This is an in-depth animation tutorial on how to achieve the opening sequence from Marvel studio's show - Loki. The method is all procedural, watch till the very end to find out how to create this look all in Davinci Resolve.
I firmly believe that the best way to learn Fusion is by recreating reasonably complex projects. And this is the second video in that series. You can also find the recreation of the Netflix Animation here - • Netflix Animation Tuto...

Fave quote: "That's not quite what we want..." It is what comes next that can be a struggle so it is helpful to see how you work through those situations. This is an interesting exercise and you used some unfamiliar nodes that continue to prompt awe in just how amazing is Resolve. Thanks for presenting this and I can see some applications where maybe you apply this technique to just one letter in a title for quick emphasis.

Hi Jer! Hope you have been well! Thanks. hahahaa.. I didn't realize that I repeated that phrase that often until you mentioned it! I am glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching! :)

[@TyTheCamGuy]

fantastic watch. thank you for finding a fun way to get this effect.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks Tyler. And thanks for recommending this. I had a lot of fun trying to reproduce it. Quite a few false starts as I myself learnt that Fusion doesn't allow selection of fonts via expressions! And I also learnt that my skills with the TimeStretcher node required brushing up!!!

[@slitposting]

Trust me this channel will blow up very soon..people like me who are switching from premiere pro to davinci really need good Davinci Tutorial Channels like this... watching all ur tutorials ...thanks

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you for the appreciation, mate! Glad to have you here! :)

[@TwistedtwinT]

Great tutorial! Love the "break down & recreate an existing animation" instant subscribe!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad you liked it! :)

I will try my best

[@DavidAndersonDesign]

Very instructive! Thank you!

Thank you David! :)

[@jozef_s]

Nice tutorial! Thank you.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad it was helpful!

[@notverygoodguy]

Really nicely done again. I love your dissolve node tree. I learned two things with that. Firstly what a dissolve does and also that even knowing what a node does doesn't necessarily teach you the power it has :) As a noob I would have attempted to keyframe the fonts but this is much better and cooler!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you mate! Glad you enjoyed it. Hope you have been well! :)

[@solotaxidiotis]

You are the @mkbhd of Davinci Resolve. Your videos helps alot for new content creators like us

[@coffeebeanstudio]

You are too kind mate. Glad you liked the video. Thanks for watching! :)

[@Vynaysharma]

At 6:05 you use some script/code iif(math. random()

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hi Vinay. The language used in da Vinci resolve is called Lua. I am not sure whether a coding video will perform well on this channel but I’ll give it a shot. But if you wanna learn how to write the kind of code I wrote here, you’ll want to get familiar with basic Lua coding.

[@akshaygodara786]

Nice one, I am hoping you are working on my suggestion of transitions and have a wonderful day❤

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Ya Akshay. It's in the pipeline. The next two videos are for the Colour page, and the one after that will be the transitions one! :)

[@bsv_za]

Thanks for making the tutorial. I learned a few things. I have a question though. Wouldn't it be easier to just keyframe a font change for each of the letters and then do some kind of loop in the spline editor? I understand the letter selection wouldn't be random but I don't think it would necessarily be obvious. An alternative would be to write an expression directly on the font of the text. I see that fusion allows you to write an expression but I'm not sure where you're supposed to write it. There isn't a lot of information on KZbin about Fusion expressions. Please consider making a video about some of your favorite ones.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hi BSV. Thanks for watching and thanks for the appreciation. 1. Yeah, it would be easier to keyframe and spline the loops for the font change, but as you mentioned, I'd lose the randomness. If I didn't want the randomness, the keyframing would be the route to take. 2. You actually can't write an expression directly on the font of the text. Resolve doesn't permit that. It was one of the ways I initially tried to solve this by, but learnt that you can't do it whilst trying! :) Great minds.. ;) Cheers mate. Hope you have subscribed! :)

[@sanjeev.murukan]

Fantastic, Waiting for next videos.. Suggestion Please add particle animations..

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you Sanjeev. What particularly in particle animations are you interested in?

[@sanjeev.murukan]

@@coffeebeanstudio I have small concept, a magic stick with hat, the particles were come from the magic stick. animated I want to learn more... i have seen people are doing these kinds of animation only aftereffect. If you can help me. please

[@MaximoJoshua]

could you potentially do an example of the Modern Family intro? Its pretty interesting because it goes from still to video, transforms sizes and location, and seems overall similar to this sort of project. Just an idea, love your videos. P.S. Could you explain how this approach would vary from keyframing the actual font on four text nodes? Or I think maybe you could create a macro for a single letter and then reuse that one "random font letter" macro...I really really love how you are showing expressions, but as a programmer primarily, I just hate duplicating the same thing many times or copying and pasting settings across many nodes (DRY = Don't Repeat Yourself). This is still a totally valid approach, and I love your methodology of explaining it. Learning so much binging all your videos.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks mate. The Modern Family intro is a good idea. I'll add it to the list. Thanks for watching.

can u do the Loki Portal Effect

[@coffeebeanstudio]

I'll give it a shot! :)

[@Itsmicki8421]

i can´t finnd the multimerge is it al tool what need to instaled?

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hi Micki. The Multimerge is a part of 18.5 I think. You might have to update your Resolve version. It was released in April.

sr i request you to please make davinci fusion detail masterclass 🙏

Will try 😊

is there a reason they made it "iif" rather than just "if"?

Not sure mate :(
