My god! I was so overwhelmed by resolve when I first opened it. closed it down so many times because I am so used to premiere. But this 12 minutes just made me think, "Resolve isnt some kind of monster i can't tame!" Thank you so much Denver! Please more videos!
Denver does a good job here, but this vid also makes me appreciate Premiere and being proficient at it. I've not found a convincing case to use resolve over Pr yet but keep my mind open.
The tracking tool is generally excellent in Resolve. AE's rotoscoping tool is great, but just like the tracking in PP, it's terribly slow . As I wrote in the comment before yours, I really appreciate PP and still do, but since then I now *have* found convincing reasons to switch to Resolve. If you want to throw in a couple of gradients that are tracked through a 20 second shot you can get the whole grade complete in under a minute, whereas in PP it could take much longer and be way more tricky to do. Resolve 12.5 is seriously buggy though, finding 2 or 3 fatal crashes in the first weekend of using it, with more since and a variety of other bugs and audio issues. Rendering out in Resolve is fast and makes full use of my 1070 GPU, but the render options are woeful compared to AME, and even with a control surface, working in Resolve could be faster with more thought behind the UI and use of meta keys. However, even with all the negatives to Resolve, for serious colour work, it's way ahead of PP and definitely worth a look. There are some excellent tutorials from the likes of Casey Faris and Aram K, but the best for finding out a lot of the features are from Daria at Goats Eye View. If you're familiar with post production software such as PP, you can get up to speed with Resolve in 24 hours with the GEV videos.
I really love MC and I even teach it. BUT - it is impossible to ignore the rapid pace of development of Resolve and what you get for free. They literally set the bar for everyone else. If you are planning to release anything that is weaker than the free Resolve, you are toast. I am playing around with v. 14 now and it works really well on my laptop! They are catching up and passing everyone else step by step.
Your grading is definitely a matter of taste, but the tutorial is great, many thanks! The way you can change the lady's hair color was just jaw dropping to me ... do you know how much mathematical procedures are behind this? unbelievable!
YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'VE JUST DONE FOR ME?!?!? I was so intimidated by color grading altogether as a student filmmaker. Watching your tutorial, just gave me so much hope. I have actually fallen in love with color grading as soon as I pressed play on your tutorial. I cannot thank you enough for sharing your wisdom and doing so in the simplest of form for people like me who need to be taught like I'm a 4-year old. I am truly a fan of yours now from here on out, Denver. YOU ARE THE MAN!! THIS TUTORIAL IS EPIC!!! 5-stars!
i only watched 7 mins cause i'm at work, but boy, i learned so much more than in any other colour grading tutorial. Thank you so much for this, you're a God, Denver Riddle!
I'm a Streetmusician that wanted to edit some videos with a nice filter that show me busking .. this is gold! Helped me out! Thank you so much.. just right amount of information, on point, perfect!
I've always kind of avoided REALLY getting to know how to use Resolve despite having had the program for quite a while. I've also owned your LUTs as an excuse to not really HAVE to know how to do it on my own.. but finally I decided to watch this and take notes along the way. It was SO incredibly helpful and I just can't thank you enough. You're really helping me to be a better filmmaker from start to finish.
This tutorial is pure gold. Not a second wasted. So much good information. All tutorials should be like this one, dive right in and get the result. Perfect. Thanks so much!
I'm an absolute noob when it comes to editing and gear of failure stopped me from even attempting an edit but this video honestly has me buzzing to give it a shot. I know there is much to it than just this but Im definitely excited.
You deserve youtube award of the year. TNice tutorials video truly nails it! Very well explained... The way you cut the bullsNice tutorialt and get straight to it..
That's funny I was in Bob Trims class last week and skyped with you. Name's Robbie Bagley. Wanted a refresher on Davinci and just realized that you were the same person. Small world!
Denver this is awesome, point to point easy to understand instructions and straight forward tutorial. You are the best, easy to follow and your tutorials are the best out there on whole world wide web.
Wow, this tutorial is fantastic. I've tried DaVinci Resolve so many times but found it hard to learn. This 12 minutes gave me a great start point. Great narration too!
As an absolute beginner, I watched 10 TH-cam clips, obtaining snippets of info here and there, but nothing from start to finish, and no way to tie things together. Until now. Amazing. Absolute amazing. Thank you.
Hey man, don't know if you would read this but this is a great video. You have truly tried to explain all of the areas of the program. The truth is that it seems complicated but practice makes better haha. Great video!
I've been using Premiere Pro for ten years, so I'm not new to editing, but this is my first stab at DaVinci. You've blown by so many basics that I can't track where you're going, what icons you're selecting, how you're pulling up stuff. I can see this will be a valuable tutorial, but for now I'll have to find a basic DaVinci vid to learn navigation. I'll be back some day. :-)
Great Crash Coarse! Already signed up for Thursdays online Tut. I have just gotten into drone photography which requires quite a bit of post work to look great/decent. Having 0 editing background this was a great starting point.
This was awesome. I want to keep making travel videos and learn more about color correction and grading through Davinci and this was such a seamless run through of everything. Learned a lot from this. Thank you man!
great overview, this program is amazing with color manipulation, really makes the process much easier and has some amazing tools to make it fast and efficient for visual people. thanks for sharing.
Thanks for these videos. Just got 15, and wound up using this tutorial and the one for 15 kinda together since this one had the sample video files and I really wanted to do the color replacement and tracking bits. Very cool tutorials both, and I'm blown away by this great software!
Outstanding video. I have never used DaVinci at all, but I do know another editor (Vegas Pro 10). I love the color correction features so far. I haven't tried it out yet, but it looks like it has what i have been looking for. I expect this to be a reference video for me when I actually start correcting/grading a video. Thank you VERY much for this. :)
Oh thank god for you. This is far and away the best video editing tutorial I have ever seen. You explained everything in plain english, dimmed and pushed aside unimportant stuff, and didn't just explain the workflow, but the reasons for the workflow. And you never used a bunch of smartypants jargon to make yourself sound smart, you just explain the work because it's work and it's important. You are a good teacher.
This tool no doubt seems to be very versatile and I'm sure I will be using it at some point in the future...but for now, all this just went over my head :) Thanks for sharing the video
Thank you so much, I've been looking to switch or at least learn Davinci Resolve (I currently usePremiere Pro) as I've become really interested in grading. This helped loads, unfortunately, I can't make your upcoming webinar due to timezones though.
Only half-way through this tutorial and god-damn it's good. Although I would have to say that this is much better for someone who has spent a bit of time tinkering with the software before watching this.
My god! I was so overwhelmed by resolve when I first opened it. closed it down so many times because I am so used to premiere. But this 12 minutes just made me think, "Resolve isnt some kind of monster i can't tame!"

My workflow is 99% in Premiere Pro but I found that tracking tool pretty amazing. Have I not found that trick in PP?

One of the best and most concise tutorials on resolve. Totally lessens the degree of intimidation I feel when cracking resolve open.
This tutorial is pure gold. Not a second wasted. So much good information. All tutorials should be like this one, dive right in and get the result. Perfect. Thanks so much!

This is probably one of the best on You Tube for Davinci Resolve. I even learned basic Grading principles here. Awesome.

What a fantastic intro to Resolve - lots of information packed into 12 minutes.
Gotta say most informative video out there in the least amount of time! Been following you in the shadows for years, but I have to say great job :)
Thanks so much for taking the time to make this. I just got Resolve and I was intimidated at first, but I understand the interface now!
As many have commented before, this short video is brilliant. Thank you for taking the time.
this was amazing! had to watch it a couple of times over and over but it was super helpful! Thank you!
WOW - this is the FIRST tutorial, where I learned how it worked. AND it makes sense. Thanks
Dear Michael, it's you that make register for youtube, I follow your tutorial from bilibili to your channel here and I'll continue to support
I've been using Premiere Pro for ten years, so I'm not new to editing, but this is my first stab at DaVinci.

This has more info packed into 12 minutes than I ever thought possible. Great tutorial. Thanks.
Great video! It saved me from having to do a lot of reading up, before deciding if this is what I want to use.
Oh man i am about to use this program after being 3 years in this industry. Great work bro.
This tutorial is amazing! For those who can't follow because the tutorial seems fast for them, kindly do a "stop, apply and play" method. Thank you!
This is unbelievably fundamental knowledge and the core essence of the know-how to start learning DaVinci Resolve, THANKS SO MUCH!
