I am trying to go through the tutorial on Clean Plate + Delta Keyer. My footage is poorly lit, if there is a better method please advise. The main issue is, no matter what footage I use, once I add the Clean Plate - all is wiped from the screen, not just the green area. Please advise if I am doing something wrong. Many thanks.

In need of desperate help. I have a project that was done in 1:1 aspect ratio where I did a lot of retouching work on a bunch of clips. I now have to copy the work that I did in the 1:1 project on all the clips to the clips in a 16:9 aspect ratio. Is this possible without redoing all of the work that I have done? When I copy the nodes from the 1:1 project and place them in the 16:9 project clips, the sizing is off and I'm not sure how to adjust so that the paint work fits and work on the new 16:9 aspect ratio. I've tried transforms but it just changes the entire image.

Hi Guys Just started learning editing, I am currently using DR 17 Studio and currently working on a personal projects, Im doing a little motion graphics in fusion however i couldn'tfind the setting or cannot solve the issue that i am currently facing. Problem is that the color does not match from fusion and the edit page. There is no footage involve, Just a fusion composition. if i create a white background in fusion then go back to the edit page, the white background seems to become a grey on when in edit. it is also the same with every color that i choose. anyone knows how to fix this or is it a bug? would appreciate any help thanks

Would love a in deep tutorial on how to track correctly paint nodes in Fusion I need to clone out parts of a clip in motion and dont know how to solve it in Fusion In Mocha Pro I can do a plate track it and done but in Fusion everything is so complicated an unintuitive that I get stuck Its really frustrating how Fusion is so unfriendly to sporadic users I love all the other sections of Resolve but Fusion is a headache. It would be helpful if Lowepost can create some tutorials with different scenarios on how to track and clone out objects in Fusion Youtube videos have lead me to a dead end so far.

I was exporting a fusion composition and Resolve crashed. On reopening all of the nodes within the composition have gone (except MediaOut). They are also missing from all backups. I've been working on the project for a week so it has been saved many times. Does anyone have a clue? I'm running on a 16 core MacPro 160gb VegaII32gb

Hi Everyone, I'm trying to build a flicker effect in Fusion. I know there a tool for it but it doesn't behave like I want. (Or I don't know to use it properly) I want a random change of the exposure or the gamma but between a min and max value I can choose. I want the values to only go lower than the original exposure. (never higher) Do you know a expression for that? I've tried few things and I've looked online , I've also compared it with the tools in Flame and AE but I failed... Thank you very much. 🙂

I've recently written an article for the frame.io blog about vfx workflows with Nuke, Flame, After Effects and Resolve/Fusion. Would love any feedback or perspectives on the information: https://blog.frame.io/2020/02/17/vfx-workflow-best-practices/ Thanks, love this site!

Hey! So I made a social media lower third but when i put it into a higher resolution time line the logo doesnt scale like the rest of the macro does. I am using SVG files for the Logo but still have this problem. Does anyone have any clue how to fix this?

Hi! Maybe this is discussed earlier in this forum but I couldn't find it on the page. If you, like me, come from Nuke and need to do comp in fusion one big problem is that the shortcuts are not the same which makes life a living hell. Found this on github which solves this problem: https://github.com/statixVFX/nuke2fusion This works with Fusion standalone and Resolve with integrated Fusion. Just copy the folders from the zip to both: /users/xxxxxx/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/Fusion/ /users/xxxxxx/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/Fusion/ Works Like a charm!

Hi. Have not posted long time here but now i feel to need to spread some words on my digital desktop. I wonder if anyone has lately some experience on subject? I'm doing one job now where 90% is VFX in one way or another and now i do all the versioning manually. Sure we could set up fusion connect to all of this but we have not done this yet. Probably will test with next job. As all VFX come from post house using mainly Nuke then it would be reasonable to have a go on Generations but as there is not much information about it at the moment floating it got me wondering if it would help me at all? Any ideas or experiences would be helpful. Maybe i'm also barking under wrong tree and should go with some other grading platform that would connect better to Nuke or Nuke Studio? Ideally i would like at tool that would plug in to Nuke somehow or Fusion in that matter but non of this seems to exist now or possibly i'm missing it somehow. There has been a link for video that describes this clever way of getting Nuke to render directly to Resolve timeline as Fusion connect asset but i can ot find that video now. The basic concept was that nuke could render to pre set folder structure that had version number in file or folder name and in Resolve those would pop up as new asses on premade place. So in that way it is really doable it seems. One thing that comes to mind is that way would not update external matte and would still need some manual hand holding but all other aspects would be covered like versioning from shot to shot. Sure BM has long way to go on that matter i would say. I'm not really keen to go with Nuke Studio for now. I i'm really hoping that i could one day grade on the VFX assets directly somehow in one way or the other. Now it is done either layering or external mattes which also works but not that super fine as i would like it to be. I have done both commercials and features that are really vfx heavy and in a way it is a mess every time if you do it manually. Sure it is not that super bad but annoying still. My vfx house was nice in that sense that all the naming and lengths and color science were spot on and clean. Then again i come to another matter. RED settings in nuke is another layer of things you have to manage if you do not render out plates yourself. We will see if aces will make that part better for us next time. All the ideas pointers and discussions are very welcome here on the topic despite the origin doing it in Resolve.
