- Multi User Collaboration
DaVinci Resolve is the only solution that lets you grow
and build your own multi user post production studio! The project libraries are built for real time
local and remote collaboration. While the Blackmagic Cloud website lets you host and access your
projects from anywhere in the world. Now you can collaborate with editors, colorists, visual effects
artists, and sound engineers all working together at the same time. Best of all, you no longer have
to import and export files, translate projects, lose work, or conform and manage changes. DaVinci
Resolve is the only application in the world that lets everyone work together in parallel on the
same project and at the same time!
- All In One Solution for Post Production
DaVinci Resolve is divided into “pages”,
each of which gives you a dedicated workspace and tools for a specific task. Editing is done on the
cut and edit pages, visual effects and motion graphics on the Fusion page, color correction on the
color page, audio on the Fairlight page, and media organization and output on the media and deliver
pages. All it takes is a single click to switch between tasks!
- Color – Hollywood’s favorite color corrector!
The DaVinci Resolve color page is
Hollywood’s most advanced color corrector and has been used to color and finish more high end
feature films and television shows than any other system! It’s also approachable with exciting new
features designed to make it easier for new users to get great results while they continue to learn
the advanced tools. For example, new primary control sliders will be familiar to anyone that’s used
image editing software, making it easy to adjust contrast, temperature, midtone detail, saturation
and more. The color page has an incredible range of primary and secondary color grading features
including PowerWindows™, qualifiers, tracking, advanced HDR grading tools and more!
- Media and Delivery – Incredibly wide format support, finishing and mastering!
The
media and delivery pages have everything you need to import, manage and deliver final projects.
While you can import and organize footage into bins on both the cut and edit pages, the media page
gives you a dedicated full screen workspace so you can focus on preparing footage, syncing clips,
organizing footage into bins and adding metadata before you start editing. The media page also lets
you clone camera media cards for backup purposes. The quick export tool lets you output and upload
files to YouTube, Vimeo and Twitter from anywhere in the software, but the deliver page gives you
total control over all encoding options and formats, along with a render queue for exporting
multiple jobs!

Resolve FX in categories such as blurs, light effects, noise, image restoration, beauty enhancement,

primary adjustment controls and buttons for playback and navigation. The DaVinci Resolve Mini Panel
