I've never laughed out loud watching any DaVinci Resolve tutorial videos, until now. The FART BOOM.mp3 killed me. Humor is on another level. LIFETIME SUBSCRIBER!!!
Easily one of the greatest RUclips tutorials… of all time. Thank you Zach!! Been teetering on switching from premiere to Davinci for yonks now and finally made the plunge which led me here. Literally how you explained the pain points of premiere is my internal rage dialogue every day working in it. RIP Adobe. Instant subscribe ❤
Beautifully paced easy to learn workflow. Appreciate you. Went to Capcut Pro for awhile because of how fast it was for shorts, but now back to Davinci because of Capcut Pro price increases
One of the most helpful videos I have ever watched! Nice one Zach! In the process of finishing my last project in Premiere before the big move. I have done some practicing in Resolve and so far I love it! The colour grade trick of copying the grades between clips… wow! What a time saver that is! 👌🏻
Dude this is exactly what I needed. I have been editing in premiere for the last 7 or 8 years. This definitely demystified the switch. Excited to try it out. Thanks for the tips!
Such a great thought-of, simple, natural, funny, yet not overproduced and manipulatively overthought content from Zach. I recently started using the program as well, I know most of (but not well) what's thought by you, but it was still a pleasure to dive through, laugh a bit, and learn a few bit tiny things from you. A pleasure watching your content, keep it real.
Wow, I bit the bullet and got Davinci Resolve 2 days ago and this is the first Premiere to Davinci change tutorial that actually helps. So in-depth, so funny. Thanks dude!
I really love the way you teach and explain core concepts. i've been editing for a while and wanted to switch, but you not only explaining a tool/workflow but also giving examples for their utility really helped me understand and "get it". Great work, in another life you would've been a teacher for sure!
Man this is exactly what I wanted and your style just made it perfect. Felt like a friend is sharing it with me. Hope you have made or make more such videos of transitioning will be really helpful
Been on Premiere for as long as I can remember, and was of course overwhelmed by this change, but this video is great, and helped me a lot thank you, youre a legend!
Was super overwhelmed trying to transition but your downloadable keyboard shortcuts and your personality in this video made the whole process actually enjoyable haha thank you for this!
Thank you thank you thank you.. i was watching the resolve website tutorials but they aren't making the exact style of videos there that i make. But this is exactly what i needed to quickly go through the basics. But i wished you would've shared the "speed ramping" and "masking" methods also but maybe for another day. But hey, Thanks again zach!
no thank YOU! I thought about including those things but honestly my knowledge is very limited on those topics. Although I did see that Resolve's latest update has some crazy magic masking that I plan on testing!
Best thing I ever did. I've used Premiere over 8 years but I was finally fed up with all the BS so I decided to give it a try. It asks you what program you used before so it setups timeline similar to program that you used. Give it a day or two and you will never go back, just like that first iPhone you got instead the android. You never look back!
These videos have been a savior Zach! For someone who’s been using Pr for 6 years, it’s exciting to try a new software but even better when someone explains things super well. Cheers Zach! 🤙🏼
What an awesome video from start to finish. I laughed, I cried. But seriously, I hit the point of no return with Premiere this week when my spec'd up M2 Pro Mac couldn't handle a 4K clip in the timeline without constant beach-balling and using 103% CPU (?!?!). Da Vinci is a breath of fresh air but learning a new tool after 10+ years of Adobe was/is terrifying. This video helped loads, so thanks
to say this video was helpful is an understatement, it made the transition to davinki that much easier, not only did i really learn a lot, but also had a good time. really enjoyable video!
You forgot also Windows 11 as a reason with it's new AI Copilot. Many will switch to Linux and this is a great option as Premiere only works on Windows.
Dude you're awesome, love your vibe. And thanks for this perfect video, i'm a professional industry editor trying to understand the davinci landscape. Cheers man
Thanks Zach! The humorous breaks really helped follow along. You stand out from the average cringy youtube tutorial. I edited my first video on DaVinci in a day after this tutorial!!!
Thanks so much for this, Zach! I've just decided to "leave the dark side" and make the switch to Resolve. Your video has been SUPER helpful in giving me a quick introduction to the Resolve interface. (I don't think it will be as difficult as I expected!). I know I'll be referencing this video again as I work through my first Resolve project. Thanks again! :)
I know I'm waaaaaayyy late to the party, I'm just learing DaVinci and good god is this video absolutely amazing at getting set up. Thanks so much for this!
Great Video. Easy to understand, solid humour and actionable! Love you for the free keyboard bindings that are quite similar to my previous premiere ones.
yeww! this was so good zach!! Tab shortcut is genuis! (also not really the same but I mapped G to "normalize audio" - kinda hits the same as audio gain in pr)
🤣🤣🤣🤣wow at this point I almost need to find your premiere pro video. Very nice so far... got me excited for migrating away from Premiere... Instant subscriber from the US Virgin Islands. I cracked up throughout and also responded as if we were conversating in person. Very impressive
Really good. Love your thinking and practicality. One question remains for me. Is there a possibility to see the keyboard shortcuts on the displayed keyboard without putting your cursor on it? Like in PP?
If you're still looking for this I figured it out. Open the Keyboard Customization Window > Click the Search bar on the far right next to the Show All Dropdown Menu> Type in show > Scroll Down to Workspace > Hit the Arrow Next to Show Panel in Workspace > Scroll Down to Where it Says Medial Pool > Select the Blank Area Next to that and Press Tab > Then You're Done and Your Macro is Now Set. Hopefully this helps. :)
22:37 I * think * I figured it out: I think audio gain in Davinci is "Increase Volume." I tried typing "increase" instead of "gain" into the keyboard preferences, "Monitoring" popped up, and if you click on it, "Increase Volume" shows up. Hopefully that works!
Great video! Somehow I came away learning how to cut my cat's nostril hairs. Also, thank god you showed that export project feature. I almost uninstalled the DaVinci when I saw I couldn't save project files. I use my own cloud system and I need to be able to save project files in a specific locations, not some top secret database on my C drive. I'll give DaVinci another chance and hopefully that feature does what I need! I can't wait to drop the buggy, bloated mess that is Premiere.
Thank you so much for this video! I was wondering, when you click Q to delete the first part of a clip, is it possible to make it not leave an empty gap? In Premiere Pro it also shifts the clip back so that there is not a gap between. (Hope that makes sense) Thanks so much!
It took me a hot minute to make the jump, but I'm feeling stoked. A big thing I miss is the transform effect in premiere. I loved making crazy zooms with motion blur.
I love adobe but there 2 reasons Im about to switch: 1st: Monthly subscribtion (technicly not a problem but the price they want monthly is not fair imo) 2nd: you have most of the programs in pne program (sound editing, "after effects" etc etc)

*KEYBOARD SHORTCUT RECAP*
A lot of his shortcuts are the same as the Adobe Premiere defaults but the shortcuts he added are really helpful and I am excited to use them as I transition to Davinci. Thanks Zach!
TAB = OPEN MEDIA POOL
Q = TRIM START OF CLIP
W = SPLIT CLIP
E = TRIM END OF CLIP
I = IN
O=
, = ADD TO END OF TIMELINE
*SKIMMING CLIPS*
J = REVERSE
K = STOP
L = FORWARD
R = SPEED
X = RIPPLE DELETE
S= SNAP
Feel free to correct me if I mixed any of these up or missed any.
tysm
i'm not finding "open media pool" anywhere. how can i find it?

@@CurlyEditor THANKS you're a lifesaver :D was struggling for like 10 mins
I've never laughed out loud watching any DaVinci Resolve tutorial videos, until now. The FART BOOM.mp3 killed me. Humor is on another level. LIFETIME SUBSCRIBER!!!
I'v just switched, and im loving it. Refreshing, after years of adobe workflow it feels smoother and organic.
Refreshing is the perfect word. I feel like my hair is growing back from lack of stress
@@ZachMayfield Hahaha, same here, i even started to push out the trauma of using proxy files! :)
are you still using davinci one year later?

The colour grade trick of copying the grades between clips… wow! What a time saver that is! 👌🏻
If all your clips are very identical, you can also do a timeline based grade. Or for example the color space transform in one go.
Dude this is exactly what I needed. I have been editing in premiere for the last 7 or 8 years. This definitely demystified the switch. Excited to try it out. Thanks for the tips!

Your humor is so underrated

I've been a Premiere holdout for way too long and this is the video that made me flip.
to say this video was helpful is an understatement, it made the transition to davinki that much easier, not only did i really learn a lot, but also had a good time. really enjoyable video!
I did it Zach, I finally committed and switched to Davinci. This tutorial helped me greatly, theres not turning back now!
You forgot also Windows 11 as a reason with it's new AI Copilot. Many will switch to Linux and this is a great option as Premiere only works on Windows.
RUclips deserves creators like YOU my man, beautiful vid! Cheers 🥂
Dude you're awesome, love your vibe. And thanks for this perfect video, i'm a professional industry editor trying to understand the davinci landscape. Cheers man
Most helpful tutorial of all time, thanks for the shortcut preset download as well!!! instant subscribe
this was great. I'm very used to Premiere, but now instantly feel faster in devinci than in Premiere thanks to your shortcuts.
Another tip when creating another serial node is you can press alt+s to create a new node already shoe-stringed together after the selected node.
Much faster, much easier.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS!
Thanks Zach! The humorous breaks really helped follow along. You stand out from the average cringy youtube tutorial. I edited my first video on DaVinci in a day after this tutorial!!!

This video was awesome!
Thanks for making this
I've started the switch to resolve, editing the first wedding job that I filmed last week. Thanks for the tips my guy!
Best of luck Dan, I think you're gonna enjoy it after you get used to the interface!
Great Video. Easy to understand, solid humour and actionable! Love you for the free keyboard bindings that are quite similar to my previous premiere ones.

Tab shortcut is genuis!
(also not really the same but I mapped G to "normalize audio" - kinda hits the same as audio gain in pr)
Thanks for your shortcuts, saved my job
Great tutorial, thank you! Just switched from Adobe Premiere and this helps a ton.
Thank you so much! Great to have a tutorial where I can learn and laugh :D
Nice - this one is going to help out a lot of folks ready to make the switch.

Loved this video. Not only informative but entertaining as well. Good job.
Thanks Zach! I've been waiting for this, since you mentioned it recently, to also finally make the switch!
I wish you the best of luck on this journey. It may not always be easy, but I assure you it's worth it brother.
I love that we are all feed up with adobe. lets goooo zachhh!
Super helpful thanks for this! Been sus about making the switch but this vid has given me hope!
killin' it!!
Thank you
This is so helpful! thank you so much!
Thankful.I am just switch the programs,but am stuck for long time.
Thank you Sir!
Thanx a lot.. this was the best. this video is epic level good. I dont know this video saved a ton of time for me. take love from India
Amazing tutiorial thank you so much! Super helpful ❤
Bloody epic video. Thank you!
Thanks a lot! I struggled a lot to get used to it
Incredibly helpful! Thanks!
Awesome vid! Looking forward to more tutorials from you. You're a great teacher!
Haha great content! Plain simple and fun
Best tutorial ever
Thank you I appreciate the help man
🤣🤣🤣🤣wow at this point I almost need to find your premiere pro video. Very nice so far... got me excited for migrating away from Premiere... Instant subscriber from the US Virgin Islands. I cracked up throughout and also responded as if we were conversating in person. Very impressive
Just when I wanted to switch to Resolve! I will watch this carefully :) Thanks Zach for the video
It's just for you :)
amazing brother thank you so much for this 😍😍
very helpful video, thank you zach! i love ur humour :)
You had me at gamma correction luts
is there a video where you cover how you made your 80's retro motion graphics intro title?? Looks amazing!
Thanks
Really helpfull, thanks!
Really good. Love your thinking and practicality. One question remains for me. Is there a possibility to see the keyboard shortcuts on the displayed keyboard without putting your cursor on it? Like in PP?
Dang, this video was amazing!
how you set tab to open media pool? Can't find the exact command please help
If you're still looking for this I figured it out. Open the Keyboard Customization Window > Click the Search bar on the far right next to the Show All Dropdown Menu> Type in show > Scroll Down to Workspace > Hit the Arrow Next to Show Panel in Workspace > Scroll Down to Where it Says Medial Pool > Select the Blank Area Next to that and Press Tab > Then You're Done and Your Macro is Now Set.

Its help me a lot👊
and also entertaining me😂

yeah, BlackMagic name their things different and uses more technical industry terms. Something a PP user will have to deal with.
FİRST REASON NOT PAY MONTHLY
Love adobe but ya this is the reason I’m switching. Paying monthly is a scam.
Thank you!
Thank you a lot man
Your tutorial is too good
Amazing vid !

You can save your video files and project files, wherever you want.

I don't know what shortcut he used for Q, but when you either use backspace or Delete, they act different. One deletes the gap, the other doesn't.
Hell yes , subscribed
Thank ya doll!!
Gracias, explicas muy bien
Was unsure whether to subscribe or not. Then came the fart boom. Subscribed immediately.
Option S to make a new color node.
Im so glad you made the switch Zach, Davinci is ten times better then premiere.
It took me a hot minute to make the jump, but I'm feeling stoked. A big thing I miss is the transform effect in premiere. I loved making crazy zooms with motion blur.
@@ZachMayfield Use Fusion for that. It's also better (more accurate result).
This is Awesome
Loved the video! Can you tell which software you used to record the screen?
Glad you made the switch. Adobe has gone hungry and their like they are leechers on your money. Most of the time Adobe application keeps crashing
I love adobe but there 2 reasons Im about to switch:
