Check out this video on Color Grading Basics in Davinci Resolve → ruclips.net/video/Gz_QzBdHDYc/видео.html **UPDATE** - Toggling the timeline snapping is defaults to the "N" key, not to "S" like I had mentioned in the video. That is from my custom layout.

Some cool functions are: 1) Power Bins. They are really powerful. Allowing you to put your frequently used media into it, like memes, music, and sound effects. In a new project, you then pull the folders into the project master folder and are now able to search everything. It is much much faster than having to search everything in the windows file explorer. The structure could look like this: Master - audio - footage - memes - music - sound effects - stock footage Having the footage in its separate folder makes the project explorer look really clean. 2) Adjustment layers can be amazing to save time. Not just for color grading but I also put effects on them. For example, if I have static footage where I want to add a little movement I put camera shake on the adjustment layer do my settings once, and then put the adjustment layer into the power bin so I can always reuse it. 3) If you have effects you frequently use with similar settings use the ability to save to make presets.

You simplified so many things I've been looking for in other videos in less than like 30 seconds each. Idk why other people are so long-winded. Thanks homie!
Organization is key!! 😂 I set all my clip colors to the number keys and F keys so when I’m cutting I just press one button and it automatically colors that for me. I have a system with those and when I review clips I know which color is used for what. Especially if you have gaming clips.
One of the things me and my coworker hot keyed is "Auto Align Clips By Waveform" and "Unlink/Relink Clips" Toggle. Super helpful if you're making a lot of short videos with external mic audio. Also, keep premade intros and outros in a master bin if you're working across different projects!
If you want to reset the transform options after you moved something around (zoom, moved up, etc) when a clip is selected, double click the option you want to change. Example being if you want to reset the zoom, just double click the word zoom and it goes back to its original position.
I don't know how is it possible to have only a bit over 7.000 views in this video. It's so helpful and full of information. I'm coming back to it constantly. Thank you for the time you put to make this video!!!
Great video Dunna, nice to see someone moving from Premiere Pro and showing that you don't have to use software that costs a fortune and you can use something that is totally free that does just what most people need! Love the orange loading bar on the Skillshare text, very subtle dude 🤘
Funny thing is that I bought the studio version within like a week of starting to use davinci 😂 so I ended up spending a bunch of money on it anyway. But just once. And thanks for the kind words! That was one of my first experiments in fusion!
@@dunnadidityeah well you probably will make use of the paid for version 😜😜 There are lots of people that want to have a go at editing and the majority of RUclips videos are Premiere Pro, I've found Davinci Resolve and picked up the basics really easily and made a couple of videos recently, but knowing more shortcuts will defo help 👍
As a longtime user of Final Cut Pro X just beginning the transition to Davinci Resolve, this video is INCREDIBLY helpful. Resolve seems so incredibly intuitive, but from a completely different angle than Final Cut.. hence the re-learning process. Thank you!
You literally saved me. Every other video I watched was just confusing and they were rambling, but you actually showed how to PROPEPLY use it! Tysm!!!!
New Resolve user here from Shotcut. I spent several hours looking for vid tutorial on how I can move the playhead without dragging it each time. Or moving it to start/ end of clips. Finally, this video! Thank you so much! Life and time saver. Money saver? Soon. Well, if I could save time editing, save electricity, then save money. So yes, still a money saver! lol.
Just stumbled onto this video and damn, thank you so much! Been trying my best to learn this program and it's progressing slowly but nicely and this video really helps out 💪
If there's not a shirt available that says Time is Money and Money is Coffee soon, I'm going to be highly disappointed Dunna. Solid tips man! I think the only one I would have added is all of the JKL functions: J: Play in Reverse K: Pause L: Play Hold K and J/L: Play in Slow Motion Hold K and Tap J/L: Move forward/backward by one frame Also, tapping J or L while the video is playing will increase the speed. AND now I know what Monday's video is going to be about lol.
This was extremely helpful. Coming from Windows Movie Maker, which really does all I need it to in my YT movies, I need to "upgrade" because MM bombed out when I loaded 4K clips from my new GoPro10. I installed Davinci and was completely overwhelmed. A couple beginner YT videos helped, but this was the most helpful because like you mentioned, I just want to load all my clips all at once and get to editing. Thumbs up and thanks again.
Very helpful! I've just started uploading content and moved over from using Hitfilm and a lot of the shortcuts like DEL threw me off at first. Should hopefully speed up my turnarounds, Thanks!
YESS! Thank you, these tips are perfect! Also, there's an "Edmonton" location showing on this video, and I lived there for a couple years and really love that city! Anywho, carry on. 😁👊
HI.... Dunna Did It.. Sir your video is verry helpfull for me , I am from India My major problem is english pronauncesion of other country , But your video is verry clear pronauncetion to learn & I learn easily Thanks sir 😊😊😊
Knew a lot but learned a few things, for instance the option Y to select all tracks instead of activating it and disabling it again. Option select to delink clips on the fly. Allways something to learn on your NLE ! 😁 Cheers Dunna 🙏
Well, D, you continue to help me in my transition from hobby photo-guy to hobby video-guy. Every time I search on the next item on my list, there you are. With no video editing experience I decided on DR17 b/c I'm a PC-guy and it has good reviews. Okay, so how do I make it "go" now? And here you are paving my way... again. I'm sure these are good time-saving tips b/c I know your professionalism by now, so I watched this as I'm confident it will help me once I learn how to get a few clips loaded into it. 🤣. The more I learn the more I understand what an expert you are! Thank you.
So check it out I have been using this software for close to 13 years in order to move an item instead of ctrl v or ctrl c (hold alt and drag it) literally lets you drag it anywhere and it works for transitions... Also to edit a bunch of transitions in tons of clips layered like 5 or 6 you can add multiple transitions of one transition by right clicking the transition and the bottom option. Great video dude got my sub
That was a near perfect video. I have a lot of friends that I’m convincing to switch over to resolve… I am going to send them your video because your video is the perfect start.
07:40 this, this is what i was looking for sooo long and no other tips and tricks videos tell anything about, thank you soooo much! Trying to jump to davinci resolve but without the Q and W from premiere pro i wouldnt even try because cut and delete is so slow for me
if you have two screens there is a dual screen mode in the "workspace" tab which i find very convenient you can press L to play forward, if you press L twice, it will play the video faster vithout changing the actual speed of the video.
This is single handley the best video ive seen on DR, thank you so much. Also question, I have davinci resolve studio 17, should i upgrade and get the newest free one?

Wish I saw this before I took notes 😅. I guess taking notes helps retain info.
Epic!
I wish there would be more people like u 👍

I need to make a cheat sheet and post it above my monitor. These tips are extremely helpful.

My favorite way of cutting is switching the split and putting the keybind to s.
It's real fast and simple for me, hopefully this tip helps others out.

the ripple delete tip is HUGE, im definitely trying that right now
That ripple trip to start/end is HUGE. Thank you!
This is fantastic!! Thank you so much. I’ve just moved from Final Cut and this is so so helpful. 🙏
Glad to hear it Emma!
Dunna absolutely does it
I'm editing a video right now and needed to take a break from it to say THANK YOU for doing this video.
I don't know how is it possible to have only a bit over 7.000 views in this video. It's so helpful and full of information. I'm coming back to it constantly.
Thank you for the time you put to make this video!!!
Thanks for saying that! Feel free to help share it on Reddit, Facebook, or wherever you think people might like it!
you have made everything EASIER! THANK YOUUUU!!!
just wanna say I appreciate you dunna. always so helpful and knowledgeable. fav youtuber to learn from by far.
Thanks for the tips! I use the free version of Davinci Resolve to edit my vids; It's amazing what's all possible even in the free version!
Hugely helpful. Thanks so much Dunna!

Best Editing Tips and Tricks Video on the Tube . Thanks for the Info . Love your Content !!
Thanks for watching!
This was useful, Thank You!
timeline - „selection follows playhead“ is very useful
I was aware of the other stuff but the copy/past attributes and the changing clip speed/timing was new to me!
Thanks!
Good to hear there were a couple new ones for you!
Once again beautiful video!!! Helps so much with saving time
As a longtime user of Final Cut Pro X just beginning the transition to Davinci Resolve, this video is INCREDIBLY helpful. Resolve seems so incredibly intuitive, but from a completely different angle than Final Cut.. hence the re-learning process. Thank you!
omg, this video is gold s2 thank you so much
Thank you! Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for writing down the keyboard shortcut commands names. As the English isn't my first language, so it helps me a lot! Cheers!👍
Thanks for the tips. Former fcp-7 then premiere, now resolve, glad i can do all the same things here!
You literally saved me. Every other video I watched was just confusing and they were rambling, but you actually showed how to PROPEPLY use it! Tysm!!!!

Hold K and Tap J/L: Move forward/backward by one frame
Also, tapping J or L while the video is playing will increase the speed.

Awesome. That's what I was looking for ;)
Very good video and explanation!

I may have enjoyed the "dunnabuncha" thing more than I should have. You got an audible chuckle from this guy
Lol 😂
SAME 😂
Hi Dunna, could you make a video how you add effects or manipulator your recorded Voice / audio in DR?
You are the Peter McKinnon for Davinci (but on the better software)! 😁
Simply awesome. THANK YOU A BUNCH. Subscribed!!
Thank you so much dunna... this is gonna save so much time

Just what i need to start playing and learning DaVinci Resolve. Thank You :)
My pleasure! Glad to hear it is helpful!
10/10 Love this thank you
Great video, super helpful!
Thanks!!
WHAT? This video suddenly ended when thought it was just getting started! I think I might give Resolve a try... Really good video. Thank you!
For Ripple Delete
Resize > Start to Playhead = Q
Resize > End to Playhead = W
Are these default settings or your own customizations?
if you have two screens there is a dual screen mode in the "workspace" tab which i find very convenient
you can press L to play forward, if you press L twice, it will play the video faster vithout changing the actual speed of the video.
Great top tips, as always! Man! You've put me in a quandary, Dunna! Do I stick with PREM or switch to Resolve?? 🤔🤔
It’s a tough one! Luckily DR is free for you to try!
Thank you for this. I made the scary leap from iMovie
this video is awesome!! exactly what new editors need to know, thanks so much🙏
I only work in resolve and most of these I knew, but there were a few new tricks I learned from watching this. Thank you for this awesome tutorial!
This is single handley the best video ive seen on DR, thank you so much. Also question, I have davinci resolve studio 17, should i upgrade and get the newest free one?
Thaaank you! You brought light Dunna :))
Practically fantastic! You covered all the mostly used bottle-neck bypassing editing tricks of Davinci Resolve. I'm super stoked to put them into practice. Thank ya D!
Funny, Good info and cleaver you introducing yourself to teach the platform. Got a good laugh. Also Agree ......Coffee.
