Adding Titles
You can place a title on any video track just as you would a clip. If you run out of tracks you can
easily add new ones by right clicking next to an existing track name and selecting 'add track'.
To create a title:
1
Scroll down towards the middle of the toolbox in the 'effects library' located underneath
the media pool and you'll see the 'titles' generators. Use the scroll bar to reveal more
'titles' options.
2
Drag and drop a text title on the empty video track above the clip you want the title
to appear. You can even drop your title next to a clip on Video 1 if you just want it to
appear over black. To see the title, make sure the timeline playhead is on the title.
3
Double click on the title clip. The 'inspector' will appear showing you the settings for
your title. Type your title into the 'text' field.
You can choose from a variety of fonts and adjust the appearance of your title by changing
settings such as color, size, alignment, position, and more. Transitions can be added to titles,
just like they can for clips.
Drag a title type from the 'titles' palette and drop it on an empty track
Color Correcting your Clips
Once you have edited your sequence of clips, you can start color correcting. This is best begun
after you have finished editing your sequence so you can maintain a consistent look, but part of
the fun of DaVinci Resolve is being able to move between the edit and color page to make fine
adjustments and discover new creative choices.
With the 'color' page you get absolute control over the look of your clips
