Using DaVinci Resolve

Introducing DaVinci Resolve

Shooting with your Blackmagic Design camera is only part of the process of creating television
content, and just as important is the process of media backup and management as well as editing,
color correction and encoding final master files. Your camera includes a version of DaVinci Resolve
for Mac OS X and Windows so you have a complete solution for shooting and post production!
After connecting your SSD, SD Card or CFast card to your computer, you can use DaVinci Resolve's
media management to create running backups as you shoot. This is recommended as any type of
media is susceptible to becoming damaged or developing a fault so backup ensures your shots will
be immune to loss. Once you have used DaVinci Resolve to back up your media, you can then load
your clips into the DaVinci media pool, then edit, color correct, and finish your production without
ever having to leave DaVinci Resolve.
Because Blackmagic Design cameras shoot a much wider dynamic range than regular video cameras,
DaVinci Resolve will help you adjust your shots to get any kind of look you are after. DaVinci Resolve is
the same tool used on most major blockbuster movies, so it's much more than a simple NLE software
tool, as it has extremely advanced technology built in for high end digital film. You get the advantage
of this technology when you use DaVinci Resolve to edit and color correct your work.
Included here is information on how to get started using DaVinci Resolve with your camera files. Of
course, DaVinci Resolve is extremely advanced and includes a lot more features than you immediately
see when first looking at its user interface. To learn more about how to use DaVinci Resolve, please
check for the DaVinci Resolve instruction manual pdf file on the DaVinci Resolve software disk, or
check online for the many training courses and tutorial videos available.

Importing your Clips

To start editing your clips, you'll first need to import them into the media pool:
Step 1. Launch DaVinci Resolve. If this is the first time you've opened DaVinci Resolve, click on
the 'plus' icon at the bottom left of the log in window and create a new user. Log in and
double click on 'untitled project' in the project manager window.
Step 2. You'll now see the 'media' page with a library window at the top left. The library window
displays all your linked media folders from where you'll drag your clips and drop them into
the media pool.
If your clip folder doesn't appear in the library, you'll need to add it. This is easily done
by clicking on preferences in the DaVinci Resolve title bar and clicking on the 'plus' icon
in the 'media storage' tab, browse to and select a drive or folder path, click 'save', restart
DaVinci Resolve and reopen 'untitled project' to refresh the media storage settings.
