BRAND NEW Split Screens & Video Collages In Davinci Resolve 17!

[@SoCS]

Best Davinci tutorial I've seen in ages. Had to subscribe!! Thanks

[@alexsawyer7313]

FINALLY! So many other videos have use the video collage and copied the plugin to every single clip on the timeline. This would be fine for maybe 2-4 videos, but if you're doing a virtual choir or something else with 30-40 clips, this would take forever, be wildly inefficient, and make resizing and cropping insanely more difficult. Thank so much for this!

[@tomaszbejnarowicz]

You speaking so calm its so nice to listening keep going with those tutorials, soo good!

[@WassimJelassi]

Clear instructions, calm voice, straight to the point. THANK YOU

[@jeremymullins1294]

Your tutorial style is great! Clear and concise? Yes. Getting to the point within 25 seconds?? Yes!! You sir, have my subscription!

[@SteveRussellJuggler]

There is an alternate way of applying this. Bring in your clips. Apply the collage to the top one. Set the tiles where you want them. Right click the clip. Copy. Click on the second clip. Right click. Paste attributes. Make sure the box for Plugins is ticked. Click Apply. Click on the Effects tab. Create Tile. Manage Tiles - Tile 1. Continue for remaining clips. You could select all remaining clips at once to paste attributes to all at the same time. Then, you would Create Tile for each individual track. No need to resize or crop. It would also allow the tiles to fly in with the footage applied, rather than just revealing the footage in place.

[@BouncingDande]

@Jeremiah Landry exactly.. we dont care.

[@SteveMartinUSA]

The problem I've encountered with the paste attributes approach, as Mr. Alex Tech illustrates in another video, is when you want to change something like the animation. You have to go to every tile, click effects, expand Animations, and make the changes. If you have a large number of images to display in your collage (40+ images) then this gets very tiring. The downside to the approach in this video is the resize/crop, or if want a pan and zoom on the images that are being displayed. Those all get resized as the playhead moves and it gets to be a pain to keep sizing and positioning the image appropriately. So both strategies have their drawbacks.

[@SteveMartinUSA]

I really appreciate this considerate discussion. I've watched others, including Mr. Alex Tech, but they just get straight to the ABCs and leave out things like all of the extra work that's required if you use "Tile" instead of "Background", or the short comparison with DVE that you did at the end. One thing that's kind of missing, though, is how to stylishly reuse this collage for say 40 pictures, two at a time, or considerations for Dynamic Zoom (like Pan and Zoom)... Great video Branden.

[@tyik]

Well explained. Excellent tutorial. Thank you so much.

[@bnk48analyzer82]

This is AMAZING,salute from Thailand.

[@MsAndreaskastrup]

Wow really cool! Thanks for this!

[@ExposureEdge]

Exactly what I was looking for, very clearly explained, thanks!

[@jrondeau8430]

The best explanation of how the Video Collage works that I have seen. Thanks very much!

[@michaelsflutecorner3839]

Awesome, wouldn't have found these functionsby myself. I am just working on a concert shot with 5 cameras. I will use these features instead of only using Multicam editing. Thanks.

[@Behind2Pallets]

I'm not sure you mentioned it but one of the main reasons to use the 2nd method is all the videos move with the masks. In your first method while it is easier it is only really good for certain transitions. Like at 11:00 when the fly in happens the tiled videos are not flying in they are just stationary underneath. Yet in the 2nd method at 15:56 you can see how the video fly's in properly. So ultimately the workflow to use depends on what animation if any you will be doing. Great video thanks!

[@dougdina]

HOLY COW, I JUST LEARNED A TON. I greatly appreciate your patience and attention to detail. (I think you spend too much time in front of you PC … hahaha!!) Big big thank you for creating such a content-rich tutorial.

[@dougdina]

I tried DVE and love love love it. HOWEVER …. the order of clips in the timeline dictates the z order, as in track 1 overlaps track 2. So, I don’t know how you would make a composition whereby 2 frames would dance about the screen constantly overlapping each other. That seems very complex, to me. You’d have to at least have key framing control of the z-order so as to push one in front of the other. Crazy thought. 😮

[@shanapatterson5014]

You are so good at explaining things. Thank you for that! So helpful!

[@notabenecreativestudio352]

I so much enjoyed your video; I forgot how to do it right, as did it couple months ago, then I got stuck trying to fix those individual tiles; definitely, background feature is the best.

[@photovisionproject]

By viewing your video I had the same positive experience as the other viewers! Very good content! Many thanks!

[@StewartWhite]

This was very helpful. I'm trying to figure out some efficient ways to start editing interview videos for a podcast, and knowing that I can automate some of this, and not have to reinvent the wheel every single time is very helpful. Thank you!

[@AardvarkHill]

Tile method is perfect for larger layouts like Virtual Choirs or Bands. You set up the main look and number of grids, then copy the FX settings to all your other clips so they have the same layout and look... then you set each one to the correct tile with a couple clicks. It's much faster than doing these sorts of things by hand for each clip.

[@ARNABOSS]

marvelous!!!! thanks for your smooth explanation as well!!! now i can make screen recording with a round webcam overlay easily THANKS A LOT!!!

[@kingtungstenworldwide4472]

Thanks for the easy to follow style! SUBSCRIBED!

[@BrandenArc]

Thank you!

[@braxis2]

Thank you Branden. This is all new to me. I downloaded the Davinci tutorial but the lessons were set up for version 16 and I have 17. I wanted to use davinci to create a collage video of my band "The Chicago Project" and we have 9 members. So it's all a lot of work and I couldn't find a clear and simple explanation of how to go about doing this untill I came upon your video. So once again thank you for the time and effort you put into explaining how all this works.

[@BrandenArc]

No problem Brian! I'm really glad I could help.

[@Aurosspenjy]

Thanks man! You know, you can grab and edit the transform with mouse, saving time :)

[@christophspeck6710]

well explained - thank you

[@moviekidtechlife]

Amazing video this is exactly what I need for an upcoming project such a time saver

[@arsh0603]

That great my brother, keep them coming haha love the new v17.

[@mdttv6967]

My G, very useful! Cheers Big Man!

[@jburch5752]

I'm addicted to your videos.

[@cleanwithcharm]

Great video, well explained and I am definitely going to try this out on my latest video. 😊

[@9531843]

Great video - was worth staying to the end.

[@jhelton1233]

Thanks for this video!!! I'm looking forward to using this in my next project. ---> The TILES method flys in the clip, not just the mask, so it is now usable.. It also avoids having to crop every clip. --> Subscribed!!

[@MartinCooney1]

nice one, Branden and thanks for putting in the time and effort to explain. I can see how both workflows have pros and cons as well as DVE.

[@michaelaquitania3451]

Very cool brother...You can also use tiles as fusion as well. Make them Star, Triangle, Oval etc. etc.

[@kemal_hoca1490]

hi i m from Turkey. i learn this from you thanks..

[@RhythmRebel]

Very clear and concise. Thanks bro!

[@happinessninja6678]

Thank you for this neat trick! You´ve gained my subscription!

[@fredschenk_VVD]

The tile option is great, since it makes the animations work like they should! Unlike the first way of working shown.

[@03maxspeed]

Great job 👍...I have learned a great deal of knowledge from this video. It's super informative and very thorough... Love it!

[@TimetoTalkwithYevgen]

Thank you very much for teaching! You are very clear!

[@CharlieDIYte]

Thanks Branden. Just what I was looking for 👍

[@sammaseya]

thank you sir you know how to help. We will like and subscribe

[@joeymascarenhas6749]

Amazing, thanx Branden for another gr8 tutorial, peace

[@jean-david-ouellette]

Man I'm glad they're doing stuff like this now. Awesome Tutorial! Now if they could just allow custom UI layouts...

[@Dalife]

Outstanding. Easy to follow. More please.

[@qairylite101]

good video bro just come acros your video always wondering how to create a split screen just started using davinci resolve 19 it works fine

[@billyyoung234]

Absolutely Brilliant Branden, Just discovered you a couple of days ago, and was very impressed by your enthusiasm, One effect I'd love your thoughts on, is a Page Curl effect which is customisable, from corners and edges, I've asked other KZbin Tutorialists in the past, but it seems to be not easy, Maybe consider this as a challenge ! If not, I will look forward to your next tutorials regardless. Thanks Again for helping us mere mortals trying to learn DVR17 and earlier

[@BrandenArc]

Challenge Accepted

[@bopon20371]

Hi Branden, from Indonesia, thank you for this video.

[@escaarmadio1181]

Amazing vid 👏🏻👍🏻

[@sidewalkcinema]

Fantastic capabilities - very well explained. Thanks Brandon. Subscribing to learn more. I'm getting rid of Premiere and moving all my work over to DR17 when it is finally released.

[@byway49]

the best tutorial ever.

Hi, absolut Perfect 👍 thanks and greeting from Berlin in 🇩🇪

[@EspenJohan]

Thanks, really good video. You got a new subscriber from Norway🇧🇻

[@BrandenArc]

Norway that's incredible!!

[@tji7046]

Thanks for the help! Is there a way to move the tile to the edge of the screen?

[@yevulim]

very helpful, thank you so much

[@terminatorextended8766]

I have subscribed as you are giving all imp info- God bless you man

[@BrandenArc]

Thank you my friend! God bless you too!

[@FeldiArts]

The tile creating option is pretty good for picture in picture so I wouldn't call it counterintuitive but more useful for single video overlays.

[@terryjstudios]

Excellent Video

[@nevencuca1680]

I've put this video up in my bookmarks bar, so basically every time I need KZbin I use it as a shortcut. The amount of ad revenue might not be big, because I'm from the low value shitty country, but still, it's regular :) Thank you for such an amazing piece of content you made.

[@claudinchenchen]

Very good new effects, and easy to use! Also seems to be very time-saving if you need such effects often.

[@castielvargastv7931]

Great video!

[@ryanbuzzetti6025]

great instructions, thank you!

[@shorerocks]

With a soothing voice like this you could be explaining cooking to me. Not that I like cooking...

Great feature, great explanation!

[@ampmmbe1590]

Always excellent content

[@WanderingMonk]

Thanks for the video brother. Please share the render settings for the collage, when I am exporting the output is pretty random.

[@TKGZONE]

thats sick, do you know once u made a video collage with custom keyframes and adjustments how would you go about saving as a template in a power bin so u don't have to do it again all the time?

[@michaelbowyer5222]

This is where I’m missing FCP’s drop zone type effects. I had a great plugin that was very customizable for split screens for FCP. I’m cutting a performance with lots of split screen overlays and found that downloading pre-made overlays or the video collage plugin just isn’t as good as making my own mattes in Fusion. I’d don’t really think it’s that much more work because I make exactly what I need without fiddling with settings.

[@tangomechanic]

Great video, thanks. For some reason only one tile works for me. The second one is black. I have two columns only and want to show two still images. There must be a bug. When I disable the upper image (left side), only then the lower one show up on the right. Not sure how to cure it.

[@jessicayanjin]

Thank you !!!

[@stankogradev8766]

Hey, I do use a lot the DVE, which I find more handy than the video collage, but the videos get extremely slow. Do you have any advice for this? Thanks!

[@pirol0815]

If videos like at 17:26 stand diagonally side by side in perspective would be a great representation! Can you show that? you‘re welcome 🙏 greeting from Berlin in 🇩🇪

[@geodude9537]

All that is great but i stick to the old way just insert them with these dimensions (4 Videos) i like for them to cover the full screen video#1 zoom .5, position x -480, y 270 video#2 zoom .5, position x 480, y 270 video#3 zoom .5, position x -480, y -270 video#4 zoom .5, position x -480, y 270

[@Brandon4Weiss]

man, I just finished watching this whole awesome video, then went into Resolve, and "Video Collage" is nowhere to be seen in Resolve 18. Did they get rid of it?? It's exactly the thing I'm needing for my current project.

[@montrymanuel]

The BEST :) THANKS A LOT

[@25stuchin]

fine!

[@UAV_61]

What to do If I want to make animation for clip in the upper left position t go to full screen, sir ? Thank you.

[@W5MHG]

Love the video, thank you. Question: I have Resolve 16 with projects. If I upgrade to 17, will I lose my projects?

[@hemangtraveling2868]

Hii, i am new to davinci can i know how to make three split layer video in horizontal and vertical layers

[@firelordOzai3]

Thought you were gonna recreate the split screen you have on your thumbnail

[@Droneswayup]

Thank you for the video. Super super helpful.

[@BrandenArc]

You're very welcome!

[@Maremare680]

Can someone tell me how I place videos UNDER the main video. I can seen to get it right. It goes to the top instead of the bottom. Thanks

[@tirdad59]

God bless you

[@ntvbarcelona800]

That was already there folks... duplicate track, crop, keep in place, LUT or grade, apply seasoning and fx, animate it, serve shaken, not stirred.

[@nogi7028]

How do you make it diagonal?

[@mikaellamanuel5293]

Is it possible if you want to put 7 tiles?

[@azuresky1036]

this doesn't appear in my FX list. Is this only in the paid version, or is it available in the free edition?

Double check that you have the newest version (17)

hey Branden! maybe this effect is only available in the studio version? My effects are ending with fussion effects-video camera. Any ideas? UPDATE.......never mind my sillyness, i just found it under effects, open Fx

I believe you need to look for it in the OpenFX Category and not the Fusion Effects Catorgory
