回顾:黑魔法设计达芬奇解决14

在这篇文章和视频中，我们将看看 Blackmagic Design的DaVinci Resolve，目前还处于测试阶段. This article will be the first in a series on what it’s like to work with different NLEs when you've been using the same one for a long time. In my case, I’m coming from the perspective of a longtime Premiere Pro user. 这几乎是我使用的全部. 我想看看, 把我的工作局限在一个编辑身上, 我错过了一些可以改善我的工作流程的功能.

I started the sample project you’ll see in the video and screenshots in this article by doing a very basic edit in Premiere Pro--some straight cuts, 有几个效果, 稍微分级, 还有一些音频工作. 然后我为YouTube导出了一个MP4文件. 这个想法, then was to take a project I could easily execute in every application the same way and see how easy it was to do one over the other.

Let's dive into Resolve and explore the five pages that comprise their UI.

第1页:摄取和项目组织

您可以将第一页视为预编辑或摄取阶段. 在第二屏幕上显示在 图1(下面), you can browse your files, browse your hard drive, wherever you're looking for your clips. 然后你可以把它们拉到这里，这是你的垃圾箱. 我有这些剪辑. 我有视频剪辑. I've got audio clips and some still in here that I've used for this project.

我已经把项目文件设置好了. You can see in 图1 that DaVinci gives you the metadata you would expect to see: frame rate, 大小, 音频通道数, 等等.......

在图1所示的屏幕上，我有我的bin. 但它让我在顶部预览了片段. 顶部有两个视图，您可以在它们之间进行选择, 不管是缩略图视图还是细节视图, 在哪里可以看到元数据, 但也得到一个伟大的预览剪辑从开始到结束. If you scrub your cursor over the clip it’ll show you a preview of those few frames that it's highlighting at the very top of the screen.

Down at the bottom left of the pre-edit (Page 1) screen, you’ll see some audio meters. 当我们回放时间线时，右下角将发挥作用. 在屏幕的右侧有一个工具箱, 其中包括视频和音频的过渡和效果.

第2页:主编辑屏幕

主编辑界面(下面的图2) has what you would expect: a preview monitor for your source and a timeline viewer in the middle. The timeline consists of what you would expect: a video track and an audio track, with the ability to add or delete tracks as needed depending on how many levels your project requires. 为了简单起见，我把我的每一个都保留了一个.

Transitions show up similarly to Premiere Pro in that they're overlaid on top of a clip. 但很酷的是当我选择剪辑或过渡时, 它会立即在检查器中显示出来 图3(下面). 这很好，因为, 通常在Premiere Pro中, you have to double-click to get a clip to show up in the Source Monitor here. Then you have to click over to the eEfects panel to make changes to it. 达芬奇的方法很好, even though I'm losing some screen real estate where I might want to see these images larger, I can single-click on something and immediately start adjusting its attributes. 然后我可以立即在时间轴查看器中看到结果.

Another great thing is audio is easy to fade in and out, the most basic thing we do with audio. I can grab a little thing that looks like a marker and drag it to the side to affect how far out the audio clip fades (下面的图4). It's really easy to make that change without having to apply an effect or make a keyframe or something.

The other nice thing is the keyframes can easily be dropped down here (下面的图5)，以便您可以非常轻松地进行更改.

The actual process of making edits is pretty straightforward and intuitive: I and O for in and out points. There are keyboard shortcuts that are unique to resolve for inserting and overwriting clips (下面的图6).

当我在第二屏幕上播放视频时, you'll see that there are some black lines highlighting different clips (下面的图7). Basically, this shows me, as the video plays, what is actually being used on that clip. It shows me the name of the clip and it shows the audio that's playing—in this case, 我唯一的音轨. 这是唯一一个被高亮显示且从不移动的. 在你完成编辑之后, you can either go straight to the grading page or you can skip to the audio page.
