- Hello and welcome to this course,
which is designed to get you up to speed
on DaVinci Resolve 16 in as little time as possible.
My name is Patrick Inhofer.
I've been working in post production for 30 years.
I started in New York City as an editor,
and I've dedicated myself to digital finishing
and color grading for the past 20 years.
In this series you will learn the core information
you need to get through Resolve without stumbling.
It'll also help you decide if Resolve is right for you.
Because DaVinci Resolve is very deep,
you should consider this an introduction.
I've provided to you a 60-second commercial
that you can edit, color correct, add graphics,
mix and render for final delivery.
We start by learning about the various tool sets,
how they're organized, and how you'll move your projects
from rough cut through final rendering.
We step through the process of importing your media.
Using both manual and automated tools
to organize that media.
And then we start building your rough cut
in Resolve's brand new cut page.
Then we use the edit page to finesse your rough cut,
and look at the more advanced trim tools.
Of course,
color correction is essential for a visually cohesive story.
You'll learn how the color page is organized.
How to use color wheels,
curves,
create isolations,
and use the tracker.
Extremely important to your story is sound.
Using the fairlight page, learn how to organize your tracks,
apply EQ at the clip and track level,
and create sub buses to group track channels
for the final mix.
For most of us, the whole point of all of this
is to release your project to the world.
In the deliver page,
you learn how to use preset export templates,
create your own reusable custom export templates,
and set up multiple renders in the render queue.
Yeah, we will cover a lot of ground.
I look forward to getting you started
with DaVinci Resolve 16.
