Ive never seen such an easy tutorial. I've been avoiding the fusion tab for so long because it was really intimidating but you helped me understand so much
I own studio version. Guess these days there are too many watchers on youtube on not enough users who use fusion. Keep up the good work. You deserve more view.
Oh yeah, lots of watchers staying home these days. I think there has definitely been an increase of TH-cam activity, but doubt it will impact the Davinci/Fusion arena too much.
This was really brilliant. Thanks, worked a treat- my only issues in following along was that the polygon wanted to be a curve and the length went to a point, once those were fixed it worked great
Thanks! This was the first time I've dared to properly use the Fusion tab! Though for some reason when I render it, it doesn't really start and just the remaining time continues to increase significantly like 5 min every second. I don't know why it's happening though.
Hey, nice one! Always cool to see some particles being used :) I would give the footage a bit of a bluish overcast just to sell the effect (but I get it, thats beyond what this tutorial was about)
Gargoyles At Work i added a haze the first few times and it definitely helps sell the effect, but left it out in the final due to time. I also left out the size variance and layering another layer of rain and using a ground mask. I was actually trying to get this down to 5 minutes, but apparently that was unrealistic unless i just listed off the settings i used and didn’t explain anything. So this is the final compromise.
Man, ya this bit is easy. Thanks. But I can't seem to find a tutorial that shows you how to add rain drops to the ground planes. I need splashes in some areas. They don't need to match the rain falling at all, I just need random splashes. Is there a tutorial on that? Perhaps you could do another one? :) Thanks again.
Simple and effective, thanks for doing this. I guess I would try and add some dribbles to show some deterioration in the sprite over time (pSpawn?) but that would probably melt my motherboard!
Great idea! I was actually thinking about expanding upon this concept and shooting some water mist through an empty fish tank or something. To do this procedurally, I think it can probably be done with some type of Particle system and a bitmap sprite, but what exactly, I'm not sure yet. I'll have to play around with that one. I was thinking of maybe adding the heatwave tool as sort of a blur/distortion, but it may be easier to just create a new Water Distortion tool since it may need a bit more refraction.
as soon as i was done the original footage just turned into a black screen with my audio and the rain playing. the footage was gone. any ideas on how to fix this?
If i Keyframe the ANgle of my Polygon it doesent chanmger direction by time - it just stays in the angle like at frame 0 for the whole animation... how to make the rain come from one to the other side?... im sad right now :/ But until here it was a very nice tutorial
Great tutorial...I did exactly what you did. Everything is perfect, except that when I come back to edit it shows a black screen. It doesn't show my image. The rain is there but in a black background... Any ideas??Thanks
With the media in plugged into the Media out node, all you need to do is take the output (grey box on the bottom) of the Speedlines tool, and drop it onto the Output of the Media In node. This will merge the tool ontop of your footage. Its already on a transparent background so there shouldn't be any black bg.
So particles are born from an emitter. You can move that emitter around and the particles will follow that path. I'm working on a more indepth video on Particles, but it's a little ways out.
@@CBSuper does this mean I need to use multiple pemitters to stack and form a specifically curved path with continuously moving particles following the entire curve?
Nah, use the Pspawn tool between the Emitter and the Particle Renderer, it will be your friend on this project. That will make each particle along the path become it's own emitter that can spawn it's own particles.
I will definitely look into it. Until then, check out this Snow Tool video ( th-cam.com/video/kzcDO9WocU0/w-d-xo.html I made and you can pick up the macro tool for free on my website www.CBSUPER.com if you want. Just know that it needs to be layered to look more realistic, but I will definitely look into making a new tool or tutorial using the 3d particle system. Cheers!
So i make it exactly like you did ,it is done 99% , but I have a problem with exporting the video , in the preview it's perfect nothing strange but when I press start render , it's like ignoring the layer created in fusion and rendering only video and audio :((
Did you connect the rain effect to the Media Out node in the Fusion Page? Also, is it on a fusion composition, on the clip directly, or on an adjustment layer?
Yes i connected the rain effect in media out but I want to say here on the fusion page it shows me "media in" and "media output" and I deleted the "media in" so I make it a different timeline and try to connect with first timeline but dosen't render together.
@@CBSuper CB Super thanks. Other day I tried to make a experiment. I worked and tried to make the same complex animation in DR and AE but I couldn't with DR. I don't know so much about Fusion as After Effects but I think that AE is much more friendly with Motion Graphics than DR Fusion. What do you think? Regards!
@@benjamincorteslyon6777 Absolutely, when I made the switch to Fusion, I was still heavily versed with After Effects and it was a pretty odd transition. I used to use Nuke, which is also a node-based compositor, but I never used it for Mograph stuff. AE is very mograph friendly and I wish Fusion would add all the things I love about AE, but there are lots of workarounds for what we don't have. My biggest compliant is actually not having support for Adobe Illustrator files, but as long as your designer saves out a .SVG file, you can get around it. But even so, it's still not as easy as the AI file would be to animate (in my opinion). I also really miss some of the AE plugins like Saber and Element 3d. I used those plugins on almost every other project. I've been trying to build my own Saber-ish macro and although it has led to the creation of several other interesting tools, I'm still quite a ways away from getting saber down. If you have the Studio version of DaVinci, you can use the Krokodove plugin to get a 3d mesh from vectors, but it's a tough workaround for Free version users. It drives me nuts that DaVinci lacks an Auto-trace vector system like AE's auto trace (seriously, I need it). I spend a lot of time messing around in DaVinci to bridge the gap with AE, but to be honest, when I need one of those functions, I will usually just jump back over to AE. I really hope that Fusion continues to add in features like they have been recently. But when I think about how this program is free and anyone can use it...it's still kinda crazy. It's really a pipe dream that I never thought I would have seen. I've spent so much money on Adobe programs over the past 15 years or so...so for Davinci to come along and offer a very competitive alternative that is free, well lets just say it was enough for me to switch and start a TH-cam channel..lol. But to make a long story longer, yes, I'll work on putting out more Mograph content.
Also, for simple projects, I think AE is still quicker and easier, but for larger more complex projects, you can't beat the node based workflow. I find its much easier to work omni-directionally and being able to avoid pre-comps is pretty powerful in my opinion.
Rain, rain, go away, click the Fusion tab, it's time to play! :)
I love that! lol
Gonna have to pin this one!
Super useful tutorial! You made it really easy to understand, especially the Bitmap part. Thanks for sharing man :)
Ive never seen such an easy tutorial. I've been avoiding the fusion tab for so long because it was really intimidating but you helped me understand so much
There is so much good stuff in the fusion tab. Its a bit intimidating for sure, but once you grasp the basics, it gets really fun.
Extremely helpful tutorial, learning to love Resolve. Thank you!
Excellent!
Fantastic tutorial. Easy and to the point. Subscribed!
Thanks! Happy to have ya.
You are a hero. a gentleman and a scholar!
Thanks!🙏

Thx for those tutorials, they are clean and short without any useless talk. Really useful and sweet !
You're welcome!
This was extremely useful. thank you!
great video thanks for this worked a treat in my phil collins video for let it rain
Excellent!
I make Stop Motion videos, so I can't exactly take pictures of rain on my set lol, so this is definitely the greatest solution I'm gonna get!
That's a great idea! I've always wanted to try stop motion, but I don't think I have the patience.
@@CBSuper it can be pretty time consuming, I've been doing it for 8 years so I'm used to it
This was really brilliant. Thanks, worked a treat- my only issues in following along was that the polygon wanted to be a curve and the length went to a point, once those were fixed it worked great
Interesting.
I am going to try that tonight. U earned my like and subscription.
"thats gonna be way too thick" got me rolin' on the floor 4:44

This was beautifully concise. Thanks so much!
Thanks for stopping by!
Awesome tutorial, very easy to follow and execute. Thanks!
Very welcome
Thank you so much CB Super! Fantastic video, subscribed!
Thanks!
Really useful!!!
Thanks!
Hi.. Rain looks really good. Easy to setup and configure.
It really is! Of course I would't stop here, more layers! Keep adding more effects to get a more realistic look.
@@CBSuper great idea is to put image sequence in png file instead of polygon. Of course, again great job :))
Thank you so much for this!!!
Welcome!
Result is excellent!
Thats great!
Thanks for this. A very helpful guide x
Glad it was helpful
WOW, that was pretty simple man... Thanks for this, I'll use this method in a future project for sure, you're the best!!
Thanks! Creating rain is surprising simple, but layering in other effects will definitely help sell your atmosphere.
Excellent as always. A lot to learn from you!
Thanks again!

Got it! Did a quick search and found the solution on reddit. Apparently keeping the timeline resolution to full fixed it!
Ahh, good to hear its fixed.
@@CBSuper Yup:)
muy buen video , bien explicado. gracias a este video puede hacerlo .

Yeah, makes sense.
Sometimes the comps are just never ending, I can keep adding stuff if I have no time restrictions. Heh.

They don't need to match the rain falling at all, I just need random splashes. Is there a tutorial on that? Perhaps you could do another one? :) Thanks again.
Using stock footage of rain and mapping it to your footage's ground plane would give the best result.
You Sir, are a life saver

where did u get the background? thing in the field?
Dont remember exactly, but probably got that clip from Pixabay.com
Great job !!!Thankssss U

Thanks.

Wow, this is great!
Is it also possible to randomize the raindrops' length?
Id have to look into that. I think its possible.
If i Keyframe the ANgle of my Polygon it doesent chanmger direction by time - it just stays in the angle like at frame 0 for the whole animation... how to make the rain come from one to the other side?... im sad right now :/ But until here it was a very nice tutorial
Keyframe the angle of the particles.
i need help with resolve 16, when i export a video the video just shows a black screen could you help?
Did you add any effects or anything to the original media? Also, what format settings are you using for export?
@@CBSuper i meant import
Great tutorial...I did exactly what you did. Everything is perfect, except that when I come back to edit it shows a black screen. It doesn't show my image. The rain is there but in a black background... Any ideas??Thanks
One thing, tho, When I started the process, it shows media in and media out. It doesn't show only media out like yours..
With the media in plugged into the Media out node, all you need to do is take the output (grey box on the bottom) of the Speedlines tool, and drop it onto the Output of the Media In node. This will merge the tool ontop of your footage. Its already on a transparent background so there shouldn't be any black bg.
Thanks for the video, CB. Is there anyway to set particles to move along certain curved path instead of moving along straight direction?
So particles are born from an emitter. You can move that emitter around and the particles will follow that path. I'm working on a more indepth video on Particles, but it's a little ways out.
@@CBSuper does this mean I need to use multiple pemitters to stack and form a specifically curved path with continuously moving particles following the entire curve?

You bet! Also check out some of the motion graphics tools I made for DaVinci, they are free to download and use in any of your projects.
