I finished my three-part webinar series on how to integrate DaVinci Resolve with an existing Final Cut Pro or Premiere Pro workflow. These sessions look at using the Cut page for faster editing, the Color page for better color grading and the Fairlight page for better audio sweetening and mixes. To celebrate, I created a bundle where you can get all three and save 50%! Here are the details.
By they way, I enjoyed presenting these sessions on Resolve - and I'm grateful to Mary Plummer from Blackmagic Design for sharing her insights on the software. The response to all three sessions was very strong, so I'll be back with more Resolve sessions in the future.
For now,
webinars are on hiatus until January 12. If you have suggestions on what you would like me to cover, please
email them to me. I'm
always interested in new ideas!
This holiday week, I celebrated another milestone:
2,500 published tutorials! I wrote my first tutorial in January, 2004. 18 years later, I'm still writing. That's pretty amazing to me. I never expected to create that large a body of work. All of them are available on my
Free Resources > Tutorials page.
I have four new tutorials for you this week, including two that were submitted by other writers. Lloyd Walker found a quick work-around for the Spinning Beach Ball of Death when you see it in Final Cut.
Rebecca Alston has suggestions on where to search for creative ideas.
And, with the New Year upon us, I show how to create a fun "Happy New Year" animated video in Motion to celebrate the season.
Plus, if you are looking for ways to polish your skills, remember all the training that's available in my
store or the
Video Training Library.
Sigh... The pandemic looks like it will be with us for a while longer, theaters are struggling to find audiences, budgets are down for everyone not named "Spiderman," and production crews around the world are struggling to make ends meet. It is a difficult time to feel like celebrating. But, rather than focus on everything wrong, let's look for opportunities to use the skills we have in new ways. Video is the dominant communication medium on the planet. There are a lot of people looking for better ways to reach audiences. And, to me, that means each of us has an opportunity to help them find it.
Until next week, Happy New Year! (May it be better than the last!) Edit well.
