[@ljayh1]

As always Great video. I'm 71 and these video lessons help keep the old gray matter lubricated. Thank again.

[@CaseyFaris]

Haha. You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@FloydVDocDeVore]

Same for this 73 year old. Love your stuff Casey!

[@mediamannaman]

Casey, this is one of the best tutorials for a beginner because you explain why. You make it make sense. You stress the importance of mastering the basics first. This is so good in so many ways. Master class!

[@XxLuvverofMusicxX]

Yes please, if you have the time, make a part 2 of this video to go over the rest of the animation. Also if you wanted to cover how you configured the different nodes that would also be great. I used the same node tree as you did, but I could not figured out how to animate the clouds background and I ended up with a static black and white image of the clouds with the ripple effect. It did not merge over the blue background, even though my node connections were exactly the same as yours.

[@sebastianalexander8993]

you didnt animate the clouds with keyframes and didnt configurate the apply mode of merge node to ''screen''

[@mahera1950]

Okay. I think I've found my fusion teacher. How do I know? Because i didn't click off at the first mention of fusion and I watched the video all the way through without feeling overwhelmed once and without feeling the need to flee a fusion video. Breaking the confusion tab down to the fusion by explaining how fusion *actually* works was my little miracle take away. When I better understand the Edit and Fairlight tab and I'm ready for Fusion, I will start that journey with this cat, clouds and blue tutorial. Heartfelt thanks Casey from a curious 73 year old youngster.

[@DepotoftheDeep-Dive]

Oooooohhhh!! Now I get it!! Thank You Casey. This is like learning a foreign language and you speak it so well.

[@CaseyFaris]

👍

[@BrokerBasil]

I'm only 69 and have been messing with Resolve for a few years now but this video really brought it back to logical Fusion basics - very helpful and I will watch again and probably multiple times. Thank you. (And yes I've used Fusion a bit but never really totally "get" the order of nodes up to now).

[@theManagementLab]

Casey is that rare guy who can explain difficult concepts and make them seem easy. Thank you! Please make the next video to show the animated cat over the water ripple. 😍

[@joraphpictures]

Wonderful. I don't even bother with the Fusion page anymore because it never made sense to me. This video simplified everything, making it as easy as cutting a video. You've just eliminated a years of frustration for me. Play do a part two

[@ioiolandamaria]

😍😍Please continue to explain the animation from the rest of the video. Thanks 🙏

[@tayinternational]

Yes we definitely need more of these simple follow along fusion videos . I watched it once but going to download the media and watch it again as I try to copy the steps.

[@joaovitorlima9952]

Absolutely beautiful, Casey! You slowing it down and going really in-depth resulted in a longer video, but it's so easy to follow along. This is a great video !

[@Soundb1te]

Fan-tas-tic tutorial! I am no longer lost and mesmerised by nodes! Thank you!

[@mellowmel2012]

Well done! I UNDERSTAND how the nodes work! This is such a powerful tool, I need to learn to harness it! More please!

[@RonNVids]

I like the repetition. Since I don't use fusion every day, it's easy to forget what I learned and then get confused when I get in the program. Thanks for the lesson reinforcement! :)

[@tag159]

Yes, make a video that finishes this clip. These little projects are so fun to do.

[@poolhub89]

Well done, thank you. & yes, I'd like to see the rest of your node tree explained. Just learning what nodes are available is a task.

[@Ron_Ventura]

Beautifully explained. And yes please show us how you did the animation.

[@ChasingTheSun1967]

Casey, you're a star. You make it look so easy. You are the reason I started using Resolve. Keep them coming dude.

[@NosaAlways]

You my friend, are amazing!

[@sharil.6382]

Yes, please continue! My Fusion abilities are improving, but I enjoy beginner content as a refresher.

[@FranzMetrixs]

Maaaaan do I like when a video has chapters... Timestamps: 00:00 - Introduction 01:31 - Setting Up Fusion Layout 03:41 - Understanding Nodes 07:01 - Node Inputs and Order 14:01 - Creating a Basic Composition 20:01 - Effects and Transformations 25:01 - Masking Techniques 30:01 - Advanced Node Compositions 37:01 - Practical Application 44:01 - Final Tips and Course Promotion Nevertheless, thanks for sharing.

[@jaybcreighton]

Thanks!

[@ReidVV]

The description of running things through in effect is the perfect way to say this is so easy to understand and quite clear great job

[@CaseyFaris]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@corsairdn2190]

Great lesson, thanks for slowing it down a little, that helps! Look forward to a part 2 to finish this??

[@Noddy656]

A really interesting video - Teach a wise man and he will become wiser - as an 80 year old I am still learning - thankyou.

[@msghazi]

Great video! I've been watching you for a while now as I've been working to start my KZbin channel. Your videos are super-helpful. Keep up the great work!

[@quentinhill6067]

You are the GOAT. I would definitely appreciate you walking through the rest of this comp!

[@abstract2756]

When i read the title, i jumped in thinking this was going to address the rasterisation issues when you scale something down, add an effect node such as blur (even if you turn the blend to 0) and scale it back up, you would have lost quality as anything other than merges or XF transforms rasterises the input Then i realised this is a channel for beginners halfway through the video lol Though it did seem like one of the better ones of that category

[@-HollywoodAtHome-]

Casey, if you can, please do an updated video of your scientific render settings! That was extremely helpful for the Resolve community

[@christophergema4645]

Yes please make the animation video! Would be greatly appreciated

[@bradenpintar]

This was a great walkthrough of the "whys" and "hows" of nodes. Thanks.

[@RichieBeaumont]

I remember your toast video which inspired me to learn fusion and this will now be used as a new reference. Thanks for your great teaching knowledge and explanations.

[@drwhave]

very useful. I sort of knew all this stuff but organising the information and defining and explaining methods set it all in the right direction.

[@garywindsor5127]

Another fab video, thanks so much. Did you do a part two?

[@raywillis5528]

As always So clear and even though I have been using Fusion this makes me realise I ran before I could walk

[@elmerghani-piano]

Thank you for your amazingly explained videos for davinci resolve, I'm a follower from Libya 🇱🇾

[@MysticCritter]

i was excited when i saw the video, but when i heard it was your voice, i was so relieved to know i was actually going to learn something

[@dwoodwoo65]

please explain the 3 lines coming out of transform2 (going to corner position, TimeSpeed1, TimeSpeed2). I assume that flow eventually creates three different layers merged one on top of another in merge2, merge3, merge4, and that these merges are all affected by everything before the 3 lines?

[@itsamandaedison]

Absolutely yes to learning more on the animation for this

[@HeikosGarage]

Please make a part 2 to this. It is very helpful. I would also love to see you talk about key frames. Thanks

[@CaseyFaris]

Yep. We have a short Keyframes course here: www.groundcontrol.film/tw-keyframe-animation-made-simple

[@oriffel]

lesson on keyframes and spline please.

[@TechNikky]

we love to watch the rest of it

[@astawi1]

Thanks a lot.....still can"t understand difference between apply modes.....normal, screen etc...could you cover that ....have a nice day

[@joemadden1381]

Great work as usual... A special Thanks for "banging on" about the basic concepts and ordering of nodes ... Very helpful.. ❤

[@夜夜x街歪]

I had a problem when I wanted to add a fade-in effect to a PNG in Fusion. The PNG is on top of a clip using a tracker, so I want the PNG to track and fade in at the same time. I don't know how to do it. Thanks for your help.

[@animewrld8908]

finally understand nodes after many videos, great explanation

[@GrahamColler]

Thanks heaps Casey. Another great tutorial. Please continue with part two as part one was super helpful.

[@8344jk]

Casey, thank you, for explaining the process and steps. Too often the vloggers just mouse click ding ding ding ding ding mouse here and there and the viewer has no ability to grasp anything. What I would like to see are ready made samples of different exercises, like a follow along workbook of sorts. Thereby teaching the user and not inundating them with mouse trails and click click clicks. Learning Fusion takes time, and quite frankly, even the BM tutorials for a beginner are hard to follow along. I for one have stayed away from Fusion for that simple fact - no one took the time to talk about and start at the beginning -like talk to me like I was a two year old golden retriever.

[@sushilcinema]

Really impressed with the way of explanation....Thank You...

[@mishsdd]

When does davinci 19 come out?

[@wileygee]

Hi Casey, Really enjoyed the way you present your explanations. I guess I will have to put in a lot more time into getting it right. But sincerely thank you for this. 👍

[@sabeelsedits]

As always, great explainer video for beginners like me. Now i feel a bit more comfortable with the ndoes! Can you make a video about the 3d nodes, specially the imageplane3d and camera3d nodes? how these nodes work? what's the difference between the functions of the transform node and imageplane3d? Thanks!

[@alexyorkshots]

Having I was trouble this with but super it's now my mind clear in! Casey thanks!

[@Realxrizvi]

“I was Having trouble with this, but now it’s super clear in my mind. Thanks Casey!”

[@enditend2]

how do I change the color of an svg logo?

[@FloydVDocDeVore]

Always learn about new node. However, the BlueBG node is not showing. I'm using 18.6. Perhaps a difference to version 19?

[@LeonCuttem]

DEFINITELY DIDNT KNOW THERE WERE PRESETS FOR FUSION LAYOUTS 😮

[@madmanorb6285]

Even if takes my life.. please contact and help us to learn more on fusion. I dont wanna be an alien with fusion.. and let me know if all you teach is available in free version Da Vinci 18.6. Bless you. Thanks ❤ loved it n more

[@KUIKMEDIA]

I must say. This is the first time I will open Fusion and actually do something.

[@CaseyFaris]

👍

[@klintk215]

Awesome video! Yes, I’d love to see some more of the inner tube cat’s adventures!!

[@tineocedric]

I want the rest of the tutorial! I love your vids!

[@impierceizfierce]

Great video but it skips at about 15:09 when you're explaining mattecontrol1

[@abirtnf]

Thank you so much Casey 🖤 your lessons and the way you explain that helps me a lot to learn fuision pretty easily!! May god bless you 🖤

[@skyking95]

Casey - this was excellent. I for one would love to see how the rest of this came together. I’ve been getting use to Fusion and this video was great and helps make sense of using Fusion. So, do another episode showing the rest of the comp.

[@jamiefenner9443]

Wow, so clear and patient! Thank-you!

[@reyvaz2951]

Thank you!!, your videos have helped me a lot to understand this application, what I find hard to understand sometimes is, why people who watch videos on YT, do not help more with giving likes to the videos, thank you very much brother. Part 2 please.

[@rgsiiiya]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make part 2+ with the full walk thru for the whole animation ! And or at least show us the settings you used on each effects node (e.g. what you changed on the brightness/contrast node, etc)

[@filiplllllll]

Dear Casey, (long time listener, first time caller), million dollar question: in the REFERENCE COMPOSITION is there a way to exclude some settings from global adjustment mode? I created some simple picture in picture comp, that I would like to quickly apply to many clips on my timeline, but I need to be able to adjust framing for each one. How would you go about this problem? Thank you for your work.

[@wildedricmedia4504]

Fab as always Casey, yes please to the 2nd part for animation, as this is the next part of my Fusion journey!

[@romainsalmon]

Nice Explanation! Would love to see you illustrate this on an animated party flyer which encompasses a real world use.

[@drohnen_foto_film]

That is so a great explaining..I like this video yes please do some more of this videos. 🙏 thank you

[@NukularPower]

would love the see the rest

[@unclejezza]

I think God sent me here ……. Either that, or the algorithm. This is something that I had to hear. I actually, now, at the end, finally, understand.

[@ReidVV]

You are awesome and so is fusion. Recently read a comment saying fusion could not use vector graphics (ai files and svg). What? What's a workaround for this. What about layered psd files. Is there a hack or workaround?

[@Docdoolit]

This was wonderful. The elementary teaching is so helpful!

[@Benzee]

Love your work and easy to understand. Thanks Mr. Miyagi

[@PaulaS-df4uy]

Thanks Casey, appreciate all of your efforts.

[@AerialEmber]

I would also be sure to let beginners know that the different in points for the nodes are not fixed. i.e. the foreground/background/mask can move position on the node.

[@tbowen12]

yes please another video! Thanks for this great content.

[@go-to-the-beach]

You’re a hero Casey! Thank you. I have a question. Usually I tend not to download Beta versions and rather wait until the official release of the new version. Seems like there are no updates to version 18 after 18.6, so is version 19 stable? If installing it, is it ok to remove version 18.6?

[@briantierney6992]

To be continued. Yes please..

[@brucepwalker]

Thanks Casey. You make things very clear

[@DennisKing]

This was fun, thanks! Watched all the way to the end. Downloaded the media. Ended up with a relatively similar floating cat. edit: Appreciated the tip about Workspace arrangement and holding shift while dragging on a node (so it inserts into the middle of a path). Very handy tips watching the process.

[@UnK1999]

Definitely do a Part 2 please 🤞

[@CypressVanDyke]

do you do one on one classes?

[@CaseyFaris]

Not at this time.

[@CypressVanDyke]

@@CaseyFaris if you ever do, let me know! im into resolve but cant find any classes that suit me right :] because i already know a lot and all the classes are for beginners. do you have any moderate to advanced classes on youtube?

[@dalstarvisuals1385]

Thanks, Casey! The light bulb is turning on!

[@MemeSandwiches]

Super helpful 😮 Thanks ❤

[@jerryada]

Awesome. You're a light in the dark.

[@VinInTheGarden]

do some more. I watched until the end

[@fortifiedfitnesscoach]

What would you suggest for editing in fusion without the color page mucking up the edits if you use node CST rather than color managed

[@CaseyFaris]

You can use a CST in fusion with the same settings to preview it!

[@audrizkamal4894]

Thanks bro, it's totally clear to me. Thanks again 👍

[@cliveagate]

Super useful. Thank you Casey 👏

[@RoboCNCnl]

very nice content !

[@TheCreatorsPlace]

Yes, do more! Thank you!

[@jer3006]

This is an important video! Thank you!

[@nitromusik9275]

You are really good at what you do

[@cheekster777]

Thanks Casey.

[@Vanom_editz]

2nd part please

[@arunramachandran3842]

Bro, When we create a 24 fps timline sequence for a movie .which have little different mixed fps clips like 60 fps ,120..etc for slowmotion.should I keep 24fps has timeline sequence or want to convert all footage to 24 fps. Does the slowmotion work great without converting the high fps footage in davinci resolve ? Bro please can you explain?

[@UnK1999]

Thank you, thank you , thank you 💯💯
