I’m new to Resolve. This video was a true light bulb on moment. Made all the past views of complex fusion images make sense.

[@velichor]

Very easy to follow for a complete Fusion beginner, concise and clear, and a very powerful trick. Well done and thank you!

[@CaseyFaris]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ajperry82]

Every video you do is helpful!! The pace at which you speak is so perfect, I can actually follow along in real time. No more constantly playing sections over and over. Thank you so much. Old Noob!!

[@bartekwwa]

Thx Casey!. The majority of stuff I know about DVR is from your vids Ive been following since 2020. Love your content Bro!

[@rockyninja5089]

Straight to the point. Thank you.

[@JasonYadlovski]

Yeah man! Great stuff!

[@danielroujansky6420]

Thanks for the great Fusion Tracking tutorial!

[@historycommander]

You've helped me soooo much, thank you!

[@noufalkhan]

Another on point one 👌🤩

[@Lazarus007]

How is EVERY video you make so amazing?! Thanks!

[@ifell3]

Loved it 🤙

[@markovanhoudt6157]

Hooking up to the right color of the tracker input was a real eye opener. Have been struggling a lot with tracking a moving statue by a brightness/color ellipse. Now it suddenly gets together. Thanks a lot!

[@markovanhoudt6157]

It does work with text, but it does not work with a color correction with a polygon mask. Which one should be hooked up with the tracker's green input? The color correction, or the polygon mask?

[@joymondal3211]

Very helpful video thankyou brother 👌🏼

[@CaseyFaris]

My pleasure

[@8978Marty]

Casey Im loving Resolve and dumped Premier

[@SCVisualArt]

Hi Casey. Back to basics. 😁. Im learning using fusion cause of you and your time you give for us. A big thanks once more. Can you do a tutorial video how and when we can use "saver" and "loader" nodes in fusion? I ve heard they can be useful. Thanks and keep up your nice work👌

[@threelonedrones5254]

Thanks!

[@badGamr]

Very nice! You should do a series on tracking and make each lesson slightly more advanced than the previous one. For instance in this one there are no shadows crossing the road the cause the tracking to fail. You might make the next one the same idea as this one but a shot with shadows that you have to deal with. Just a thought :)

[@stehume]

I second that

[@DeejayJeanP]

Third that

[@CaseyFaris]

Great idea!

[@experiencevillas-crete8352]

That would be great. Also if there is an exposure change, due to angle change.

[@swagmag856]

This video is perfect for me, as I just finished the Fusion Survival Guide. THAT was so good, I watched it from start to finish in an afternoon! It really gave me confidence on the Fusion page. Let me know when Z2H goes back on sale. I think I'm ready for it.

[@CaseyFaris]

Ahhh yeah! You got this!!!! There's a coupon code at the end of the surv guide! Id do that if I were you!

[@NINETY-97-SEVEN]

could you make a video on when to use any of the trackers? like normal tracker, camera tracker, planar tracker. :D

[@StuartHetzler]

I'm good ok with setting up the track, but I get lost when trying to fix problems in an unsuccessful track. Would love to see a vid on that

[@asorlona4403]

Hi Casey, you are one of the best in Davinci Resolve. I am a very-very beginner senior trying to learn Davinci. This video is too advanced for me. Have you produced a KZbin tutorial in the past on how to create relaxing snow or rain with fireplace music background scenes with Davinci Resolve? Rose.

[@remskarcreative]

We want to see the advanced stuff

[@ApolloVHS]

I second this.

[@Crimsonland1]

Id track with ya any day bro, happy Friday! 🎉

[@worldstallestdrummer]

i love you!

[@daveruble5150]

Stay safe. It's gonna get chilly out here.

[@user-ge7db9hs3f]

Please sir review your setup and thanks a lot for tutorial

[@GKhan-un7py]

Are you able to export GyroData as camera tracker?

[@EchoTango]

No one is talking about bad tracks or behind objects track, fast movement tracks, etc. We need to learn what to do when it does not go as planned ! Every tutorial from youtubers is always so safe and easy... it's like they are afraid to get their hands dirty 😅

[@CaseyFaris]

Don't worry I'm not afraid... Working on this. :). Gotta do basics first tho.

[@EchoTango]

@CaseyFaris i Know casey😘 i have bought almost all of your courses and you are my biggest mentor, but you like to keep it basic here on YT 😅 i would love to get tracking where things are changing angles and so on 👍🏻 looking forward to it

[@ShotByTay]

Any classes coming up?

[@coin777]

Can you make a video how to fix fusion colors? I cant use fusion because the colors in the fusion page are drastically different than in the edit/color page.

[@CaseyFaris]

Great idea!!!

[@CGPENT]

Can we get a video on AI Backgrounds/ rooms

[@jaysonfontela5761]

👍💖

[@ThatsDebatable110]

Is this in studio or the free version?

[@noodlesmakemecum]

free

[@cliveagate]

Simple, thank you. Would the same process apply to a 360 video?

[@flightographist]

with the karta plugin maybe?

[@cliveagate]

@@flightographist thank you I’ll check it out 👍 - I have an old Insta 360 One

[@Silieth]

PLEEAASE do a tutorial on the Camera Tracker..!

[@CaseyFaris]

Great idea!

[@Jessiekim]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@SuperSkip64]

I’ve asked in so many videos and discords but never get an answer. Is there a way to track text that was created via the cut page? A text that had animated pop in and out? Like the Mr. Beast style text +. Any help would greatly appreciate 😂

[@CaseyFaris]

Well, yes and no. You can track anything as long as you can bring it into the fusion page. So I mean you can make a title, then render in place, then bring it into the fusion page for tracking

[@MrArtvideomessina]

Dearest Master. I have a question to ask you. I have a problem with Fusion. I created a composition with 2 media. The first has a magic mask and a tracker. The second is a background to put behind the magic mask. Everything works in Fusion but when I go back to the edit page all I can see is terrible, disconcerting black! Where did I go wrong?

[@MrBlockHead]

I want to turn my head into a tv. Do you think this will work?

[@CaseyFaris]

Yeah you can do that

[@engineerfrank8163]

Hi Casey! Thanks so much for your tutorials. They’re really helpful to me. My wife and I have decided to say no to 9 to 5 jobs and started KZbin. I tried other editing softwares and only fell in love with Davinchi. I want be a pro on Davinchi resolve. Give it a thumbs up if you resonate with me 😊. I am on the train to join your Fusion class. Where’s your subscribe button pleassse let me punch 🥊 it 😊

[@johnny26910]

@Casey Faris you forgot to tell us how to add motion blur! you silly goose!

[@CaseyFaris]

Oh dang, you're right! For anyone wondering, select the tracker node, then click the "motion blur" box on the far right tab in the inspector.
