Well, then you have come to.

The right.

Place, because in this video
I'm going to share with you

ten tips
that will appeal to all skill levels.

So whether you're just a beginner.

Getting into editing. Or.

A skilled professional who does this
every single day, there is something.

For you in.

This video.

So all of that stuff and more coming up.

But first, if you're new.

Here, my name is Billy Ripken,
and I make weekly two inch.

Resolve tutorials about.

Different effects,

transitions and workflows
that'll help you become a better editor.

So if you want to level up your editing
skills, click that subscribe button and

the Bell notification to stay up to date
on the newest videos put out.

But let's get into it.

So the first tip I have for all of.

You, my friends, is. Something called.

Remote grading.

So what this is it is a blessing from Da
Vinci resolve themselves.

How many times have you cut up
a project and.

Reorganized. The clips all around?

And then.

At the end of your video.

You had to go back and copy and paste the
color grade to each clip that went with.

One another.

So, for. Example,
if I had a color grade on this.

One right here, I'd. Also have to copy
and paste the color. Grade.

For this clip to this one,
this one and this one.

And if you're working on a. Big project,
that's super annoying.

So this is. Where remote grades come. In.

If we go into the color tab

at the top, right,
we open up the clips menu right here.

What we can do is on. This first clip.

We can right click and go to use.

Remote grades.

Now, you can see all of the matching clips
have this pink.

Square at the bottom. Right.

So if I go ahead. And bring.

Up my gain like this, you'll also see
those changes on every single clip.

Moving on to.

Number two. We have adjustment clips.

Now, this one is a must know because you
can do so much with an adjustment clip,

including making your own presets
that you can use forever.

So just keep watching.

So an adjustment
clip is a clip that you can apply.

Color grades.

To effects zooms and fusion work too,
without.

Permanently.
Affecting the footage below it.

So to find an adjustment clip,
you'll have to go into the effects library

and then go down to effects
and then you'll see Adjustment Clip.

To use this, you'll just drag it above.
Whatever.

Video clip you want, and then you can make
any kind of adjustment to it.

So if you look here, I can just
make a zoom on the adjustment clip.

So you may be asking yourself,
why the heck did these make it to my list?

Well, because you can also use these as a.

Drag and drop preset.

For example.

I use this pop up animation I made every.

Single week pretty. Much for my videos.

So instead of every single week, me
having to make this effect.

Over and over and over again.

What I can do is make the effect within
an adjustment layer like I did here.

Then in the Inspector tab, I'll just name
it whatever the heck I want.

Then in the media pool,
I'll go to power bins and click on Master.

Now just go ahead and. Grab your.

Adjustment clip and drag it into the.

Master bin. Like this.

So now, every single time I want to,
I can just drag it out.

And there's the animation.

Now, if you don't see power bins,
what you'll do is go to view,

go all the way down and check show
power bins.

Then you'll have it enabled.

So when I add it to a power bin,

what this means
is as long as I'm using the same database,

I will always have this effect
I made in the power bins so I could.

Be totally working on another project.
Want this effect?

Just go into my power
bins, drag it in, and there it is.

It works.

Number three, kill da Vinci resolve.

Well, DaVinci resolve is.

Way more stable
and way more reliable than Premiere Pro.

Oh, it still has its moments.

Sometimes out of the blue,
it just crashes.

And then you go ahead
and restart the program.

But guess what? It doesn't load.

So what do you do?

Well, you don't shut down your computer
and you don't call black magic design.

What you do is down on your.

Taskbar, you right.

Click and open up the task manager.

Then in your processes, you.

Scroll. Down and you find.

Da Vinci resolve right there.

Then hit end task, then start it up again.

And it should work.

If, however, it doesn't open up,
go back into your task.

Manager and then.

Scroll all the way down
and find something called Fusion script.

Click on that and hit end task.

Then you should be able
to open up Da Vinci result.

Moving on to number four.

Live Save fam
Live Save is the thing I wish.

Premiere Pro had. When I was using it.

They had auto save,
which pretty much would stop

you while you're editing
so it can save lives.

Save and dive into resolve
will save in real time so that.

If for some reason it crashes
or you have a power outage.

Or something like that, you can just
pick up right where you left off.

Thank you, Jesus.

To enable life save, what you'll do is go
to the Da Vinci Resolve panel right here.

And then under preferences.

Click on user.

Now you'll see Project, save and load.

What you'll do is check, live, save.

Then trust. Me here.

Check. Project backups.

Seriously, I never thought I'd.

Have to use this, but I have like.

Four. Times and.

They were four pretty big projects.

Including one of my videos.

And because I had the project backups,
I was able to just go right back.

To the part before.

Some big.

Like error happened.

So trust me, just enable it.

Okay. You'll thank me later.

Now, moving on to number five.

We have a quick duplicate.

I know this one.

Is pretty simple
and pretty straightforward

for those of you who are advanced.

But trust me when I say this, there is
a lot of people who are hitting control C

and control V to duplicate their clips,
and you don't have to be doing that.

So to easily duplicate a clip,
what you'll do is hold down alt,

then click on the clip that you want
to duplicate and drag it up like that.

It is as easy as that.

It is a quick duplicate,
so no more copy and paste for you guys.

Just duplicate.

Now moving on.

To number.

Six, we have select
all to the right of the play head.

Now, this is one of those shortcut keys
that you just once you have it, you.

Never go. Back.

Now, this is just one of those shortcut
keys that you will just probably use

all of the time.

So what it does is anything.

To the right of the.
Play head. It's going to select.

So I had this key been set up to a
so anything.

To the right.

Of the play head is going to be selected
and anything to the left is it.

So if I want to add something.

Right here, I can.

Just make a cut then hit A and.

Spread it apart just.

Like this and add
in whatever clip you want.

Now, if you don't have this keyboard
shortcut set up, what you'll do is go up

to the bench to resolve under keyboard
customization, then go to all commands.

Then you'll type in select clip.

Then add the dropdown arrow.

And select clips forward, and then you'll.

See right here, select clips forward on.

All. Tracks.

You'll click on a. Keystroke right here.

Then whatever key you.

Want to matched,
you hit that one, then hit Save.

So now.

Moving on to number seven.

We have bypass layers.

Now, this one is just one
that I have to show you for you to see why

it's actually important.

So on our timeline, we have some music.

Right here. With clips.

So if I want to cut this footage off
and add it to the beat.

So as I'm going through
and making some cuts on the video,

I'm also making cuts on the audio
and you might accidentally delete

part of the audio just like that
to completely avoid all of that.

What you can do is hit this.

Button right here.

This is the. Layer. Bypass.

And if you notice,
it's on every single video track.

Now, if I continue to cut to the beat,

you'll notice that it's not making
any cuts on my music at all.

So yeah.

That one right there.

I do at least five times on pretty.

Much every single project.
So it's pretty important.

Now moving on to number eight,

this one is called
bypass color grades and fusion affects.

If you. Have either a lower end computer.

Or you do a ton of noise. Reduction
or really.

Incredible like.

Color grades or a lot.

Of fusion effects,
like some of my guys out there,

then your computer's probably going to lag
because of all of that.

So you can temporarily

turn off all of those effects and things
that are bogging down your system

by going. Up here on.

The edit tab and hitting this.

Kind of rainbow circle button right there.

Now you can see that
it completely bypasses

all of my color grades
and my fusion effects right here.

And if I want it
back on, I just hit it again.

Moving on to.

Number.

Nine is something that we all as video
editors probably struggle

with, that my friends is organization,
and yet as a video.

Editor or a filmmaker, if you start.

To misplace footage, that could be
a lot of money that you lose.

So now most people will.

Have their video editing structure like.

This,
and then they will just go into their.

Footage,
grab their a roll or B-roll or whatever.

Drag it in,
then create a bin called a roll.

And then drag that a roll footage.

Into the bin.

Then you would go on and do that to.
B-roll.

And. Screen shares and pictures and.

All of that other stuff. Well,
the days of doing.

That, my friends are over.

So what you can do instead
is go into the cut tab and just above

the media pool, you have this option
called import Media folder.

You hit that. Then in your media. Browser.

Find the footage
that you're going to be using.

For this. Project.
Then does it select. Folder.

And then the bin pops up.

And if you click on it, you'll see.

That everything that was in your folder
structure originally.

Is also here.

So you're able to import
your folder structure.

As bins and that is just awesome.

Now on to our final tip.

This is truly something.

That everybody.

Who uses Da Vinci Resolve needs to do.

Empty the cash folder.

Da Vinci resolve makes. Incredible.

Amounts of cash files to the point
where you'll have hundreds

of gigabytes
taken up by just your cash folders.

So every once in a while, you'll probably.

Start to run out of hard drive.

Space before you go out
and buy a new hard drive.

Just follow me right here.

So first.

What you'll do to find your cash

folder is go down to the bottom,
right to the project settings.

Scroll down to where you see cash,

file location, then hit browse
and then you'll see.

Your current. Cash. Folder location
right here.

So you close that and go into your file
explorer and find that exact file.

So to get to mine, it's under this PC.

Local disk users Billy

all the way down to videos
and I can see cache clips.

This is the file that I set up.
For DaVinci Resolve. Cash.

So instead of me just deleting
the whole file, I want it to stay there.

I just want it to be empty.

So I'll click on it and I'll hit Control A
and then hit delete.

And now it's just going to go ahead

and delete all of those files
and permanently delete this.

And then you can you wait three

277 gigabytes.

Oh, my gosh.

All right.

So there you have it, the ten tips that
you should know about individual resolve.

Now, if you're all about.

Editing effects and transitions,
then I got something awesome for you.

I created an. Awesome drag and.

Drop shaped transition pack

that I truly believe will help
you make your videos look.

Cooler. Faster.
