0:00:00.000,0:00:03.680 0:00:03.680,0:00:05.160 CHRIS: Hi, I'm Chris. 0:00:05.160,0:00:08.430 I'm an editor and a Blackmagic[br]certified master trainer. 0:00:08.430,0:00:10.250 And in this video,[br]we're going to look 0:00:10.250,0:00:12.230 at some of the effects[br]that can easily 0:00:12.230,0:00:15.050 be achieved in the Edit Page. 0:00:15.050,0:00:18.060 I'm just going to start by[br]restoring a Project Archive. 0:00:18.060,0:00:20.990 If you right click in an empty[br]space in the project manager, 0:00:20.990,0:00:25.280 and choose the Restore[br]Project Archive option-- 0:00:25.280,0:00:29.870 If you then navigate to[br]the Edit Page Effects.dra, 0:00:29.870,0:00:32.665 you'll have downloaded from[br]the website to follow along. 0:00:32.665,0:00:38.030 0:00:38.030,0:00:39.990 Once the archive[br]has been restored, 0:00:39.990,0:00:42.640 simply double click[br]it to open it up. 0:00:42.640,0:00:45.980 0:00:45.980,0:00:48.740 Here, we've got a project[br]that's got four simple examples 0:00:48.740,0:00:50.300 of a variety of[br]different effects 0:00:50.300,0:00:53.040 that you may find useful[br]in your day-to-day work. 0:00:53.040,0:00:55.550 I'm going to start by[br]just simply resizing 0:00:55.550,0:00:56.900 the interface slightly. 0:00:56.900,0:00:58.400 I'm going to hold[br]down the Shift key 0:00:58.400,0:01:00.410 and use the scroll[br]wheel on my mouse 0:01:00.410,0:01:04.849 in order to be able to resize[br]the timeline track height. 0:01:04.849,0:01:08.450 Also, it's useful to make sure[br]that you're in full-extent zoom. 0:01:08.450,0:01:11.000 This way, you'll always be[br]able to see the full duration 0:01:11.000,0:01:12.740 of your timeline. 0:01:12.740,0:01:15.140 As you can see, what[br]we have here is, 0:01:15.140,0:01:18.470 we have a simple opening title[br]for our Living in the Age 0:01:18.470,0:01:21.290 of Airplanes documentary film. 0:01:21.290,0:01:24.860 In this case, we've actually[br]got a fusion title together 0:01:24.860,0:01:27.620 with three images, which[br]have been composited 0:01:27.620,0:01:29.690 using a series of mattes. 0:01:29.690,0:01:33.000 The mattes can either be a[br]simple black-and-white image, 0:01:33.000,0:01:36.600 or actually have an image that[br]has a built-in alpha channel. 0:01:36.600,0:01:38.360 Either way, you[br]can use it in order 0:01:38.360,0:01:41.570 to be able to put that[br]texture into the image 0:01:41.570,0:01:43.730 that you're using. 0:01:43.730,0:01:46.250 So we're actually going[br]to add a separate image 0:01:46.250,0:01:50.600 in the bottom right-hand[br]quadrant of the timeline viewer. 0:01:50.600,0:01:54.840 So first of all, we need to edit[br]that image into the timeline. 0:01:54.840,0:01:58.790 If you simply right click on any[br]of the timeline track headers 0:01:58.790,0:02:01.850 and choose Add Tracks,[br]this will enable 0:02:01.850,0:02:04.640 you to add multiple different[br]tracks for either video 0:02:04.640,0:02:06.930 or audio, depending[br]on your need. 0:02:06.930,0:02:09.300 We only want one video track. 0:02:09.300,0:02:13.580 So just change the number[br]of audio tracks to zero. 0:02:13.580,0:02:17.870 We also want the track to be[br]inserted at a specific position. 0:02:17.870,0:02:23.750 Change the insert position[br]to above Archive 3. 0:02:23.750,0:02:27.560 And choose Add Tracks. 0:02:27.560,0:02:30.170 This creates a new track in[br]exactly the right position 0:02:30.170,0:02:31.100 on the timeline. 0:02:31.100,0:02:32.600 And it just means[br]that we don't have 0:02:32.600,0:02:35.060 to move clips up or[br]down between tracks 0:02:35.060,0:02:39.500 in order to position them in[br]the hierarchy of the timeline. 0:02:39.500,0:02:44.810 Select the V5 button in order[br]to target our edit onto the V5 0:02:44.810,0:02:48.170 track, and just press X[br]to mark the full duration 0:02:48.170,0:02:50.030 of the timeline clips. 0:02:50.030,0:02:53.930 In the compositing bin,[br]select the media bin 0:02:53.930,0:02:57.890 and find the clip,[br]Archival_Air_Races1. 0:02:57.890,0:03:01.040 Double click to load[br]it into the source. 0:03:01.040,0:03:02.930 Now, we're actually[br]going to do what we call 0:03:02.930,0:03:04.710 a fit-to-fill edit for this. 0:03:04.710,0:03:07.490 And what will happen is,[br]Resolve will automatically 0:03:07.490,0:03:10.010 adjust the speed of the[br]clip in order to fit in 0:03:10.010,0:03:11.910 and the out points[br]on the timeline. 0:03:11.910,0:03:13.650 Because we're using[br]the whole clip, 0:03:13.650,0:03:16.190 we don't actually need to[br]set any in or out points 0:03:16.190,0:03:17.810 on the source viewer. 0:03:17.810,0:03:20.150 Simply take the clip[br]from the Source Viewer 0:03:20.150,0:03:22.340 and drag it across to[br]the Timeline Viewer, 0:03:22.340,0:03:24.080 and choose Fit to Fill. 0:03:24.080,0:03:26.870 And the clip is edited[br]at the correct duration 0:03:26.870,0:03:30.080 and on the correct[br]track in the timeline. 0:03:30.080,0:03:33.530 Instead of adding more tracks[br]than we need to this timeline, 0:03:33.530,0:03:36.170 in order to keep it simple,[br]what we're going to do is, 0:03:36.170,0:03:40.080 we're actually going to convert[br]this clip into a compound clip. 0:03:40.080,0:03:42.890 This means that we can then[br]step into the compound clip, 0:03:42.890,0:03:47.030 and add the elements we need[br]without overly complicating 0:03:47.030,0:03:49.430 the timeline that[br]we're working in. 0:03:49.430,0:03:53.990 In the Media Pool, select[br]the Compound Clips Bin. 0:03:53.990,0:03:56.160 This means we're going to[br]create the compound clip. 0:03:56.160,0:03:58.280 It's going to go into[br]this bin, along with all 0:03:58.280,0:04:01.040 the other compound[br]clips for this project. 0:04:01.040,0:04:04.820 In the timeline, right click[br]the clip on the V5 track, 0:04:04.820,0:04:06.865 and choose New Compound Clip. 0:04:06.865,0:04:09.500 0:04:09.500,0:04:13.010 Name this Archive 4. 0:04:13.010,0:04:15.140 Click Create. 0:04:15.140,0:04:17.730 By placing this clip[br]in a compound clip, 0:04:17.730,0:04:20.839 we can now open the compound[br]clip in its own timeline. 0:04:20.839,0:04:25.760 From the Timeline View[br]Options pop-up menu, 0:04:25.760,0:04:28.766 Enable Stacked Timelines. 0:04:28.766,0:04:31.670 0:04:31.670,0:04:35.930 Then right click Archive[br]4 in the timeline, 0:04:35.930,0:04:39.830 and choose Open In Timeline. 0:04:39.830,0:04:42.560 The compound clip is now[br]opened in a separate tab 0:04:42.560,0:04:45.110 in its own timeline,[br]next to the main timeline 0:04:45.110,0:04:46.230 that we're working in. 0:04:46.230,0:04:48.230 This means it's just[br]an easy way that we 0:04:48.230,0:04:52.220 can switch back and forth[br]between the different timelines. 0:04:52.220,0:04:55.100 We now need to add the[br]matte to this compound clip. 0:04:55.100,0:04:58.580 To do that, we need to create[br]a new video track below the one 0:04:58.580,0:05:00.200 that we've currently got. 0:05:00.200,0:05:03.710 So right click,[br]Choose Add Tracks. 0:05:03.710,0:05:06.950 Change the number of[br]audio tracks to zero, 0:05:06.950,0:05:11.600 and the insert position for the[br]video track below first track. 0:05:11.600,0:05:14.780 Click Add Tracks. 0:05:14.780,0:05:20.780 From the mattes bin,[br]select Matte 4A. 0:05:20.780,0:05:23.060 The other three mattes that[br]are used in this project 0:05:23.060,0:05:25.950 are actually just simple[br]black-and-white images. 0:05:25.950,0:05:28.010 And they're labeled Luma. 0:05:28.010,0:05:30.500 When we composite this[br]image, we will actually 0:05:30.500,0:05:33.810 set the composite mode[br]for this clip to be alpha. 0:05:33.810,0:05:36.540 If you're working with a[br]simple black-and-white image, 0:05:36.540,0:05:38.720 you just set it to Luma. 0:05:38.720,0:05:40.940 Open that clip in[br]the Source Viewer. 0:05:40.940,0:05:44.890 And then edit it into[br]the Video track 1. 0:05:44.890,0:05:46.890 You might just need to[br]trim the clip at the end, 0:05:46.890,0:05:51.560 just so that it lines up with[br]the end of our archive shot. 0:05:51.560,0:05:56.690 Now select the alpha[br]clip on track 1. 0:05:56.690,0:06:00.590 Open up the Inspector,[br]and scroll down 0:06:00.590,0:06:02.870 to the composite area. 0:06:02.870,0:06:10.550 Change the composite mode[br]from normal to alpha. 0:06:10.550,0:06:12.950 That's told Resolve[br]that we now want to use 0:06:12.950,0:06:17.000 that matte as an alpha matte. 0:06:17.000,0:06:19.310 Select the clip on[br]the video 2 track, 0:06:19.310,0:06:22.260 and in the Inspector[br]Composite Controls, 0:06:22.260,0:06:29.390 change the composite[br]mode to foreground. 0:06:29.390,0:06:31.910 As you can see, the[br]video image is now 0:06:31.910,0:06:34.130 using the underlying[br]matte in order 0:06:34.130,0:06:37.340 to be able to create a much[br]more interesting frame. 0:06:37.340,0:06:41.310 If we now switch back to our[br]Title Composite Timeline, 0:06:41.310,0:06:43.850 you can see just how[br]that image is now being 0:06:43.850,0:06:46.160 composited onto the background. 0:06:46.160,0:06:48.480 At the moment, it's still[br]looking a little big. 0:06:48.480,0:06:50.960 So we just need to use the[br]transform controls in order 0:06:50.960,0:06:54.410 to be able to resize[br]it and reposition it. 0:06:54.410,0:06:57.720 Make sure you select[br]Archive 4 in the timeline. 0:06:57.720,0:07:03.560 Then, from on-screen controls,[br]enable the Transform. 0:07:03.560,0:07:05.700 Using on-screen[br]transform controls, 0:07:05.700,0:07:09.955 simply resize the image, and[br]just move it into position. 0:07:09.955,0:07:16.010 0:07:16.010,0:07:17.840 Once you're happy[br]with the position 0:07:17.840,0:07:23.330 of your composited image, turn[br]off your on-screen controls, 0:07:23.330,0:07:27.595 allow the composite to cache,[br]and then play back the opening. 0:07:27.595,0:07:31.280 0:07:31.280,0:07:34.130 This is just one example of[br]some of the compositing features 0:07:34.130,0:07:36.420 that we have available[br]to us in the Edit Page. 0:07:36.420,0:07:40.490 But we can do far more with some[br]of the built-in resolve effects. 0:07:40.490,0:07:42.290 In this case, we're[br]actually going 0:07:42.290,0:07:44.180 to configure the interface. 0:07:44.180,0:07:47.690 First of all, close[br]down your Media Pool. 0:07:47.690,0:07:49.840 Open up your Effects Library. 0:07:49.840,0:07:53.350 And just make sure that[br]your Effects Library is in 0:07:53.350,0:07:56.020 expand mode. 0:07:56.020,0:07:58.570 With the Inspector[br]open, also, make 0:07:58.570,0:08:00.970 sure the Inspector[br]is in expand mode. 0:08:00.970,0:08:06.130 This way, it's easy for[br]us to locate the effects 0:08:06.130,0:08:08.540 that we need in the[br]Effects Library List. 0:08:08.540,0:08:11.523 And also we've got[br]a larger inspector. 0:08:11.523,0:08:12.940 So we don't have[br]to keep scrolling 0:08:12.940,0:08:16.240 up and down the controls. 0:08:16.240,0:08:17.980 Select the timeline[br]to make sure you're 0:08:17.980,0:08:19.780 looking at the Timeline Viewer. 0:08:19.780,0:08:26.290 And from the Options menu,[br]choose Timeline Sort Order 0:08:26.290,0:08:28.690 Alphabetical. 0:08:28.690,0:08:32.270 Then, from the[br]Timeline pop-up menu, 0:08:32.270,0:08:34.270 you can choose the[br]appropriate timeline 0:08:34.270,0:08:36.490 from the alphabetical order. 0:08:36.490,0:08:38.590 The default for[br]this timeline list 0:08:38.590,0:08:41.409 is actually to display the[br]timelines at the top of the list 0:08:41.409,0:08:43.070 that you've used most recently. 0:08:43.070,0:08:45.910 However, in this case, it's[br]actually more appropriate 0:08:45.910,0:08:48.730 that we actually find the[br]timeline by the name, hence 0:08:48.730,0:08:52.630 the reason why we need to[br]organize it alphabetically. 0:08:52.630,0:08:56.980 Choose the 3D Keyer Timeline. 0:08:56.980,0:09:00.160 This is an example of a task[br]that many editors are required 0:09:00.160,0:09:02.400 to perform, a green-screen key. 0:09:02.400,0:09:05.950 0:09:05.950,0:09:10.480 Select the clip on the timeline,[br]and from the list in the Effects 0:09:10.480,0:09:12.960 Library, select your filters. 0:09:12.960,0:09:15.490 0:09:15.490,0:09:17.740 Scroll through the[br]list of effects 0:09:17.740,0:09:21.250 to find the Resolve[br]Effects Key category. 0:09:21.250,0:09:25.150 The 3D Keyer is actually the[br]same keyer that you may use 0:09:25.150,0:09:29.260 in the Color Page to do[br]some keying previously. 0:09:29.260,0:09:30.880 Select the 3D Keyer. 0:09:30.880,0:09:32.980 And double click[br]it in order to be 0:09:32.980,0:09:35.950 able to add the keyer to[br]the clip in the timeline. 0:09:35.950,0:09:38.530 You can tell that the clip[br]now has the effect on it 0:09:38.530,0:09:42.310 from the little FX badge in[br]the bottom left-hand corner. 0:09:42.310,0:09:46.750 In the inspector, switch[br]to the Effects tab. 0:09:46.750,0:09:48.490 The first thing[br]that we need to do 0:09:48.490,0:09:51.620 is actually sample the[br]green screen for removal. 0:09:51.620,0:09:55.990 First of all, we need to come[br]to our Open Effects Overlay 0:09:55.990,0:09:58.840 on-screen controls. 0:09:58.840,0:10:02.950 Then click and hold the[br]mouse, and draw a line 0:10:02.950,0:10:06.730 across the area of green[br]that you want to sample. 0:10:06.730,0:10:10.340 Instant results--[br]well, not exactly. 0:10:10.340,0:10:13.540 In this case, there is actually[br]a little bit of green fringing 0:10:13.540,0:10:16.340 that hasn't been picked[br]up in that initial sample. 0:10:16.340,0:10:17.620 But not to worry. 0:10:17.620,0:10:19.570 If I just come back[br]into this image 0:10:19.570,0:10:23.330 here, and click and drag on[br]the edge, near that fringing, 0:10:23.330,0:10:26.470 you can see I can remove a[br]little bit more of the green. 0:10:26.470,0:10:28.850 Also, on the edge[br]of the image here, 0:10:28.850,0:10:31.130 there's a little bit of[br]fringing that I can see. 0:10:31.130,0:10:34.400 So again, I'll just make[br]another selection there. 0:10:34.400,0:10:37.120 And that certainly got[br]rid of most of the green 0:10:37.120,0:10:38.180 within the image. 0:10:38.180,0:10:41.260 And I can now see the[br]background plate underneath, 0:10:41.260,0:10:42.800 where I can see the planet. 0:10:42.800,0:10:46.150 We can still refine[br]this even more. 0:10:46.150,0:10:49.450 In the Inspector, find[br]the Output Controls 0:10:49.450,0:10:53.290 and change the Output pop-up[br]menu from final composite 0:10:53.290,0:10:57.970 to Alpha Highlight[br]Black-and-White. 0:10:57.970,0:11:01.610 This actually shows us which[br]areas of the image are solid, 0:11:01.610,0:11:05.500 which are represented in white,[br]and which areas are transparent, 0:11:05.500,0:11:06.882 represented in black. 0:11:06.882,0:11:09.340 You can see, I've still got a[br]little bit of fringing around 0:11:09.340,0:11:11.170 the edge of the window. 0:11:11.170,0:11:14.560 In the Inspector, I can use[br]the Matte Finesse Controls 0:11:14.560,0:11:16.690 in order to be able[br]to first of all, clean 0:11:16.690,0:11:20.770 the black part of the matte,[br]and then the white part, 0:11:20.770,0:11:24.460 just to help clean up[br]that matte a little bit. 0:11:24.460,0:11:26.710 As you can see, there[br]are many more controls 0:11:26.710,0:11:29.120 for finessing your[br]matte, but in this case, 0:11:29.120,0:11:31.540 a simple tweak is all we need. 0:11:31.540,0:11:36.070 Change the Output pop-up[br]menu back to final composite. 0:11:36.070,0:11:42.490 And then disable your Open[br]Effects on-screen controls. 0:11:42.490,0:11:44.350 Scrub through the shot? 0:11:44.350,0:11:48.250 Yes, we've got something[br]that's kind of working. 0:11:48.250,0:11:52.580 However, there's a lot of[br]green spill in this shot. 0:11:52.580,0:11:54.640 The reflection of[br]the green screen 0:11:54.640,0:11:57.470 is actually being reflected[br]in the guy's uniform, 0:11:57.470,0:11:59.620 and also in his skin tones. 0:11:59.620,0:12:03.910 Thankfully, the 3D Keyer[br]actually has a simple control 0:12:03.910,0:12:06.770 in order to be able to[br]eliminate spill like this. 0:12:06.770,0:12:08.920 Simply come up to[br]the Keyer Options, 0:12:08.920,0:12:12.040 and check the Despill box. 0:12:12.040,0:12:13.650 That's cleaned up[br]that image nicely. 0:12:13.650,0:12:16.300 0:12:16.300,0:12:18.790 Simple compositing[br]tasks like this 0:12:18.790,0:12:20.620 are often things that[br]many editors need 0:12:20.620,0:12:22.430 to do on a day-to-day basis. 0:12:22.430,0:12:24.580 Another thing that[br]we're often asked to do 0:12:24.580,0:12:27.310 is sometimes to be able[br]to replace a screen that 0:12:27.310,0:12:28.600 might be at an angle. 0:12:28.600,0:12:31.010 From the Timeline[br]Viewer pop-up menu, 0:12:31.010,0:12:33.820 choose the Transform Timeline. 0:12:33.820,0:12:37.840 This is a short scene of the[br]owner of the Citizen Chain 0:12:37.840,0:12:40.460 Cyclery arriving for work. 0:12:40.460,0:12:44.020 And in this case, we've got the[br]Citizen Chain logo composited 0:12:44.020,0:12:45.700 over the opening shot. 0:12:45.700,0:12:48.670 What we want to be able to do[br]here, is to actually composite 0:12:48.670,0:12:53.060 the Citizen Chain logo into[br]the window of the shop, 0:12:53.060,0:12:55.690 using the new Transform effect. 0:12:55.690,0:12:59.740 Simply select the Citizen Chain[br]Logo Graphic on the timeline. 0:12:59.740,0:13:02.420 And then from your[br]Effects library, 0:13:02.420,0:13:07.630 scroll down until you find[br]the Resolve Effects Transform 0:13:07.630,0:13:10.330 category. 0:13:10.330,0:13:12.460 Double click the[br]Transform Effect. 0:13:12.460,0:13:17.260 And then access the Effects[br]tab in the Inspector. 0:13:17.260,0:13:20.230 At first glance, it might appear[br]that this effect has simply 0:13:20.230,0:13:21.970 replicated some of[br]the controls you 0:13:21.970,0:13:24.860 may be familiar with[br]in the Video Inspector. 0:13:24.860,0:13:27.280 However, there are a[br]number of different modes 0:13:27.280,0:13:31.060 in which you can[br]actually use this effect. 0:13:31.060,0:13:36.700 Re-enable your Effect[br]Overlays on-screen controls. 0:13:36.700,0:13:39.610 And change the control mode[br]for the Transform Effect 0:13:39.610,0:13:42.285 from Sliders to[br]Interactive Canvas. 0:13:42.285,0:13:45.340 0:13:45.340,0:13:47.890 You're now presented with a[br]grid, which you can actually 0:13:47.890,0:13:52.450 use in order to be able to[br]twist and distort this graphic. 0:13:52.450,0:13:55.370 Using the corner[br]quadrants of the grid, 0:13:55.370,0:13:59.320 simply click and drag[br]on-screen controls in order 0:13:59.320,0:14:02.470 to be able to position[br]the corners of the graphic 0:14:02.470,0:14:04.140 into the corners of the window. 0:14:04.140,0:14:08.860 0:14:08.860,0:14:10.790 Try and get it as[br]close as possible, 0:14:10.790,0:14:13.270 but don't worry too[br]much if you can't. 0:14:13.270,0:14:15.130 Don't forget, though,[br]you can always 0:14:15.130,0:14:17.680 zoom in, using the scroll[br]wheel on your mouse. 0:14:17.680,0:14:19.850 And holding down the[br]middle mouse button, 0:14:19.850,0:14:25.390 you can always change the pan[br]of the image within the viewer. 0:14:25.390,0:14:27.640 When you're finished,[br]simply press Z 0:14:27.640,0:14:31.580 in order to be able to fit the[br]image back into the viewer. 0:14:31.580,0:14:34.460 Turn off on-screen[br]controls in order 0:14:34.460,0:14:37.610 to be able to see[br]the composited image. 0:14:37.610,0:14:40.100 We can actually use[br]Composite Modes in order 0:14:40.100,0:14:42.020 to help this image[br]blend a little bit more 0:14:42.020,0:14:44.450 naturally into the background. 0:14:44.450,0:14:48.050 In the Inspector,[br]go to the Video tab. 0:14:48.050,0:14:51.295 And from the Composite section,[br]change the Composite Mode. 0:14:51.295,0:14:57.110 0:14:57.110,0:14:59.450 You could also play[br]with the opacity, 0:14:59.450,0:15:01.880 as well, to make it[br]a little less obvious 0:15:01.880,0:15:04.220 that that graphic is there. 0:15:04.220,0:15:05.640 This is all very well. 0:15:05.640,0:15:07.500 We're helping to[br]sell that image. 0:15:07.500,0:15:11.240 But this is always on the[br]first frame of the shot. 0:15:11.240,0:15:14.010 If I actually play[br]this timeline now, 0:15:14.010,0:15:16.520 you can see that the[br]camera movement actually 0:15:16.520,0:15:19.280 shows up the fact that[br]this image isn't actually 0:15:19.280,0:15:21.860 part of that window. 0:15:21.860,0:15:23.420 Now, the Edit page[br]doesn't actually 0:15:23.420,0:15:25.460 have the advanced[br]tracking functions 0:15:25.460,0:15:27.450 that you would find[br]in the Fusion page, 0:15:27.450,0:15:29.800 but many editors[br]are often happier 0:15:29.800,0:15:32.140 about putting in some[br]keyframes in order 0:15:32.140,0:15:34.940 to be able to manually follow[br]the movement of the camera, 0:15:34.940,0:15:38.440 particularly if that camera[br]movement is smooth enough. 0:15:38.440,0:15:40.930 If I return the playhead[br]back to the beginning 0:15:40.930,0:15:43.510 of this clip in the[br]timeline and return 0:15:43.510,0:15:46.390 to the Effects tab[br]of the Inspector, 0:15:46.390,0:15:52.010 under the Control Options, I've[br]got the Control Canvas Keyframe. 0:15:52.010,0:15:56.140 And I'm just going to simply add[br]a keyframe at the first frame 0:15:56.140,0:15:57.670 of this clip. 0:15:57.670,0:15:59.710 I'm going to use[br]the down-arrow key 0:15:59.710,0:16:02.030 to jump to the next edit point. 0:16:02.030,0:16:05.900 But I actually need to see the[br]last frame of this graphic. 0:16:05.900,0:16:08.110 So I'm going to[br]come one frame back. 0:16:08.110,0:16:11.900 And now, if I re-enable[br]on-screen controls, 0:16:11.900,0:16:17.140 I can now change the position[br]of each of those corner points. 0:16:17.140,0:16:19.810 And what this will do[br]is, it will actually 0:16:19.810,0:16:24.490 record the changes in a[br]new keyframe automatically. 0:16:24.490,0:16:27.340 Disable your on-screen[br]effects, return the playhead 0:16:27.340,0:16:30.210 to the beginning of the[br]timeline, and play back. 0:16:30.210,0:16:34.720 0:16:34.720,0:16:37.270 It's simple compositing[br]tasks like this 0:16:37.270,0:16:39.640 that as editors, we[br]often need to accomplish 0:16:39.640,0:16:41.210 on a day-to-day basis. 0:16:41.210,0:16:43.270 Now, it doesn't[br]necessarily mean that this 0:16:43.270,0:16:44.750 will be the finished effect. 0:16:44.750,0:16:47.470 Sometimes all we need[br]to do is put together 0:16:47.470,0:16:49.670 a rough approximation[br]of the effect, 0:16:49.670,0:16:51.460 just so that the[br]director understands 0:16:51.460,0:16:54.460 how the shot will work when you[br]hand it off to a visual effects 0:16:54.460,0:16:56.170 artist. 0:16:56.170,0:16:58.060 The next example[br]we're going to look at 0:16:58.060,0:17:01.780 is the new Video Collage Effect. 0:17:01.780,0:17:03.890 From the Timeline[br]Viewer pop-up menu, 0:17:03.890,0:17:08.530 choose the Video[br]Collage Background. 0:17:08.530,0:17:10.390 We actually have[br]a timeline that's 0:17:10.390,0:17:13.970 got four clips, all stacked[br]on top of each other. 0:17:13.970,0:17:16.030 You'll notice that[br]three of those tracks 0:17:16.030,0:17:17.680 are already disabled. 0:17:17.680,0:17:20.270 The image in the first[br]track is of Chris Lang, 0:17:20.270,0:17:22.720 who's the owner of the[br]Organ Mountain Outfitters 0:17:22.720,0:17:24.069 chain of stores. 0:17:24.069,0:17:27.079 If we enable the clips[br]on video track 2, 0:17:27.079,0:17:29.770 you can see that we have[br]an image of a girl walking 0:17:29.770,0:17:31.900 through a canyon. 0:17:31.900,0:17:36.760 On V3, we actually have a[br]wide shot of a mountain. 0:17:36.760,0:17:41.440 And on V4, we actually have[br]this rather wonderful image 0:17:41.440,0:17:44.350 of Organ Mountain[br]from the distance. 0:17:44.350,0:17:46.690 Now, we actually want to[br]use this topmost image 0:17:46.690,0:17:47.870 as the background. 0:17:47.870,0:17:51.220 And in traditional compositing,[br]what we would normally do is, 0:17:51.220,0:17:53.410 have this as the[br]background image 0:17:53.410,0:17:55.370 at the bottom of the Layers. 0:17:55.370,0:17:58.130 But that's not how the[br]video collage works. 0:17:58.130,0:18:00.670 The video collage works[br]in the background mode 0:18:00.670,0:18:04.600 by effectively creating holes[br]in this image, from which we 0:18:04.600,0:18:07.150 can see the underlying shots. 0:18:07.150,0:18:10.720 So in this case, I'm going[br]to select the clip on V4. 0:18:10.720,0:18:15.080 From my Resolve Effects[br]Transform category, 0:18:15.080,0:18:18.310 I'm going to find the[br]Video Collage effect, 0:18:18.310,0:18:21.190 and double click to[br]apply it to that selected 0:18:21.190,0:18:22.750 clip in the timeline. 0:18:22.750,0:18:25.990 As you can now see, it's[br]almost looking through a window 0:18:25.990,0:18:28.600 frame of the underlying shot. 0:18:28.600,0:18:32.290 But before I start to position[br]the lower clips within each 0:18:32.290,0:18:34.510 of those little holes,[br]what I want to do 0:18:34.510,0:18:38.950 is actually customize the layout[br]of what we call the tiles. 0:18:38.950,0:18:40.990 In the Effects[br]Inspector, you can 0:18:40.990,0:18:43.880 see that you've got the[br]controls for the video collage. 0:18:43.880,0:18:49.450 And they're actually in two[br]tabs, Globals and Tiles. 0:18:49.450,0:18:51.580 Click the Preview[br]Layout in order 0:18:51.580,0:18:54.380 to be able to preview[br]each of the tiles. 0:18:54.380,0:18:57.160 You can change the number[br]of columns and rows 0:18:57.160,0:18:58.820 by using the sliders. 0:18:58.820,0:19:02.390 So for example, if I[br]wanted many images here, 0:19:02.390,0:19:04.450 I could actually change[br]the columns and rows 0:19:04.450,0:19:06.850 to the appropriate number. 0:19:06.850,0:19:10.400 I only need two[br]columns and two rows. 0:19:10.400,0:19:15.220 However, I actually want to[br]remove this tile number 4. 0:19:15.220,0:19:16.670 I don't need it. 0:19:16.670,0:19:18.880 And I actually[br]want tile number 2 0:19:18.880,0:19:21.310 to actually be[br]larger and take up 0:19:21.310,0:19:23.860 the position of tile number 4. 0:19:23.860,0:19:26.940 To do that, I'll need to[br]go into the Tiles Control. 0:19:26.940,0:19:29.470 0:19:29.470,0:19:33.160 Click on the Tiles Control,[br]and change the active tile 0:19:33.160,0:19:35.690 to the tile that we[br]want to change first. 0:19:35.690,0:19:37.580 In this case, tile 4. 0:19:37.580,0:19:41.750 If you now click the Manual[br]Tile Management checkbox, 0:19:41.750,0:19:46.120 you can then delete[br]tile number 4. 0:19:46.120,0:19:49.510 Switch to tile number 2. 0:19:49.510,0:19:53.330 And in the Custom Size[br]and Shape controls, 0:19:53.330,0:19:58.510 change the end row to row 2. 0:19:58.510,0:20:02.240 So using a coordinate[br]system of columns and rows, 0:20:02.240,0:20:06.010 you can choose where a[br]particular tile starts 0:20:06.010,0:20:09.190 and where it ends. 0:20:09.190,0:20:13.270 Opening up the Tile Styling,[br]you can choose to add a border. 0:20:13.270,0:20:16.760 I'm going to add a slight[br]border to those tiles. 0:20:16.760,0:20:23.700 I'm also going to change the[br]tile color to a bright green. 0:20:23.700,0:20:26.620 0:20:26.620,0:20:29.860 Opening up the Drop[br]Shadow controls, 0:20:29.860,0:20:33.250 I'm going to increase the[br]strength of the drop shadow 0:20:33.250,0:20:36.670 and the distance[br]of the drop shadow, 0:20:36.670,0:20:39.400 and also adjust the angle[br]so that the drop shadow is 0:20:39.400,0:20:43.090 a little bit more vertically[br]underneath the clip, 0:20:43.090,0:20:47.650 and adding a little bit of blur,[br]just to help soften the shadows. 0:20:47.650,0:20:51.820 The Video Collage also has a[br]series of automatic animations 0:20:51.820,0:20:53.000 that you can apply. 0:20:53.000,0:20:54.700 So you don't need[br]to worry too much 0:20:54.700,0:20:57.680 about getting into complex[br]keyframe animation, 0:20:57.680,0:21:01.570 although you have the ability[br]to be able to do that, as well. 0:21:01.570,0:21:03.940 In the Tile Animation[br]section, I'm 0:21:03.940,0:21:10.480 going to change the Animate[br]pop-up menu to intro only. 0:21:10.480,0:21:15.170 We now have a set of[br]predefined animation presets. 0:21:15.170,0:21:18.290 In this case, I don't want[br]to use the Shrink preset. 0:21:18.290,0:21:21.040 But I do want to use the Fade. 0:21:21.040,0:21:24.350 I'm going to uncheck[br]Shrink and check Fade. 0:21:24.350,0:21:28.100 And I can now specify a[br]duration for that animation. 0:21:28.100,0:21:31.770 In this case, I'm going[br]to set it to 24 frames. 0:21:31.770,0:21:34.420 0:21:34.420,0:21:37.810 Now, you can see I can[br]scrub through the timeline 0:21:37.810,0:21:41.320 in order to be able to[br]preview the animation. 0:21:41.320,0:21:44.600 Now that I've set up the tiles[br]and adjusted the animation, 0:21:44.600,0:21:48.190 it's all ready for me to[br]actually put the images 0:21:48.190,0:21:50.950 into each of those tiles. 0:21:50.950,0:21:53.480 I'm going to uncheck[br]Preview Layout, 0:21:53.480,0:21:57.430 then select the[br]clip on Track V3, 0:21:57.430,0:22:00.970 go into on-screen[br]Transform controls, 0:22:00.970,0:22:04.090 and resize the image[br]so that it sits 0:22:04.090,0:22:10.390 nice and neatly inside the tile[br]in the top left-hand corner. 0:22:10.390,0:22:12.190 The great thing about[br]this is, because I've 0:22:12.190,0:22:14.470 specified the size[br]of the tiles, I 0:22:14.470,0:22:18.910 don't need to be too concerned[br]as to how each of these clips 0:22:18.910,0:22:20.060 is lining up. 0:22:20.060,0:22:22.690 The math that the video[br]collage is creating 0:22:22.690,0:22:26.260 means I just simply need[br]to frame it appropriately. 0:22:26.260,0:22:29.420 Selecting the image on V2, I'm[br]going to do the same again, 0:22:29.420,0:22:35.140 resizing and positioning the[br]image of the girl in the canyon. 0:22:35.140,0:22:37.000 Now, as I set it[br]here, you'll also 0:22:37.000,0:22:39.880 notice that the image[br]is actually encroaching 0:22:39.880,0:22:42.260 into another part of the mask. 0:22:42.260,0:22:45.610 So in this case, I'm going[br]to switch on-screen controls 0:22:45.610,0:22:47.650 to crop. 0:22:47.650,0:22:50.540 And this will then allow[br]me to crop the image 0:22:50.540,0:22:55.870 so that it doesn't actually show[br]in any of the other matte holes. 0:22:55.870,0:23:01.120 I'm now going to select the clip[br]on V1, go back to my Transform, 0:23:01.120,0:23:07.990 and reposition my interviewee,[br]with a little bit of resizing, 0:23:07.990,0:23:11.530 into the mask that[br]I created for him. 0:23:11.530,0:23:13.780 Turning off all the[br]on-screen controls, 0:23:13.780,0:23:17.115 I can now play back the[br]effect to see the results-- 0:23:17.115,0:23:19.380 SPEAKER (ON VIDEO):[br]--aspects of our business. 0:23:19.380,0:23:22.900 CHRIS: So this is one use[br]for our video collage effect. 0:23:22.900,0:23:25.260 But the other way that we[br]can use the video collage 0:23:25.260,0:23:28.830 is to use it to create the[br]individual tiles themselves. 0:23:28.830,0:23:32.560 From your Timeline[br]Viewer pop-up menu, 0:23:32.560,0:23:34.910 choose Video Collage Tiles. 0:23:34.910,0:23:37.800 0:23:37.800,0:23:39.780 Now in this case,[br]we have a timeline 0:23:39.780,0:23:42.730 that's already set up with[br]the Organ Mountain background, 0:23:42.730,0:23:45.420 actually on the Video 1 track. 0:23:45.420,0:23:49.120 We've also got an animated[br]logo that fades in. 0:23:49.120,0:23:52.440 0:23:52.440,0:23:56.910 On Video 3, we've[br]got a compound clip 0:23:56.910,0:24:01.200 of a girl turning towards[br]the camera and smiling. 0:24:01.200,0:24:03.810 Video 4, we've got[br]a man, looking. 0:24:03.810,0:24:06.990 And Video 5, we've got[br]the girl from the canyon, 0:24:06.990,0:24:10.410 walking across the mountain top. 0:24:10.410,0:24:13.890 Now in this case, I'm going[br]to do the setup actually, 0:24:13.890,0:24:17.200 on the first shot of the girl[br]turning towards the camera. 0:24:17.200,0:24:20.550 And then, once we've got the[br]tile set and the animation 0:24:20.550,0:24:23.700 working, we can then simply[br]copy and paste the effect 0:24:23.700,0:24:26.040 to the other clips. 0:24:26.040,0:24:29.280 So I'm just going to[br]leave the clip on Video 5 0:24:29.280,0:24:31.760 and Video 4 disabled[br]for the moment. 0:24:31.760,0:24:35.550 0:24:35.550,0:24:38.340 Select the compound clip[br]of the smiling girl, 0:24:38.340,0:24:41.880 and double click the[br]video collage to apply it. 0:24:41.880,0:24:44.430 As you can see, the[br]background is now 0:24:44.430,0:24:48.360 viewable through the matte holes[br]that are created in the image. 0:24:48.360,0:24:52.410 From the Effects Inspector,[br]change the workflow from Create 0:24:52.410,0:24:54.470 Background to Create Tile. 0:24:54.470,0:24:57.050 0:24:57.050,0:24:58.800 Now, you can see that[br]the girl is actually 0:24:58.800,0:25:01.690 composited as a[br]picture-in-picture effect, 0:25:01.690,0:25:02.470 very similar to. 0:25:02.470,0:25:05.160 If we'd have scaled the clip[br]down, using the Transform 0:25:05.160,0:25:08.190 controls, and moved[br]it into position. 0:25:08.190,0:25:10.860 Click the Preview[br]Layout tab in order 0:25:10.860,0:25:12.550 to get the familiar layout. 0:25:12.550,0:25:17.080 We want to have three columns[br]for each of the three images, 0:25:17.080,0:25:19.200 but only one row. 0:25:19.200,0:25:24.150 Use the Rounding control[br]to create circular tiles. 0:25:24.150,0:25:27.420 Then use the Vertical Offset[br]control to position those tiles 0:25:27.420,0:25:29.700 above the mountains. 0:25:29.700,0:25:32.230 Now that we've got the[br]tiles into position, 0:25:32.230,0:25:37.140 let's customize them in terms of[br]the border and the drop shadow. 0:25:37.140,0:25:42.570 Let's go to the Tiles tab,[br]and open up the Tile Styling, 0:25:42.570,0:25:47.790 and increase the tile[br]border ever so slightly. 0:25:47.790,0:25:55.420 Change the tile color[br]to about 90% brightness. 0:25:55.420,0:26:00.750 0:26:00.750,0:26:06.420 Open the Drop Shadow controls[br]and increase the strength. 0:26:06.420,0:26:11.430 Change the drop angle so that[br]the shadows are appearing 0:26:11.430,0:26:13.860 directly beneath the tiles. 0:26:13.860,0:26:16.830 Increase the drop[br]distance and the blur 0:26:16.830,0:26:19.740 to your particular liking. 0:26:19.740,0:26:22.360 Now that we've got[br]the tiles stylized, 0:26:22.360,0:26:26.070 we just need to work[br]on the animation. 0:26:26.070,0:26:28.450 First of all,[br]position the playhead 0:26:28.450,0:26:31.500 so that the logo is[br]just about starting 0:26:31.500,0:26:33.450 to appear in the Viewer. 0:26:33.450,0:26:36.960 Then open the Tile[br]Animation controls. 0:26:36.960,0:26:41.310 We're actually going to manually[br]keyframe the fly animation. 0:26:41.310,0:26:43.920 But first of all, we need[br]to choose the direction 0:26:43.920,0:26:45.430 of that animation. 0:26:45.430,0:26:50.700 Change the Fly Animation[br]pop-up menu to fly up. 0:26:50.700,0:26:52.560 This means that the[br]tiles will actually 0:26:52.560,0:26:55.470 come from the top of the screen,[br]not that they will actually 0:26:55.470,0:26:57.600 go to the top of the screen. 0:26:57.600,0:27:01.690 At this point, the fly progress[br]is in the correct position. 0:27:01.690,0:27:05.250 So simply add a keyframe by[br]clicking the white diamond 0:27:05.250,0:27:06.790 to make it go red. 0:27:06.790,0:27:10.380 Now move the playhead back to[br]the beginning of your timeline 0:27:10.380,0:27:13.260 and adjust the Fly[br]Progress slider 0:27:13.260,0:27:17.700 so that the tiles disappear[br]off the top of the screen. 0:27:17.700,0:27:20.190 You should now be able[br]to preview the timeline 0:27:20.190,0:27:21.970 and preview the animation. 0:27:21.970,0:27:24.900 0:27:24.900,0:27:27.720 You can also adjust the[br]acceleration of that animation 0:27:27.720,0:27:29.790 very easily, as well. 0:27:29.790,0:27:33.490 In the Easing and Blur[br]of All Tiles control, 0:27:33.490,0:27:40.410 change the Animation[br]Effect Ease to out. 0:27:40.410,0:27:44.710 And then adjust the ease[br]amount to your liking, 0:27:44.710,0:27:47.020 so that when you play[br]the animation back, 0:27:47.020,0:27:52.050 the tiles will come to a gentle[br]rest rather than an abrupt stop. 0:27:52.050,0:27:54.910 Again, now that we've[br]got the animation sorted, 0:27:54.910,0:27:59.880 we can now start to customize[br]the actual tile image itself. 0:27:59.880,0:28:04.260 At the top of the Inspector,[br]uncheck the Preview Layout 0:28:04.260,0:28:05.700 option. 0:28:05.700,0:28:08.580 Then open up the[br]Resize controls, 0:28:08.580,0:28:11.430 and use the Pan[br]and Tilt controls 0:28:11.430,0:28:14.930 in order to be able to reframe[br]the girl within the circle. 0:28:14.930,0:28:20.760 0:28:20.760,0:28:21.760 That's great. 0:28:21.760,0:28:24.880 We've now got the animation[br]working for this tile. 0:28:24.880,0:28:28.200 All we now need to do is to[br]actually take that plugin 0:28:28.200,0:28:31.920 and copy it onto the other[br]two clips in the timeline. 0:28:31.920,0:28:34.930 With the smiling girl[br]clip still selected, 0:28:34.930,0:28:39.210 press Command or Control-C[br]to copy the clip. 0:28:39.210,0:28:43.800 Now enable Track 4, and[br]select the Looking Man clip. 0:28:43.800,0:28:48.150 Press Option or Alt-V[br]for paste attributes. 0:28:48.150,0:28:52.560 And choose the Plugins[br]option and apply in order 0:28:52.560,0:28:54.690 to paste the effect. 0:28:54.690,0:28:58.440 Now, all that has done is[br]actually create a duplicate copy 0:28:58.440,0:29:01.020 of the effect with all[br]of the same settings 0:29:01.020,0:29:02.530 onto this new clip. 0:29:02.530,0:29:05.700 We now need to adjust those[br]settings to take into account 0:29:05.700,0:29:07.590 the differences in this clip. 0:29:07.590,0:29:10.270 With the Looking[br]Man clip selected, 0:29:10.270,0:29:12.990 go to the Effects[br]tab in the Inspector, 0:29:12.990,0:29:18.660 and change the active tile[br]from Tile 1 to Tile 1. 0:29:18.660,0:29:22.830 Now, adjust the resize[br]content controls in order 0:29:22.830,0:29:25.970 to fit the guy's[br]face into the circle. 0:29:25.970,0:29:37.380 0:29:37.380,0:29:40.590 And now, I need to paste[br]the attributes again 0:29:40.590,0:29:41.870 for the third tile. 0:29:41.870,0:29:44.550 0:29:44.550,0:29:47.860 Enable the track for[br]the Walking Girl clip. 0:29:47.860,0:29:52.080 Select the Walking Girl clip,[br]and press Option or Alt-V 0:29:52.080,0:29:53.920 for Paste Attributes. 0:29:53.920,0:29:56.170 Because we've already[br]pasted the plug-in, 0:29:56.170,0:29:57.970 you can see it's[br]already selected. 0:29:57.970,0:30:00.840 So all we need to[br]do is click Apply 0:30:00.840,0:30:03.940 and again, in the[br]Effects Inspector, 0:30:03.940,0:30:08.010 change the active[br]tile to Tile 3. 0:30:08.010,0:30:14.220 And change the Resize Content[br]controls so that the girl fits 0:30:14.220,0:30:15.350 into the new circle. 0:30:15.350,0:30:19.500 0:30:19.500,0:30:22.260 We turn the playhead to[br]the start of the timeline 0:30:22.260,0:30:24.370 and preview your animation. 0:30:24.370,0:30:27.750 0:30:27.750,0:30:30.060 I hope you've enjoyed[br]this demonstration of some 0:30:30.060,0:30:32.730 of the visual effects
