Introduction to Davinci Resolve V15

Challenge with DaVinci Resolve,
Video editing + color correction 🎬

🗒 Course Introduction

(Please note that this lecture does not provide instructor-assisted answers. )

Blackmagic Design's "davinci resolve" is a professionally acclaimed software in the video color correction industry, and has recently introduced a number of functions such as editing, audio, and compositing, evolving into a platform that enables comprehensive video production within a single software.

PART 1: EDIT

• In this part, we'll help you quickly learn the most basic editing and color correction methods in Resolve for those who have never used it before.

PART 2: COLOR

• In the second part, you will learn how to perform basic color grading tasks focusing on the Color function.
  DaVinci Resolve has the feature of working with traditional color correction methods such as lift, gamma, gain, and curve based on nodes.
  You can also use features like the qualifier to correct specific color areas in your image, and the tracker to move user-created window masks according to changes in the image.
  In this way, we will learn the most basic color correction functions one by one from a beginner's perspective.

PART 3: WORKFLOW

• In the third part, we'll learn how to exchange editing information between editing software like Premiere Pro and Resolve.
  We will cover not only FCP7 XML but also EDL conform and cover the basic working concepts of each method.
  We'll explore how to use RAW video clips like Cinema DNG, how to use cube files, one of the look-up table file formats, for color correction, and how to perform resolve operations more efficiently on low-performance computers.
