Adding VFX and Compositing
Now that you have completed your edit, you can open the Fusion page to add 2D or 3D visual
effects and motion graphics right within DaVinci Resolve. Unlike layer based compositing
software, Fusion uses nodes, giving you the freedom to build complex effects while routing
image data in any direction. The nodes window clearly shows every tool used along the way.
Ifyou have experienced the node workflow in the color page, this will feel familiar to you.
The Fusion Page
The Fusion page features 2 viewer windows across the top with transport controls to view your
media, an inspector window to the right to access tool settings, and a nodes window at the
bottom where you build your composition. While the viewers and transport controls are always
visible, clicking on the icons on the interface toolbar at the very top of the display will let you
show or hide the nodes and inspector windows, or reveal or hide additional windows including
the effects library and editors for spline and keyframes.
Media Pool
The media pool functions the same way as it appears in the edit page. Simply drag
additional media from your bins directly to your composition.
Effects Library
The effects library is where you will find your Fusion tools and templates sorted into
categories including particle, tracking, filters and generators. Youcan either click on
the tool or drag it to the nodes area to add it to your composition. The media pool and
effects library take up the same screen area, so you can swap between the two to keep
your viewers as large as possible.
