 OTAN, Outreach and Technical Assistance Network. Anthony mentioned that we're going to be doing DaVinci Resolve and video editing. I noticed that Linda, minor, applauded. Linda, do you do video editing? Yeah, I teach a video editing class using online resources is the title. But we've never used anything as complex as DaVinci. But you know about DaVinci Resolve. Oh, great. Great. Thank you. Thank you. No, I don't know it yet. So I'm contemplating, do I want to get that complex? Okay. That's why I'm here. Okay. Fantastic. Thank you for coming. Anybody else? I just want to get an idea of the audience so that I can tailor my presentation to, to you. If you're all beginners or some, some more technically intermediate or advanced. Do we have anyone else who does video editing? I'm Paul. The only thing I've used is screencastify. It's taken over my life. And, you know, I'm limited and I thought, ooh, I'm kind of curious what this is. Right. Cause we seem to be making a lot of videos for the teachers and Karen. I'm so glad to hear it. Okay. First of all, the exciting thing is DaVinci Resolve is state of the art. Okay. It's, it's, it's state of the art, Hollywood. Post production. And it's, it's, there's a version that's for free. Okay. And it's, it can be very, very complex in the things that it can do. It can work magic. And it could also be very simple. Good. My language. And I want you to think about it in terms of like a, for example, a Microsoft word. Right. I use Microsoft word, but there are only 30 buttons that I know, right? Like bold, indent, underline, choose your font, choose your, and, and I've been using Microsoft word for 25 years, but I've only, I only know 30 buttons, all those other things. So just keep that in mind. That's the frame of mind we're going to start from. Okay. You're going to be overwhelmed by the options and the choices, but you just need to know. Maybe 30 to 50 buttons, depending on how much to get started. Okay. So here we go. All right. Thank you for joining me. And I'm very happy to see you guys here. This is the creating and editing videos in the venture resolve webinar. Okay. So today I'm going to walk you through the software. And it's not really, it's more of an introduction, what we're going to be doing today and a demonstration of the software. And we're going to do that by turning a CTE classroom exercise into a video lesson. Okay. And in the process, I want you to see what the possibilities are and start thinking about how you might use the venture resolve to produce interesting visually engaging content for your class. Okay. It's not so much of a technical webinar today, but an introduction. However, I will give you enough tips to get started. Okay. So as with any kind of a program, we always have to start with some system requirements, right? So for DaVinci resolve, they have three versions. One that runs on Mac windows and Lennox. The base requirement that the company black magic design that makes DaVinci resolve requires 16 gigabytes of RAM. You might not have four gigabytes of video RAM. And 250 gigabytes of hard drive. You might not have eight gigabytes of RAM, but I think you might not have 16, but I think you might, if you have eight gigabytes, that might be enough. Okay. Because DaVinci resolve is designed to, to be used for a very large video files. For example, the videos that I'm going to be used today were shot on my iPhone. Okay. They were shot on my iPhone. And I'm using my eight year old. I Mac. And it works fine. Okay. So. DaVinci resolve. Is made. By a company called black magic design. Let's go to the next slide. Okay. I'm going to open my browser. And I'm going to type in a black magic design. Dot com black. And because I've used it before. It's already popped up right here. Okay. And. This is their homepage. As you can see, they make a lot of hardware. If you scroll down. You'll see introducing DaVinci resolve 17 right here. I'm going to open my browser and I'm going to type in a black magic design. You'll see introducing DaVinci resolve 17 right here. Okay. So I'm going to click on this. And there's a fabulous introduction here. To DaVinci resolve. We're not going to watch this whole thing. I'm just going to come down and show you that. It's right here. Download now. This is how much they want you to use it. Okay. If you click on this. Here you sit. You'll see two versions. The latest version is a 17. And you decide if you want it on your Mac windows or Linux machine. Okay. This one is free. This is the studio version that you have to pay about $300 for. And the studio version includes things that you will never use. For example, if you see here says. 3d tools. Right. We're not going to be making any 3d tools. But we're not going to be making 3d tools. Okay. Now there's a lot about that. So if you click for example, I'm on a Mac. So I would click this. And all you have to do is fill out your name. And. Maybe answer these two questions. Register and download. And you're good to go. Okay. So what, what is DaVinci resolve? Here's the exciting thing. About this program. 15 years ago. corrector a color grading system. That means they work on the color aspect of a video production and it was $5,000. But this company, Blackmagic Design, you see their logo here on the upper right, they bought it and they added a host of other features. Here you can see there's a media page. There's a cut page and the edit page, these two are for editing. There's a fusion page for special effects. There's a color page for color grading and color correction. And there's a fairlight page for audio mixing and recording. And the delivery page is where you output your finished video, okay? So this company bought it, the venture resolve and expanded on it is making it available to the public because they want to expand the use of it, okay? So here are some of the features. We're gonna look at the edit page. This is the edit page. This is where we're gonna spend the majority of our time today, okay? We're gonna import a video. We're gonna learn how to mark clips. Mark clips means to set your in and out points for that section of the video that you want. We're gonna talk about these seven ways to edit your clips. Insert, overwrite, replace, fit to fill, place on top, append at end, ripple overwrite. And we're gonna talk, go over these trimming tools, okay? And again, I just wanna emphasize that although I will go through these features with you, if they're a little bit over your head, don't worry about it. I want you to look at the overall presentation today more than the specifics to see what is possible. And I'm gonna give you more tools at the end of the webinar, how you can learn these skills and how you can perfect these skills, okay? So we're gonna go through all of this today, transitions, titles, okay? This is the color page and this is where you will be doing your color correction and color balancing, color grading. And this is what DaVinci Resolve is known for. Out of all the television shows you watch, all the feature films on Netflix, Disney, over 60% of them are color graded with this software application, okay? This is the fusion page. We're not gonna talk about this today. This is something I'll let you explore on your own, but you can see this example here. What's going on is they're doing compositing with a 3D model, okay? So this is very advanced stuff and I'll give you a little glimpse into it but we won't be delving into that today, okay? This is the Fairlight page and this is where you can build your audio tracks, you can record and mix the sound, okay? The media page is where you bring in your media and you output your clips, okay? So at the very top here, you can see there's an introduction to every aspect of DaVinci Resolve, including hardware but notice here on the upper right, a training tab, okay? This is really fantastic stuff, okay? DaVinci Resolve has produced these videos that teach you how to edit the art of color grading. This one you don't need because it's for people who have purchased this mini panel, okay? But visual effects and graphics, visual effects in 3D, audio production, you can download, you can watch the video file here or you can download the video and the project files and follow along. So if you wanna learn the details, you can do this on your own time. Today is a general introduction to show you what's possible, okay? So that's DaVinci Resolve. I'm going to launch the program here while I talk about the next thing, okay? So I'm gonna launch DaVinci Resolve. What are you gonna learn today? We're gonna import an export video. We're gonna go through some video editing basics, create some titles, transitions, color, record narration, we're gonna do a basic sound mix. This is the whole process you would go through to make a polished video. And we're gonna do it with a real world project that I did for a class of mine, okay? I am currently an IET instructor. I am partnered with a CTE cosmetology teacher at my school. She teaches the career technical, the CTE cosmetology class. I am the ESL teacher. I help my students with the academic and language skills. She gave her students an assignment to partner up, choose a salon service, write out the steps and perform them. So the students decided to do makeup and these were the steps to accomplish the task that they outlined, okay? Cleanse the skin with aloe vera wipes is the first step, right? So while they were doing the makeup process, I videotaped it with my iPhone, okay? So you can start making videos with your iPhone, okay? So here, the Vittorio Resolve has opened up. I'm gonna start a new project, okay? This is an untitled project. So I'm just gonna double click on it. This is the menu that is offered to you after you launched the program. I'm gonna click untitled project. And here, throughout this training, I understand that your video screen might look very big and it might be hard to follow along but I'm gonna be shaking my cursor. Can everyone see my cursor? I wanna, and I wanna be directing your attention. I might say, look at the top of the screen. Look at the left of the screen. Look at the upper left corner, the upper right corner or the bottom, okay? And I'm gonna be shaking my screen. So look for my vibrating cursor, okay? So right now, I wanna direct your attention to the bottom of the screen. You can see, here are the tabs to the different pages of the software that the website showed us. Media, Cut, Edit, Fusion, Color, Fairlight, and Deliver. Okay, so this is the first page. The media page is where we're gonna bring in our media, where we're gonna import the media, okay? On the upper left corner, the Venture Resolve automatically locates all the hard drives you have on your computer or that you have connected to your computer. So I have all my hard drives here. I'm gonna go to the one where my video is, okay? And it happens to be here, the IET video hard drive, okay? As you can see, it's right here, connected to my computer via USB3, and it shows up here in the Venture Resolve, okay? So I'm gonna find the videos that I recorded of my students doing the makeup exercise. This is the first one and this is the last one. Okay, so I've selected all the videos that I shot that day and I'm just gonna drag it into this media pool. Now all the videos are in my project. It's that simple, okay? It's that simple to import media. You're on your media page, you find your hard drive and the folder where the videos are, highlight them and just drag them into the media pool, okay? And now you can work with them. The first page is the cut page, okay? The cut page was just added recently a few years ago and it's basically editing, okay? It's where you edit. But there's also another one called the edit page and they do the similar things. They're similar. Supposedly the edit page has a few features that will help you accelerate your workflow to meet tight deadlines. I'm used to the edit page so I'm just gonna stick with that but if you want to, you can start editing your videos here. As you can see, once you import the media from the media page, they automatically appear on the cut page and I'm gonna go to the edit page because that's what I prefer. If I go to the edit page and I look here at the media pool on the upper left corner, you can see a selection of tabs. One of them is media pool. I click on that and all the videos are here, okay? If I looked at the first video, this is the first step that the students did to perform the makeup exercise and just as a reminder, what was the first step? Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes, okay? So I have my source window on the left, okay? And I'm just gonna randomly, when you can scroll through the whole video clip through this timeline at the bottom and you decide what part of the clip do I want to use? Okay, you decide by setting it, say, I wanna start my clip here. I can set an end point here. I can click this and I'm gonna play and I'm gonna click out point here. So as you can see, I'm gonna use this portion of this clip because I've set an end point here and I've set an out point here by clicking these two arrows here, okay? And I can just drag this into my timeline and this is my project, okay? Is that easy? Launch your clip by clicking on here. Decide which part of the clip you want by clicking the in and the out point and just drag it in here and you're good to go, okay? So I'm gonna go back to that original clip and say I wanna use this part. I can click these arrows to set my end point, my new end point or out point or I can go here, mark in on the top. Or I can use the shortcut. The shortcut is I for in. The shortcut for the out is the O. So every chance you get, learn to use the shortcuts. It's gonna help you work a lot faster and more efficiently, okay? So I wanna use my I for in and O for out, okay? So you can see my old in and out points are here, right? But as soon as I touch I on my keyboard, it just resets, okay? It resets the end point and I wanna choose an out point here, okay? And again, I could just drag that in to my clip and now this is my project and you can see the edit here. My project is over here on the right. This is the resource viewer window. This is the project window, okay? And you can see that I have an edit right there, okay? So here, I'm gonna try this cut here, okay? And here's another clip, it's unfortunately upside down. It was one of those weird moments where my iPhone was not able to find its equilibrium, and it just recorded the thing upside down because I was doing this a lot, moving around. And I'm gonna set my end point here by pressing I. I'm gonna let the clip play and I'm gonna set my out point there. And I'm gonna, instead of just dragging it into the timeline, there's another way to edit. I could drag this clip to the next window and now I have a menu of options. I could insert the video, overwrite, replace, fit to fill, place on top, append that end, or ripple, overwrite. I'm just gonna append it at the end. And you can see here it was added at the end, okay? So let's go back to the edit page to talk about some of these options, okay? So we mark the clip by setting our in and out points, right? We drag the clips into the timeline to create our projects. And we are going to learn the insert edit. Insert is when you put a clip between two other clips, okay? And you have several options of doing that, okay? So I'm gonna, because some of these clips, they look similar, I'm gonna choose something that's totally different, like this close up, this close up, okay? I'm gonna randomly set an end point here and an out point here and look at where my timeline is. My timeline is right here between the clips. And I wanna put insert and look what happens. This clip of the close up is inserted between these two clips, okay? And if ever you do something that you didn't want to do, you could always undo. So one thing I want you to understand is that do not be afraid to try things. Because just like Microsoft Word or any other program, you can undo, look here in the edit page, on the edit undo, okay? So I can undo that and I'm back to where I was, okay? So what I did was I put, I chose insert when I dragged this over and it inserted the clip in between the two clips, okay? The next option is overwrite. That means I'm gonna place the clip here, insert puts the clip between the two other clips and moves the clips on the right further back. You can see overwrite puts the clip here and it erases. That's what overwrite means. It erases the clips that are in that space, okay? I'm gonna demonstrate here. You can see that the playhead is here, it's covering this shot, right? So overwrite is gonna erase part of that clip, okay? So it erased everything that was here before, okay? I'm gonna undo that. So insert the clip between two clips and pushes the clips on the right further down. The overwrite puts the clip where your playhead is and erases the existing clips in that space. Replace is just gonna replace that clip, okay? So if I have this clip here and I choose replace, it's just gonna switch this clip for that clip and it doesn't change the length, okay? So you can see that that's what happened here, okay? And again, I'm gonna undo. I'm gonna undo to bring the old clip back and fit to fill. So fit to fill is similar to replace, but what it does is that it's gonna take the length of the clip that you have and either make it speed it up to fit a smaller space or slow it down to fit a longer space, okay? So this might be hard to understand at first, but let me demonstrate, okay? I'm gonna shorten this clip. I wanna make it really short. And notice how I'm going to fit to fill. This is a short clip that is going to replace a long clip. Fit to fill. So you can see how this was slowed down to fit that space, okay? To fit that space here. I'm gonna undo that. So that's what fit to fill does. I have a longer clip that I wanna fit in a smaller space. So I'm going to speed it up so that it'll fit. And vice versa, if you have a short clip that you wanna fill into a longer space, it's gonna slow it down to make it play longer, okay? So here, place on top. So if I choose this, I choose place on top, it's just gonna put it above. And you might wanna do that because if you're not sure, I'm not sure if I want this clip here. So I'm just gonna place it on top, okay? I wanna undo that. And we did a pin to end and then ripple overwrite means that it's gonna overwrite this and adjust the size. Watch, okay? So it took away the other clip and it brought this one in, okay? So those are the basic editing features, okay? And you can practice on your own to master them, okay? So right now let's talk about trimming. Trimming is important because when you edit a clip, you're gonna make little adjustments to make that edit sharper, to make that edit smooth. And you're gonna do a roll, you're gonna do a ripple, a slip or a slide, okay? Let me find one more clip here. Oh, this one, okay. I'm gonna go back here and I wanna use this clip, okay? So remember, you can drag clips into the timeline, you can drag clips to the right and you have this menu option, okay? You can also, there are icons here. There are three editing icons. You can see if I hover my cursor over this, it says insert clip, you can click here or you can use the shortcut F9, okay? I'm gonna click here and I've inserted that clip, okay? So right now, we're talking about trimming. Trimming is how you make your cuts cleaner, smoother and more fluid, okay? And these are the things that you do. You roll, ripple, slip and slide, okay? So here, in order to activate the trim mode, I'm gonna click on this icon here. If I just let my hover my cursor over it and let it sit for a second, the name comes up along with the keyboard shortcut, trim edit mode. I can click on this icon or I can press T, okay? I'm gonna click on this and what does this do? You can see I get this funny looking cursor with two brackets back to back and if I click on this edit point, I can move it around. I can move it to the left and I can move it to the right. And if you look at the screen here, on the left side, you'll see the tail of this clip and then you'll see the head of this clip and you can decide, oh, is this gonna match? If I do this in my match, right now they're starting to look similar. Let's see what happens. So I moved it over here. So that matched pretty well, right? Because I moved, I rolled my edit over, okay? So roll means that you're gonna choose the edit and you're gonna move it to the left or to the right. Ripple, if you notice the green, you're just gonna choose one side. You're gonna choose one side to lengthen or shorten, okay? So here, I'm just gonna, instead of putting the cursor in the middle, I'm gonna lean to one side and here I can make this clip shorter or longer, but the right clip stays the same. Similarly, if I hover on this clip, I can make this shorter or longer, okay? So you can move both at the same time or you can affect one side of the edit, either side of the edit, okay? So that's a ripple, okay? Slip, slip is when you do this. When you wanna take the whole clip and just move it around, you're not changing the inner out points, okay? So notice these inner out points do not change, but the content changes, okay? That's what a slip does. Slide is when you slide the whole clip to the left or the right. And if I move this cursor a little bit further down, you can see the icon has changed. Now I can slide the clip to the left and to the right, okay? So, I know that was a lot, right? But don't worry, we're planting the seed right now in your head about what's possible and how you're gonna be working with these tools, okay? When you decide to work with the software and you go through the tutorials, you'll see clearly how they work, okay? And believe me, it's not that hard, okay? So, what's next? Okay, so I'm just gonna fix one thing. So let's use these tools, these trim tools you use to perfect cuts, okay? So I like starting the second cut here. So I'm gonna use this ripple tool to bring the edit there, okay? And now, maybe I'll even shorten that some more, okay? And now notice this cut from this shot to the next shot. Okay, that matches nicely. Okay, these are the only clips I'm gonna use today. So I'm gonna, in order to have more screen real estate to work with, I'm gonna close this media pool by clicking on this tab on the upper left corner. I'm gonna close that media pool and I'm not gonna be looking at any more source clips. So I'm gonna click this icon on the upper right just to have one window. And that way I won't get distracted, okay? Oh, so remember this clip was upside down, right? Because my iPhone, it just couldn't find its equilibrium for this one shot. So I'm gonna click on it and if I look at this icon here on the upper right that says inspector, inspector, I have options to change certain parameters, okay? I can zoom in. You see how I can zoom in on that shot if I wanted to? I'm gonna undo to go back to normal state. I can change the position. I can change the, it might be hard for you to see, right? But there's a slider here that says rotation angle, okay? So I can change the rotation angle. I can flip it, okay? But this is hard to get just right with this slider. So luckily I remember my middle school math, you know? What I really need is 180 degrees, right? So I'm just gonna type that in. I'm gonna type in 180 and click enter and boom, it's perfect. So I just flipped it 180 degrees. And let me adjust this cut now, okay? So the first shot, hey, let's change this clip code so that we recognize this first shot. I'm gonna change that first clip to orange, change the second clip to blue, change this third clip to maybe green so that we can recognize them, okay? So the first clip, maybe I could even tighten that up a little bit more, right? Oops, I needed that trim mode, right? That trim mode, remember the keyboard shortcut was T. Watch this icon switch to red when I hit T on my keyboard. There you go, okay, now I'm in trim mode. You can see that this icon has changed. I'm gonna drag this closer. And if I play this, that's a nice change, okay? And I'm gonna go from here to maybe there. And I'm gonna make this clip a lot longer, okay? So this is so far what we have. Okay, so we heard a lot of background noise and there's no dialogue here. So here on the audio track, I'm just gonna click mute to shut that off, okay? So now when we play it, we won't hear that noise from the soundtrack, okay? And whenever you don't need a window, you should close it so that you have more, you can use more of your screen. So the inspector here on the upper right that I used to flip that screen, I'm just gonna click inspector again to close it, okay? So this is that first step, right? Cleanse the skin with aloe vera wipes. So I'm going to copy that because I'm not very good at typing, okay? And I'm gonna add a title here, okay? So let me direct your attention to the upper left corner. We had the media pool, right? The media pool is where all your clips are. We don't need that so I'm gonna close that and now I'm gonna open the effects library, okay? So here, look at all these titles that are just pre-made for you. If you roll over them, you can audition them, okay? Sometimes if you scroll left and right, you can see the animation, okay? I look at this, there's a ton of them, okay? This is really cool, right? So I know which one I want and I don't wanna go down and look at all of these and try to read, I'm gonna go to the search. I'm gonna click on this and I'm gonna type in dark box text because I know that's the title of the title that I want, okay? Oh, there it is, the dark box text, it just came right up. I'm gonna, I just drag it, look, I'm just dragging it right here. I found the title I wanna use and I just dragged it in. That's how easy it is. And I'm gonna click on it to highlight it because I wanna manipulate it and I have to go back to the inspector. Remember, an inspector here allows you to change parameters in any clip on the timeline, okay? So here, now this is, what does it say here? Sample text and this is the sample text. So I'm gonna delete that, okay? And I'm gonna copy in my sentence, cleanse the skin with aloe vera wipes, right? Okay? And it's a little bit big. So I'm gonna go to the size here. You see where it's a size, make that a little bit smaller. Okay? And now I wanna bring it down, right? So I'm gonna go to settings and you can see the position. So again, whenever you are not sure about something, click on it. You're not gonna break anything. You're not gonna mess anything up. Don't worry, okay? So if, and once you make changes, you undo to go back to the previous state, okay? So position, let me see, what is that? Yeah, I wanna move to position, right? I wanna move this title from the middle of the screen down, position. Oh, that's left and right. So I'm just gonna stop that. I wanna undo or I could just highlight this and type zero. Zero will take me back, all right? So X I just learned was left and right. What about Y? Oh, Y is up and down. That's what I need. I'm gonna go down. So I'm gonna drag the Y parameter down. Okay, about there looks good, right? Okay. And whenever you see a red line here, that means the Vinci Resolve needs to make that file. It needs to make this title with that sentence, cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. And you can see that red line has turned blue, which means that it's done, okay? That's called rendering. It had to render that title, okay? So now if I play it, there it is, okay? It seemed a little short, right? And we have ESL students. I would like that title to linger, linger a lot longer, right? So what I'm just gonna do is, I'm gonna grab the end of that title and just drag it out. See? I'm just gonna drag it out, make it longer. And as you can see, that red line came back because the Vinci Resolve has to render that title again, which means that it has to create that file and you can see it turning blue, okay? Oh, can I ask you a question? Sure. Can you move the title in the preview window by clicking on it to activate it and then using your arrow keys up, down, left, right? Well, let's try it. Hold on. Oh, yeah, yeah, okay. Linda, good question. It doesn't appear that you can't because that your left, right arrows are mapped to this timeline. Okay, for example, if I, you see the time head here, if I hit my left arrow, this moves one frame to the left. Can you see that? So arrow keys are shortcut for the cursor moving back and forth. Right, right, okay. So if I move my left arrow, it moves one frame to the left. If I move it to the right, it moves one frame to the right. If I click the down arrow, it jumps to the next edit. Watch, down arrow, next edit. Down arrow, next edit. Up arrow goes back one edit, okay? So that's what the arrow keys do. But you can drag, you can type in a number here, okay? You can type in a position number or you can hover over it and just drag. You see that? Okay, thank you, got it. As you can see, when you hover over it, you can see the double arrows, right? Is that visible? Okay, that's good, that's good. Okay, so again, so here it is. The vision result is writing, is rendering this title, is turning blue, okay? And notice how easy it was to make it longer. Make it stay on screen longer for your ESL students. Just pull the tail, okay? Cleanse the skin with aloe vera wipes. And it stays there. Your ESL students have time to read it, right? Okay, so, hey, that looks pretty good, but look, we made our edits, we added a title. What else do we need visually? Does a video ever start like that? No, you need a transition, right? You need, usually it's fade up from black, right? Look, if I hover my cursor on the upper left corner of the screen, you can see there's a little white dot there. I'm gonna drag that out, okay? And that creates a transition, okay? That creates a, or, listen, I'm just gonna undo. I'm gonna undo, and now I'm back to my state, okay? So that's one way, just pulling this little red white square or I can go to my effects library. And I go to video transitions. Oh, maybe not that one. My video transitions disappeared. Oh, you know why? Because I still have this dark box text here, okay? Let me delete that, and there it is, okay? So it was stuck on dark box text, okay? So once I cleared my search box, look at, look at all these effects you have available to you. Okay, so if I just hover over it with my cursor and go left and right, you can see I get a little preview, right? This is the drop warp. Look what happens. That's funky, right? Look at film strip. Hey, that's kind of cool. Look at that. So I get little previews. I don't have to do anything. I'm just moving my cursor over each effect. But now if I wanna try it, I'm gonna drag, film clip over here from strip, drop it there, and then let me play it. Okay, that was kind of cool, but it's a little too dramatic for my students, right? So cross dissolve is the classic, right? Cross dissolve, okay? Right, that's nice and simple, right? And look, the cross dissolve is about one second. If you hover over it, you can see it's here, right? You can make it dissolve longer or shorter just by pulling left or right, okay? All right, so just a recap. Again, we don't need the effects, titles. I'm just gonna close this so that we have, and I'm gonna close the inspector. And now I have my project here. Look, so we've added our clips. We've added a title and we've added a transition, okay? Now, what do we need? We need the voice over narration, okay? So we're on the edit page. I'm gonna go to the Fairlight page. Look at the bottom. I'm gonna go to the Fairlight page. You can see the clips here, right? I'm gonna go to my video. And I'm gonna, this is gonna be a lot for you to remember. So again, right now I'm just gonna show you how I've put together this project. You're not supposed to remember all of this. It's a little technical, I understand, but I wanna record narration. So I'm gonna add another track, a soundtrack. I'm gonna choose mono. I'm gonna double click on this. I'm gonna call it narration, okay? So I'm gonna call it narration. And I have to assign. I have to assign the audio coming in to go to this track. So the audio coming in, my mic is gonna come in on line one. And I want it to go here, narration, right? That's what I named. That's what I named this, okay? I'm gonna click patch, and I'm gonna close this, okay? And in order to record, I have to click this R, our arm for record. You can see that, that means ready. Arm means ready. And then you could hear, I'm getting feedback right now because I'm speaking to the mic and it's coming back from my computer system. But here I can adjust. I can adjust my microphone level, okay? And when I'm ready, I'm just gonna click this circular dot here, okay? I'm gonna turn off my computer while I record, okay? Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, so let's listen to that. Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Maybe I'm not happy with that delivery. I'll try another one. Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. I'll try one more. Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, turn that off. Okay, so I did three different versions, right? And if I open it up, they're all here. Let me change their color so that we could identify them better. This one is a, remember, this is something that you could always do to better identify your clips, okay? Change their colors, okay? So listen, let me listen to each one. Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. So it's always gonna play the one on top. If I wanna audition this one, I'm just gonna switch it to the top, bring it up to the top. Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, that one sounded a little pretentious, so I'm not gonna use that one. Let me try the pink one. Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, I think my favorite was the blue one, right? Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, as you can see, that was the best I could do. I'm not an actor, so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna turn down the volume of these two by dragging this line, as you can see the audio, you can see the audio waveforms just disappear as I pull it down. So now all I have is this. Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, so now I'm gonna go back. I'm gonna go back to the edit page. Let me direct your attention to the bottom of the page by clicking edit, I'm back here. And look, my audio track is here. You know what, I'm gonna delete this one. And I'm gonna delete this one, okay? And let's hear it in the context of the video and the title, okay? Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, so the voice came away before the title, right? The title is here. And what I can do is I can drag this over, see? To time it better. So I know that if you remember, my titles need to animate up. They animate up and here they go. And the first time we see the word is, oh, let's try that. Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. And the title stay on screen for my ESL students. Maybe I'll even make them a little bit longer, right? Because you know how ESL students are. They need time to read, okay? All right? So, all right, what about some music? Okay, this piece could use a little music, right? Okay, so remember the media page. This is where we brought in our media, right? Our videos, right? All of my hard drives are here. But there's an even easier way, believe it or not. So I'm working in the edit page. I'll open my media pool and I could just drag stuff right into here, okay? So I'm gonna find my hard drive. I'm gonna go to, wait, music. And I like this song here. Stepping something to the top, okay? So, in order to bring this file into my DaVinci Resolve project, I'm just gonna drag it in. I click on it. I'm gonna drop it right into the media pool. And now the song is here, okay? Guess what? I forgot to show you this. You could resize things. So I can make the window smaller to have more real estate down here to work with, okay? So I have my song. In order to use the song, I'm just gonna drag it in. And there it is. You can see the sound waves, okay? And just like, just as with the transition here, you can see there's a little tab here. I'm gonna pull this over and I'm gonna have a, the song is gonna come in nice and gently now, okay? Okay? So I have some music. I have my titles. I have the video and, but I couldn't hear my voice, right? Because the music was too loud. So this is where the next phase is called sound mixing, right? Sound mixing is when you balance all the audio elements that you have in a feature film. What does that mean? There's dialogue. There's music. There's sound effects. Sound effects could be, you know, street ambience, birds, cars passing by and the sound mixer's job is to balance all those elements so that you can hear them all and they contribute to the feeling and atmosphere of the scene, but you can still hear the dialogue. So you can see this white line here that runs from left to right on top of the sound clip. I'm just gonna drag that down to reduce the volume and let's see how that sounds. Cleanse the face. Still a little too loud, right? Maybe go a little bit softer, okay? Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. So that worked, right? So I'm gonna, that song is very long. I'm just gonna make it shorter, okay? And so far, this is what we have, okay? Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, so quickly, need to move a little bit quicker now. We have our edit. We have our title. We have our narration and music and we've balanced them out, okay? Now I'm gonna go to the color page. Color page is here, okay? And remember, this is what DaVinci Resolve was famous for, okay? Six, at least 60% of everything you see on TV and in the movie theaters are color graded and corrected by DaVinci Resolve. So what does that mean? So first you're gonna color balance. Simply to do that, let me direct your eye to this corner here. You see that eyedropper? You see the eyedropper? This, you choose this and you click on something that you want to be standard white. Anywhere here that you want to be white. I want this board to be white. As soon as I click, you see how it neutralized the colors? I don't know if that comes through on Zoom, but I'm gonna undo. This was the state of the video, okay? I'm gonna grab my eyedropper tool and just click here. And now it's neutralized. And for me, that looks a lot more natural, okay? And I wanna boost it just like, wait, let's go back to the page, color. So essentially we did this, right? There was a little yellow cast and we made it neutral, okay? And now we're gonna do a color boost, okay? We're gonna do a color boost. The color boost feature is on the lower left corner. Do you see it here? And I'm just gonna raise it a little bit. Listen, if you're ever not sure of what to do, go all the way so that you can see clearly what that feature does and then you can pull back, okay? So don't go up incrementally and try to figure out what it does. Go, oh my God, oh, that's what it does, right? So now I'm gonna pull back. I'm gonna pull back. Look, you could have this kind of look or something warmer like that, okay? Actually, I'm gonna undo that. Okay, so I wanna reset that. I'm gonna double click on color boost to reset that. Okay, so when I double click, these numbers turn to zero. That means reset, okay? These things here are called nodes, okay? I want to create a new node and I wanna put the color boost here, okay? Oh, that looks nice. Look at her face. That looks nice, right? Nice skin color on her face, right? I'm gonna turn off this color node and you can see how nice her face looks now, right? It might be a little strong. I could pull it back a little bit, okay? Now I'm gonna add another node. Right now I'm just showing you, this is a little bit advanced, but I'm just gonna show you what the Vitia Resolve is famous for, okay? Let's work, because this is about makeup, she's gotta have beautiful skin, right? So let's work on her skin, right? We balanced the frame with white. We add a little color boost. Now I'm gonna select her skin by choosing this eyedropper, okay? And right now you can see I just selected her skin, okay? And whatever I do now is only gonna affect her skin, nothing else. For example, if you wanna test it, I'm just gonna drag this color wheel to blue. You can see it's just gonna affect her face because I've selected only her face and masked everything else out. I'm gonna undo that, okay? Instead of adding color, I'm gonna go to my effects by opening here, open effects. I'm gonna type in something called beauty and it's right here, okay, beauty. And I'm gonna crank up the amount. Okay, can you see how her skin has smoothened out? I'm gonna, okay? So her skin, if you ever wonder why those movie stars and singers on music videos and movies have such wonderful skin, this is one reason why, okay? So look, I have these three nodes here and do I have to do the same thing for these two? That's a lot of work, right? No, so I'm just gonna copy them over. I'm gonna highlight this, I'm gonna highlight this and I'm gonna click my middle mouse button and look what happened, look what happens. Now those three nodes are over here now and if I want to take a look at this mask, look. It has adjusted itself for these two shots and if I look at these two shots, look how nice her skin looks, okay? Look, her skin is practically glowing, right? Okay, so if I go back to the edit page by clicking on the bottom here, this is what we have so far, okay? Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, so what I would do now, that's just the first step, right? I would go through and continue in the same manner with each step of that lesson, okay? And just as with the color enhancements, you can copy the effects over. Learning those tips will help you move more, work more quickly and smoothly, okay? So here, one thing is I'm gonna need to make another title, right? So if I hold option, if I hold option on my Mac, I don't know what the equivalent is on the PC but it's a similar function, okay? Alt is called alt. Okay, thank you, Linda, thank you for coming today. So hold option on the Mac or alt on the PC and just hold it down and just drag it. Look, you're automatically making another copy. And then now I can just go into the inspector and write in my new, and copy, I don't even like to type, right? I'm just gonna copy here, protect the face with vitamin cleanser, whoops, okay? So those little tips, I'm gonna delete this. Those tips will help you work a lot faster, right? I didn't spend any time typing because I had my list up, right? I just copied and pasted the text in. Okay, so right now we have to output this. So we've made our video, okay? I'm gonna go to this deliver page. Look at the bottom of the screen. Deliver is where you're gonna output your video, okay? I'm gonna call it a name. I'm gonna say aloe vera, okay? I'm gonna browse to the location that I want to save it in, okay? I'm gonna browse, I'm gonna save it to my desktop, okay? Save and add to render queue. So it's here, okay? Oh, one thing I forgot to tell you that's really, really cool, okay? I'm gonna go back to the edit page, go to file and quick export. If I choose quick export, look, I could set up my YouTube account and it will, I could set up my YouTube account and it will make the video and upload it directly to my YouTube account. My Vimeo account, my Twitter account, I could set up, sign in and set it up whereas it'll write the video and upload it to all these accounts at the same time. Isn't that amazing? Okay, so again, I wanna cancel out. I'm going to deliver, remember, I'm at the deliver page, right? Everything looks good. I click add to render queue. The queue is the line of all your projects. Remember, rendering means writing the project. I'm gonna click render all. So now, once I click render all, it's gonna make the video. So you can see that green line, the progress bar advancing to the right, okay? And again, so far my Mac's been working out okay and it's the old one, it's eight years old, okay? Done, look at that. So now, ah, the video's here. Oh, here it comes. Cleanse the face with aloe vera wipes. Okay, so that is a little sample of what DaVinci Resolve can do. Right now, I'm just gonna show you the completed video that I actually made for my class, okay? So this was the actual video that I made using all of the clips and going through all the steps in the video. The lesson that my students did, it took them 40 minutes to do the home makeup process. The final video is four minutes in the professional world, they call that a 40 to one shooting ratio, right? Like imagine a two hour movie, they will shoot thousands of minute, I mean, you know, hundreds of hours of footage to make a two minute to two hour video, right? So I'm gonna let you watch that video that we made. Okay, it's right here. Oh, we don't see the video. Cleanse the skin with aloe vera wipes. Wait. Protect the face with... I chose share screen and... Oh, here, so, okay, I got it, I got it, I got it. Here it is. Cleanse the skin with aloe vera wipes. Protect the face with vitamin cleanser. Cover blemishes with color corrector. Accentuate facial features with color contour. Brush eyebrows with powder and gel. Eye eyeshadow and blend. Brush the eyelashes with mascara. Apply lip liner. Apply blush to the cheeks. Okay, so now you have a video that you can use for your class. You can use to... You can use to promote your class. You can use it in your class. You can put it on the internet. And also, that's not the end of it. You can take out little clips and put it in your school's learning management system. For at LAUSD, we use Schoology for a variety of exercises. Let me show you real quick, okay? So I've broken up the clips, okay? Here's something called makeup steps, okay, that I made with the video. Can everyone see my screen? Okay, so the video is here. I just took a part out of the video. I don't wanna play the whole video, just about a minute and there's no sound. But the students are supposed to watch this video and put the steps that they see in the correct order. You see how you can drag these steps? Okay, so it's an ordering sequencing exercise, okay? So I just took a portion of the video and the cool thing is, look, the video can keep on playing while you move these steps into the order, okay? So I'm gonna quit out of this. And here's another exercise that I've made. I took little clips from that video along with the sound and created a matching exercise. So here are our video clips that are just a few seconds long and I have four audio clips at the bottom. Oh no, okay, okay, well, this is embarrassing. Okay, what's supposed to happen is that there are those audio clips and the student drags the clip next to the video to match what they see. Okay, that's just irritating, technology, right? I rehearsed that about five times and it worked fine until the time came to demonstrate. Doesn't that always happen? Okay, so listen. Hey Paul, Paul, sorry. So here's the chance to redeem yourself. So in Schoology, what's the, Kora is asking, what's the name of the exercise maker? Does that activity have a name, that matching activity that we just saw? Yeah, let me show you. Yeah, first you create a lesson and then you choose matching here. Okay, you choose matching and then you can import a text, audio, video, pictures. Hey look, it's just slow. Okay, so you would put something here on the right, like I clicked here, video player, upload video and I put my YouTube link here, okay? I put the, so I put all the video on this side and I put the audio. I'll click here and I put, I upload audio and then I would upload the MP3 here and then on the bottom, you would set up the answers. Okay, so that is really, really irritating. I can't believe this. I did it like five times, really, is that for real? This is an outrage, but okay, so listen. What's next? Okay, let me share my screen again. Can you guys see my PowerPoint? Yes. Yes. Okay, so what kind of videos can you make for your class? You can make a graduation video. You can make a video of your students talking about their goals, okay? You can make your students, you can make a video of your students talking about their challenges, okay? You could have your students send you video clips that you put together and put on your learning management system. It's up to you, okay? The possibilities are endless, okay? So what's next? Okay, I'm going to put what I call the quick start guide into the chat, okay? So go to Black Magic Design, download and install DaVinci Resolve, okay? Real easy. Follow this quick start guide that I'm going to put in the chat for in a minute, okay? Look at the training resources. Start learning with an open mind, okay? Be fearless. Remember, try things. You're not going to break anything. You can always undo, okay? And practice, okay? And if you ever have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me, okay? I'll be happy to hear from you, okay? Whether you're doing good or maybe, you might be a little frustrated, reach out to me, say, Paul, I don't get it, okay? And tell me why, and I'll do my best to help, okay? So right now, open your chat window. I'm going to put that document, the quick start guide into the chat window so that you can download it, okay? All right? And one thing I wanted to show you about this, okay, so look, some of these links are highlighted, some aren't, but they all work. If I click on Black Magic Design, it takes me, not even to that front page, but right to the download page, okay? See, here we go, right? Download right here, okay? We did not go to the homepage, so these links work, okay? So these are short, easy tutorials to get started, okay? These are links to those same videos that I showed you on the Black Magic Design website, but to the YouTube account instead. And this is really cool, let me explain why. I'm going to click on this YouTube link, okay? It's going to take me to those same videos, but instead of coming from the Black Magic Design's website, they're on YouTube, and why is this cool? Look. Hi, I'm Paul. I'm going to show more. Here, I can download the video files to follow along with the video just like the website, but it breaks down what you're going to learn at what part of the video. So if you say, hey, I just want to figure out how to add a transition, I'm just going to click here and it's going to go right. So I'm going to go out. It's going to go to that moment, okay? So that's a really cool feature, all right? So, hey, it's 429. I guess I could tell the bosses at O-10 that Anthony, tell them Paul finished on time, okay? So, okay, unmute right now. And Anthony was kind enough to say that he wouldn't mind staying for a few more minutes because, but right now it's the therapy session, okay? I hope you guys are feeling okay. Everybody take a deep breath. I know I'm going to have a happy hour drink after this. That was a lot, right? Let's be honest, was that a lot? Gloria, was that a lot? How do you feel? I think it's doable. I just probably need to go step by step on that. Right, Gloria, it is doable because if you really paid attention to what I actually did, I just clicked and dragged things, right? Yeah. I clicked and dragged and adjusted things. There was no computer coding, nothing that was, right? When I flipped that video, remember, I used my middle school math, 180 degrees, right? Yeah, that worked, right? And I grabbed transitions from the window and just dragged it right on top of my clip. I dragged the titles out, right? I copied, I didn't even do any typing. I copied and pasted from my Word document right into DaVinci Resolve. So remember, it's like a Microsoft Word. I'm just gonna choose my favorite font. I'm gonna choose the size. I'm gonna start typing. I'm gonna choose middle align, left align, right? And I'm done, right? You just use what you need. And if you wanna get fancy, if you wanna go Hollywood, if you wanna do the really, really cool stuff, it's all possible, okay? Remember, what do they say? The journey of 1,000 miles begins with the first step, okay? Just keep that philosophy in mind. Remember our grade school fairy tale, the tortoise and the hare, right? Keep all these fundamentals in mind as you take your first step, you know? And good luck, okay? Remember, this is a part of the amazing time that we live in, that sometimes we forget about. Remember when we were growing up, there were only like four TV stations, right? ABC, NBC, CBS, and then your local station, right? Now you can make something and put it on YouTube and it could be viewed all over the world. So now this software sophisticated application that is being used at those fancy Hollywood studios that charge $500 an hour is available to you. This is the amazing time that we live in and it's up to you whether you wanna learn it or not. You know what I'm saying? These tools are available to you and if you choose to buy the studio version, which you don't really need it, the only thing that advantage you would have for use that there are some more special effects, like that beauty effect I used, that's not gonna be in the free version, okay? But the 3D stuff, you know, you don't need any of that, okay? So these same tools that they're using to grade the Avengers, you know, those big budget movies you can use, I'm using to make my cosmetology video, you could use it to put together your student interviews, okay? So, you know, Anthony and I are here for three more minutes for questions, any questions? Paul, I have a question. So I know LAUSD is really, really careful about video release student signatures. So what is the first, are they signing some sort of permission granted for you first? Yes, yes. And in our school division, we have a standard document, you know, and students, they're happy to do it. There's never a problem. Okay, and then you're taking your personal cell phone and you're putting it onto your Mac. Is your Mac a school computer or is it a personal computer? It's my own, it's my own. Okay, okay. Cause I downloaded DaVinci the other day when I got the OTAN email and it's all on the school computer that I have. Oh, okay. So I just wanna make sure that I'm not, you know, I have to keep everything. I don't wanna put my personal cell phone onto my school computer. Okay, yeah, I get it, I get it. So for recording, how would you recommend I would do that then? So you wanna be very strict and keep, you know, your professional and private, you know, things separate. So you're gonna have to ask the school for a camera. Uh-huh, okay. Right? Okay. Okay. Yeah, so see with Screencastify, I can record directly from that program. So there's no way you can record videos from this. No, you can record with your Screencast and bring that video file. There you go, there you go. Excellent, there it is. That's what I needed. I need some brain time. Usually those cameras are not that good. Yeah, yeah, I get it. So get your administrator to buy a video camera for your school, okay? For your faculty, for the team. And, you know, for like $1,500, you can get a great camcorder these days. I mean, just superb, you know? Okay.
