People who make tutorials are a gift to mankind

Coming from iMovie, I was so overwhelmed with all the features da Vinci has to offer. Thank's for your tutorial - I wish I had found it earlier.

I just learned about Davinci Resolve about 30 minutes ago (I was trying to find an alternative to Premiere because it's just way too much for me). Found this video and I'm super impressed. I have a hard time learning these programs and you break down the basics so well. Thank you for making this video.

I’ve just started using Davinci Resolve and this video has got to be the best introduction video for new starters to date. Many thanks

Just got done with my first 90 minutes on the program. This was super helpful and well edited.

[kazimierzg]

Thank you so much, I was looking for exactly this!

[KnobiTobi]

A video for the super basics for beginners!!!! Perfect and not that long! THANKS a lot

[roscosity]

This was SUCH a concise guide to jumping in and starting, wonderful stuff Ben!

Some additional thoughts, when I followed your steps with a new install of DR 18.6 on my Windows 10 machine, some of the panels you showed were not visible by default and I really struggled to find how to display them. These questions are SO basic that no-one bothers to answer them anywhere.

For example, the "Control Room" panel was extremely hard to find. I eventually found it:
Workspace > Show Panel in Workspace > Meters

Similarly, I couldn't find the Audio options for trying dialogue levelling, until I figured out I needed the Inspector selected on the top right.

So a basics video is incredibly helpful, until there's something different between your interface and what we see, and then we're completely screwed. Something to consider for next time. Thanks again.

Absolutely superb tutorial! Thank you a million. I spent a day trying to get started in Pr and simply had enough. DaVinci is exactly the way I would design a video editing software.

Excellent video! I have not ever electronically edited a video, when I was in high school (1970s) we edited 16mm film by literally cutting and splicing. My son has edited with DaVinci Resolve and is going to coach me. Your video is very helpful and encouraging - now I'm not scared to try. I fly as a hobby and I've started taking an action camera along.

[mikegobig]

Fantastic job providing a FAST look at what it's like to use Resolve. Thank you.

[merlinwalden]

Thank you so much dude! Very simple - very helpful :D

[TheMayasWay]

Your video was literally only one thing what i needed to make my first video. Easy to follow steps. Explained well. Thank you for that.

[unlurn]

Straight to the point and straight to edit window. When I first opened da vinci all the tabs were super confusing and adds to the learning curve. Thanks for cutting through all the windows and starting the project right there in the edit.

[benoitroberge]

Just downloaded Davinci and this was super helpful. Thanks!

[nicholausg]

The tutorial is easy to understand, thanks Ben!

[lanah_tyra]

Very clear and straight to the point, thank you! I was using Premier Pro and Vegas before, just wanted a quick walkthrough to familiarise myself with DaVinci Resolve's layout and this guide was perfect for it.

[angelgrace]

Thank you so much for this video! Im brand new to Davinci Resolve and was looking to learn and get a project out ASAP! You made it so easy to follow along, step by step! I was able to get this Youtube project edited and sent out all in one night! Thanks a million!

[larabaldie]

I'm just starting my YouTube journey and decided to switch from iMovie to DaVinci and was so overwhelmed, this was helpful thank you! lets hope it goes well 😂
