How to Green Screen in Davinci Resolve 19

[@BaroneAlTavolo]

You tell us not only how, but WHY we should use a setting. Thank you!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! :)

[@nguyenphan1928]

This tutorial is one of the best about keying green screen on the internet so far, you explained about it in a very detail and specific way to utilize the fundamental skills and mindset of new users when using and dealing with the software and situations that they are having. Thanks a lot for your works so far. Appreciate !! If can I hope that you can make more about VFX with fusion and the process from start to end. Your tutorials are really helpful

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you very much 🙂

[@JAWN.]

1) the Bspline node and the 2) MediaOut2 for color grading were HUGE tips that I've been looking for for a long time and I wasn't expect you to include that in this video. Thanks for making this!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ChrisLeeProducer]

Not red Screen because it's too close to our skin tone

[@coffeebeanstudio]

You got it right ☺️

[@juanfxblender]

This have to be the best Keying tutorial for Davinci all over KZbin, thank you so much for this awesome tutorial!!!!!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Wow, thanks! :) Appreciate the support! :)

[@RKAlapana]

Really it is an excellent tutorial for a beginner like me. I have seen so many tutorials, but yours is the very explanatory with a lot of patience and narrative . Thanks

[@coffeebeanstudio]

I’m glad it helped. Cheers. 😌

[@shreyas.explains]

This is the most amazing green screen guide on KZbin for davinci resolve. You should post more. And with Miss frequency man. Don't stop.❤❤❤

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks, will do! :)

[@tobinrysenga1894]

I've watched a few of these today. This is by far the most complete!

[@snovich_117]

After months of searching, this is the only best tuto not only showing the utils but explaining their roles.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you very much! :)

[@ririlan2137]

This is the best guide for understanding the delta keyer function. Just great. :))

[@JohnMoran]

This is a perfect tutorial, no bs, well presented

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks John.

[@JonnyRecaps]

I've been using Resolve weekly on my YT channel for nearly two years now, and I'd no idea this process even existed. Brilliant tutorial 🖐️

[@coffeebeanstudio]

You're very welcome! :)

[@GIBro-mm5dj]

Hands down, THE BEST GREEN SCREEN TUTORIAL ON YT. I would love to see a follow up video on motion tracking a green screen for a moving background.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you so much 😊. I’ll make one on motion tracking soon. Cheers.

[@alexurda]

This is the best keying tutorial I’ve ever seen! I’ve been trying to find how to stop using after effects for my green screen work because it takes years to render out but I hadn’t been able to achieve a good key with Davinci resolve, that’s changed today! 👏👏👏 thank you so much!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad it helped!

[@trumphy911]

Fantastic in-depth explanation which was super clear and reasoned. This is by far the very best, definitive, explanation of green screen masking for me. Thank you.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@unihumi]

wow, you totally deserver more subs, man. The way you present and explain it, is pure masterclass!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks! 😃

[@VanStubbs80]

The absolute best green screen tutorial I've seen on here. Thank you.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad it was helpful! Thank you very much! :)

[@1thirdart]

By far the best tutorial out there!

[@opentothepublicpodcast]

your amazing the only issue I have is during your explanation of adding the background you skip to spill suppression with your background up already. I guess a lot of your viewer figured that part out but I was still never able to get my separate image to show up as my background.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks for watching. I am glad the video was helpful. Regarding the background, I thought I did mention that. It starts at 14:00. It really is just about adding the background to a merge node. If you are finding that step hard, please send me the node structure, and I'll take a look and let you know.

[@JANAHITHATV]

Explained super. One of the best chroma key green screen remover.Thanks a lot for your work.

[@stuartsimmons956]

That is freaking awesome. Perfect tutorial for what I have in mind for my video. Thanks

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you so much Stuart. I am glad it helped! :)

[@NilanjanaChatterjee-j4m]

Thank you for this. However, I'm an absolute beginner. I struggled to find the delta keyer and how you got those two screens. I feel had you mentioned it step-by-step, I wouldn't have considered switching to another video.

[@PraveenBhatt-qc1gw]

too good. Thanks

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you! :)

[@richerworldproductions]

great tutorial, lots of information, but!!! How do you change the size of the elements? I have a huge character in a small background, that doesn't fit the screen. How do you change their sizes and make it look right in the scene?

[@coffeebeanstudio]

In fusion? Or in the edit page? If it’s fusion, you’ll need to add a Transform node after the element to change the size. In the edit page you can change the scale on the inspector on the right.

[@flaviomasson]

super thoughtful and well-paced tutorial, thank you! is it normal to do the manual rotoscoping? it made a lot of sense in the context of your demo/short clip, but wouldn't that get overwhelming for longer clips? thanks!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Rotoscoping is a good skill to learn, but modern tools help simplify it. There are auto-roto tools, and the Magic mask for example which can automate the roto. I kept it basic so that it's understandable, but you'd normally want to make use of one of the other tools to help with roto.

[@orknobe]

Need a video on all the keyer nodes, Gurujii.. ❤ infact all the nodes in fusion, one by one..

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Sure 😊

[@wmmediallc]

Excellent tutorial, thank you

[@coffeebeanstudio]

You're welcome! :)

[@oo0Spyder0oo]

I was using ultra key before as I figured ‘ultra’ meant it was the best option in davinci, I saw many others using delta keyer and it’s way better, switched to this as my go to keyer now

[@coffeebeanstudio]

You are very welcome! :)

[@Klaas_H]

I am stuck already at the beginning. How do I get a before and an after clip on the same screen?

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Somewhere above the screen you'll find an icon that looks like a rectangle, or two rectangles one next to the other. THat's the button that you need to click.

[@oneshotchris5488]

if we use red screen, it's too common as it might interfere with the subject as it's a common color and it will make some parts of the subject transparent if there is red in the subject

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Bingo 😀

@@brandonwatsonmedia Yes, this is still the best way. :)

[@brandonwatsonmedia]

@@coffeebeanstudio Thank you, again!

[@robertadams3666]

Why is it that when I’m in fusion my log image still looks like log and not rec 709? Should I be doing the key work on the log or log converted to rec 709 (meaning with a node/lut on it)?

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Have you enabled colour management? No, you wouldn’t want to key on a log image. If you are still seeing a log image, add a colour space transform node in fusion (not the colour page) and complete the steps in the video after that node.

[@adeepoberoi1130]

Hi Vikram, how are you. Thanks for a very good tutorial, Well explained and direct to the point. But I ran into a situation and I am Going Crazy here . Im trying to render my DR fusion keyed (delta) project for a client. Quicktime DNxHR 12 bits keeps givine me weird renders. So does Quiktime GoPro Cineform. I would really be great if you know the solution to this. I worked 2 days on this (should have done a test render in the beginning but never expected this). In DR everything looks fine but when rendered the keyed part is like half white and keeps moving. Best Regards, Adeep Oberoi!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Is this the final export ? What does a regular H264 look like ?

[@adeepoberoi1130]

@@coffeebeanstudio Thx for your reply. H264, with hardware acceleration on its a mess, doesnt even honor the render in and out point, sometimes renders backround only, sometimes forgraound with a part white. But with hardware acceleration turned off it renders the H264 fine, even honors the in and out render point. Tried proress (without alpha) and it also does the weird alpha jittering in the render.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hmm.. Never seen something like this before. If you want to add me to your Davinci Cloud, I could take a look, but no promises that I'd be able to fix it @@adeepoberoi1130

[@elliottsin]

Amazing tutorial. Best KZbin tutorial on green screens and keying by a long shot. Thank you for the in depth approach and explaining how tools operate and why you use them. There are many creators out there that only state what tool they use but not why - either because they don't see it necessary or because they themselves don't understand the tool. You go above and beyond sir! Subscribed and look forward to viewing more of your content. Thank you

Oh thank you so much for the compliments, Elliott. I am glad you found the video useful. And thanks a lot for the coffees! :)

Wohooooo! :)

[@rolandkrischek3011]

Best green screen keying tutorial I have ever seen, and I have seen a lot 😅. I was always wondering what are those taps in the delta keyer for. Now I know it 👍😊 you didn’t explain all of them, but maybe in another tutorial 😉

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks for the compliment and thanks for watching. Yeah, the tabs I didn't go in detail into are just for further refining the mask, and not something I usually use day in day out. But yeah, it might warrant a new video later on. :)

[@empowermentrecovery]

Video is great, but don't assume that everyone knows what a delta keyer is or how you got one on the screen ---- SLOW DOWN !! Some of us who are newer to the software are finding it hard to keep up! -- so, once more -- PLEASE SLOW DOWN ..... great content though!!!

[@UnholyShade]

Why is everyone getting this but me?? This is about the 10 billionth tutorial I've watched that doesnt explain one thing or the other. I'm stuck a minute and 18 seconds in trying to figure out what you clicked to get to protect settings. I've been using Davinci for 5 years. I have had a green screen for almost a month and can't figure out how to use it. Why can everyone on the internet but me figure this out like it's nothing? Everyone says it's so easy and I cannot for the absolute life of me figure it out. I haven't felt this stupid and incompetent since I was in school.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Let me help you. What specifically are you struggling with at 1:18?

[@coffeebeanstudio]

To go to project settings you click on the gear icon on the bottom right of the screen. I’ve highlighted it in the video.

[@shreyas.explains]

Make more videos bro

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Sure thing mate! :)

[@crummudge3123]

adding the background image was not explained well

[@coffeebeanstudio]

[@creatorvoss]

what da heck is steve vai doing here ????

[@mstitt4464]

Considering you didn't explain how to even bring in a delta keyer at the very beginning of the video, the video was completely useless.

[@Hlbkomer]

Before on the right side. Whyy? :)

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Haha. I tried to make it work with the After on the right, but Superman's cape covered most of the after image and it didn't work. Hence the compromise! :)

[@neilaconfuser]

subject still does not blend with bg :(

[@empowermentrecovery]

I tried again today but my friend, you talk way, way too fast to keep up with you and you don't explain how you got each and every place you got to so for total new comers to Davinci resolve it is so hard to follow you withou replay everything! SLOW DOWN when you talk! You are talking so fast ................

[@jer3006]

Outstanding technique and explanation, thank you! But say instead of "Perfect Green Screening Keying...," I needed only "Semi-Perfect Green Screen Keying...," would Magic Mask with Tracking & a new Bkgd work fairly well? Since I would be in the Color page anyway, I could still reduce greens and yellows as a last step, like you did at 15:05, right? Sorry, I don't mean to detract from your awesome video here, and it is awesome, there is just a huge amount of knowledge required to make videos and all the options are often confusing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hi Jer. Hope you have been well. Yes, for semi perfect keying, and for simple foregrounds (like the one in this video), the magic mask would work well. But consider a shot where you have many characters moving around (like some of the examples from the movies that I showed at the start of the video), that would be very hard to achieve using just a magic mask and tracking. Ultimately with anything in postprocessing, it helps to know all the tools we have access to, so that when it comes to completing a task, we can pick the best tool for the job. :) Thanks for watching! :)

[@jer3006]

@@coffeebeanstudio Hey, great to know some differentiation between these 2 methods, thanks. You make good points and now I know what to consider when deciding on which tool to use. 👏

It's very nice but too complicated. In After Effects you just push a few settings and you're done. The end result is not that different but here you will soend 10 times more time.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

That’s not necessarily true. In resolve too you can press a button and get a green screen key. But neither the one press in AE nor in Resolve will get you production quality keys. You can get away with it for home videos.

I was following you perfectly up to minute 14:10 where you say to “merge it to the delta keyer” how do I do that?

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hi Javier. Thanks for following along. Apologies for rushing through that step. To merge with the delta keyer, you need to use a Merge Node. The inputs to the merge nodes will be the outputs of the Delta Keyer and the Footage node.

What if the subject has some green in their clothes, how do we make sure the subject doesn't turn transparent as a result?
