanks!! For your work!! And thanks for breaking the video in different parts really helpful. Remote version is awesome for interviews!! 😍😍😍Thanks again!!
This really helps. Was looking for information on how to color correct all clips from different cameras in a multi-cam shoot, especially for hour-long events, where 100s of clips are involved. Remote grading seems to be one of the better options for this.
It’s great content like this that stands out from the rest. I learned so much from this one video that has dramatically changed my approach to using DR. This video has and will save me hours of work as I previously worked on similar clips in a completely manual and individual way. I applied what I learnt here and what would have taken me a day or so before only took me 20 minutes to complete. Looking forward to more of these insightful videos :-)
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and so glad to hear that you’ve saved time as a result of watching this video! More coming soon so do stay tuned.
wow! I new about a few of these but by no means all. I really like the remote grade idea and the fact that it shows you which clips are from the same source. this is really going to speed things up for me. thanks
That's wicked to hear that you've picked something up that will make a difference to the speed you can work! Thanks so much for letting me know (and for watching the video!)
This is a tremendous video, thanks. I learnt about a lot of features I had never seen before. This will save me a huge amount of time and also help me to get a more consistent look across my videos.
Thank you your presentation is very informative and easy to follow, the various options you have presented are so useful as you can choose which is best for each project you are working on.
Thx a lot. That "remote grades" option really saved me from getting crazy. Selecting 50+ Clips every time I wanted to change something for all of them was just terrible :D
It's a real time saver isn't it!!! Do just make sure you're careful when working on remote and local grades as that can sometimes get confusing. Delighted that this helped you. Appreciate your time in watching and commenting.
Glad you think so! So very kind. Certainly planning to keep things going. Really appreciate you subbing to the channel! PS - sorry it took ages for me to reply properly!
Haha! Yes you’re not wrong. Each one could have more depth too it too. In the Online Courses I have coming out soon, there’s more detail but also follow along learning too.
Thank you so much! Delighted to hear your a new subscriber and you’ve already found some useful stuff on the channel. Hopefully it demystified some things for you a little. Hope to see you in the comments of other videos soon too. If you have any questions that you can’t find the answers for, also please feel free to reach out!
Dude, fantastic video, I've been looking for something like this for a long time and not finding anything as good as this to help with grading - I'm a total noob and need all the help I can get haha! Thank you!
Hey Mikey, you’re so welcome. It can be a little overwhelming when you’re new to it. I really hope this helped a little. Appreciate you watching and commenting.
Amazing video… I’ve watched it several times and I’ve sent it to all my friends. Certainly can’t learn all the methods but I’ll pick my two favorites. I want to know… How did you learn all this?
So for me, with just two clips, middle mouse button did nothing, and the equals sign did nothing. However, the "apply grade" method worked. I had seen this before but wasn't clear that I needed to right-click on the clip I was copying *from* to make it work. Thanks, very helpful!
Great video!!! Thanks! I'm trying to figure out a copy paste grading process that doesn't affect stabilization already donde for each clip. Does that even exist or I have to redo all stabilization on each clip again?
Wow! I wonder why such a comprehensive tutorial has such low visibility? Sometimes, I wished there was a switch to correct TH-cam's flawed algorithm to support such good tutorials get more visibility and certainly more subscribers :) Cheers from Bangalore, India!
That's so very kind of you. Thank you. Really glad that you enjoyed the video and took the time to comment. I try my best, TH-cam will catch up with me at some point I hope! My best to you.
Thanks for that. I wish resolve had track specific effects and grading like Vegas Pro it's a lot less convoluted when you want to apply things to multiple clips.
Your explanations deserve more views! Great work! I’m currently switching to davinci due to workflow but it baffles me how poorly (workflow) optimized Adobe out of the box is. (Also davinci zero crashes for using it a week now vs a crash a day (?) with Adobe)
Thank you SO much! I'd certainly like to be able to help more people so do tell your friends, as they say! Really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. I agree though. I switched to DaVinci from Premiere and also Final Cut Pro X. Prefer it SO much more! Glad you're getting on with it well too.
This was excellent. I have one question. I have a multicam clip created from ATEM Mini Pro ISO files (I'm not using the DR project file that ATEM creates). My timeline is complete and can't figure out the smart filter to filter on multicam clip angle. Got advice?
Thank you, Craig. That's a great question and whilst I feel as though it should be possible, there isn't a smart filter option that enables you to use the Multicam Clip Angle or Name (from the track header of the MC clip). I'd recommend a slight workaround as I'm an advocate for flattening your multi-cam clip before you do any grading or exporting of your project. So, 1) Duplicate the timeline and rename or add suffix 'grade' or 'final'; 2) Open the MC in the timeline (right click > Open in timeline); 3) Select all the clips in V1 and add the number 1 to the metadata field for 'Angle'; 4) Repeat this step of all clips in V2 but put 2 in the Angle field; 5) Repeat for all the tracks you need to number; 6) Open the duplicated timeline again; 7) Select all the MC clips then right-click and then Flatten MultiCam Clip; 8) Open the flattened timeline in the Colour page and now filter by Angle (Media Pool properties) and you should then be filtering the timeline clips based on their angle metadata.
@@AlexCameron-Depiqd wow, that's quite a workaround, 8 steps. To follow along your suggestion, I need to learn what flatten is. Looks like a should post my comment in the DR forum as a feature request. I was able to hobble through my video and got the colored corrected (thanks to you after watching this.) Thanks for the response.
Oh!! Thank you!! This is going to be really useful. Tank's a lot!! Could I ask you about another problem I have? Vignette... It turn out like bad looking, unsmooth circles when I render timeline... (It's blue on partely black, a danceshow on stage...) Do you know how to come around that...?
You’re so very welcome! I’d love to help…so tell me, how are you creating your vignette? Power window to taste and then adjusting the gamma master wheel down slightly with plenty of softness?
@@AlexCameron-Depiqd THANKS! I´m using effect library. And softness. it looks pretty good on timeline (cinema view) but gets really ugly when I render ... (Glow gives the same blocky effect by the way)
A bit too much information at one time but we can pick our favorite and just watch that a couple of times. After we've fiddled about and messed everything up, is there a way to remove ALL color corrections from every clip at the same time. Thanks.
I add such videos to specific playlists I make and watch multiple times. This is not the easiest of programs to learn but I've wasted too much time and money on the other programs and therefore appreciate the thoroughness.
awesome post mate! quick question: are you using an apple mouse? having a hard time "copying/pasting" just with the click using the apple mouse... thanks in advance!
Thanks so much Gabriel. Really appreciate your comments. To answer your question, no not using an Apple mouse. As you say, it's very hard to use the third mouse button commands with an Apple mouse. I have the MX Master from Logitech but you don't need that one. I would highly recommend getting a mouse with a dedicated scroll wheel/third mouse button. Razer do some great ones as do Logitech that also have other customisable buttons than you can have run small macros and shortcuts to helps speed up your workflow. Hope that helps!
Does anybody know why the "Add Into new Group" option might not be available for me? Working with Canon Cinema Raw Lite Clips in addition to Panasonic GH5 Vlog clips in a 1080p timeline 23.976fps
On a related topic, could you do a tutorial on working with text and titles? Specifically, how to get consistent titles across the entire project when you have lots and lots of text elements in the project. I can't tell you how many times I have had to re-render a final project because I forgot to turn on shading in a text element.
Great idea. Where are you doing your titles and text? In the edit page and using Text+ effect? Or are you using Fusion Templates and Macros. This can be a super handy way of ensuring consistency and continuity without having to copy and paste or make up from scratch.
Found apply grading doesn't work if you use two different film sources on a timeline. They seem to have to be from the same source video rather than multiple ones shot on different cameras.
Man... I was looking for this info for a while... Da Vinci is so powerful, but so not intuitive.. I'm trying to switch from Final Cut, and obviously I see many power option I did not have in FCP.. BUT... I'm soooo much slower now.. It's kind of frustrating... Hope I get there.. little by little
Keep at it man! The learning curve is well worth the effort. What is the main work you're doing? Are you working as part of a team or do you work solo on projects?
We desperately need a video on how to send your entire project off to a storage drive and then recalling it when we need it. I find Resolve 17 to be very weak in this aspect, but it could be me. Premiere Pro is just perfect at it. But again, maybe it’s me. Also when I do get it working, it doesn’t seem to save subclips...help!
Thanks for your comments. Have your tried using a project archive? That for me normally ticks all the boxes. The other option is to use the Media Management feature possibly. Not sure what you've tried already?
That’s a good point and most things can also be done with either a keyboard shortcut or menu item too. That said, even a cheap mouse with a middle mouse button would be a really good investment. Should cost the earth either. Out of interest, what function in particular are you missing out on without the middle mouse click? I take it you have a trackpad/laptop?
@@AlexCameron-Depiqd yes, track pad. I rest it on the arm of my sofa when I'm on it so no room for a mouse, Haha. I'll check the settings for a middle mouse click, it would make things a lot easier. Thanks
it is un-intuitive but you use same process as the still and that you just drag the still into nod area in new clip and it appears as shared nod :D :D this is magic done by resolve :D

A bit too much information at one time but we can pick our favorite and just watch that a couple of times. After we've fiddled about and messed everything up, is there a way to remove ALL color corrections from every clip at the same time. Thanks.
I add such videos to specific playlists I make and watch multiple times. This is not the easiest of programs to learn but I've wasted too much time and money on the other programs and therefore appreciate the thoroughness.
awesome post mate! quick question: are you using an apple mouse? having a hard time "copying/pasting" just with the click using the apple mouse... thanks in advance!
Thanks so much Gabriel. Really appreciate your comments. To answer your question, no not using an Apple mouse. As you say, it's very hard to use the third mouse button commands with an Apple mouse. I have the MX Master from Logitech but you don't need that one. I would highly recommend getting a mouse with a dedicated scroll wheel/third mouse button. Razer do some great ones as do Logitech that also have other customisable buttons than you can have run small macros and shortcuts to helps speed up your workflow. Hope that helps!
@@AlexCameron-Depiqd thank you!

Thanks for the video! When I turn on "Use remote grades" all my color correction of the entire clip takes off. Am I doing something wrong?
what Lut are you using?...I'm interested in getting some Luts.
Does anybody know why the "Add Into new Group" option might not be available for me? Working with Canon Cinema Raw Lite Clips in addition to Panasonic GH5 Vlog clips in a 1080p timeline 23.976fps
On a related topic, could you do a tutorial on working with text and titles? Specifically, how to get consistent titles across the entire project when you have lots and lots of text elements in the project. I can't tell you how many times I have had to re-render a final project because I forgot to turn on shading in a text element.
Great idea. Where are you doing your titles and text? In the edit page and using Text+ effect? Or are you using Fusion Templates and Macros. This can be a super handy way of ensuring consistency and continuity without having to copy and paste or make up from scratch.
@@AlexCameron-Depiqd currently i use text+ in edit page. i create one on the timeline and then duplicate it as needed
Found apply grading doesn't work if you use two different film sources on a timeline. They seem to have to be from the same source video rather than multiple ones shot on different cameras.
When I make adjustments on one clip it automatically adjusts across all the other clips. What is happening
Man... I was looking for this info for a while... Da Vinci is so powerful, but so not intuitive.. I'm trying to switch from Final Cut, and obviously I see many power option I did not have in FCP.. BUT... I'm soooo much slower now.. It's kind of frustrating... Hope I get there.. little by little
Keep at it man! The learning curve is well worth the effort. What is the main work you're doing? Are you working as part of a team or do you work solo on projects?
We desperately need a video on how to send your entire project off to a storage drive and then recalling it when we need it. I find Resolve 17 to be very weak in this aspect, but it could be me. Premiere Pro is just perfect at it. But again, maybe it’s me. Also when I do get it working, it doesn’t seem to save subclips...help!
Thanks for your comments. Have your tried using a project archive? That for me normally ticks all the boxes. The other option is to use the Media Management feature possibly. Not sure what you've tried already?
Good
i don't have a middle mouse button on mabook
🤯
Thundercats!
HO! 😉
Hmm....in Resolve 17.4...several of these techniques no longer work. The plus and minus key technique only makes the picture bigger or smaller.
I just need a tutorial where they don't use a middle mouse button
That’s a good point and most things can also be done with either a keyboard shortcut or menu item too. That said, even a cheap mouse with a middle mouse button would be a really good investment. Should cost the earth either.
Out of interest, what function in particular are you missing out on without the middle mouse click? I take it you have a trackpad/laptop?
@@AlexCameron-Depiqd yes, track pad. I rest it on the arm of my sofa when I'm on it so no room for a mouse, Haha. I'll check the settings for a middle mouse click, it would make things a lot easier. Thanks
19:02 @AlexCameron-Depiqd you are a cheater :D hod did you saved shared nod as still ?
it is un-intuitive but you use same process as the still and that you just drag the still into nod area in new clip and it appears as shared nod :D :D this is magic done by resolve :D
