Well done. However, I wished you had explained this step by step for newbies like me. I'm not familiar with the software but will figure out to use it. This tutorials is more for the intermediate to advance user who is familiar with the software.

I had no idea how to make a lyric video. Now I've made two using this method. Thanks!

[Nephastion]

Thanks a lot for investing your time and explaining all these with us viewers. You rock dude

[officialbouleunleashed]

king thank you so much for this .you are masterful at explaining .

[sonicrange]

This one helped me very well! Thank you for that.

Nice trick of reopening the compound clip as a timeline! I was not aware of that feature! Useful as usual Jay!

Dude - Thanks for the tutorial, but My fav part is the complete attention drop at 19:12 when you let it cache & it was like you went to bathroom & left your mic on lol. The stretch at 19:50 is as real as it gets and the awesome beltch at 20:16 made my day, not to mention the subsequent double take and failure to finish explaining the point you were making before all the above lol. I love seeing real life, it's like the outakes, but in real time. Kudos :)

this is really good 2 years later thanks

[friendlyneighbourhood]

Thanks alot !
Just uploaded our very first lyric video using this tutorial.
It's quite fun to play around with how many frames each transition to the next line is.. You can make it be on beat or bring out some musical highlights in the song :)

Thank you! Your tutorial was clear and easy to follow. I was able to add lyrics in my video with ease!

[shorerocks]

Wow. As a musician with countless lyric videos (most unreleased), this is super interesting. Thank you. Though that first line killed me - 'It's just text over a background video'. Yeah, it is. But a truly good lyric video is art in itself, and this is were I am struggling. But then I am animating word for word, not even line by line, often enough.

[sureshbsany]

Thanks. I did my first lyrics Video with your tutorial.

Hey, could you do a video on basic editing keybinds to speed up editing? watching you set up the edit, there's clearly some keybindings I could learn.

[ErickMcNerney]

Couldn't you just add in text as the lyrics come in the regular editing window (through edit fx and text or text+?). This is really cool, but it also seems really complicated.

[mugumebenjamin]

thanks Men have been waiting for this for

[Wolf-E-Romeo]

Thanks for this video!

I did run into an issue at the start though, I'm new to DaVinci, so maybe there was something I could have done otherwise.

I created my video and made it into a compound clip, then went to fusion and did the lyrics (I believe they were also connected like you showed at the end, ) then went back to edit and they weren't showing. THEN I went back to fusion to make sure things were connected correctly just in case, but it was all gone. However back in the edit tab, it had the twinkle on the video to show that it had fusion there.

I ended up rendering out the video completely, then opening a new project and adding the lyrics to that new video. That way worked out.
(I have it uploaded on my channel currently. It's the Pompeii by Bastille.)


I just don't know why the main video, unrendered, didn't want to attach to fusion to start with. Then why did fusion get rid of any work I worked on even if it wasn't attached??
Is that typical?

[iamsammybe]

i think there is a missing step or information about how to get the text to scroll... i can come up with some ways to do this but, it'd be nice to know your method since it seems like you must have edited out the part where you set that up.
