I render in place all the time when doing any FX. It is a habit I got using an Adobe Premiere - After Effects workflow as Bridge was garbage and comps would fail and sometimes not be recoverable. In adobe I rendered every effect out to Media encoder so of course I was excited when I realized I could do the same much easier right on timeline. I render them to ProRes 422 10bit .

Thanks! I’m a fan. 2 questions: - would this (jump over the title) have been easier and clearer with a magic mask on the gymnast rather than depth map? Seems much less resource intensive. - I’m trying depth map to create bokeh and the lag to cache is annoying. Any way to cash the depth map and try different blurs without recaching? Other suggestions? Thanks for the videos!

Hi Darren. I am a fairly new subscriber. I have been using Resolve for about 3 weeks now. I am still photographer and now after 2 decades going back to edit video. I. Been watching your videos non stop! You are a great teacher and it is very pleasant to listen to you. You do remind me my photography mentor. I came to this video searching on how I could better color correct long shots where exposure and color balance change constantly using keyframes. In my case what I have are drone in auto exposure and auto WB going in and out of houses with different lighting conditions. It is a mess... I tried making a a node for WB another for exposure, and try to keyframe the changes... but somehow it is being very complicated. I tried searching for an answer and could find any good video about it. Maybe you would interested in doing it? I would love to see you approach on that. I hope I was clear enough and Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge in such a pleasant way!

One question for a potential future video - when Depth Map and Magic Mask don't do the job properly, what is the most organized way to fine-tune the matte/mask by hand? I know how to do it in a clumsy way (merging in other power window nodes in the Color page), but that gets very clumsy very fast, esp. when manual painting on just a handful of frames is needed, and basic shapes don't cover it.
@JimRobinson-colors2 жыл бұрын
What a great idea, having that gymnast flip over the title. lol. I think that switching back to h.264 after is good to know, but I would never switch back. The same resource hungry delivery codec that you are switching back to, depending on the video, will add time to the final render. For me H.264 is for getting the footage to your computer on a small disk and should be transcoded to an edit codec as soon as possible and left there. If then you need to render it for a delivery then, so be it. But you kind of gave the impression that the quality would be better because it is original media.I would think that you would have to be some kind of bionic eye human to see degradation from h.264 to ProRes 422. I have tested this many times and even full screen on a calibrated display, I can't see any loss of quality. What might even sell this one even better, since you got it so close to the head and letters, is to then put a little camera shake on the letters, like he just cleared them and the air made them wobble. You know of course that I still have the 2013 Mac Pro trash can and these new effects are a no-go to even try- I ordered the new Ultra Studio about a month ago. But according to Apple, I won't see it until around August 22nd. Can't wait to be able to play with these new OFX and try some of this stuff you are demonstrating. So I have all your new video tagged to go back and watch when my new system arrives. Looking forward to it. Congrats again on the 40k - I'll still be with you here when you click that youTube odometer over a 100k - I have a feeling it won't be too long of a wait. Cheers.

Can't wait till Resolve 18 comes out of Beta so I can learn to play with this sexy new tool. However I do have a problem and I'd be most grateful if you could point me in the right direction on how to learn and research my problem. I have a 50mm Siuri Anamorphic lens which is on my GH6 that allows me to use the full sensor to capture my masterpieces. I would be most grateful if you could point me in the direction of learning how to de-squeeze the footage captured on my camera because my brain is spinning with all the conflicting advice on KZbin. I have tried to follow the advice of Tito Ferradans on his Anamorphic on a Budget channel but he makes it really hard to follow him because he keeps providing conflicting examples of the maths and my brain hurts. BTW I love the small mouse graphic when you click a left and right mouse button. Very subtle but works perfectly.

You couldn’t remove the depth map effect at that point because the text would disappear-covered by the top (now un-modified) clip. However, as I suggested separately, you could push opacity to zero on the upper clip to ensure no interference with the title.

@@martinclay7557 I’m only making my observation based on the example in front of us. If you’re compositing multiple figures for instance and had another layer with which to contend, then the needs would be different. At the same time, we all have to keep in mind that if for some reason the underlying color grade needs to change, then the depth map will often need to be recalibrated and the renders redone.

You may have a small channel, for the moment, however you are having a big influence on some of the more flamboyant KZbin channels across the pond. They no longer push and pull the Curves and add a bit of contrast before resting on their laurels and basking in adulation. They are using Colour Space Transforms and Cineon Film Log nodes, which they never mentioned until way after you first discussed such concepts. The more I watch your stuff the more I begin to grasp what is in those episodes. Fusion is still evil, and I want no part of it. 🤣

While I think it's good to explain how to animate a depth map, for this particular effect it's overkill. It would have been much easier to simply end the foreground clip all together as soon as he clears the text. Changing opacity or anything else would just be unnecessary extra processing when everything else should already be in place.
