Why learn DaVinci Resolve?

DaVinci Resolve is used for editing cinematic videos, from feature movies to YouTube vlogs. It's easy to use for personal projects, but it also offers you a lot of professional tools for bigger projects such as commercials or movies. DaVinci gives you all of the tools you'll ever need within ONE single software! You don't need to change between software when editing in DaVinci, inside the program, you have Tabs for anything you want! You've got the "Media Tab", "Cut Tab", "Edit Tab", "Fusion Tab", "Color Tab", "Fairlight Tab" and the "Deliver Tab"!

Also, DaVinci Resolve is totally free! There is a premium feature, but you won't lose that much by using the free version!

Accent is tough to understand at times. Also, even if you don't use the audio tab, it's good to have a section on it for someone who's paid the fee for the class.

By Marten Grevenstuk on 11/9/2023

Volgorde lesstof OK. Instructies met teveel Uhhh's. Stem som slecht te verstaan. Engelse ondertiteling niet gelijk aan hetgeen verteld wordt. Audio met een irritante ruis/piep/hizzz op de achtergrond. Lijkt me niet echt professioneel opgezet en nabewerkt.

By Sigma edry on 6/21/2023

Basic you need to know, inspiring to make project

By Ronald Schmidt on 5/13/2023

The instructor seems knowledgeable but since English isn’t his first language he is a little choppy in his presentation so I have to rewind every once in a while to listen again. Maybe others don’t need to. I like the order he is going in so far.

By Braduțanu Adrian on 12/11/2022

I really like it,very good explanation

By Babak Haleky on 10/26/2022

This was the second Davinci course I took on Udemy. I used this as a review, but found it more informative than the first one.

By Lia on 9/18/2022

Good and clear explanation.

By Rogelio Muñoz Cerdán on 8/17/2022

There is not much value on the course, even the footage to practice is not that good for the examples, you can learn a lot more from youtube tutorials, there is nothing to learn outside the basic conceps and basic tools of Resolve, and even then, the couse doesnt seems to have an especific route to follow, the creator seems to improvise from one video to another as it seem from the excesive rambling everytime he has to use a new button For an editing course, its not very well edited, i have no doubt he knows at some extents what he does, but definetly doesnt know how to present that

By Bùi Khoa Nguyên on 6/8/2022

The author's instructions are very detailed, simple, and easy to understand for beginners. I love this way of teaching, and recommend taking the course!

By Daniel Jacobs on 5/9/2022

Great Course! Very well explained, and very detailed! I didn't know anything about DaVinci before taking this course, but now it seems like I can truly do my own project, and the best part is that DaVinci seems pretty easy right now. Thank you once again, Marius!
