We will start our course with how we can download the software. It's very simple. You go to Blackmagic Design.com, then you go to products and you select Da Vinci resolve and fusion software.

Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 3. How to install the Davinci Resolve software: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to install the Vinci Resolve software on our device. So after we download the software, we get this file here. It's a zip file, we need to extract it. So right-click on it and we slept extract here. To get this option you need to have when reared on your computer or you can use any other software that enables you to extract the zip files. Here we are. We get this executable file, so double-click on it to install the software. Wait for a moment. We get this window here and we select only the Da Vinci Resolve software. We click Install. We get this window, we click Next in order to install the software and we need to accept the terms of the licensing agreements. So we check this box to accept and we click Next. From here we step where we want to install the software. You click next and install. We wait for a moment for the software to be installed. We are now click on Finish and we click on Okay. If you go to your desktop, you will find the software's shortcut icon. Double-click on it to open the software. And that's how we install the software. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 4. Create your first project: Hello and welcome to this video. In the former video, we saw how to install the software, and this is the software shortcuts icon on our desktop. So we double-click on it to open the software. You get this window here. You can double-click here on untitled project to start a new project. But if you do so, you want to be able to name your project. So instead we click here on New Project and we name our project before we started. We named this project first project for example. Then we click Create. Here we are our projects patient is open. This is default interface, but the software have multiple interfaces that you can choose from. We have the media interface, we use it at media files are projects. Next we have the cut interface, then the edit interface we use it. Edits are files that we have diffusion interface. Next we have the color gradient interface, edit. And the color gradient interfaces are the most important ones that you will be using extensively in your projects. Next we have the fair light interface. This one is for the audio files. And finally, we have the deliver interface which we use to render our projects. These are the software's interfaces. You can customize your interfaces. For example, we have here the timeline, the Media Player window, the media pool window. And you can adjust the size of each window to fit your screen so that you can work comfortably. And this applies to all the interfaces. So that's it for this video. Then it's watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 5. Import media files: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll see how to import our media files to the software. We are at the interface, we have here at the media pool, and this is where we add our media files to. Now there's two ways to add the media files. The first one we right-click and we slept imports media. We locate the file or files we want to add and we select them. Then we click Open. We get this window, we click Change. And here we are. If you put your mouse over a video, you will see a preview of that video. We have here three dots icon. You click on it to get this window that contains information about the video, like the resolution, frame rate, etc. Now, this is the first way. Like I said, there is another way to add multiple media files. You can add images, videos, audio files all at once. This is convenient, especially if you are working on a larger project and have a lot of media files, we delete these files here. So we click on Import Media folder. I have here a folder that contains all the media files, the images, the music, and videos. I selected, and I click on Select Folder. And as you see, the folders are important to the software. Now if I access the videos folder, I will find all the videos inside of it. We click here to switch between folders. We have the images folder and the music folder. So this is how we can import file. So the software, that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 6. preview your video before adding it to timeline: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to get a preview of your videos before you can add them to the timeline. We go to our media files folder, we access the videos folder. Here we have our videos. You can change the way your videos are displayed. From here. We have large icons, medium icons, timeline, and less preferred. This one, the medium icon menu. Now to get a preview of the video, just hover over it with the mouse. If you want to get a preview of the video in the media player window, just double-click on the video and your video will be displayed here. You can check all your videos before you add any of them to the timeline. You can click here to add all of the videos to the media player at once. So this is how you can see a preview of your videos before you add them to the timeline. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 7. cutting videos in the preview window: Hello and welcome to this video. In the former video, we saw how to get a preview of our videos before adding them to the timeline, we double-click on the video and it will be displayed on the media player. Now we can use this feature to cut apart of the video and add it to the timeline. Instead of adding the entire video to the timeline. If you don't want to add the whole video, you can cut it and add only the part that you want to the timeline. We have this video here as an example. And let's say that we want to add only a part of this video to the timeline. So we set this cursor to the beginning of the part that we want to add to the timeline. And we set this one at the end of it. So basically, we selected the part that we want to add to the timeline. Now we drag the video to the timeline to Edit. And here are the parts of the video that we selected is added to the timeline. We can do that to anybody we have. For example, we select this part of this video. Then we drag it to the timeline. Here we are. This is a special feature in the da Vinci results software because in all of the other softwares we have to add the video to the timeline and then we can cut it and select the part that we want to keep in the timeline. But with this software, we are able to cut the video before adding it to the timeline. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 8. project settings: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to set the video settings before we start the editing process in our project. To set your video settings, you click on this icon here. And this is where you set your video settings. We have here the resolution. If you found your own videos, you will know the resolution that you use. And if your quad your videos online, you set the resolution based on the video. I will go with 19201080 HD resolution. Next we have here at the timeline frame rate, this represents the number of frames per second in your project. Here we are. Now we click Save. We get this window here with like change. And here we are. Our video settings are set. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 9. adding videos to timeline: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to add our media files to the timeline. In this video, we will be working on the edits interface instead of the cut interface. Like I said before, you will be using the edit interface and the color gradient interface the most in your projects. This is dated interface. We have here the timeline, the media player and the media file is pool. Like I said before, you can customize and adjust the windows. Anyway, you like we have here at the Media Player. And like we saw before, we double-click on the video to see a preview of it, before we add it to the timeline. To add a video to the timeline, you can drag it from the MediaPlayer to the timeline like this. Or you can drag it directly from the media pool. When you add the video to the timeline, you can see a timeline edit in here automatically. And you see we have video and audio tracks in here. And you can add multiple videos at once if you want. You slept the videos you want and drag them to the timeline than just them any way you want. As you can see, we have here videos with audio and the way that it's audio. The ones with the audio have this green tape and DOD track, and the ones without audio have nothing in the audio track. So this is one way of adding media files to the timeline. We have another way. Let's say this. We want to add another video after this one, right here. You put the cursor at the end of the video. Then we select the video we want to add. Then we click right here on overrides clip, or we click on its shortcut, the FTM button. And who are the selected video is added directly after this video. And we keep going until we add all the videos we want. Now let's say that we want to add a video in the middle of this one. It's very simple. You set the cursor at the points where you want to add your new video. You select the video you want to add. Then you click here on Insert, clip or click on its shortcut, the F9 button. And here we are. Now if you want to replace the video you have in the timeline with another one, you select the video in the timeline, then select the one you want to replace this width and click on Replace clip, or use the shortcut F 11 button. This is how you can add videos to the timeline and how to insert a video into another one and how to replace a video on the timeline. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 10. setting the timeline tracks: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the timeline tracks these other objects that contains the media files. I will adjust the size of the timeline so that we can take a good look at the text. As you see, we have two tracks here, the video track and the audio track. Now we will see how to add or delete records from the timeline. We have here at the video track. You can rename the track by double-clicking here and giving it any name you want. I will name it the videos, for example. To add another track, right-click here and select, Add Correct. I just objects to get some space to see the new texts we add. We named this drag images for example. And we can add images to this drug. We can put the images here or here. You can put them anywhere you want. Now we named this track audio, and we add the LDF files to it. So this is how we can organize our timeline. We can adjust the size of the objects like this so that we can have multiple cracks visible in here. Let's click on the track and select change colors, assign a color to the selected drag. We do get to distinguish between tracks. We can arrange the timeline like this. Now, the media player will show a video than an image than a video and so on. The video track can be used for images as well. Let's click and select Add drag. If you want to add a single track. And right-click and select Add text.

The tracks are added right here. And to delete any track, just right-click on it and select Delete tract. So this is how you can organize your timeline tracks, which will help you keep an organized projects. So that's all about drags. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 11. timeline: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the timeline. Now this is the normal view of the timeline, but you can change it by clicking right here. We have here Timeline View Options, video view options, and audio view options. We have here two options for the timeline view and three options for the video view. Go back to the first option. It's the one I use, and we have two options for the audio view as well. You can select all three at once or any one of them on its own. In here we have the track height. You can adjust the height of the video and audio tracks. This will come in handy, especially if you have a big project with multiple cracks. You can adjust the height of the video and audio tracks based on your needs. After you are done, you click anywhere to close this window. And you can adjust the width of your drags from here. If you want to add another timeline, you click here.

We use the selection tool to select and move media files around the timeline. For example, we can shuffle these media files like that using the selection tool. You can use the selection tool to select multiple files at once. For example, we slept these two files and we can put them anywhere. We want. Just make sure that when you place your files there's enough space for them. For example, if I put this image here over the other one, a part of the image will be dropped. So instead, I need to put it in another track or make enough space for it in that Greg in case you made a mistake and replaced the file that you don't want to collect control plus C To undo your last move. And you can keep clicking and Control Z to undo your moves until you get back to the Move you want. So that's all about the selection tool.

It is we click Play. Now if I want to cut off parts of it, we click Play and we wait until we get to the beginning of the part that we want to cut. Let's say from here, then we'd have this cursor up to that point. Or we can use the shortcuts by clicking either from the keyboard. Now we go to the end of that part that we want to cut. We set the cursor at that point. Or we can use the shortcuts by clicking O from the keyboard. Now the part that we want to cut a selected, we do have a video to the timeline. And this is how we can cut the video before we add it to the timeline. Now let's say that the video that we want to cut is already added to the timeline. It's very simple. We use the selection tool and we hover over the end of the video until we get this symbol. Then we get the video from the end, from the beginning keeping only the part that we want to use. We slept the space and do click Delete on the keyboard to remove it. We have another way to cut our videos, and it's better than the two ways we just sell. We click on the Trim Edit Mode button. Then we can remove the parts that we don't want and it will be replaced with the next video automatically. This is better than cutting the video and then having to remove the space that was left manually. And we can remove apart from the beginning of the video and it will be replaced with the video before it's automatically as well, leaving no space at all. Now if you want to cut apart from the middle of the video, we used the Blade Edit Mode. We click on it and we can cut any parts we want. Then we can shuffle, let's remove it or whatever we want.

You can see the text appeared in the video here. And we can adjust the title's length. Just like videos, images and Adios. Now we will see how to adjust the text size, color, etc. We click on inspector and we get this menu here. From here we can type whatever we want. For example, we type business. Then we can use these options to adjust the text. We can select the font site from here. We have the font-face in here, and this option will vary based on the font type you select. From here, we can select the next color. We have here, the size. You can select any size you want. In here we have the dragon. It's the space between each letter. And we have here the line spacing, the space between lines. Next we have the font-style. So basically, we have here multiple options that we use to edit our texts.

So go ahead and take a look at these options. So this is the title and you can put it any way we want. Next we have here the fusion titles. It's basically a moving text. For example, it was left this one we added to the timeline. We click Play. We decrease its length. We can blame. And here it is. Take a look at all the fusion titles we have here and select the one you like. You can adjust its length and put it anywhere you want to take a look at it. And here it is. Unlike we saw.

How to create multiple texts: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to add the text to our videos. This time we will add more than just one word. We will add multiple sentences, and we will adjust each sentence differently. First, to add a title to the timeline. Crop it to fit with the length of our video. Then we adjust it. We type the first sentence, for example, for this project. Then we click Enter to move to the next line. We typed Da Vinci resolve. In this line. We click Enter again to move to the next line. And we type video editing, for example, in here. But of course you can type whatever you want in here. Now if I wanted to change the color of the text, the change would be applied to the whole text. Same thing if I wanted to change the font. But like I said at the beginning, we want to change each sentence on its own. So we select the sentence that we want to edit, then we can change its color without affecting the rest of the text. We select the second sentence and we change its color as well. Then we selected the last sentence and we change its color. So as you see, each sentence is in a different color. We apply this to all the other options. For example, we changed the font of the first sentence. Then we changed the font of the second one. We can adjust its size. Same thing for the last sentence. We can adjust the space between the lines. And we can adjust all the texts options we saw. We just select the text. We want to apply the chain rule and we change it. So this is how we can adjust each sentence on its own. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 17. text animation: Hello and welcome to this video.

The parts were the text appears and the parts where the text fade away. To show the text selection tool, we click here. Now we start with the Transform options. You have here, the Zoom position, and the more options. We'll start with the zoom option. Let's say for example, we want the video to be without text, and suddenly the text appears. We set the cursor at the beginning of the title and we set a keyframe at the zoom option. Then we set the zoom option to 0 to hide the text completely. Then we set the cursor at the points where we want the text to appear, as we said, the size that we want the text to appear in. We go back, we click play. Here, our text appears suddenly. Now if you want to adjust the speed of the appearance of the text, you click right here. You get this option here. And you can adjust its speed from here. In case this option was not available to you, you click here and deselect Transform options you used. For example, we use the zoom options so we make sure to check the Zoom x in here.

You click on the red dots, then you click right here. You can see the line becomes curved and not straight like here. Now I click Play and you can see the animation is smoother now. And we can adjust it if we want. We click Play, and here we are. You can click on the round arrow here to remove the animation. There's slightly different way than the one we just saw. Let's say this. We want the text to appear at this point. There's no need to set a keyframe at this point. And at the beginning of the video, we just set the cursor at the points where we want it to appear. Then we set the keyframe. We put the cursor back at the beginning, and we set the zoom to 0. We click Play, and here we are. Now we move to the position option. Let's say this, we want the text to appear from the top. We set the cursor at this point. We want that set to stop here. So we set a keyframe at this position. We go back to the beginning. Then we pull the text up until it's gone. We click Play. And here we are. Text appears from the top and stuffs right here. Like I said before, we can adjust the duration of the animation from here. Make the animation smoother. Do the same. If we want the text to appear from the left. We set the cursor here. We set a keyframe. We go back to the beginning and we pull the text to the left until it's gone. We click Play, and here we are. Same thing if we want to rotate the text. You put the cursor here. We set a keyframe. We go back to the beginning, rotate the text. We click Play, and here we are. That's if you want to rotate the text from the middle. If you want to rotate the text from this site, you have to change the position of the anchor points. We remove this rotation. Now we set the position of the anchor point to the site. Now the rotation wants to be set to the middle, but to decide like this. So the rotation is made based on where the anchor points we set. Let's add a keyframe in here. We go back to the beginning. We rotate the text, we click Play, and here we are. And this applies to the rest of the options in here. Let's write a pitch. We set the cursor. Here. We add a keyframe. We go back to the beginning.

The text appears, then disappears at the end. Take a look at the process like this. Mr. Moore, this process. We replace it with the Transform process. We add a position keyframe in here. We go to the end of the video and we lowered the texts like this. Go back quickly play. Let's increase the length of the process so that we can take a good look at it. We go back quickly plane, and here we are. So we have two animation processes, which means two lines in here, the opacity and the positions. You can select the opacity line and adjust it.

And you click on this round arrow to set it back to default. Next we have the position sitting, position x and position y. Next we have the rotation angles setting the center of the rotation is the anchor points. You can rotate your video like this. Next we have the anchor point setting. We use it to change the location of the anchor points. Now if I change the anchor point here, you can see the rotation changes as well. Like I said, the anchor point is the center of the rotation. Next we have the pitch setting than the yellow setting. Next we have the flip setting. We click here to flip the video horizontally. And we click here to flip the video vertically. Let's add another video to take a good look. If I click here, we flipped the video vertically. What is up is down, and what is down is up. And you can even create an animation using the transform settings. We start by selecting the video. We said the cursor at the points where we want the zoom to start at. Then we add a keyframe. Then we set the cursor at the points where we want the zoom to end. And we adjust the zoom. We click Play, and here we are. We can reverse the process. This time we add a zoom out. Here we are. We click Play. Perfect. Like I said, we saved a starting point and an ending point to our effects.

And now we merged the two videos. Sit the videos side-by-side to be cropped this video like this. Now let's say this, we want this center of the shifts that appear in here. We put this video back here. Then we go to the transform settings, the position setting, and we dropped a video here to show the middle of the ship. Then we put the video back here and we can show more than two videos as well. We add the third video. And the fourth. We get this video to fit with the rest of the videos. We just did timelines. You have a good look at all the videos. Perfect. Now we've cropped this video. And do we keep only the vehicle? We use the position, setting its position, the video in here, crop, it's a bit more. We put it at the bottom left corner. Now we've cropped the next video. We put it here. Never crop the next video. You just have to show more of the ship. Perfect, and who we are. We have four videos showing in here. We can leave this video like this, or we can change the view. Let's change the view. That's better. Perfect. So this is one of the things that we can do using the cropping settings. And of course you can add more videos to the screen if you want. Now let's see another thing that we can deal with grabbing settings. We delete these videos from the timeline and we add this video. We set a keyframe in the crop left setting. At the beginning of the video, we drag the cursor here at the end points of the effects. We drag the video. Here. We go back, we click Play, and here we are. The video closes to the right. And you can use the rest of the settings to do the same effect to all the other directions. So basically what we saw with the Position settings applies to the crop in settings as well.

We have here, the composite mode setting, which we can use to merge multiple images or videos together. So we start by selecting this video here. And when we hover over the composite modes here you can see the change, but it will not work properly until we merge the two videos we have here. So we put this video over the other one. Now when we take a look at the modes, each mode gives us a different result. And we can adjust the opacity from here to get the results we desire. We click Play and as you see, the two videos appear to be merged. So this is how we can use the composite mode setting to merge videos together. Now we'll move to top video. Replace it with this image here. We can use images with black background like this one here has effects. We selected the composite mode screen. To delete the image black background. We click Play, and here we are. We have this cool fire effect right here. And this is how we can use the composite mode selling to add effects to our videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 26. speed control: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll see how to fast-forward and slower videos. Now it's just your video speed. You go to the speed change settings in the inspector menu. We have this video here to work on. Like I said, we go to the speed change settings. We have here, direction setting, speed and frames per second. Then the duration setting. Now if you want to fast forward your video, you increase this number here over 100. You can use the number of box or you can use the wheel here to increase the number. If you take a look here, when we fast-forward the video, it's duration shrunk. Now it's 37 seconds long. You put the settings back to default. Now we use a direction to reverse the video. You can see now the car is moving towards the front. But if I click here, it will move to the back. And you can freeze the video from here. So we can move the video in both directions and freeze it from here. And we can fast-forward the video by increasing this number here. And slow the video by decreasing the same number. So this is how we can fast forward and slow our videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 27. speed control using trim edit mode: Hello and welcome to this video. In the former video, we saw how to fast-forward and slow our videos. Now let's say that we have a big project with multiple videos on the timeline and we want to change the speed of certain video. For example, this one here. We can use the inspector menu like we saw in the former video, or we can right-click on it to get these options here. We have changed club duration, change clip speed, real-time controls, and real time curve. We click on Change Club speed. We get this window here. We increase the number 0 to increase the speed of the video, we click Change. And you can see we have some space here. Let me increase the speed so that you can take a good look. So like I said before, when we increase the speed of a video, it's duration gets front, which leaves us with this empty space here. And that requires us to select the follow-on videos and drag them to cover the empty space. And if we have a big project, it will take a lot of time and effort to cover each space manually. Now we'll go back. Right-click on the video and we select real-time controls. We get these blue arrows here and the representation of the video speed. We have here 100 per cent. We can change the speed from here. And we click on reset to 100 to put it back to its normal speed. Now if we increase the speed to 800%, same thing will happen. We will have this empty space here. So to avoid that, we use the Trim Edit Mode. Drag the video to slow it down like this. You can see that the rest of the videos adjusted deposition in the timeline automatically based on the duration of the video. Same thing, if we will speed the video, the rest of the videos would adjust their position automatically and we have no empty space here. This is very useful, especially if you have a big project with multiple videos on the timeline. You can speed up or slow your videos very easily. So this is how we can use the Trim Edit Mode to adjust the speed of our videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 28. adjusting the speed of certain parts of your video: Hello and welcome to this video. In the former video, we saw how to fast-forward or slow a whole video without affecting the other videos in the timeline. Now in this video, we will see how to fast-forward a part of the video and not the whole video. We started by right-click on the video and we show the real-time controls. We click on the Trim Edit Mode. We will split the video. We set the cursor at the points where we want to split the video ads. Then you click on this arrow here. And we select Add speed points. Here are the speed points. Using the bottom points, we can put it wherever we want. And we can set the speed of the video from the top point. If we slide it to the left, will increase the speed of the video. And if we slide it to the right, we will decrease the speed of the video. As you can see, the video is low here, but when it gets to this part, it's back to its normal speed. The lower the number here, the slower the video will be. You can speed the video. Now we put the cursor here. Then right-click and select add speed points. Now, the video is split into three parts. We can adjust the speed of this part as we want. We click play. The first part is fast, second part is low, and the left part is a normal speed. And we can adjust the speed of the last parts from here. So this is how we can split our videos and adjust the speed of each part. If you want to remove the split, you put the cursor on that part, then right-click and select Clear speed points. Here we are, the parts are merged together. Same thing here to put it back to one part. And at the end, right-click and select Reset club to cancel the speed and put it back to its original state. So this is how we can speed up or slow parts of the video. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 29. retime speed: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll keep talking about how to slow and speed our videos, like we saw in the former video, we will split this video to treat bots. Speed the first spot, we slow the second and the speed the third. Now the video starts fast, then slow and fast again. Now if you take a look here, there is no smooth transition. The video is fast, then suddenly slow or slowed and suddenly fast. So we need to smooth out the transition. We do so using the real-time curve. So let's click on the video and we select query time curve. We get this line here, which look here. And we remove three timeframe. We live only in the real-time speed. We have here, these two dots where we split the video. The higher this line is, the faster the video. The first part is fast, the middle one is low, and the third part is fast. We can use this anchor point here to split the video. But the cursor there, then we click on the point to split the video. So this is another way that we can use the split our videos. Now, like I said, we need to smooth out the transition between the parts. So we click on this dot. We get these two icons here, right? One is a straight line like we have now, and the left one is a curve. We click on it. And here we are. The line is curved. We click Play. And as you see the video changes speed smoothly. We go back, we could play. Now the transition is smoother than before. Take a look at it before it slowed and suddenly fast. But when we set the line to curve, the transition is smooth. And you can adjust the line manually like this. Same thing for this dot here. We click on the dot, the nucleus on the left icon. The line is going to be now and we can adjust it manually to make it even smoother if we want. We click Play. Now. You can see there's a huge difference. So this is how we can smooth the transition between different speeds in our videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 30. Introduction to video transition effectsV: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll talk about the transition effects. We have these videos here in the timeline. If I hover over video, we will notice two dots appearing on the sides of the video. We can use them to add the transition effects. Now I click Play and you can see that the transition between the two videos was normal. But if I drag this dot here like this, I click Play, and here we are. There was an effect there. We can do that here as well. To make the transition look like this. We can adjust the duration of the effect and set it manually. So this is the initial transition effect that the software offers. You can use it on both sides of the video, the beginning and the end. And you can set its duration. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 31. Adding video transition effects: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the video transitions and we take a look at the video transitions offered by the software. We start by adding these two videos to the timeline. Now, if I want a video transition, I have to edit between these two videos. I hover over here to get this icon. Then I click. If I get this red sign, it means I can add the video transition. I need to get a part of these videos. I take a part of this video. We are now it's green. And I got a part of this video as well. Now when I hover over here, I get the icon, I click, I get a green sign. Now I can add the video transition. So we go to the effects library and we have here the video transitions. We have multiple options to choose from. If you want to see a preview of the video transition before you edit, just hover over it like this, and you will see a preview in the media player. Now we select the transition video. Here it is. We dragged here. We click play and hear the video. Transmission is in effect. We click on it and you click Delete from the keyboard to remove it. Now we add another one. Here it is. We click Play, and here we are. We can adjust its duration by right-click on the transition effects and we select Change transition duration. And that depends on the duration that we cut from both videos before we edit the video transition. Now if I want to increase the duration of the video transition, I can't because that's the max of the duration of the parts iPads. I want to increase its duration. I need to get more of the videos. I got more from the videos, and I add the video transition. I can decrease the duration of the video transition, but I can increase it beyond the length of the parts I got from the videos. We just its duration like this. And we have here multiple video transitions that we can choose from. So this is how we can add video transitions to our videos. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 32. video transition effects settings: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll see how to adjust the video transitions. We have here, the video transition that we added before. We leave the cursor here. Over the video transition. Here's the video transition. Now double-click on it to go to the Inspector menu and we have the transition settings here. Now, the Settings menu here will vary dependent on the video transition you select. For example, we select the yellow arrows video transition. This is its settings menu. Now I select the smartcard video transition, and as you see it's settings menu is different. Now we go back to the arrow iris transition. The first setting we have here is a transition type. We have multiple types here, box, center, y, star, etc. For example, a select star. Next we have here the duration, like I said before, the transition duration depends on the duration of the videos we gloves before. You can decrease the duration if you want from here. Next we have the frames, then the alignments. Now the video transmission is aligned in the middle between the two videos, which is the perfect position. But we can align it to the right or to the left if we want. Take a look at it when we align it to the middle. Now take a look at it. When we align it to the left. You can align it to anywhere you want. Now, the video transition is in the shape of a star. And from here we can set how many points are in the star. We have 456 stars. You can select the one we like. Next we have offset to center setting. We use it to set out transition anywhere we want. If we want to put the settings back to its default state, we click on the rounded arrow here. Next we have the rotation. We use it to rotate the video transition. Next we have the borders setting. We use it at a border. Here, take a look at it. And we can click on the Federal Option to make it look like this. We can change the border color from here. Next we have the east setting. We set it to none. If we want to leave it as it is. You can select into make it starts in a smooth way. And we select out to end it smoothly. Then in and out to start and end the video transitions smoothly. Then we have customer to customer any way we like. Let's select ease in and out. You may not notice a difference now, but the more experience you gain, the more clear this will be. Next we have the transition curve. Just as any way you like. And you can use the keyframes here to adjust these settings. For example, we set the cursor here. We set the keyframe in the rotation setting. We rotate the video transition. We click Play, and here it is. This, this is how we can adjust our video transitions. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 33. video transition effects curve editor: Hello and welcome to this video. Continue with the transition videos. And in this video we will talk about the Curve Editor. We saw how to adjust our video transitions. And the Curve Editor is another way to adjust them. We click on the icon on the lower right edge of the video transition to get this option here, we click here to open the editor, which is the timeline, so we can take a good look at it. We have two points in the Curve Editor, the inter points and the exit points. We can adjust the line from here. We can adjust this manually like this as well. You can see the video transition changing. We click play. Like I said, we adjusted mentally to get the result that we want. Click here to put it back to its default state. We can add a keyframe here. And we adjusted any way we like. We click Play and you can see how the video transition looks now. So that's all about the graph editor. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 34. setting video transition effects presets: Hello and welcome to this video. In the former video we talked about the Curve Editor. And in this video we will see how to save our adjustments to apply to other video transitions instead of doing the whole process all over. It's very simple. Let's click on the video transition. Then we click on Create Transition presets. We get this window here. We choose a name for the preset. We click. Okay. Then we go to the video transitions menu. We get this menu here named user. Here we find the B set that we just saved. Then we add it anywhere we want. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 35. Double exposure effect: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to create the double exposure effect. We have this video here as an example. It is included for you to use. Now we will add the other video to use it as a background. We put it above the character video. We selected. Then we go to the inspector window, we go to composite and we select lightened in the composite mode. Here we are. The background is added inside the character. Here's some parts outside the character. So it goes to the color page. We showed clips. We select our clip and we decrease the saturation to 0. It's painted background in white and covered those white spots. We go back to the edit page, we click Play, and here we are. Now we add another video. We put it above the character video. We select it. Then we go to the Inspector window and we select lighten in the composite mode. We click plane, and here we are. We have another example to work on. Now some videos will not be easy, like the example we saw before. We add the video, then we select lightened in the composite mode. As you can see, we have a problem here. The video is spilled to the background. And that is because the background is not White. So to fix that, we go to the color page, select the clip. And it will reduce the saturation to 0. As you can see, it's still not fixed. So just again like this, until the background becomes white. Perfect, you go back to the edit page. We click Play, and here we are. This is how you can fix this problem. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 36. ghost effect: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to create a very cool effect. We will work on this video here. We start by duplicating the video. We direct the top video here so that the video is don't be identical. Then we go to the Inspector window and we reduce the videos opacity like this. You can see the second video is visible. Now. We click Play, and here we are. We have this cool effect here. Now, it's very easy and very simple to create. You can set the opacity to any level you like depending on how you want the effect to look like. Like I said, this effect is very easy to create. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 37. timer: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the timer. We will see how to add a timer to our videos. We start by adding this video to this track. Now go to the effects library. We go to type this menu and we add the text selected to get its settings in here. Now let's click on the text box and we select timecode. And here we are. We have a timer in here. Now right-click on the text title and we select Change Club duration. You set the duration to 30 seconds. We set it to 30 seconds. We click change. Now we click Play and the timer starts. And of course we can set it to any iteration we want. Since we've set the timer to seconds only, we need to remove the hours and the minutes from here. So we click here to go to diffusion page. We select the template node. Then what's left modifiers. We select the timecode on templates setting. We select controlled setting. And in here we have the hours, the minutes, seconds, and frames. Uncheck the hours and the minutes. Now we have only the seconds and frames left. We go back and we can change the timers size. You can change its font. We select this font. We can change its color. I'll keep it in white. Now we can set the dragon, It's the space between the numbers. We go back to this page, we click Play, and here we are. The timer starts. And now we have the seconds and frames only. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 38. adjust volume: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to adjust the volume in our videos. Now there are two ways to do that. The first way is by selecting the audio file in the audio track. Then we go to the inspector window. We get the volume setting here and we use it to decrease or increase the volume. You can see the volume level is represented in the audio track. This is the first way. The second way to adjust the volume is by using the mixer. Now there is a difference between the Inspector and the mixer that we need to be aware of. We have here our audio file in the audio track, and we will split it to three parts. Now we can select any parts we want and adjust its volume separately using the inspector. For example, we select the first part. We decrease its volume and as you see, the other parts are left intact. We only adjusted the volume in the first part. Now, if we use the mixer, we played the audio. You can see the volume is represented in DOD one channel. If we decrease the volume, it will be decreased for the whole video, not just the selected parts. And as you see, the volume level when we use the mixer is not represented in the audio track like when we use the inspector. Because the mixer adjust the volume in the whole track, which means that any audio file we have in this track will be affected by the change. So this is the difference between the mixer and the inspector. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 39. adjusting the volume at the start and end of clip: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to adjust the volume at the start and at the end of the video. For example, we can start the video with lower volume and set it to increase as the video play to give a cool effect. We start by selecting the audio file in the audio track. As you can see when we select the audio file will get a dot at the starts and another at the end. We can drag it like this to adjust the volume at the start of the audio file. You take log again. We can adjust this line to set the volume anyway, we like we set it like this. You click play. And here we are. Like I said, we can set the volume anyway, we like. And of course this applies to the end of the audio file as well. You can set it in a way that the volume starts to drop by the end of the video to give a cold effects. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 40. color page: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video, we will start talking about the color correction process. After you finish editing your videos and adding on the effects and video transitions and texts, etc. You start color grading your videos. Videos that you want to calibrate to the timeline. Then you go to the color interface. The videos that we added to the timeline in the edit interface would be right here. We can select any value we want, and we can navigate the videos using this cursor here. Like I said before, you can customize the interface anyway, like dependent on how you like your screen to look like. You can even remove some parts of the interface, make room for others. You click on gallery to remove it and give more room to the media player. You can remove the clips as well. By clicking on clubs here. And you click on timeline to remove the timeline as well. I'll keep the timeline and remove the gloves so that I get more space. And like I said, we can navigate the clips using the terminal. I will bring the gallery back as well. Next we have here the lots. In here. We have the media pool. It's contains our media files. In here we have the nodes. We use it to calibrate our videos and we will see all about it in the coming videos. In here we have the color grading tools. We have here multiple tools that we use to calculate our videos. You have your multiple menus and we will take a look at each one in the coming videos. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 41. Nodes: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the nodes. Now in some other softwares like the Adobe Premiere software, it works with layers. But the da Vinci resolve software works with nodes. We have here the first node. This node shows us the original state of our video. We still haven't made any adjustments to it. And the node, this will be at the end here. We'll show the final state of our video. After we make our adjustments. We add a new node by clicking Alt plus S from the keyboard. Like I said, the first node shows us the default state of our video. Now we select the Senate node. We just our video. This is just a random adjustments, just an example like this. So as you can see here, the first node shows us our video as its original state. And the second one shows our video with the adjustment that we just made. And the last node chose the final look of our video. We want to just our video even more. We add another node and we'll make another adjustment. Each time we want to make a new adjustment to our video, we add a new node. Like I said, the final node shows the final adjustments, so that will be the final look of our video. We click here to deactivate the note and remove the adjustments that we made in it. So this is the original logo of our video. Then it looked like this. And then like this. You can position the nose anyway you like. So each time you want to make a new adjustment to add a new node and adjust your video. And like I said, the final node, of course, will show the final look of our video. To remove the notoriously, you select it and click Delete on the keyboard. And of course that will delete any investment that was made on that note. You can delete the notes in any order you want. If you have multiple nodes in your screen, they will take space. So you may want to adjust their size to save space. For example, at multiple nodes in here. And as you see, we might need more space in here. So to fix that, we adjust the size of the nodes. We go here and we adjust their size from here. Now we can organize them anyway. We want, for example, we organize them like this. And of course, like I said, you can organize them any way you want. As you can see, this looks way better than before. So we just decided nodes from here. And the bigger your project, the more nodes you will have and you will not be able to see all of them. So you just decides to be able to see all of them and save space. So that's it for this video and watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 42. Naming nodes: Hello and welcome to this video. We keep talking about the notes. Now if you want to add a new node between existing nodes, you just select the node that you want to add the new one after. Then click Alt S to add the new node. For example, will select this one. Then we'll click on plus S. And here we add, the new node is added in here. Now I'll add multiple nodes in here. I will organize them like this. Now let's say that we made an adjustment with each node. Now, if I wanted to know which adjustments I made using that note, I have to select the note and take a look at it. And if I have a big project with multiple nodes, that will take time and effort. So to avoid that, we named each node so that we know which is which. For example, if we use this note to adjust the contrast, we right-click on it, we slept node label and rename its contrast. So now we know that we use this node to adjust the contrast. Now if we want to just contrast, we will go directly to it. For example, when there's no light. And this one shadow and so on. Like I said, if we have a lot of nodes, we named each node so as we can tell which is which to make things easier and save time and effort. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 43. Add effects to nodes: Hello and welcome to this video. We are still working on the nodes. Like I said before, to add a new node, you click Alt plus S from the keyboard. And to delete a node selected and click Delete from the keyboard. There is another way to add nodes in here. We right-click and we select Add note. We get this menu with six types of nodes. We will talk about each one of them in the coming videos. Now we add three nodes in here. And we will see how to remove an adjustment from a node. Make any adjustments on these nodes. This is just an example. Now we make adjustments on the second one. And the third one. Now we made an adjustment in each one of the nodes. Now to remove the adjustments, we can remove the whole note. But let's say that I want to keep the note to replace the adjustments or for whatever reason. I select the node. Then I go to color, reset and I click on selected. Now great. It's shortcut is Shift plus hm. Now the adjustment is removed from the norm. There was an icon here that's gone. The icon men, that's an adjustment was added to the node. You can do that to any node that you want to reset. Select the node, the new go-to color reset, and you click on selected node grade. Under the changes I made and go back. I have adjustments on the nodes. Now. Now there's another way to reset the nodes. We select the node, then we go to color reset, and this time we click on grades and keep notes. We use this option to reset all the nodes at once. Now instead of resetting the nodes, we want to delete all of them. We go to color resets and we click on grades and nodes are, the nodes are gone. And we have here only the primary node of the video left. This is how we can reset the single node or all the nodes at once and how we can remove them. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 44. connect nodes: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to connect and disconnect nodes. As you see, we have here a line that connects the nodes. And this is the line that shows us the final hour video. I'll add some adjustments. These nodes here. For example, like this. Now let's say that we wanted to see the final look of our video without the adjustment that we did in this node. It's very simple. We take this line and we can take this node with this one here, disconnecting the node that we want to see the look of the video without. You can see that this line turns red, which tells us that this note will be disconnected. And here we are. The adjustment that was made on this node is gone from the video. Now I can see how my video it looks like without this adjustments. You can keep this note here in case we wanted to use it later, or we can remove it by clicking Delete from the keyboard. We can disconnect this node as well if you want to. The adjustments on this node is removed from the video as well. If we want to reconnect the note again, we drag it over the line until the land becomes yellow and we'll leave it there. Now it's adjustments is back on the video. Same thing for this node here. This is how we can connect and disconnect nodes. As you see, the line connecting the node starts here and ends here. If you hover over the light until it becomes blue and then drag it like this. It is connected. Adjustments made will not be shown because it's not connected. If you disconnect the line from the beginning as well, the adjustments will not be shown. So make sure that your nodes are connected from the beginning and from DNH. Now the nodes are connected and all the adjustments are in effect. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 45. parallel nodes: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the parallel line notes and see how to add two nodes at once. Like we said before, we want to add a new node. We click Alt S from the keyboard. Or we can right-click and we select add nodes. We have here multiple options. We have here the parallel mixer. We select it. We drag it over the lines connected. Now we select the node, we click Alt plus S to add a new one. You put it up here. Now we connected to nodes to the beginning point. And we connect this node to the mixer. So here we have two nodes, and now we can add our adjustments to them. Now you may think that this is too much work to just add two nodes. Don't worry, there is a much simpler way. I will delete these nodes. Now we go to Color nodes and we select, Add Parallel lines. And here we are. The nodes and the mixer are added and connected in a single claim. We want to add two nodes. We need the mixer to connect them. Otherwise, we can play them at once. This is how we can add parallel nodes and then we will see why do we need them in the coming videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 46. splitter combiner nodes: Hello and welcome to this video. We keep talking about denotes. We start by going into color nodes and we select Add splitter, combiner. Note its shortcut is Alt plus y. Here we are. We get these three nodes here. They are connected and ready to use. We already talked about the parallel nodes, and you may think it's the same. We just have three nodes here instead of two, but that's not the case. These three nodes here represent the RGB channels, the three color channels, red, green, and blue. Like we have here, red, green, and blue. If I just did this note here, I will adjust the color ramp. As you can see here in the splitter, you can see the order. We have red, green, and blue. Like I said, we use the first node, just the red color in the video. And we use the second one to adjust the color green in the video. And we use the third node to just the blue color. So we use these three nodes to just the RGB channels in our videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 47. combine nodes: Hello and welcome to this video. We keep talking about the nodes in this video and we will see how to combine those together. You start by adding two more nodes in here. We adjust each node. These adjustments are just examples. I'll put the nose like this to organize them. Now if we want to add more adjustments, we need to add more nodes. We add more nodes in here. Now we have here six nodes in total. And we may add more dependent on what we want, which will add a lot of nodes in here. So to save space, we need to combine some notes together. For example, let's let these two nodes then right-click and select, Create compound. Now, here we add the two nodes are combined. Same thing for these three nodes here. We select them, right-click and we say, let's create compound no. Now if we want to adjust the notes that we combined for whatever reason, we right-click on the node and we select Show homebound note here at the nose. Now we can just them any way we like. Then right-click and do is lift exist compound note to go back. Same thing here. Right-click on the compound known with lecture compound node. We get the notes, we make our adjustments and writes, collect and we slept, exit compound note to go back. Now, we no longer want to combine the nodes. We right-click on it and we select decomposed compound node. And here we are. This is how we can combine those to save space and keep our project organized. That's it for this video that's watching. And I'll see you in the next video. 48. share nodes: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to share nodes between videos. We have the first video here. Now we add a new node. You make an adjustment. Adjustment. This is just an example. Now let's say this. We want to apply the same adjustment to this video. It's very simple. We shared this node with the video. We right-click on the node, then we select Save As shared node. Now the note is named chaired know. You can double-click on it to change its name. Now we'll select the video we want to show the node width. Then right-click on the last node we have here, and we select Add Node. We will find the shape note down here that already shared node before. That's why I have here showed node 12. Now we select the shape node and the same adjustments will be applied to this video. After you shoot a note, the software automatically log sets, and now you can't add any more adjustments to this note. In case you wanted to make adjustments to that node, you right-click on it and you uncheck log note. Now you can make any adjustments you want to debt note. And the adjustments that you make on this node will be applied to both videos now. So this is how we can share nodes between videos. That's it for this video and watching. And I'll see you in the next video. 49. timeline: Hello and welcome to this very, we keep talking about the notes. You may think that this is taking too long, but the notes are very important parts of the software and you need to know all about. You might have noticed that whenever we make any adjustments, it's applied only to the video, we select it. But you may have multiple videos that you want to adjust at the same time. You can do that. And it's very simple. We have here two pages in the node space. We have the clip, and if we click here, we get the timeline page. You can choose your page from here as well, between clip and timeline. Now that we are at the timeline page, we click Alt plus S to add a new node. Now what you've just the mid-tones colors, for example. You can see the video is now a bit reddish. Just the shadow and the highlight to make it more red. Of course, this adjustment is just an example. It has nothing to do with color correction. I'm just trying to show the difference. Now let's take a look at the other videos in the timeline and SEC, the same adjustment is applied to all the videos in the timeline. So this is how we can just all the videos in the timeline. Instead of adjusting each video on its own. We click on the rounded arrow here to reset the settings. Or we can right-click on the node and select reset, no grade. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 50. group nodes: Hello and welcome to this video. In the form of videos, we saw how to apply adjustments to each node, and we also saw how to apply adjustments to all the videos and the timeline. Now in this video we'll see how to apply adjustments to multiple videos. First we go to the clip Paige here. We can see the clips that we have here. Now we select the videos that we want to adjust and add them to a group. We hold control and we select the videos we want to use. Then right-click on them and we select add into a new group. We named the group. For example, for this project. Now if we go to group, we will find it. Here it is. First project. Now go here and we slept group breed club. Now we can make any adjustments we want. Example, it just highlights and shadows. You can see in the video is a bit bluish. Now the adjustments we just made, our applied to all the videos in the group. In case you wanted to know what your videos are edited group, it's the ones with this icon right here. To remove a video from the group, you right-click on it and this electron move from group. And to add a video to the group, you right-click on the video and select add into current group. Now the video is edited group, like I said, to remove it, right-click and select and move from group. This is how we can apply adjustments to select the videos. You will get this. Often. You will have similar videos that you want to adjust. And this will come in handy to save you a lot of time and effort. Instead of having to work on each video separately, which takes a lot of time and effort. So this is how you can work on multiple videos at once. If you want to delete the group, you right-click on one of the videos, then go to the group and you select the rule. In this case first projects, then you select delete, click Delete, and the group is removed. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 51. scopes: Hello and welcome to this video. In the former videos, we have been talking about the notes and we saw all about it. Now in this video we'll talk about the Lumetri Scopes. The Lumetri Scopes, unlike maps that helps us correct colors. To access the Lumetri Scopes, we click here. We have your multiple types of scopes. We will cover all of them. We start with the parade. We use the parade to gauge the temperature of the colors. Next we have the waveform. We use it to gauge the light exposure. We have the lights on the top and the shadow on the bottom. Next we have the vector scope. We use the vector scope to see the density of the colors. Next we have the histogram. We use it to balance the colors. If you want to show all the scopes at once, you click here. And here we are. We have here a window that shows us all the scopes. So these are the scopes that we use the correct colors. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 52. primaries menu first part: Hello and welcome to this video. We are still talking about the primary menu. And in this video we will take a look at these settings here. It starts with the color blue setting. We use the color boost setting to boost the colors in our videos. Take a look at the video. After we boosted its colors. You can boost the colors at any rate you want. After boosted the colors, you can see that the white color in the video turned a bit goldman, like it's sunset. You can always double-click on the setting to reset it. Next we have the shadow setting. We use it to adjust the shadows in the video. Next we have the highlights setting. We use it to adjust the brightness of the video. Next we have the saturation setting. We use it to just the saturation of the video colors. And here we have the here. So these are the settings here and how to use them to color correct your videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 53. primaries menu second part: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll talk about the primary menu and how to use it to correct colors in your videos, we have here four wheels. We have the left will adjust the shadow, then the Ghana. When we adjust the mid tones, then the gain will adjust the highlights. And last we have the offset, we'll we use left with just the dark spots. And we use the gamma will to adjust the mid tones, which are the spots between dark and light. Then we use the gain weight to adjust the highlights, which are the brightest spots. We have two wills in each option. We use the first week to grab the colors. And these fuels are connected to each other. For example, we adjust the colors in the highlights like this. Then we do the same to the midtones and shadows as well. Take a look at the video now. And we click on this arrow here to reset the settings. We have here. The second, we'll use the first week to adjust colors and the seventh week, just the rate of the settings. For example, here we can increase or decrease the highlights. When we adjust the settings, we can see that it's represented on the scopes. And always make sure that the settings are not too high or too low. We can adjust the mid tones here and the shadows from here. So this is the video before the adjustments, and this is after we adjusted it using the brand name is these leaves are very important and we use them to correctly the colors in our videos. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 54. primaries menu third part: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about these settings here. We start with the temp setting. We use the term setting to adjust the temperature of the colors. High temperature is represented with orange and red, and low temperature is represented with blue color. For example, if we increase the temperature, the image will become orange. And if we decrease the temperature, the image becomes blue. The video now looks like it's sharp in a cold place. And in here it looks like it's hot in the desert or someplace. We double-click on the setting to reset it. Next we have here the tent. This allows us to adjust the temperature of the colors on a lower scale. It's represented by green and pink colors. Next we have here the contrast setting. We use it to adjust the contrast of our video. Next we have the pivot setting. We will talk in details later. Finally, we have here the mid detail setting. The setting is very important. It allows us to increase the quality of our video, increase it like this. And you can see the video is more intense now. This is before and this is after. When we increase it, the details and our video becomes more clear. So this is all about these settings and how we can use them. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 55. exposure: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll see how to color correct our videos. And the first thing we will talk about is the exposure and how to set the right amounts of exposure to our variance. We have this value here as an example. We will correct exposure. We start by showing the waveform here. This we can see the exposure. As you can see, the exposure is focused in the center and very low in the top and the bottom. So we need to balance it and we do that using the highlights and the shadows. We go to the primaries menu, specifically the game wheel, which is the highlight. And we increase its levels to increase the exposure in the job here. As you see, the more we increase the highlights here, the more exposure we have here on the top. Now we decrease the shadows. You can see the exposure now. And take a look at the video before and after. In decrease the shadows a bit more. The video looks better now. As you can see, the exposure is in the right amount, lower than 1023 and higher than 0. So this is how we correct the exposure in our videos using the waveform. Now we move to work on another video. You can see that the highlights are set perfectly, but do we need to decrease the shadows? We decrease the shadows. You add the video looks better than before. You don't always have to correct the highlights and the shadows in some videos. In some videos you will only have to predict one of them and sometimes none of them dependent on what you want your video to look like. Use the waveform to read the exposure in your video and take a look at we're setting needs to be adjusted. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 56. auto exposure: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see a different way to correct the exposure in our videos. In the former video we saw how to manually correct exposure. Now we will see an automatic way to do that. We will use the same video we used before. Like I said before, to correct the exposure. We adjust the highlights and the shadows. Will find this icon here in the highlights and the shadows selling a plus sign with a white dot here. And a plus sign with the black dots here. We click on this icon and then we click on the brightest spot in our video. For example, with live here. And as you see, the video is automatically adjusted. Now click on this icon and we click on the darkest spot in the video. For example here. And you add the exposure in our video is corrected automatically. Take a look at the video before and after. You can use this way in all of your videos. You just select the prices spot and the darkest spot in your videos. And in case you thought that description is not the best results, you can then adjust the highlights and the shadows manually to get the results you want. Now we move to work on the next video. Same thing. We click on this icon, then we click on the brightest spot on the video. Then we click on this icon and we click on the darkest spot on the video. Perfect. Or the videos exposure is corrected automatically. You can see this built into them too dark. So we'll fix that by selecting a different spot. For example here. That's a little better. So this is how we can correct the exposure in our videos in an automatic way that I always advise you to use the manual way to get a better and more professional results. But for a quick results, this way is very useful. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 57. white balance: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll see how to fix the white balance in our videos. Now the first thing we saw in the color correction process without the exposure. Now we see how to fix the white balance. First we name this node exposure. Then we add a new node and we name it white balance. This is so this we keep things organized. Now to fix the white balance, we click on the white balance icon in here. As we click on it, it moves from here to the maps. Now we click on a white spot in the video. As you see we have here multiple white spots in our video. Here or here. But this part here is not perfectly white because this spot here presumably reflects the sun. So make sure to select the spots that are supposed to be in white. For example, the white spot in the car or the line on the road here. We slept this white spots in the car here. And you are, the white balance is fixed. The results may not be clear. But if you take a look at the waveform here, you can see the difference before and after we fix the white balance. We will repeat the process and this time we'll click on this white line here. You can see the difference now. Before and after. But the results when we selected the white spot in the car was better. So we select it again. Now we move to another video. If you'd like to keep things organized, make sure to name your notes. Now we select the white balance tool. And we click on this white spots. And here we are. This is the video before and after. So this is how we can fix the white balance in our videos. Now we will see how to fix the white balance manually. We reset the nose is removed. The adjustments we made. We click here and we select bars. We get these settings here that we use to fix the white balance. Now we go to the scopes and we slept parade. From here. You see the colors. You can see the colors are not balanced, so we need to balance them. We do this from here. You just the green color and the blue. Then the red. Now it's good. The colors are balanced. If you look at the video before and after. Now the white color is better at like before the white balance was off in here. You can set the brightness from here. When we adjust the settings, we just did three colors at the same time. We can adjust the shadow from here. So this is how we can fix the white balance manually in our videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 58. contrast and saturation: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see another step in color correction, which is setting the contrast and the saturation. We start by adding a new node. We name is contrast and saturation. Now we'll increase the contrast in our video. We don't increase too much, we increase it just slightly to get a good result. This is a good result here. You can increase it to get the results you like. Like I said, just make sure to not increase it too much. Take a look at the waveform. If we increase the contrast too much, it shows on the waveform. So we need to keep it within range below 1023 and higher than 0. That is a safe range. Now we move to work on the saturation. We increase the saturation. Take a look at the car color before and after we increase the saturation. The color is more saturated and feels more alive. So this is how we correct the contrast and desaturation in our videos. Look at the video before and after. Now we will work on the next video. We add a new node. Increase the contrast. You can see the video is looking different now. We adjust the saturation as well. When you increase the saturation, you need to pay attention to some colors in your video. For example, as you can see, the red color here is too saturated. Especially here. Same thing for the green color in here. So make sure to keep things balanced. Now the video looks good. The red color and the green color as separated perfectly. Look at the video before and after. So now the saturation and the contrast or corrected. Like I said before, make sure to keep your saturation and contrast within the safe range. You can see the video is way better than before. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 59. curves: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll talk about the curves menu and how to use it in color correcting our videos. We have here the curves histogram. We have multiple histograms here, each with its own purpose. This is the menu here. We have custom, us hue. You've said UBS, loon, loon via set, set the set and set V as Loon. We will cover each one in detail in the coming videos. In here we have the RGB colors. Now in histogram, we have here two main dots. The top one represents the highlights and the lower one represents the shadows. If we lowered the Start Here, we will decrease the highlights. You can see that in the scopes. And if we put it here, we increase the highlights. Now we'll put it back to its default place. And in here we have the shadows. Like I said, we put this dot here, we increase the shadows. And if we pull it up here, we decrease the shadows in the video. In the middle here we have the midterms. There's no dove in here, but you can add one. You click on the line to the data. And we can use it to just the micelles. Micelles are the spots between the highlights and the shadows. The highlights are shown up here in the scope and the shadows are down here. If you want to reset everything, you click on this arrow right here. You'll notice that we have multiple colors in the histogram here. And these are the colors shown here. The main colors, red, blue, green, and white. When we adjust the histogram, we are editing all the colors. But let's say this. We want to adjust the single color, the color red, for example. Unlink the colors from here. Then we select the color red. And now we can adjust it low. And we can select any color suggested separately. Now we have the colors that one more thing, I would remove the dots, we added two, just the mid-tones. Now if we adjusted the highlights, we are adjusting the mid tones as well. So to make sure that when you adjust the highlights or the shadows, the mid tones, the add a dot in the middle. Now you can adjust the shadows any way you like without affecting the metals. We have the highlights up here than the mid tones in the middle and the shadows down here. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 60. hue vs hue: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the uveitis here in the curves. You access the USU by clicking here, or you can select it from this menu. We use the USU to adjust colors. When you are at the USU and you hover over the media player, you will see the mouse icon is changed to this icon. This allows us to select any color we want just by clicking on it. For example, we click here and the color is selected. Now why is the color here? Let's do three dots instead of just one. These three dots represent the gradients of the color. The color is based between these two dots here, and we use the middle data to change the color. We can select another color. This one, for example. It is selected. And we use the middle dot to adjust it. You can broaden the gradients range of the selected color if you want. We can select any color we want. To unselect any color. We right-click on the data room of it. And if we want to unselect all the colors at once, we click right here. The color red is represented on both sides here. If we select it, you can see the first dot here and the other here. So now this is not the middle done. This is, and we use it to adjust the color. We need to widen the gradient range to change the whole color. That's better. We have here another video to work on. We will change the color of this car. We click on the cartilage, left its color. Now if we change the color like this, you can see that we still have some green spots on the car. So we need to widen the gradient range of the color. We keep going until there are no more green spots. We are now the whole car color is changed. Like I said, the wider the gradient Grange do better. If we narrow it a bit like this, we will get some unwanted color spots in here. So make sure to widen it as far as possible. Now sometimes when we change the color of an object, we will have other objects in the image or the video that are in the same car or close to the color we are changing and it will be changed as well. So make sure to pay close attention. You can select colors manually. For example, we have the color green. So we put the first dot here, the second one here, and we put the middle dots in here. Then we change the color. And we adjust the gradient, cringe until we get the results we want. So this is how we use the USU in the curves to adjust colors. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 61. hue vs saturation: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the UPS set. To access it, we click on the third dot here, which lets us set from this menu. Now we use this page to adjust the color saturation in our videos. It works in the same way as the USU. We select the color, we want to adjust its saturation. For example, the color red. You can see it's selected and we use the metadata. Is saturation. Increased, its saturation. Take a look at it before and after. Now instead of green color, we increase the saturation. This is before, and this is after. The colors are more saturated. Now, we can decrease the color saturation as well. This allows us to create a certain scene or given a certain feeling, pale colors gives us a sense of seconds and saturated colors look alive and gives us a sense of happiness and optimism. Now we move to work on another video, which led to the green color. We increase its saturation and the grass looks better now. We select the blue color as well and we increase its saturation. Same thing here. This is the video before and after. We use the youth is set to adjust the saturation of the colors in our variance. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 62. hue vs luma: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the uterus luma. In here we can adjust the luminance in our videos. We start by selecting the color red. And it will pull up the middle dot to increase its luminous. Or we pull it down to decrease the luminance. Same thing for the green color. We selected an increase or decrease its luminous. We move to the next video. We select the green color and we increase its luminous. In the UV is set when we increase the saturation, the grass lock screen and more alive, but in the UV is low. When we increase the luminance, the grass looks pale. So we use the UV is known to increase or decrease the colors dominance in our videos. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 63. luma vs saturation: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll talk about the luminance versus saturation. We use it to adjust the saturation of the luminance and our video. You can see that this histogram is different than the ones we saw before. We have the shadows here. On the left. We have the highlights. On the right. We have the mid tones in the middle here. Now if we increase the highlights, you can see that this area here is more saturated. And if we decrease the highlights, skylights less blue. So this guy here represent the highlights but a bright spot. And here we have a dark spot or shadows, but if we increase the shadows, you can see the building becomes more saturated. And if we decrease, it will decrease the saturation of the building. So this is how we adjust the saturation in bright and dark spots. And this is a very important tool to use to make your video more professional. We have the midterms in the middle. We add a dot here, and we adjust the midtone spot here. This is the mid-tone spot in our video and you can see how it changes. So this is how we can adjust the saturation of the highlights and shadows in our videos. Now you may think that these menus are all the same, but if you've tried them and give them a goal, you will get the hang of it. And now each menu and what it's used for. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you on the next video. 64. saturation vs saturation: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the set fit a set which we use to adjust the saturation and our videos. We have on the left here the least saturated spots in the video. And on the right, we have the most saturated spots individually. Venice and saturation in your videos, you increase the saturation in the dark spots like this. And here we have a balanced situation in our video. Some videos may have dark spots and more saturated spots that we can balance the saturation like this. We can decrease the saturation in the bright spots like this to make sure that the video saturation is balanced perfectly. This is simple to just advance the situation in our videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 65. saturation vs luma: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the saturation versus Luminal many. We use it to adjust the luminance of the saturation and our videos. Same as we saw with the former menu. We use it to control the details in the video as well. For example, the less luminous we have here, the better despite details will look. If we increase the luminance of the details will disappear from here. We use this menu to just imbalance the luminance of the saturation in our videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 66. qualifier: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the qualifier. To access the quantifier, we click here. We get these settings here. We have the hue, saturation and luminance. Now we use the qualifier for a lot of things. One of them is to adjust character skin. In our videos, we have multiple menus here. We have HSL, the RGB, the luminance, and 3D. We will talk about the HSL, which contains these settings here, the hue, saturation and luminance. Now we use the qualifier to select the skin color and we use the huge set its gradients range. For example, we can see the gradients and the color of this character's skin here. Next we have the color saturation. And down here we have its luminance. We use the picker tool to select the color. Picker, subtract, remove colors, and the picker edge, add more colors. Then we have here the match Venus. We use it to adjust the color we selected. Now let's say, for example, that we want to adjust the color of this character. We use the picker to select the skin color. Select the color. You can see here in the note that we have only a part of the face selected. We click here to see the selected parts. As you can see, we haven't selected the whole face. And to fix that, we need to widen the color range. So we click on the picker and we select these parts to add them. Perfect. Now we have selected the color range. We can adjust the range from here as well. We adjusted until we get the range we like. Perfect. We can just saturation as well to get the results we want. We said the luminance as well. You can always use the picker, subtract, remove a color that you don't need. Just be careful sometimes you might remove more than you want. Now that we have selected the color, we will use the match VNets to finish all the adjustments. First of all, click on highlights BW to see the colors in black and whites. Now we still have some spots that we need to fix. We need this whole area to be white and this whole area to be black. So we increase the d noise. Then we use the clean black to play in the black area. Here we are. These white spots here are fading away. Next we use the clean white to remove the black spots in the white area. Next we have the blur, the blur radius. We use it at a bit of blur. And we have here the odds ratio. We want to use it. Now we click on highlight difference to go back to the normal look. And now we have selected the character skin and we can change the color or adjust the saturation and without affecting the background here. Now if we want just the background with luckier to reverse the process. And now we can adjust the background color. We go back to the character. Now we can adjust the highlight, the saturation or the hue. So it just highlights slightly. Adjust the saturation. And we just do we use them to just the skin color any way we like. This is just a small example. The character skin did not eat any adjustments. I'm just showing you what we can do using the quantifier. Click here. Now take a look at the skin before and after. So this is how we can select a character's skin and adjust it. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 67. changing grass color using the qualifier: Hello and welcome to this video. We are still talking about the qualifier. And in this video we will work on another example. We will see how to change the color of the grass in this video. We start by using the picker tool to select the color green. We click a to see the candidates were selected. And now we use the picker tool to add the rest of the colors in the video. We adjust the gradient to get a good result. Now we said the saturation and the luminous are, the color is selected. Now we click on highlights VW to see the colors in black and white. Perfect. Now we go back. We showed the whole image, and now we start changing the color of the grass. You can see that we still have some green spots here. We use the beaker add, just let the spots. Perfect. We click Play. And here we are. The grass is in a totally different color now. And of course you can change it to any color you want. You can keep it clean and increase its saturation to make it look more alive or whatever you want. Like we saw before, to reverse the process and apply the changes to the objects, in this case the lioness. We click right here. As you can see, the changes are now applied to Linus and we can change its color any way we like. Just make sure to keep your changes normal. You can change the lightness color to green, for example, there are no green lines. This is so that you can keep your work professional. But of course it's totally up to you. If you want to let your imagination take control, feel free to do whatever you feel good about. You can still make some adjustments. Do whatever he wants. We increase the de-noise, the clean black and the clean white. We had some blur radius. That's perfect. So this is how we use the qualifier to change the color of objects in our video. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 68. qualifier luma: Hello and welcome to this video. We are still talking about the qualifier. This time we will talk about the luma. We select it from here. As you can see, the LUMO looks like the HSL, but if you take a close look, the hue and saturation settings are active in the HSL, but in the luma are not active. We only have the luminance setting active in here. So in here we select the objects using the luminance, not the color. Of course, this only works for certain videos, and not all videos that have dark and bright spots like the video we have here. The lower area is dark and the upper area is bright. So in this video, we will select the sky and change its color. We use the picker to select the sky. To see what was selected. Perfect, the sky is selected and it's in white. And the rest of the video is in black. We adjust the luminance. We increase the clean blood to clean this area. Now the background is separated. Now we can change the color of the sky to any color we want. We can reverse the process to change the color of the city. We stick with change in disguise color only. Like I said, we use the luminance to select the objects. Now since the sky is the brightest parts of the image, we selected it. Like I said before, this tool works for videos that there are difference between dark spots and bright spots in them. So that you can select both objects easily and then change its color or adjusted any way you like. In this case, it was this guy. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 69. qualifier RGB: Hello and welcome to this video. In the former video which talks about the qualifier using the HSL menu. Now in this video we will take a look at the RGB menu. We click here to access it, or we select RGB from here. The RGB is similar to the HSL. Just in the RGB, we use the three main colors, red, green, and blue. In some videos, it's better to use the HSL and in others, it's better to use the RGB. For example, we have this video here. We will work on it using the HSL. We select the color speaker Ed tool to select the rest of the color. Perfect. So by using the HSL, we get this great result here. Especially this, we have not used any of these settings here. Now we would try the same using the RGB. We duplicate the video to work on it. Now we select the color. Take a look at the result. Using the RGB. It's not the same as we got using the HSL. Take a look at HSL results. And here we have the RGB result. So try using the HSL and the RGB and you decide which is the best for you and your videos. Like I said, sometimes one would be better than the other. Now we will work on this video using the RGB. We will change the color of these flowers. Here. We select the color using the picker, replicate to see the yellow color only. Then we widen the color red range and the green color as well. Then the blues. Perfect. We have molecules here that we can use to soften the edges and more just the settings to get the result as we want. What's important is the result. There are multiple ways that we can use to get the same results. Now we click on highlights VW to see the colors in black and white. And we set the clean blood and the clean whites. Then we change the color of the flowers. You can select any color you want. So this is how we use the RGB to change colors in our videos. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 70. qualifier 3D: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the qualifier 3D menu. To exit the treaty. We click here or we slept 3D from here. We have the same settings here as the former menus, but in here we have nothing. Now we will use the 3D tool to replace the green screen. We use the picker to click on the green screen. Here it appears the color that was selected. We click on highlights VW to separate the character from the green screen. Now as you see here in the node, we have removed the character, not the green screen. So we click here to reverse the process and remove the green screen. We will change the background and there will be some leftovers from the green screen that we will clean later. We go back. We go to the edit interface. We pull this video up here. We put it on the top track. And we put below it the background. The background that we want to use. Go back to the color interface. The background is still not visible here. That's because we have to right-click on the node and we select at alpha output. Then willing to denote like this. And here are the green screen is replaced with this background. So this is how we can replace the green screen with any background we want. We have here some green-screen leftovers that we toxic and we need to clear them. So we clear them using the settings menu we have here. We are the argon. The video looks perfect now. So this is how we use the 3D menu in the qualifier to replace the green screen with any background we want. That's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 71. the window menu: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll see how to color correct parts of our video instead of the whole video. Because sometimes you may not want to adjust the whole video, just some parts of it. For example, we want to adjust this built-in loan. So we start by selecting the Window menu. We get this menu here with all these shapes. We will take a look at each one of them. We have first the rectangle shape. You can see in the node, the inside of the rectangle is visible while the rest of the image is not. Now, any adjustments we do will be applied to the inside of the rectangle. We can put the rectangle, anyone who wants. It can adjust its size as well. We adjust it to fit with the build and shape. Perfect. Now we make any adjustments. For example, we increase the highlights. And as you can see, the adjustment was applied to the building only. Of course, this is just a random example. Just a random adjustment. As you can see, the Jasmine stands out. So we need to adjust its gradients like this and decrease the adjustments a bit so that it matches the general look of the video. This is what's good about this feature. It helps us set the gradient of the adjustments and soften the edges. And we can reverse the process by clicking here. Now, the adjustment is applied to the whole video except the parts inside the rectangle. The process is reversed. Now, we want to remove the adjustments. We click on the rectangle. Then we click on Delete. Now we will take a look at another video. For example, we want to adjust the face of the character alone. We use the circle. We click on it and we put it on the face and adjusted to fit with the face. Then we start our adjustments, for example, we increase the highlights. Take a look at the video before and after. Again, this adjustment is just an example. And we always use the gradient to soften the edges. Like I said before, we click here to reverse the process. Let's say that we want the background to be a bit darker. We click here to apply the adjustment to the background instead of the face. And we decrease the highlights. Now as you see, the background is darker and the face of the character is intact. We click on the circle to remove the adjustment. Now we move to the next video and we will take a look at the polygon. You may think that it's the same as the rectangle, but it's not with the polygon. We can add dots to wait to change it to any shape we want. For example, we added dots here, then we adjust the shape like this. You do this to select three objects. And then we can make our adjustments. Increase the highlights, or change the colors or whatever we want. Now we will work on the next video, the curves tool. And we use it to select any shape we want. For example, we use it to select this car. You will never can adjust it. Anyway. We want we move to the final video and we select the last tool, the gradient tool. We use it to just any corner of the video. We rotate it like this to select the corners. We can make the corner darker than the other or change its color or whatever we want. Like I said, we rotate the tool to select the corner we want. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 72. stabilizer: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will see how to stabilize our videos. Now some video may be shot in a way that the video will look like it's shaken a bit. So we will see how to fix that. We access this tracker menu. We go to Window and we select stabilizer. This is our video. As you see, it's shaking a bit. Sometimes no matter how still you try to be, your hand will shake while filming. So you will need to fix that using the software. As you can see, the video is shaken a bit. Now we put the cursor at the beginning. Then we collect on stabilized. Here we add the software is analyzing the video. Now it's done. As you can see here, the video is fixed. We click Play, and here we are. The video is stabilized. So this is how we can stabilize our videos. When you stabilize the video, the software would cut apart from the edges of the video to stabilize the video. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 73. window tracker: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about a very important feature that helps us calibrate our videos. The tracker feature. We have this video here as an example. Now, in the former video, we access the Window menu and we use the tools here to calibrate our video. But what if our video moves like this? We need the tools to move and follow the object that we are adjusting. So we use a tracker feature. Let's say that we want to work on the character. We select it. Here it is selected. We put the cursor at the beginning. It's very important to do that. Then we go to the tracker menu. We select window from here, and in here we select the cloud cracker. Then we collect play. The tracking process starts. We put the cursor back here. We click play. And who are the character is selected even while moving. Now increase the saturation. Just the shadow, the contrast. These adjustments are just an example. Take a look at the video before and after. Now when we click Play, you can see that the adjustments follows and stick to the character perfectly. This is how we can adjust moving characters or objects. We go back to the Window menu. As you can see, we have rough edges here, which shows a difference between the character and the background. To fix that, we increase the inside and the outside as well. Now the edges are soft synth. So this is how we can create a moving object and adjusted to cancel all the adjustments we can look here. Same thing in Drucker menu. Like I said before, we use these tools here to select any objects we want in the video. For example, we select the character's face. Then we use a tracker to track the object. In this case the character's face. Here we are. We can adjust the inside and the outside settings from here as well. Then we can make our adjustments. Just the background you right-click here and select Add Node, then select Add outside. As you can see this no chose the selected objects, in this case the character's face. And the second node shows the rest of the video. In this case the character's body and the background. We select the second node. When we make an adjustment, it's applied to the character's body and the background. Here we work on the inside of the tool, and here we work on the outside of it. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 74. blur and sharpening: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we will talk about the blur and the sharpening while putting to work all that we learned in the last videos. Start by going into the Window menu. We make sure that the cursor is at the beginning of the video. Then we select the character. Now we go to Drucker and start cracking the character. We go back and increase the outside and the inside. We separate the character from the background. We add an outside node here. The character and the background are separated. Now, we can adjust the background only now. Now we will use the blur. We select the background node. You go to menu. And we will make the background blurry to look like we are focusing on the character. We select the background note and we go to the blur menu. Then we increase the blur. We click Play. And here we are. Perfect. We can decrease the blur as well to make the background look sharp. In here we have the horizontal and vertical ratio. We use it to set the blurred horizontally or vertically. This effect works better with cars to make it look like the car is speeding. We set the blur from here. Now we select the character. We decrease the blur to make the character very sharp. But make sure that you don't make it too sharp edge may look unnatural. Linkage, unlike the tree RGB colors and adjust each of them individually. In here we have the sharpening. It's the opposite of the burn like we saw. Increases or decreases from here. In here we have the horizontal, vertical ratio and we have here the scaling. So this is how we can make the character and the background blurry or sharp. We use the Window menu, the tracker, and the Blur setting. I will reset the nodes. We put the cursor at the beginning. And we can increase the blur to make the whole video blurry, or decrease it to make the video sharp. So this is how we can make our whole video blurry or sharp. And we can separate objects from the background to make them blurry or sharp as well. So that's it for this video. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video. 75. luts and key: Hello and welcome to this video. In this video we'll talk about the Kimmy new and above. Let's click here to get the last menu. Now the lots are group of color gradient or color corrections and looks that are ready to use. Drag it to the MediaPlayer to apply to your video. As you can see, we have here aces, RE, Blackmagic, Design, PGI, DCI, Sony, etc. These are names of different canons. If you have video that was termed with a certain camera, you select the camera type from here. For example, we select sunny and we have here different slots. We select the one we want and drag it to the video. I don't have the video frames with the S logs, so I can supply to it. Now this helps us to color correct our videos very easily. We just use the same lines as the camera we use to fill our video. We grab the link to the video to color corrected. Since we
