Using DaVinci Resolve
34
Trim your clips by dragging their start and end points left or
right. The 'snapping' feature can be turned off when making
fine adjustments.
The transitions palette contains many types of
transition effects.
Step 2. When the trim icon appears, click on the start of your clip and drag it forwards or backwards
to trim the in point. Watch the timeline monitor as you trim to find the edit point.
Step 3. Now click and drag the end of your clip to adjust the out point.
The zoom slider is located underneath the timeline. By dragging the slider left and right you can
zoom in and out of your timeline to make fine adjustments.
Turning the 'snapping' feature off is handy when fine tuning edits, but it's a helpful feature to keep
your clips held tightly against each other, so it's worth turning back on once you're done. Press the
'N' key to quickly turn snapping on or off.

Mapping Keyboard Shortcuts

If you are familiar with keyboard shortcuts using other editing software, you can easily map your own
in DaVinci Resolve to increase speed and optimise your workflow.
To map your own keyboard shortcuts:
Step 1. Click on the project setting 'gear' icon at the bottom left of your DaVinci workspace, then
select keyboard mapping from the settings list.
Step 2. Select the shortcut you want to change from the categories provided, for example timeline
cut and paste shortcuts will be in the 'edit' category.
Step 3. Click on the shortcut once to highlight the setting. Double click on the shortcut to enable
the change.
Step 4. Press your new shortcut keys on the keyboard. If you make a mistake you can easily undo
the change by clicking the 'undo' icon next to the setting.
Step 5. Click save to confirm your new shortcut setting.

Adding Transitions

A transition is a visual effect used to bridge one clip to another in a pleasing way, for example dissolves,
wipes, dips to color, and more. These can add a layer of excitement to your edit. Transitions don't
always have to be joining two clips, for example you can apply a dissolve transition to the end of one
clip to create a quick and easy fade to black.
To add a dissolve transition between two clips:
Step 1. Make sure there are two clips edited tightly together on the timeline. Go to the toolbox in
the 'effects library' located below the media pool and you'll see the 'transitions' palette.
