The Smartest thing was make Resolve FREE. Allow people to learn, then if they become professionals time to pay up. This will help increase the userbase

I've edited in Premiere for years and have switched to Resolve. My only regret is that I didn't switch sooner.

Your comments clearly show you dont know the power of Resolve yet. The built in Fusion page is every bit as powerful as AE. And the node editor is vastly superior when you lay in a lot of 3D effects. And you can adjust the light levels simply on the color page. It is a knob. Nice try though. Keep learning. On effects, OFX and BorisFX are both available in Resolve. Given the price and the power of Resolve AI to get stuff done, Resolve is simpler, you dont need as many toys because what you do have has tons of flex. FYI folks I was a VFX Pipeline Architect. I have credits on the patent for 1D to 3D conversion, and Animation design credits and Pipeline design on Avatar among many others. Node vs Layers was debated yeaars ago in animation. Ever since the switch to Maya artists in that realm have unanimously preferred nodes. You just cant do paralell work in layers. Cheers.

Though there are probably a smaller subset of people who'll appreciate this, Davinci Resolve also runs on Linux. For someone like me who uses various machines across Windows, Mac, and Linux, this was a big plus.

High-end compositing has always been node-based: Shake, Nuke, Fusion, etc.

5:05 you could achieve the same within the editing page of Resolve with layers.

I'm sure someone else mentioned it, but you don't have as many crashes on Premiere because you're on Mac. On Windows it's an absolute crashfest, it's so unstable. Adobe puts very little effort into it's Windows userbase vs Mac userbase. I've been using Premiere off and on for 20 years, and they still haven't managed to fix it.

Dynamic Link is great, but if you consider that Davinci packs both Premiere and After Effects in one thing, it's useless.

I’ve been on Premiere for awhile now, but now I want to give DaVinci a try

Ayyye... More DaVinci Resolve users! Welcome to the club!

It is huge success for Davinch Resolve being compared to the Premier pro recently and it means they are doing very well.

4:28 If you want to do the same thing in Resolve you can. Under Effects - Generators there's a solid color fill and you can set it to black and lower the opacity if you're used to that. OR a much simpler option is just lower the opacity of the video clip from the Inspector menu

The Dynamic link argument is weak, the Fusion page is one click away from the Edit Page

Do not trust someone who lowers the brightness of a clip with a black layer...

I've been using Final Cut Pro X for about 4 years. I just switched to Devinci Resolve and can't understand why I ever wasted my time with FCPX. You can BARELY grade properly in FCPX. Devinci feels professional and extremely fluid. I would highly recommend everyone give Devinci Resolve an honest try if not switch over. Great video guys, very informative.

That example at around 5:00 can be done the exact same way in davinci as in premiere.... no nodes are needed for that and im really unsure of why he uses them there...

I hated color grading in premiere, so I did that in resolve for years. But I got tired of the workflow with two programs, also premiere crashed on me on regular bases. I switched to resolve completly this year and never looked back. :)

I love Davinci Resolve, it’s simply awesome, and you get the industry standard color grading tools for FREE!!

They obviously gave Premier Pro a point with that dynamic link. Even he said, "It's cheating in this comparison" because with Davinci Resolve its automatically seamless. No need to spend more money on a 3rd party program. Resolve should've won this flat out 👍🏽

Having used Resolve for basically over 2 years, that ease of use thing tripped me. The text and darkening can be done in the edit page itself EXACTLY the same way it's done in Premiere...

4:12 . If anyone wanna do this on edit page at Resolve, 1. Go to Effects library and choose solid color and pick black color and place it on top of your clip. 2. Click on the solid color, Go to the effects control in inspector 3. Under the blend mode slider, move the slider to left to reduce opacity. Same as Premiere. No worries Landon, we know there are many ways to do the same thing.

Switched to Resolve over a year ago after using Premiere Pro for about 4 years, and don't miss it at all.

It seems to me like your scoring is almost based on you being comfortable with premiere

sorry but a lot of points are wrongly given for premiere

8:53 How does premiere get a point for having to switch to an entirely different program when you can just change tabs in Davinci. Also, If you want to you stand alone fusion you can send the footage via VFX Connect which is better than dynamic link because it has version control built in.

You can do the text layer the same way. You don't have to over complicate it. Just bring a generator, reduce opacity in the inspector and add your text.

The biggest thing I like about Premiere is that I can customize my workspace. Resolve is so limited in the workspace customization. And for me Premiere never crashes, but when using Resolve it is slow and crashes. It's just so weird how I seem to have had the opposite experience from everyone.

I have considered switching to Resolve numerous times, but the problem is I can't bring myself to give up all the other Adobe apps that work so well with Premiere such as After Effects, Audition, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.

14;50 Actually, Resolve essentially has the equivalent of "Drag Zoom Pro" built-in as Dynamic Zoom.

Last time I was this early Davinci resolve wasn't a thing.

I made the switch a couple of years back, having used Resolve for colour grading for years before alongside Premier, but Adobe just became to slow and expensive really. So I saw Resolve 12.5 when it brought in a reasonable simplistic editing side, until now with 17, which has quickly become an insanely powerful suite of tools. There are a number of things I looked at it this video that ear marked it as being made by someone who has only just scratched the surface, which is cool but some points are very misleading. Also, if you are hung up about plugins, Resolve actually has it already built in or see's a number of them being incorporated with each new release (many times in a year). For instance a while back, I paid £150 for Colour plugin, which has now been added for free (Colour Warper). The two plugins you mention specifically are actual features built into Resolve as standard. And then there is Fairlight Studio, which didn't get a mention, only one of the most powerful audio tools for production you can get and its free.. Anyway, thanks for the video :-)

Absolutely wonderful comparison video! Thorough, concise, detailed, & of course, well edited. Keep it, my man, & thank you.

This drag-zoom and synchronising plugins are kind of already integrated in Resolve😂👍

Honestly the point to adobe for the dynamic link with after effects is sooo unjustified. Why would you wanna switch programs? In davinci you have a full blown counterpart to after effects with fusion. I think u may not know that because otherwise I don’t know why you wouldn’t mention it. Thats just facts the workflow with premiere and dynamic link (which is often broken btw) is sooo much more time intensive compared to just clicking the fusion tap in davinci.

I've been editing in premiere about 15 years. Tried resolve for a week, goodbye Adobe. Fusion is just amazing, and the node methodology is so easy to learn, tons of info around the web

Thank you for the Playlist. At least I have lessons being learned in order. Focus guaranteed. Thankyou. Great work Sir. Michael.

Resolve is hard to understand at first when you came from Premiere but after a week or two you can’t go back to premiere ... almost no crash, better performance, better color, everything. The studio version is even faster

Switched to Resolve a couple months ago. Can’t go back.

On the simple text on ease of use, you can also do that layering on davinci without goin to the fusion page. It's super easy, just go into effects and type in solid color, drop the opacity in the inspector, then put text over it. It's the same process as premier

that was a nice video it definitely helped out, thankyou so much and you just earned a sub

In 2019, After 8 years using Vegas Pro I challenged myself to switch to DaVinci Resolve and edit an aftermovie in less than a week for a DJ I've worked with. The pressure of making a good video as fast as possible made me adapt to DaVinci in 3 days only :D

Where my Resolve fam at?

That dynamic link win for Premiere Pro in the VFX section is unwarranted. Changes made in the Fusion page are reflected across the whole timeline in Resolve. Within the same program.

Best analysis I've seen on the topic! 👍

5:01 you could have dropped a solid colour element and text element to the timeline just like in Premiere Pro

Eh, I like the video overall. Love the channel. But disagree on the VFX portion. Dynamic linking to AE is the same as going into the Fusion tab of Resolve. Any changes there get reflected on the edit page. No need for additional program

Fantastic tutorial, keep up the great videos!

I just switched to DaVinci and it's just so much better for me. I feel in love with it instantly. It's very intuitive, nodes seem very natural to me.

bro.. i was now searching the web for this and boom! this just landed on my push notification. thanks bro

Awesome Landon! I saw that you created a course on it! Super excited man!

Great video, just the info I was looking for.

Been watcNice tutorialng your vids for a good few weeks now, learning new sNice tutorialt each day. my worksoftow has improved so much since watcNice tutorialng

You can do text in the Edit page, too. It's just in the effects panel. Layer-based like Premiere

I just switched because I couldn't find one good reason why I should use Premiere

I started to learn video editing in February in davinci and never have looked elsewhere

As a long time DaVinci user, I'm gonna have to nab a point away from Premiere. 4:05, you can still perform the exact same layering as in Premiere. Place your clip on the bottom layer, on top of that place a "Solid Color", open Inspector, lower the opacity, then place your text on top. No need to go into Fusion. But the great thing about DaVinci is that it gives you various methods to achieve their desired result. Depending on your preferred work flow, you can get results in either the Edit, Color or Fusion tab.

Bro, Davinci can also synchronize and zoom without a plug-in... resolve makes my editing easy... Once know how to use it... It will save u more time...

And also to add that text effect you can simply add the text and lower the opacity of the video clip in inspector

cool video it helped out a ton with starting out and composing my first soft

Very helpful with all the facts embedded in the video. Dope video!

Davinci resolve has a built in audio sycronizer

I've been waiting sooo long for y'all to find out about resolve and make the switch!

Actually I would give the VFX point to DaVinci because I don't have to switch programs but can do all in the same program and don't have to purchase two times. Having (the possibility) to switch is a disadvantage for me... Then DaVinci would win 5:3 :D

Im So happy to see you guys added DaVinci resolve to the Class. Thank You. I remember asking Somewhere around the start of the pandemic if you guys had ever thought about using resolve. I feel like you listened to me. Rock On. Keep up that Great content.

For that text portion around 5:00 you can do it exactly like Premier. Use a solid color black Then a text + And it's exactly the same. Without having to go to fusion. You o ly really need to go to fusion when doing advanced text/transitions/3d text/effects etc

NLE family reunion: Premiere is the hotshot sibling that thinks they're so cool even though people mostly just put up with them rather than like them Resolve is the cousin that is actually doing pretty well for themselves but is pretty low key and doesn't like to talk very much Final cut tries to tell people about how much they've improved from "That one time" but still won't work with half the family Avid is the grumpy old man complaining about "Kids these days" Vegas is...still there?

I appreciate how there’s no ads, thanks.

Thanks for the comparison. Going to upgrade from iMovie and was leaning towards Da Vinci. Now I know it’s the right choice.

is the dynamic link point a joke? you have a better version of AE inside the programm and if you want there is a link feature to standalone fusion. you have the complete Creative Cloude in one program no need for dynamic link

Been using resolve because of it’s node based natur, as soon as you get used to it, it’s far faaaar more powerful!

Great video. I am a novice and just started making content and have always used Resolve. Love it, but so much more to learn... checking out your courses. 👍

You can do that text example in the normal editing tab as well. Just open up the fx tab and drag solid color then text over your original clips

Dynamic link? You can do everything inside Resolve you don't need to switch programs!

Problem with Every premiere vs resolve video. KZfaqr doesnt fully understand the software . Same with this video. You are wrong at so many levels I dont know where to begin with.

This is really informative, I've been using resolve for about a year now, but I still didn't know how to use the nodes, so thank you for that

Thanks for your easy to follow explanations

I can't wait to check out the course but I'm still going through the earlier courses. Thanks so much for this! Also what laptop was that?? There was something going across the top of your keyboard

DaVinci Resolve has free tuts on their website

Your actually the goat, This helped so much thank you.

Mad respect for actually taking the time to learn Davinci Resolve. 🙌🏼

I switched to Resolve. After Effects held me back for a long time. But Fusion was not that hard to learn. Also, my rtx 3060 ti is super fast and it's a powerful tool for Resolve. Just switched didn't look back and never regretted. P.s the updates are coming like crazy for Resolve. Now it's just a matter of time it beats both premiere and FCP conbined.

You have a pro level fusion compositor, that almost eliminates the need for After effects completely and you give the Point to premiere?

You can add effects to clips in the edit page, also there is the adjustment clip you can use on the timeline. For your layers.

very good video. it gave me a great understanding.

Being a editor of both, I was aware you where going to give this a draw! Hell no, DaVinci takes the cake and eats it! It's true the learning curve is a bit cumbersome but once you get used to it, it's worth it in every way. Besides, with the txt editing layer you talk about, it's been introduced in Resolve 17 and prior to that I had extentions for that. I must admit there are some things I prefer in to have but, it's a matter of time.

There is actually a drag zoom pro alike feature in Davinci, in dynamic zoom

Very helpful! Thank you!

thanks for all this great information. i think it's important to learn all the editing programs so that you can make yourself 1) more competitive for let's say working for a company that needs you to edit 2) more knowledgable when it comes to editing in general. Learning different ways to skin a cat will only help you in the end

If you’re married to Premiere you should definitely cheat with Resolve..

Resolve is the king of free video editing. I have encountered little to no bugs and its faster than premier.

Thanks for the comparison London.. I've got a lot of insights from this video.. thanks for sharing 👊

Great video, I’ll be using both

After this video, I'm definitely trying DaVinci Resolve. Because most important stuff for me is color grading stuff. But may i ask this, I'm using magic bullet looks most of the time. And as you described in the video, DaVinci Resolve is much more powerful than premiere pro when the topic comes to color grading. But can you compare m.bullet looks vs DaVinci? I found that m.bullet is really powerful tool, too. You can say that they and see yourself but I'd like to have some professional's opinion about this. And love you guys ❤️

I think between the lines DaVinci has won the competition.

thanks man you are great. you got a new subscriber :)

Great video! You just earned a new subscriber

I like the Nodes in Davinci because other Professional Programs Like Blender for 3D Models use nodes too.

I don't understand why dynamic Link is a feature in comparison to Fusion, which is natively built INTO Resolve, without the need to switch software😂

Very helpful Video as always .

Awesome video, thank you 👌🏽👍🏽👏🏽
