in testing v15 i wanted to replacate a credit / roller seq i did last week in DS, need help getting the basics sorted
what i had in DS was;
- a bunch of BG plates of light shinning down through water
- a word doc with tabs for center / right / left
what i did was;
start around 10am, set project to DCi4k, software to GL mode, send outout to a UHD mon
- on v1 cut water together / time warp with optical flow untill i had 3 min of "art
got approvals... it's about 11am now
- put 3sec nulls on v2 with a text op for the single cards
-made v2 a comp container
- filled text with inverted /scaled / graded water plate,
- with the same text applied Saphire smoke to the alpha channel, sent that to a displacement map to animate the text a bit in "watery" way
- graded the text layers to a teal
- copyied and pasted the comp tree to each single card on v2
- put fades on the single card nulls
- go back and change the "approved" water plates to get darker bits where the text is full wthieish-teal opaicaty
got approvals... it's about 1pm now, break for lunch, back around 2pm
- made another null
- dropped the left/center/right roller into a prebuilt roller
- tweaked ledding / kerning / typed in a few last min changes
- made a null with the logo's arranged artifully
- tracked nulll to the roller, replaced the "insert logo's here" with the logos
got approvals... it's about 4pm now.
- rendered out to DCi4k DPX, DCi2k DPX, HD DPX and then linked each in Resolve 14.3
- hit play, no changes wanted
- done and dusted before 5pm, could have gone much faster but for the tweaking of the displacement mapp, kerning, ledding, changeing names, fixing typo's etc etc... client attended session and all...
now...
how would one go about a client attended session in v15 Resolve/fusion and acheave the same goals in about the same amount of time?
the single cards seem pretty straightforward in Fusion, but it seems i would have to make a compound clip of the water plates, and then razor each before entering fusion? nobiggie as long as the cleint does not want any changes after we have the "apporved" wrord, still no biggie really
but the roller? wft is going on here? is it hidden or does it not exist atall? i can make a preset, does ti have the ablity to extrapolate to length as DS does, or does that have to be man handled?
any thoughts, word of encourgment etc are appreacated!
