The BEST Masking Tutorial for Davinci Resolve 19

[@BackroadExploits]

You Sir are an excellent instructor and I suspect your channel will take off! The pace at which you present information is very much appreciated by this new user. You give people enough to time to comprehend what your are saying it, while doing it. I will be back for more content for sure as this video alone has been very helpful. Seeing examples of the power of this program opens up ideas for creativity. Thank you.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks a lot for your kind words. I believe in a slower pace of teaching as I believe understanding something and taking the ideas and making something else out of it is the essence of learning. If I went faster, the audience would know how to do that one thing, but might struggle to expand on the concepts on their own. What you've said is music to my ears. Thanks for stopping by and watching! I sincerely appreciate your feedback! :)

[@draganbaralic]

​just make more video for dr18

[@suffixion_6286]

I have never listened to such a clear breakdown and a step by step explanation before. No loud music in background, no fancy transitions, just clear and straight to the point. Thank you so much. I learned a lot

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you very much. I'm glad it was useful! :)

[@marc3793]

I like that you dig into the properties of how the features work in more detail. Makes you actually create something usable at the end of following along. A lot of videos just say this is broadly working but you can tweak it, without telling you how to tweak it.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks for the encouragement, Marc! :)

[@morxvincit]

no one could have explained it better and in so simple terms... faboulous video and learnt a lot sir... thank you for your efforts and keep up the great work you are doing.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Ah, you are too kind, mate! :) Thank you very much for watching and leaving your feedback. Very much appreciated! :)

[@davesworkshop2462]

You communication skills are superb. Many Instructors go way too fast so you lose the thread of the tutorial. Hope you continue with more videos

[@TheDailyDriver]

thanks so much for these tutorials. You're becoming my main guy for learning everything DR. Just picked up a speed editor and micro panel to step things up.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Your main guy for DR - wow, that's amazing praise!. Thanks a lot mate! :) Oh, two new toys to play with.. I'm jealous! Let me know how the speed editor and micropanels work for you. Keen to know! :) and thanks for watching! :)

[@Bdiers]

I really appreciate this slower, more complete approach! I know KZbin usually pushes people to condense their instruction into a shorter video, but that's not always the best way to teach. Thank you for taking your time with this, I feel like I understand the principles much better!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks Bryan. Yes, I absolutely agree that when teaching taking your time is important. But what you say about KZbin pushing out faster paced videos is very true and I am trying to find the best mix of providing value whilst still pleasing the KZbin algo! :)

[@aerofliteimagesnproduction1804]

I have been doing this for quite some time... You sir are a very great instructor... even with the things i know you help me to understand, which i feel is ohh so important.. Please keep up the good work, Thank you

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks for your kind words! I appreciate the support and feedback! :)

[@brandonharper3060]

I've used masks in so many different programs and have seen so many different tutorials for them used in different contexts. This was by far the best analogy I've ever seen lol

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Haha.. Thank you Brandon! :)

[@rightOrWrongMyCountry]

My eyes are swimming from davinci resolve tutorials, but yours is so good!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hahaha. Hopefully you’ll get to the shore soon. ☺️

[@AimBullsEye]

I never found your videos in the search. But today while looking for some important task. I came across your video. I felt your teaching is simply very effective and easy to understand. Please continue this work. It will help new creators like me. Thank you so much

[@coffeebeanstudio]

It's my pleasure! Glad it was helpful! :)

[@Ron_Ventura]

I came across your channel today. You explain things so clearly. Other channels have covered the same material, but they race through it so fast I can’t take it in. You don’t seem to assume anything about my level of knowledge. This is great for a noob like me. I’ve subscribed. Thanks.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks you for your encouragement, Ron! :) Appreciate you watching and leaving your feedback. :)

[@mrkumaran]

Excellent tutorial once again. Thank you for showing how the depth map works.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks for watching, Kumaran! :)

[@commando9321]

Greatly summed up keep making the videos as there are very less people educating the davinci you are on of my go to guys when it comes to learn davinci yes the pace of the tutorial is lovely.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hey Commando! Thanks for your kind words, and thanks for stopping by. I'll strive to keep making them. Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@favasmanikkoth4486]

big big thanks sir..its very easy to grasp and practice.waiting for yours next vdo.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks for your kind words Favas! :)

[@jimintaos]

Thank you. Your pacing is a perfect match to my understanding what you are teaching. After watching a gazillion DR videos this is the first one that helps me really get it.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad it helped. Thank you! :)

[@puddytat62]

Some people are just naturally born teachers. For newbies or pros this kind of instruction works well

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks for your encouragement, Michael 😀

[@Captain5mmhook]

I have watched 20 videos on masking and this is the ONLY ONE that explained it all nicely. thank you so much!

[@MauriceChilds]

I found your presentation exceptionally good - so many of these videos jump in with little or no explanation of what is being done, you make it much more achievable

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Awesome, thank you! :)

[@MakerMods]

You are by far the best resolve instructor on KZbin. Thanks for this!!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Wow, thanks! Thanks for watching 😀

[@mastixmastix]

You are an amazing teacher. Calm and step by step building the effect. This is how it should be done and I hope we will see many more tutorials from you.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment! :)

[@chasing-liberty]

I like the no nonsense approach and clearly stating what each item stands for, great job.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad you liked it!

[@irvdonaldson4137]

I appreciate your video and the way you transfer knowledge. Your building block approach insures a comprehensive way to understand. Thanks you so much and I will eagerly search your site for more areas you cover.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

I appreciate that! Thank you! :)

[@sunilrattan1856]

Thank you. Finally i have found someone who knows the subject and knows how to communicate. Best wishes.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad it was helpful!

[@burcgurel9575]

You are the best instructor ever! The best video of a guide in Davinci Resolve for a decade!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the praise! :)

[@CourtneyVisser]

You are SO good at teaching. This is the second video of yours I’ve watched and they’re so easy to follow, thank you!

[@ravinamore8717]

I just wanted to express my deep gratitude for your incredible channel! Your detailed explanations of the science behind each tool and setting, as well as the clear rationale for every technique, have been game-changers for me. Thanks to your guidance, I now understand not just how to use the tools, but why each choice matters in achieving the final goal.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you so much. I’m glad these videos have been helpful for you. 😀

[@MichaelNorrisThame]

An amazing tutorial. Very clear, informative, engaging and so practical and useful.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you Michael! :)

[@KUIKMEDIA]

I just love people who just teach. Just getting to the point. That's what we need. definitely subscribing to this. 💯💯

[@notverygoodguy]

Very nicely done. Good. clear and well paced tutorial. Also very impressed that you have a light on your own video inlay that doesn't blow out the image :)

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hey.. Thank you very much. I'm glad you liked it. I realized that the Netflix video was too fast like you mentioned last time, and I went back to slowing things down and spending more time on explaining. Hopefully I find the correct rhythm. And yeah, the lights at the back is of very low wattage, so I guess that helps! :)

[@notverygoodguy]

@@coffeebeanstudio It is a nicely balanced video. I already know use the tools mentioned but still found the video interesting. Seeing the approach to them from someone who actually knows what they are doing is very useful.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks mate!!! :)

[@skylergreene]

Thank you for being so intuitive, patient, and thorough. You help make learning fun for beginners and professionals. Life is a joy. Keep the spirit alive!

Hello ! This was a very good tutorial. No hysteric speaking. No hysteric music. Spot on in a calm way. Very well done. I subscribed and will for sure check your other tutorials. Thank you

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Awesome, thank you! Glad this was useful for you! :)

[@sinister_w]

Thanks for the video. At all time i was thinking that it only me and you in this video. You were teaching me and i was learning it. Thanks again 😊

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Hey Sinister W. THanks for your kind words. That's great praise for any teacher! :)

[@frankherrgott]

you're such a great teacher! That's exactly what I was looking for...very clearly explained! Thank you!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad it was helpful! :)

[@rachelbileski]

I know the basics of masking but there was a little detail that I was trying to figure it out, and I couldn't find anywhere else, but in your video. Thank you sir! And congrats!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad I could help! :)

[@stuartdavison289]

Thank you. I'm a relatively new user of DaVinci, trying to get familiar with it to support my daughter who is doing film production at University. This is an excellent tutorial, It doesn't assume anyone understands the terms or how any of the functions work and you take the time to explain everything as you go along at a pace that doesn't require ten views of everything you say. Thank you again.

[@coffeebeanstudio]

You're very welcome!

[@SophiaField]

Best tutorial, really appreciate the attention to detail and how you always explain why and how :)

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks Sophia. Glad it was helpful! :)

[@LightSkySounds]

Thanks for the detailed guide! I enjoy that you are speaking slowly and explaining how the tools work!

[@LightSkySounds]

Notes for personal reference: TYPES OF MASKS - Fusion Masks - Power Windows (Color) - Qualifiers (Color) - tap on Highlight near the preview to isolate the qualifier area - Magic Masks (Color) - Studio Only; as an alternative, creating a polygonal mask and tracking it should still work fine (?) - Depth Maps (Edit/Color) - Studio Only

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Glad it was helpful!

[@mvcastelluccio]

You sir are amazing. I'm typing this comment after watching your video for literally 30 seconds. Within those 30 seconds i have gained more understanding of masks than i have from 20 other videos in the past 2 hours!!! Excellent video. In fact i cant think of a word to express how truly delighted i am to have watched this video. Instant sub from me. You were perfectly concise , while elaborating on the point so we can actually understand WHY you do something in resolve , rather than just showing us. Thank you sooooo much. Now i have to continue watching all of your videos!

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thank you so much. That’s high praise. ☺️☺️Appreciate the sub. Hope your da Vinci journey is exciting.

[@abitwithadog]

I like the way you present the big picture first then work towards the details of the subject. This approach makes the lesson easier to follow and more likely to be absorbed in long term memory. Your presentation is good considering that you don't use a prompter or lesson plan. I would recommend either of these for a more polished presentation that doesn't drag in spots. A prompter would also allow you to look directly at the camera and have a more personable feel to the viewer. I think you are an excellent instructor and look forward to your future lesson creations in Resolve. Good work !

[@coffeebeanstudio]

Thanks for watching and thanks for the constructive critique. I'll keep this in mind for my next rodeo! :)

[@EnigmaMachine1932]

I have listened to so many videos describing fusion and masks, and your video was the best I have ever seen. Thank you -)
