[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you all so much for getting us to 2k subs. More info and references as always down in the description.

[@NathanCarterVids]

@my name is cloud soldiers 1 st classes. thank you. I really appreciate the support.

[@MaximIvaschenko]

"Display Qualifier Focus"!!! Gods, I've been missing it for my entire life! Sad that there is no similar option in LR

[@vishalzparadize]

A few things flew right over my head. But I'll be watching this video more than once.

[@ozzmanzz]

Just when I thought I was getting the hang of Resolve you’ve shown me that I still have a long way to go, but I’ll get there with your help! A big thank you for this, absolutely brilliant!!!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Awesome. Really happy to help. Tried to make this a jam packed video. Also I still feel like I have a long way to go. There's always more to learn. Thanks for the support.

[@TubeSilva]

I have watched many hours of Davinci Resolve tutorials and this is one of the most useful videos I've seen. You made every second of this tutorial count and worth watching! Well done, keep up the great work and I hope to see more material like this from you in the future!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you. I really appreciate that. The goal was to pack it as full as I could. I'm hoping to have another big video like this out in a couple months.

[@999ThingsToCook]

Your videos are ridiculously helpful!! Great Content!!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you. This one was a bit of a monster to make. Hoping to get another one like this out in a few months.

[@Hazardteam]

It's useful. Thank you Nathan!

[@jlippencott1]

This guy is AMAZING! So glad I stumbled across this. Top of the line tuts.

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thanks man! Glad you found it useful.

It s a fantastic video !! thank you very much 👍👍 did you ever made a complete course on DVR ?? (udemy for example ?) Bests regards / JF

[@wildpatagoniafilms16]

no idea why this dude is going fast like if he did. couple of coke lines... 😂 breath mate.. breath.... 😂 Trust me doesn't mean you are cooler nor better than other Ytubers if you go fast... cheers! ;D

[@MrJemabaris]

No need to use the automatic white balance tool to check RGB values. Simply right click your viewer and check "show picker RGB value" Now whenever you pick the qualifier tool (bottom left corner of the viewer) you are presented the RGB values.

[@stylestep111]

Thanks for the quality rundown!

[@PaulVoorberg]

Epic, I like these little more advanced tips. Thanks for making the video 👍

[@KZ-yu4jz]

Great video. Learned some great tips as well as some good reminders

[@SpaceGhostNZ]

OK after that first tip I'm giving you a like, that was legit and I haven't seen that elsewhere

[@ShutterlabCreative]

Right off the bat Item #10: head explosion 💥 🙏

[@NathanCarterVids]

I find myself using the Highlight modes all the time. Super useful tools for sure.

[@PaulRichards78]

Amazing Bro, many thanks

[@MacherTV]

Working with resolve for about a year or two now and watched dozens of tutorials already. I am only 4 minutes into this video and already learned so much! You are quickly becoming my favorite KZbinr when it comes to resolve tutorials. Keep up the great work!

[@hiroki958]

Thank you from Japan!!

[@JCUTMoto]

man, this is so helpful. i've been a learning a lot from your channel. I've been using DR since last year and your channel since I discovered it made me a lot better in using this software

[@NathanCarterVids]

Really happy to hear that. Thanks for the support. Lot's more to come.

[@gibariinkognito4849]

Thank you so, so much!

[@TransientMobile]

Nathan, I know this video is a little older. But I think I watched it before. Now that I'm a lot more of a power user, just wanted to say. I'm still mining gems from this even after all the additional stuff I've learned. Thank you again for sharing this knowledge you have. Well done.

[@NathanCarterVids]

That's awesome. I really love hearing that. For those 8 months or so that I made tutorials when the lock down hit Canada hard, this one was always my favorite. Glad it's been helpful on your learning journey.

[@MacherTV]

That display qualifier focus tip. Mind blown! Edit: 7:45 please don't use white backgrounds. My eyes are dying because of the brightness right now :D

[@NathanCarterVids]

Haha too bright eh? I'll make something more subtle going forward.

[@JoelPurnell]

This is probably the most useful video I’ve ever watched on Resolve. Thanks!!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you.

[@ashishjatiani3356]

Extremely helpful tutorial, thanks. please continue to make videos on topics which are not much talked about. 🙌🙌

[@NathanCarterVids]

More to come!

[@crushedrgb]

If you use dual screens you can have your cake and eat it too. You can have light box, node tree, scopes and much more right in front of you. A HUGE time saver being able to see all your controls at a glance. You can modify your desktop and save different versions of it under “Workspace”and “Layout Presets”.

[@NathanCarterVids]

I absolutely agree. I'm always a triple monitor set up, 2 GUI, 1 reference. However showcasing multiple display techniques through screen capture without it looking jumbled is a bit of a task. I guess I could just set up a camera pointing at the two monitors and proceed like that.

[@rolandsphotos]

Many thanks. It was realy helpfull for me.

[@NathanCarterVids]

Glad to hear that

[@MacherTV]

11:48 I cannot click and change the versions in the viewer. Nothing happens when I click on them. My mouse pointer stays the same. I noticed that yours changed. Any idea if I have to toggle something to use that feature?

[@NathanCarterVids]

That's odd. You don't have any other viewer tools on? Like highlight or image wipe or something? As far as I'm aware no check boxes are required to achieve this result.

[@JimRobinson-colors]

Another good one Nathan. You have done your homework. One tip to further these great tips - the Still reference wipe - when doing a match - sliding the reference across doesn't always get what you want to see - so adding to your good info there. People should know that if they have a wipe that they can go to the sizing pane ( second from the end in the middle, bottom placement ) that they can start with the input resizing ( default ) and zoom in - pan tilt etc to get what they want to match and then on the dropdown - go to Reference sizing and - again, zoom, pan, tilt etc. so that something different angles to match skin tones or anything else - they can fill the two parts of the wipe and have basically anything sitting side by side and match. The only caveat is that you have to remember to refresh the settings back to normal.

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thanks Jim. That's a great tip, however I find it doesn't work when wiping a timeline clip for me. Apparently it's a bug that has yet to be addressed for certain systems. So I left it out, but if you're able to get it to work then yes absolutely, great tip.

[@giovanischerer]

One of the best videos about the color page features Thank you for the great video

[@NathanCarterVids]

You're very welcome!

[@derrypratama3633]

you're a great colorist, and a great teacher too. I used to use the selection tool to the slightly darker parts of the images to avoid them getting desaturated and i never thought of the method you just explained. Bravo!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you!

[@mitchmedmedia5386]

Oh wow, so much good stuff. I’m only at the second tip and I need to stop and take notes. I don’t want to miss anything. Thanks!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Awesome. Happy to help

[@zdnvck]

Great!

[@adsmithtx]

what a great video.... perfect as a reference !!!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@deborahdeamorim8889]

Wow! So much new stuff that I just was made aware of! WooHoo!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Awesome. Really happy you liked it.

[@machelvin]

Thanks for the very first tip. You are a life saver..

[@NathanCarterVids]

No worries. Highlight modes can be super helpful for sure

[@shiddd]

you can easily get 100k

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you. I appreciate the confidence booster

[@akcivan]

You are very good teacher bro, thanks you to have in youtube

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thanks. Glad you found it helpful

[@BassCage]

Thank you 😁 you videos are great

[@NathanCarterVids]

No worries. Lots more to come

[@ErikvanElven]

Thanks! So much good and new info here.

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you. Lots of research went into this one.

[@curtdp]

Nice tricks, thank you!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Glad you like them!

[@SimonAndersonphotography]

How do you even remember all this information *mind blown* Awesome video, thank you 🙏🏻

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you. I always try read through the manual about a particular topic a few times before I record just to make sure I don't forget anything. I've left the reference links in the description if you wanna check it out.

[@SimonAndersonphotography]

@@NathanCarterVids Thank you and love your commitment to what you love :-)

[@rossmpostpro]

I have never used lightbox, hmmm. Will take a look on my next project! Thanks Nathan

[@rossmpostpro]

Oh one more thing... I have way too many questions at the moment, so thanks for your patience haha! The chart you mentioned for exposure, I was talking to a friend and couldn't remember the name? Thanks

[@NathanCarterVids]

Hmm it's been so long since I watched that video. Do you have a timestamp? I can't remember specifically what I would have been talking about.

[@stylenaalsingh702]

Hey could you plz. Help me i have bought a high specs laptop video editing and i am using davinci but i face a hanging issues for playback and fusion tab and edit tab could you please tell how can i solve that problem

[@NathanCarterVids]

Great questions. What are your specs? And what types of things are you trying to do, what kind of workflow are you using, and finally what files are you working with? Once I have that I may be able to give you some tips.

[@stylenaalsingh702]

Nathan Carter well basically i have i7 9th gen Intel processor 16gb ram 1tb storage And i shoot almost all of my videos in iphone xs max 4k 60fps settings And i edit music music videos short films and music videos with that but i get so much of truoble while i want to see the smooth playback but the hang issues is like uuhhhh

[@NathanCarterVids]

Gotcha, so the thing with Resolve is that it's actually fairly GPU intensive (unlike Premiere Pro which is CPU intensive). I can see that having issues on a 4k 60p timeline. Have you considered generating optimized media for the editing process? Could be easier on your machine than the (probably) H264 codec coming directly out of the iPhone. You could also work on an HD Timeline, then change project settings back to 4K before export. With fusion the recommended requirement for Ram is 32GB so I would imagine that wouldn't go super well. There are EgPU's that I've seen people use when working on a laptop. It's basically a desktop quality GPU that plugs in externally to a laptop though I've never used one so I can't speak directly to any improvements you may see. I hope some of that helps.

[@stylenaalsingh702]

Nathan Carter oh thanku so much for your help this i will apply on my workflow and yeah i use omtimized media for my editing And yeah once again thanku 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤝🤝

[@micemincer]

Fantastic!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Glad you liked it

[@haroldmorganTulsa]

Best Feature ever!

[@NathanCarterVids]

There's some great stuff in there for sure

[@TrueEssencePhotography]

YESSS!!! This helped so much, definitely subscribing!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Awesome. Thank for the sub. More to come

[@dominic-ryan]

So many Resolve channels take the approach of offering very specific solutions to particular issues. I'm a classic example of the result of this in that I have islands if knowledge that I stick together in some sort of unholy union to form a very poor workflow. On this channel I feel like I'm finally actually learning to use Resolve in a holistic way. Well done!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you. That something I'm really trying to move towards. I've always thought understanding how something works is usually gonna do you more good than just being able to do it one specific way, because if you need to make adjustments then you're prepared to adapt to fit the situation.

[@secretreleases]

THE BEST Resolve content, hands down! So glad I came across your channel!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you. I really appreciate the support. Lots more to come

[@SpaceMuisGaming]

off topic question - How do you do the counting digits up to 2000 ( starting at 0:08)?

[@NathanCarterVids]

Haha I was hoping no one would ask how I did that cause it was super jank. I'm sure there's a better way, but I made a text plus node in fusion, and went into modifiers. I then set the mode to timer and only enabled the seconds and then keyframed the minutes and seconds to hit the desired number. If i wasn't rushing I probably could have figured something more elegant out, but this worked for the moment.

[@SpaceMuisGaming]

@@NathanCarterVids Would you mind making a tutorial video on how to do that, so we can see your workings?

[@NathanCarterVids]

Ideally I'd like a better system that's a little more adjustable if I were to teach it, but I'll see what I can do.

[@SpaceMuisGaming]

Hey Nathan, it's been a while. Any luck with that tutorial as discussed?

[@MrBowmanMakes]

absolute gold tips for beginners like myself! Thank you Nathan!!

[@NathanCarterVids]

No worries. Really tried to pack it full of things I found helpful

[@svnairr16]

OMG where has this video been all my life? this is a life saver! Question - Is it mandatory to always park the lift and gain between the limits of the parade? Or we can go beyond if the image asks?

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank, great question. So the limits on the parade show the levels that you can display. If you go beyond those bound then you're clipping. I wouldn't say it's ideal, but you can do it, sometimes you need to crush the blacks or really blow out the sky or a window just depend on the shot you're working with.

[@RossDauk]

Your specific, detailed tips are invaluable. Thanks!

[@NathanCarterVids]

Thank you. I really tried to pack it full of stuff.

[@nnslife]

As a developer, I find Davinci Resolve not flexible enough, and multiple groups make total sense - noise reduction is perfect example: I want the same noise reduction on most clips, but I want to color correct independently. It's also a bummer that versions don't work with groups. This basically makes them useless for me:(

[@NathanCarterVids]

You can color correct independently on the clip node graph of a grouped clip. The version incompatibility with groups I find a little frustrating though. My work around has been using a still of the post clip graph (or per clip) as a version substitute, but then you have to manage your gallery and pull up the still you're looking for instead of just pressing ctrl b. I hoping for a better solution in the future.

[@aghist2154]

Another example that show me how clever I was when i subscribed to your channel months ago. I wish you to reach millions of subs because you deserve them. It was all very informative. Thank you again.

[@NathanCarterVids]

Oh thank you. I really appreciate the support. More to come

[@ValdezJu]

Yes, very true but I'm going to enjoy him as he is now before he hits the BIG TIME. How many times have you subscribed to a channel that was just beginning and before you knew what was happening, the guy is wearing makeup, has spiked, dyed hair and you don't know him anymore (and he doesn't know you)?

[@downhilldick]

Display Qualifier Focus - legend! Thanks for making this tips video

[@NathanCarterVids]

I know right. So useful. I have it always turned on.
