The content we use to make our videos, including pictures, video clips, and even sound files, will be in there. We can see the words ‘No clips in media pool.’ underlined in red. There are a huge amount of options and features, and it’s okay to ignore almost all of them right now. We’re going to do almost everything in the ‘Edit’ page. The ones we want to focus on are ‘Media,’ ‘Edit,’ and ‘Deliver.’ Those are all you need for now. The one here is the ‘Cut’ page which is what defaults when we open things up. There are seven icons, each of which is a separate page of the program. No matter what, look down to the bottom of the screen. It’s been so long since that first boot-up of the program that we’re not exactly sure which page pops up first. Where do we even start? To make things worse, you might even be looking at a completely different setup. The program will then open up into a complicated daunting window filled with stuff. Once you get going and make a lot of projects, they’ll start to have boring names, so get some fun ones in while you can! Choose the option to start a new project. If you love the program or you want those features, feel free to give back. It’s likely we’ll do it just because of how well the program has done for us. There is an option to pay more for more features, but we haven’t done that as we haven’t needed to. Just for the record, none of us are affiliated with DaVinci/Black Magic in any way, work for them, or any of that. You can download it here (scroll down until you find it), but if you’re skeptical about a link (not a bad idea) just type ‘Davinci Resolve free download’ into your search browser and go from there. Prefer a video version of this tutorial? We did one! You can find it here!įirst, get yourself the program. We want your feedback, so we can make it better for you! *Disclaimer – This is not trying to be the best tutorial out there, and there are probably better ways to do some of this stuff, but it will get you past that first hump and into the world of editing! If you are a Parent or a Teacher, this tutorial is for you. It’s free, and it’s actually pretty easy to use. Yes, DaVinci Resolve is complicated, yes it can be scary to try and learn, and yes the interface looks like the controls of an airplane. You might still be using it years from now, where a lot of apps come and go. And so can you, if you’re a Parent or Teacher. They can grow into it, and start learning an industry tool. Why? Because your budding filmmakers can use DaVinci for all of their filmmaking needs. And why even use them? There are plenty of stop-motion apps and programs out there, and many are pretty kid-friendly. If you’ve seen these programs, or seen someone using them, they might look a bit scary. A couple of us got Premiere years ago, before it was a subscription, otherwise we’d probably all be using DaVinci. We use both DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere here at Barigord Studios. DaVinci Resolve! It’s an editing program that can be used to make all kinds of different films, including stop-motion!
