Imagine editing a video about editing a video...Anyways, BIG VALUE!

[paris_mars]

I can't believe this software is free. Things like this, Blender, Unity, Unreal Engine, and so on are absolutely incredible.
Not to mention the free educational videos like this tutorial that are available on free sites like Youtube.

This is one of the best tutorial videos I have seen. Direct, to the point, solid information and no BS. Thanks!

[PhoenixNat]

Thank you! Da Vinci was so overwhelming I'd been putting it off - all I wanted was simple straight forward video to allow me to export a basic first video to get me going and uploading something, rather than feeling like I've weeks of learning to produce one video, this was spot on! It now seems like a beast I can take on, slowly.

I've been into Resolve for about 6 months. Love the program but like Photoshop, one must pay their dues, dig in, and learn how to use this amazing program. I have watched many tutorials along this journey but I must say, yours, this simple beginner piece, is one of the best. Obviously, you've put a huge amount of effort into this tut. Kudos for that.Your teaching style is one of the best on YT. Now that I've found your channel, I'll be back. Thanks, again, Justin.

[mimmycal]

omg. finally. I watched this 2 years ago...totally overwhelmed. I gave up This time...I am doing it. After researching Premiere and FCP 10 all day yesterday --- forget it . I will learn and use Da Vince. Thank you mucho!!!
