How To Edit FASTER and EASIER in Davinci Resolve with these 5 Free Plugins

[@Senpai]

Alright guys, how did he do? More Dustin videos in the future??

[@mortFPS]

Dustin 😂

[@LucasLimaNZ]

Yes

[@krismatic_]

Definitely

[@TheT8or]

Probably should keep him. He did good.

[@Gamingwithgleez]

Yeah. He is cool. Very informative.

[@its.SenorSanti]

Resolve is insane, the fact that the license is so affordable and the free version does everything but face detection and 4k editing makes me tingle

[@DustinArmstrongPro]

I know this feeling very well

[@CJ-uh8bk]

The free version can do 4k 60fps, just can't do higher then that

[@IAmKnightsDawn]

What's the license cost?

[@CJ-uh8bk]

@@IAmKnightsDawn $295, which isn't necessarily cheap but that's a one time payment and you will always get updates and the latest versions of the software after buying it

[@IAmKnightsDawn]

@@CJ-uh8bk that's not bad at all.

I went from never opening a video editing software before in Oct 2022, to importing and animating 3d objects (never touched blender before either), creating motion graphics, and all sorts of other wild stuff within 3 months. Fusion is insane, it literally set me apart from the others in my niche, and it's so fast to learn, all very intuitive once you dive in.

[@zonewanderer]

Ah nice to see a familiar face here! I completely agree, your editing definitely is unlike any other in the Elden Ring guides I watched.

[@TitusActualGaming]

@@zonewanderer I appreciate that 🙏👊

[@nguoiiqua855]

Do you use davinci to create all the effects on your channel's videos?

[@TitusActualGaming]

@@nguoiiqua855 I use several programs. Mostly after effects, davinci, and blender

[@ZebraLives]

I would really appreciate it if you started a series with Dustin! I had to learn so much about Davinci Resolve through a collection of both good and bad videos and having to comb through dozens of videos that made it so hard to follow along or understand what’s happening. I appreciate what y’all do for new creators ❤

[@Senpai]

We will definitely do more

[@itskells7557]

Hey buddy, kevin strathvert has an awesome beginner guide to davinci and even give you a sample video so you can edit and follow along with him. Helped me tremendously. Also senpai please make more davinci videos :)

[@placate9051]

​@@itskells7557I just watched and edited along with that video. It's so nice how he explains things so you understand the underlying concept and you're not just copying what he's doing without knowing why you're doing it

[@XxLuvverofMusicxX]

Thanks for the info on the plugins. Just a point, adding the sound library was a bit more involved then advised. After clicking on the "Download" link and agreeing to a usage policy you down load a ".zip" file containing a ".exe" file. You run the ".exe" and chose the folder where you wanted to install the library. I chose the "Audio" folder inside the Divinci Resolvefolder. Then inside the "Fairlight" page simply typing in *** in the search did nothing. I had to click on "Add Library" and then chose the "Fairlight Sound Library" folder inside my "Divinci\audio" folder" and then all the sound effect files are available. I am only starting to play around with video editing as a hobby and cannot believe this software with all these features is available for free. Sound effects are a nice addition also.

[@Heiko-shaves]

The features that are missing are not important, but there is one major difference between the free and the studio version. That difference is the hardware utilization and acceleration. A 30 minute 1080p video render in the free version would take me 15min'ish (with my pc hardware Ryzen 7 5700x, 32gb ram, RTX 3060 12gb), in the studio version that same video takes all of 2 minutes to render (with the same hardware). This hardware utilization is huge. It is a difference like night and day. I used to started the output render, walk away do something else and then eventually come back and upload the video to KZbin. Now it is so fast that I can just stay there, wait and immediately upload the vid. It is worth the $299. My mileage

[@TechnoTim]

Great work Dustin! Nice to meet you!

[@DustinArmstrongPro]

Nice to meet you as well!

[@SnappyScience]

Resolve has been my go to for years and so glad it's getting the love it deserves. These tips, especially magic zoom are brilliant. Good to see more editing vids!

[@SpeculatorSeth]

I really like how flexible resolve is with keybindings. The biggest productivity boost I found was changing my keybindings to all be around asdf.

[@OrionDakota]

Agreed, and the biggest productivity loss is accidentally fat fingering a button for a function I dont understand and spending time googling to figure out whats wrong with Resolve. :P

[@KRZPlayz]

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! My editing has been mediocre at best especially with zoom or dynamic zoom. Being new to anything editing these tools will be a God send... thank you, sincerely!

[@stochasticagency]

MrAlex Tech and Patrick Sterling have been a godsend for many DR users. Thanks for bringing my attention to the Fairlight sound library; I've had Resolve for a year and never knew about it. It's a fantastic collection of Foley sounds.

[@Arkaey]

This came up at a perfect time, I used to have Davinci Resolve when I started making videos but when I was in HS, I was in a TV Production class and was learning Adobe Premiere Pro. I had a subscription for free by the school but then I graduated and I was paying 20 bucks a month, realized why am I paying for it when DR is free. So I've been back to DR and I definitely will try using the first 2 plugins!

[@Naysy]

This is so useful. Thanks so much

[@DustinArmstrongPro]

You're welcome 😎

[@JANK_AF]

As someone who has practiced a little with Davinci Resolve and wanted to get back into it, this video couldn’t of been uploaded at a better time.

[@LucasLimaNZ]

Started editing on Resolve the other week. It is amazing.

[@Petterhagen]

I'm currently editing my first feature film in Resolve. It works like a dream, even in 4K. Their Proxy-flow and Cloud features are insane!

[@chillingeclipsed411]

Firstly: yes please return. 2nd, THANK YOU. I've been dabbling in davinci a bit (former Sony Vegas Pro editor here, made a lot of AMVs) and I've been meaning to wrap my head around Davinci, since I barely have ANY experience, if at all, with AAE, some of the features have intimidated me. So thank you so much for these plugins!

[@ymmq1991]

Resolve by far is the best editing software out there, I really hope they do not mess it up in the future.

[@MaximumSponge]

I have been using Resolve for a while, but seeing some of these plugins is a game changer. I definitely see some uses for them that I plan to implement in upcoming videos.

[@slavicodyssey]

I found davinci last year when I wanted to start my channel and I'm incredibly impressed with it. For a free video editor I'm legit blown away and does 99% of the things I want and need. Only a few complaints but other than that, definitely the best free video editor.

[@Za_Vas]

Literally all I want blackmagic to add to resolve is the ability to customize the layout like you can in premiere

[@counterstrike89]

Yeah, totally, me too.

[@catxsoho]

I think it is a feature on the premium feature, I am not completely sure tho cause I only use the free version

[@counterstrike89]

@@catxsoho That's interesting, will have to look into that, thanks.

[@vinod_damunupola]

Do some search on youtube how to do that...Only weakness I found here is that I cannot edit while rendering another video like premeire + media encoder do.

[@AmalgamAsh]

Uh. Dang. You DO have me debating switching to resolve. My workflow in Premiere is so fast right now and I hate the thought of investing time to learn only to lose time on each video while i learn, and not necessarily know if ill be as quick with resolve but...a lot of what you've shown here already kind of eases that fear because it looked intuitive and fast to do something I would consider time consuming. Bang up job. An editor with good complimentary presence who carries the chill vibe Harris brings. Educational and pro-accessibility. Perfect fit for the brand, please do keep the editing love coming. Cheers from the midwest!

[@JJSEvolution]

These are all absolutely amazing! Been creating videos for a year now (9 months consistently) and the amount I have learned on Resolve is crazy. And this just helps me take it to the next level now thank you so much!!!

[@kelvinrodriguez6796]

I used Premier for a few years and I did try out Resolve. Now that I got rid of my Adobe subscription I've been learning more on how to use Resolve. Your plugins overview was spot on. Many thanks.

[@Bearsrkr]

I liked hearing from Dustin. I've been bumming my way through learning how to use Davinci Resolve for an embarrassingly long time now. I would love to see more videos like this in the future.

[@LEGIONART-]

Just bought myself the Studio Packet and I have to say it is a lot better to work with when you have a RTX30/40 and a 12+ core CPU. It reallly helps making content a lot faster and more efficent. Thank you for the Plugins, really helps me out as I also transitioned from AE/Premiere to Davinci Resolve! Keep up the great work!

[@NaudVanDalen]

I'm sitting here with my almost 10 year old laptop and drawing 8 rectangles on the screen runs at 1.5 frames per second for some reason. I really think that they can optimize it to work as well on my old laptop as it does on your PC currently if they optimize the hell out of it. There's no way my laptop can calculate millions of polygons and pixels and not draw 8 mono color rectangles at more than 5 fps.

As someone learning Davinci Resolve right now coming from Adobe Premiere Elements, I was STRUGGLING with the zooming features last night.

I always forget something.. lol. You're a hero. Adding them now.

[@Ricecooka]

Craaaaazy timing, as I just switched to Resolve for my videos in the last month and have started uploading new vids to my channel using it. I'm coming from....Sony Vegas, so I was definitely out of pocket when I started. It's making more sense now, and I'm amazed at how great it is for the cost. The thing I love the most is that it is SO MUCH MORE STABLE, and then even if it crashes it's doing so many auto-saves that you lose virtually no progress. This is the year of Davinci Resolve KZbin video tutorials I think

Do you find the zoom in and out plugin valuable? I've gotten so used to just doing the key scrolling now with the "x" and "y" coordinates that they really don't seem to take much time for me anymore.

Nice! I've been using resolve for a few years now and absolutely love it! However, editing speed is definitely something I've been trying to improve for a while now. Edit: Wow!

Thanks for making a great tool🙏

[@MINIPRO27]

I already have all of these plugins but nice to see the community agrees these are great

[@NOKEGaming]

I've done the switch about two years ago and been highly recommending it to my friends, and now that they added the auto Subtitling/Text generator. It has made my work flow so much faster.

[@avdpost]

One of my favourite part of the the mrAlexTech plugins are essentially fusion template and macro tools. So you can still dig into it in fusion and customize it further.

[@EricLino]

That's so cool! Thank you guys for this educational material. What I like the most about the DaVinci community is that, just like it's original creators, they are mostly willing to give things for free and incentivate others to learn and evolve. It is indeed a much more friendlier community than adobe's with less secrets. Cheers!

[@BaxTechYT]

Dustin was great! Been using Resolve from the start. Originally just because it’s free, but later upgraded to studio because I never want to switch!

The community is amazing as well. They have a dedicated discord ran by the content creators. Lot of awesome people there!

I worked in FCP for over a decade and I have done very well working with major brands, as its about the editor not the NLE...BUUUTTTTTT...as I have become a "vet" I see the need to step it up and create a team of DR editors! It just makes sense! Thanks and I am going to dive right in!!!

[@OracleFishMTG]

At this point in my life, I'm too ingrained in the Adobe Ecosystem with all of my paid after effects plugins - but I have been using Fusion in Resolve to do my greenscreening. It's literally like a free version of Nuke (VFX industry standard compositing software) which is INSANE! And it's so much easier and more performant to pull a good key, color grade, add some lightwrap, etc than in After Effects.

[@SpazzyjonesGaming]

Great video. As someone just now starting to create content, the first two plugins in particular really make my life easier

[@williambell4591]

Loved seeing your editor in here, yes definitely bring him back again. He was very helpful (and also adorable).

[@LuminairPrime]

The reason for the mic echo is because shotgun mics trade distance from the audio source (bad) for an interference tube which only works on some frequencies, and only sometimes. The interference tube is good if you're overhead micing on a movie set outdoors for example, but in a room like this it just hears a lot of room echo. The stealth disadvantage in this situation is that the sheer size of the interference tube forces the mic capsule away from your mouth. It's important to position the mic capsule as close to the source as possible while keeping a zero percent chance of clipping, plosives, or going off-axis, because this allows lowering the gain, which lowers the volume of everything except the source. The design of the capsule actually has more to do with the pickup pattern than the interference tube. If you snap the interference tube off here and move the mic capsule 8 inches closer, the recording will sound more true. Ideally you would just get a small diaphragm condenser mic without a big interference tube, like Sennheiser MKH 8050 or MKH 8060, and mount it from above, because the mouth tends to be closer to the top of the video frame than the bottom. You can read more about this if you search for Sound On Sound's Technical Editor Hugh Robjohns on shotgun mics. Hope that helps!

[@TheXev]

As a new comer to Davinci Resolve, these plug-ins look like an amazing time saver! I am still learning how to do Text Effects to make my videos pop, and Magic Animate alone looks like a fantastic time saver.

[@aspensplace3293]

Both of Alex’s plugins should be a good start. Fun video and presentation. Thanks dude.

Bruh. BRUH. This video was MAD helpful. I chose Davinci as my go to video editor when I began my KZbin adventure a year and a half ago. I have learned so much and it's been fun as well as challenging. This video is going to make it even more fun and level up my content in that special way that most in my niche do not do. I want to see Dustin come back and give us some more love but even if he doesn't, I'm going over to his site and check out the rest of his stuff because this was super helpful. Now, let me go make this video that is supposed to post on Friday and add some of these elements. Thanks and much love. Peace and hair grease! 👊🏿🙂

Yooooo! I'm using some of these plugins to enhance my next video! Thanks for this video guys!

[@TheGothicKratos]

I was using Shotcut for my old content, and when you zoom into the timeline even a little to try and edit at more precise points it gets real laggy real fast, and no I'm not just talking about slower playback, I mean the entire app slows to a crawl until you zoom back out, this is before you've added any plug-ins or effects (good luck using corner pin and matching it to an audio file while animating on a logo/background scene, (for example, to create a stinger transition) I used this app because I don't have a lot of money at all right now and it's also free, but after this video, it may be time to get back into recording some gameplays and seeing if Resolve runs any smoother (not looking forward to relearning how to make transitions though as Shotcut did make that extremely easy by allowing you to just overlap to cut scenes, but if I can avoid having to wait literal minutes for the app to catch up every time I do anything at all I'm all for it.)

[@thornysnotsoepic]

Resolve is awesome. It's very easy to pick up on, and there are TONS of videos on how to use a certain tool if you aren't sure. I really enjoy using it for my videos. I know there is a lot to learn in the editing space, and I give props to the people who edit videos for a living. It really is a talent. Not sure I'll use these plug-ins just yet as I am still learning Resolve, but I will definitely keep them in mind.

This video came out at the perfect time, I've been using Resolve for over 2 years for stream VODs, TikToks, and of course KZbin. I've gotten pretty quick with a lot of the editing I do in my videos, but these plugins are insane. I never even touched plugins before😂

[@Dwoalin]

This couldn't have come at a better time! My 8 year old MacBook Pro is starting to slow down so I'm using my gaming rig to edit in Davinci as of now. Also, I'm impressed with how quickly I got used to the UI in Resolve over Final Cut Pro which I don't care for as much nowadays 😬

[@PolishLynx]

Switched to DaVinci about 2 years ago. And not from Adobe. Initially was using Camtasia Studio for some unknown reasons. Don't really do any fancy stuff in it, but brute forced my way to know the basics I needed. Before definite switch was testing it alongside Adobe (obviously) and Sony Vegas and somehow was able to get the hang of it faster. Plus similar test projects actually rendered in less time. All of that + obviously being free made it an easy choice. Just can wish life could allow a little bit more time to learn some fancy stuff.

[@accidentallyproductive4182]

yeah already planning on exploring these when I wake up tomorrow. also having Dustin come in and explain the different plugins and how he uses them was extremely valuable
