No, You Don't Need After Effects.

[@DilsonAbraham]

No comments, you are a prodigy. The Andrew Kramer of FUSION. Wishing you good and want to see you and your channel grow to great heights.

[@WolfsHaven]

What the Davinci community needs is channels like Corridor Crew, Film Riot, and Cinecom doing more with Resolve/Fusion. They show a lot of great how to's but for Premiere/After Effects, I'd love see the same tricks and techniques in Davinci. If not by them, someone else.

[@ELULTIMODJ]

Corridor already switched to davinci in some workflows

[@rano12321]

Corridor doesn't use AE and Premiere anymore.

[@chnlnine]

Dude, you rock, YOU ROCK!!!!! Spread the word about Davinci!!! ... who knows where i'd be if I discovered this program years ago. I'm a sound designer who LOVES mograph and film. Resolve is a perfect combination. It's almost like it was designed just for me. Lol!

[@gabehobbs]

The more I learn Patrick, you're totally right -- except for a few key areas where Fusion still has some gaps. If you can explain how to make a dashed lined like you can in after effects without some crazy paint nodes, I would love to hear it 😅

[@andyhemphill]

Use dash's in a text field

[@SUALVI]

@@andyhemphill resourceful haha!

[@pavel.suchkov]

The amount of useful info here is insane! I wouldn't be mistaken if I say it's worth a whole 6 full lesson course. Deepest respect to you sir. Thank you for making us believe how simple it really is. Such approach will get us all started much more efficiently!

[@peterash9375]

Your new hairstyle looks as good as the turorial actually is. Carry on!

[@SNORKYMEDIA]

I find Fusion so much easier to understand than AE when I learnt that.... nodes make so much more sense to me than a huge list, most of which isnt even on the screen and doesnt show me the relationships between lines easily like nodes do...

[@AlexYazanGames]

Heard of filmora styled editing programs?

[@themcclure]

Thanks! Informative stuff - the looping I didn’t know, so that’s going to be helpful. Now if only I could loop a track in the edit view!

[@ThoBuCreator]

Patrick, thank you very much ! I watched your tutorials from the last 2 weeks after my holidays and.... I once again learned so much tips from you ! Great, thanks.

[@kire_S]

Huge thanks!! Keep on teaching us!!!

[@kneerunjun]

Thanks for your Fusion videos, Patrick! Blackmagic’s official training and documentation is amazing and pretty exhaustive, but it’s also overwhelming due to the sheer amount of information on there. It helps to have these short tool videos to bridge that gap :)

[@levantevantales]

I'm speachless... you are amazing!!!!❤❤

[@BenGleasonMedia]

You just blew my mind! 🤯

[@PeakHumanLife]

I love you, this is exactly what we need. Motion Graphics guy (especially ideally with Text) shown in Fusion. I would love to see many of those "simple" animations that Vox is doing (if you would want some examples if you read this, happy to give some, like things I tried and didn't figure out)

[@michelvincent3470]

Thanks for this video. Have a nice day.

[@HonorMacDonald]

Finally getting into Resolve, and I found your channel tonight, and watched several videos, and I'm glad I found you, and I'm subscribing, and thank you! But, as off topic as it is... Your hair looks great! I like long hair, too, but... Yeah! Congrats on some really valuable content AND that all-too-rare thing, a great haircut! :)

[@nickclarkk]

another great video, much appreciated. I am slowly leaving the adobe ecosystem after 15+ years and you have been a big help in that. The only thing I keep adobe around for currently is media encoder (watch folder / auto encode), and raw photo editing. Your tutorials have helped me a lot in closing the gap and I can't wait to learn more~!

[@Smaugthur]

Wow!!!! I always feel that animating with nodes in fusion is kind of clunky, but this gives me a new perspective

[@__-Z-_]

Would love to see a video on how to have an asset with different in and out animations that can be turned on and off via tick boxes in the edit page. Motion VFX (the company) have this on their backgrounds and titles and I would like to know how I could make my own. keep up the good work!

[@technikforlife_]

You need to create a costum control (checkbox) and connect a dissolve node via an expression with that costum control. Then you just need to connect in the background of the dissolve node, the Input without the Animation Out and in the foreground the Input with that Animation Out. I hope you can understand it 😂

[@NickSandM]

@@technikforlife_ also you can just edit controls> make new Checkbox Control> Publish Level/Blend then Connect it to that Checkbox button (most nodes have Either Level/Blend, or at worst the Merge blend), Publish is better performance than Expressions. (Unless you're wanting Advanced Iif statements)

[@SUALVI]

I think when they manage to figure out a way to create something like the bones (I'm not sure that's the correct name) in After Effects, then that will definitely 100x the opportunities for creating similar motion graphics.

[@adrien7714]

you're a genius, thank you so much

[@avdcam]

Thank you for making this. I think a lot of folk still believe Mograph = AE, but things are changing, and personally I think in the fusion is superior in many ways. The biggest thing I can't figure out is a way to do tapered strokes like after effect's taperd strokes tools. If fusion has a method I'd love to learn it.

[@TheRealBarkinMadd]

Nicely done, Patrick! Thanks.

hey Patrick , I really appreciate your videos , you teach me a lot of stuff . I would like to know if you could make a tutorial about some different effects that you can make by using the 3d camera tracker with handheld camera movements or something like that ( like integrating a 3d object on a video shot handheld or stuff like that )

[@PatrickStirling]

That's great! once you get familiar with some of the basic tools so many creative ideas start opening up 🤘

[@ThePuka]

Some people made working calculators inside minecraft using redstone. I hate AE but it's a Swiss Army knive for pixels. It's just really good software for 1999, but it does offer you a vast amount of control.

[@ChandanComputerEducation]

Please make more basic animation videos like this.

[@resolving_boris]

I don't use AE anymore and I love Fusion, but I still think keyframes in AE are so much easier. A lot of times I just want to reverse 2 feyframes and can't figure it out. Also, just selecting ease in ease out is faster than opening the Keyframe window. And moving keyframes? Don't get me srarted...

[@itssobetv]

Is After effects like Microsoft Paint? Never heard of it ;)

Hello! There’s multiple ways of doing this. You can use PNGs for the thought bubble shapes and then key frame them to show up. You can also go into Fusion and then use the background node and polygon nodes to make the thought bubble shapes on your own. Cheers!

Does Fusion have anything in the way of making particle effects for smoke/fire/explosions.

If you want to get into vfx, I'd say, you shouldn't even touch after effects lol.

[@jochenv1]

well, „ the industry“ is very much AE so it’s hard not to if you work professionally. although fusion is cool and in some parts better than AE…

[@rano12321]

@@jochenv1 What industry are you talking about? Good luck finding jobs in any VFX studio where they are using after effects for professional VFX and compositing for movies and tv shows, pretty much every studio around the world use mostly Nuke and Fusion and some are still using flame. Fusion has been around for longer than nuke and has been used over 1000 films and TV series and games, meanwhile the only people who use after effects professionally are mograph artists and freelancers, youtubers.

[@jochenv1]

@@rano12321 in germany at least the tv stations mostly have their graphics kit as AE project. and as freelance VFX and compositing artist in advertising you mostly need AE or Nuke, resolve/fusion is rare. but it might change. i am trying to use resolve for the whole workflow in my company but VFX is regularly a problem. I then use AE and render out stuff with alphachannel and go back to resolve... but coming to think of it most stuff we get delivered in AE is motion graphics, but also VFX. and i know quite a few AE freelancers who have lots of VFX work in advertising - and a lot of fusion youtube videos are also about mograph;-)

[@rano12321]

@@jochenv1 After effects is mostly popular among small studios and freelancers as I mentioned in my previous comments. Since you mentioned "the industry" that's why I said almost all the professional VFX artists working in Hollywood movies and Tv shows are using Nuke. Most big VFX studios run Linux and none of the Adobe stuff run on Linux, but nuke and Fusion does. The current popularity of Fusion has gone down in the last decade but Fusion has been around for longer than Nuke. It was used in over 1000 movies and Tv shows and Games when Nuke was only an in house tool for digital domain and when other studios were using Shake and some Flame. After Nuke became industry standard Blackmagic bought fusion but probably the biggest reason why Fusion didn't become Industry standard is because it was only supported on windows and it was the only composting software that has full GPU acceleration a decade ago. That's why I said good luck finding job in the VFX industry with after effects because none of the VFX studios who work in movies and tv shows use After effects. The people who professionally use after effects are freelancers and indie studios and motion graphics artists. And coming from after effects, Fusion is miles better for professional quality VFX, the built in tools are good enough for most job and anyone getting started in VFX, I'd highly recommend Fusion over after effects.

[@tvchris]

Text animation still sucks. Until they fix that, fusion will never touch after effects,

[@PatrickStirling]

how so? I can think of one small feature I'd love for then to change/add but in general I think it's super flexible

[@tvchris]

@@PatrickStirling in fusion you can’t animate by word or line, only by letter. I agree that it’s flexible though in that you can animate anything and have it follow.

[@PatrickStirling]

yeah that is the big thing I'd like them to add. there are some clever work-arounds that I might share soon for word-by-word animation. the basic transform option handle it alright but stuff like opacity still relies on that shading tab which runs letter-by-letter

[@rano12321]

Still a million times faster than after effects

Your thinking is too simple about the need or not for AE

[@1SubZeero]

Adobe will send assasins... :)

[@ramprasath1552]

Hey Patrick, I got a very important info for you. This could potentially help thousands of people to succesfully switch from adobe to davinci. Also if you could somehow fill this market Gap, Even adobe after effects couldn't easily fulfill this issue right now. I think you are the only one who can do this. I have asked 100s of after effects users about why they don't want to switch to fusion, All of them told me this. Most of them are working with youtubers who demand A particular type of motion graphics(this type is the most popular yet no one(including you ) made any tutorials on davinci resolve yet ;( This particular type of motion graphics is everywhere on youtube and trending and everyone want to do it and seriously everyone want to do it but no one really makes any tutorials on this. How can i show you the type of thing i'm explaining? is there any way i can contact you and send over the videos of motion graphics i'm describing? Ps: if you can make a plugin or preset for this motion graphics, People will stand in line to buy it from you. it is that trending right now. It will save Thousands of hours for creators and editors.
