Top Marks to Grant and his devoted BMD team for integrating Fusion into Resolve !
Although I understand the desire to have Fusion as an external app for dedicated pros, I see more and more post budgets pushing for faster, lower costs and more editors doing grading and VFX works.
The current Fusion Tab makes it appear very difficult to decide an order for video effects ie: source ->NR ->Motion Stabilization->Speed Reduction->Grade->add specific coloured text->add Film Grain.
I'd love to see the Fusion VFX facility dropped into a node in the Color node tree, so we can do VFX before or after OFX or grading Nodes. I guess the Color Tab would than become a composite VFX tab able to do everything except edit alignment. ie A Fusion Node Tree inside a Color node the existing Color Node Tree. Could easily be recursive and visually clearer to describe what we are trying to achieve ?
I trust this workflow could also solve the VFX duplication/confusion of OFX/ResolveFX/FusionFX for the same effects type ie: "Slow-Motion with Optical Flow" that doesn't work so well in OFX but I guess should work better in Fusion (atleast as good as FCP or Premiere).
My two bobs,
