From what I gather it's an issue during export. Tearing/refracting after large amount of black on screen.

Export settings | YouTube 1080p, 1920x1080p, 60fps (timeline fps), MP4, H.264 Codec, Auto Type, High Encoding Profile, Bus 1 (stereo) audio, AAC audio Coded, Project Data burn-in|

I want to learn how to make something like this, like a TV broadcast error screen! For indie horror. (Now I need to put some extra details because apparently I'm breaking rule 11)

Reasons why I need this: I'm not bad at editing, but learning how to edit things like this can REALLY improve ME! So ME GOOD EDITER! ME GOOD HAPPY

Reasons why you should help me: Because you're very smart, and because Pretty PLEASE with a cherry on top, maybe?

My story: I am illiterate. That’s essentially it.

Also, VHS: I would love to learn how to create my own VHS tapes. Instead of searching for VHS videos online and downloading them, I want to explore making them myself!!

I’ve just spent hours rotoscoping this person’s legs and am thinking of doing the same after the entire mask broke for seemingly no reason?
No other way to explain really, I’ll pop up a video, I may have pasted the mask over to another version of the clip, was working fine. Then possibly closed Davinci, and opened it later only to find it completely messed up :(

Also if anyone know's where I can get higher quality Pokemon sprites lmk!

Is there a quick "blur"/muddle/soften effect for audio somewhere in the default DR suite? I've looked for in a couple times, but never found it.

I find it hard to believe that it's not there somewhere, but I've had to use this third-party plug-in as a replacement just for that. The plug-in is kind of a pain in the ass though, because by default I have to turn off the two effects on the side every time I use it. It's also kind of buggy.

TL;DR: Read the DaVinci Resolve Editor Guide, practice to remember what the different playhead colors mean, and pay close attention to detail. You have 50 questions to answer in one hour, so you don't have much time to search for answers—but it's a great way to test your actual knowledge.

I am writing this post to:

1. Share my excitement about having passed the test (yeah!!!).
2. Offer some advice for those looking to get certified (I looked for these tips myself, but couldn't find them beforehand).

My background: I’ve played around with DaVinci for a long time, but last week I decided to step up my game and read the DaVinci Resolve Editor Guide. It’s an easy read and truly awesome material. Beyond structuring what I already knew, I acquired a lot of new knowledge. If I had read it earlier, I think I would have saved hours that I otherwise "lost" watching tutorials.

So, after finishing it yesterday evening, I decided to take the test this morning.

First things first: Yes, it’s an open-book test, but don't be mistaken—the time limit will severely restrict your ability to search for answers. There are 50 questions to answer in only one hour. Some are easy, others are a bit more tricky.

Simply knowing how to do things (multicam editing, compound clips, etc.) is not enough. If you have to search through menus, you will run out of time (I finished mine in 50 minutes). You also need to know the specific technical vocabulary—I'm looking at you, fellow non-native English speakers! ;)

Something I feel is important to underline: yes, you can copy/paste a question into your favorite AI or search the manuals. And yes, in my personal opinion, that's fine for a couple of questions. But at the end of the day, only you will know how much of your knowledge this certificate really represents. Ultimately, I think it’s a great tool to test your skills and identify what you need to study further.

I will try (if it’s possible) to take it again in a few months. This time, I hope to improve my score (I got 86% this time) without having to look at references. That way, I'll be able to measure my progress!

I wanted to make this effect of rising, falling and moving away seem more evident, as I don't really hear the difference. To be honest, with Pan off it seems better because it's louder for some reason

Btw am I making the 8D audio on the right way? I would like anyone who listens to them to feel goosebumps and say "Wow, this audio is playing inside my head" xD

Those titles look great - I know I can create them with the basic functions of fusion, I just don’t know how…

So as the title says, I'm looking to create a template where I can just plug in different videos (same subject, different angles, synced by waveforms) and be able to resize the videos within the frame without having to worry about cropping or transforming in the event that I need to change the rotation angle.

I have no idea the technical way of asking for this so I created this image as a guide. It is laid out similarly to how the end result will be.

Please let me know if you have any ideas or how I should go about finding this information (I'm still a noob, sorry).

Thank you!
