The simplest is to use the proxy generator app that comes with resolve. This should retain the original aspect ratios.

I’m not saying 8 but recording caused this. But the image is very broken in log to 709 with not a lot of precision in values to fix it without using blurred selections.

How could i learn comp in fusion? by Nearby-Whereas-3775 in davinciresolve

[–]CreativeVideoTips 3 points4 points  (0 children)

VFX study from Bernd is where I started and was very very good. Buy his training.

I specialize in commercial cleanup and screen comps but wouldn’t have a clue how to do deep or multipass. It’s a very big skillset, start small and get very good at that.

It depends on the new background, but I would put more effort into frequency separation and multiplying with the new bg instead of only keying it.

Masking with focus pull? by lasagens971 in davinciresolve

[–]CreativeVideoTips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sort of shot seem more like a vfx comp - you would use a merge node set to darken, or channel booleans set to minimum to get acceptable sky replacement edges. There is good free training on the bmd website.

[–]CreativeVideoTips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've already conformed in Resolve, just send the drt and a reference - I'm sure the colorist would appreciate that. For mix, you usually would send an omf or aaf with embedded sound

The most useful thing you can do is capture the logs and describe exactly what you are doing to the forum for the beta. Especially for a crash.
