Composite Modes explained | DaVinci Resolve 18

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hope this video was helpful to you! I intentionally didn’t cover the „new“ composite mode because MrAlexTech did a great video explaining them! If you are interested in them as well - check out his video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iIDLpKpnhrB-bsk

Ich benutze schon sehr lange nur noch LINUX, daher ist es mir ein Anliegen, unseres Wissen zu teilen. ( Habe jetzt auch einen MAC. :-) ) Ich selbst kann das auch in meinem Hobby, dem Segelfliegen, tun.

bro ty for this tutorial but for the first 1 minute i was trying to get whatever was in your nose off my screen

[@DFD1]

You made the composite modes much less confusing by grouping them by similar characteristics. I guess we all need to experiment a bit to find the one that works best with the footage we got. Screen composite is usualy the good starting point.

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey Dawid! Thank you so much - I appreciate that! Yes- the grouping is just to bring you in the ‚ballpark‘ and from there you can play around with the ones you might need!🙏🏽

[@Tony-Stockport]

Great video explaining something I didn't understand. Now I think I get it. The grouping was the clincher for me. Thank you!

Vielen Dank für die gute Erklärung ! Als Anfänger mit Davinci Resolve habe ich genau sowas gesucht.

Excellent as always man - great job at making composite modes less scary 🤣 Great video brother 🤜💥🤛

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Thank you so much Gary! Really hope it was informative and helpful - I am also working on a pdf document, going deeper into each of these modes - that was supposed to come along with this video, unfortunately I couldn’t finish it on time (It is far from being finished lol 😂) but due to me an Lena moving (again 🙄) we have to focus on the move right now!😁 Always appreciate your kind words and support brother!!👊🏽

[@nadineappletini]

Wow, das Video ist richtig gut geworden! Cooler Stil und natürlich super erklärt. Weiter so! 👏👏Happy Weekend!

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Vielen Dank Nadine! Das freut mich sehr zu hören!:) Ich finde es teilweise auch besser, die Videos eher so aufzubauen- ist zwar mehr Arbeit, aber ich persönlich finds dann auch besser 😁 muss nurnoch ne Lösung finden für die Videos, bei denen mehr Screen Recording notwendig ist 😄 Nochmals vielen Dank für die lieben Worte! Ich wünsche dir ebenfalls ein schönes Wochenende!:)🙌🏽

[@nadineappletini]

@@SebastianFriedrichVisuals Sehr gerne! Ich weiss so ca, wieviel Arbeit da drin steckt und das darf man dann gerne mal "laut" wertschätzen. 😊 Zum Thema screen recording: kennst du die Software OBS? Gibts auch ein paar Tutorials dazu. Vielleicht ist das eine Option für Deinen Workflow. 💡🙂

[@KarelZweefvlieger]

danke, schones wochenende!

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Gerne! Ebenfalls ein schönes Wochenende!:)

Thank you!! :)

[@redumbrella4218]

thank you so much! very helpful! which interface you prefer to composite?

[@jamesmcconnon2]

Hiya, so I was wondering, I am wanting to composite writing from my iPad, onto another video, using Final Cut Pro. They used a black background and white writing, then composited it on top with the overlay blend mode, and it removed the black and left the white writing. Any idea which mode would achieve this please?

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey! So what’s the thing you want to achieve now? If you want to get rid of the black background- use „screen“. If you want to cut out the white writing, use „multiply“

[@jamesmcconnon2]

@@SebastianFriedrichVisuals Thankyou. I ended up going through a bunch of the composite modes and ended up on "add" . This removed the black background perfectly.

[@FutureAI_News]

If i chose an Luma Composite mode an an Foreground layer. Its not posible to fade in any of this Layer an Opacity also not working. Can you or someone explane this ?

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey Niko! Not sure if I got your question right but so assume you are trying to fade in the different luminance values (i.e. bright to dark)? If this is the case you are better of using the luma keyer in the fusion page

[@FutureAI_News]

@@SebastianFriedrichVisuals for example I want use a black white video as a luma for another video layer. And I want to fade in the luma or the another video. I not work. I got to go to the colour page or to fusion to do the opacity animation. It’s looks like a big for me.

[@MaximoEnglish]

Which cathegory is the add mode?

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

It has a very similar effect than the screen blend mode - the lighten group!:)

[@MaximoEnglish]

@@SebastianFriedrichVisuals thanks. bro

Which computer do you use for editing??

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

Hey! I use an M1 Pro MacBook Pro with 32GB ram and 500GB SSD!:)

[@adityachaudhary554]

@@SebastianFriedrichVisuals do you think m2 mac mini, 24 gb ram would be enough for 4k video editing. Or i should go with custom pc build??

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

@@adityachaudhary554 absolutely- if you are just doing simple editing without heavy color grades and effects, you could even go with the m1 Mac mini - but if the budget allows to go for the m2, then definitely do that!:)

[@adityachaudhary554]

@@SebastianFriedrichVisuals i want to do fusion composition .

[@SebastianFriedrichVisuals]

@@adityachaudhary554 you can go with the m2 then - you won’t be disappointed!:)
