A Total Beginner’s Guide to Video Editing Using DaVinci Resolve

Video has become increasingly important to digital marketing.

When choosing software, DaVinci Resolve stands out as a free and intuitive option.

Within the program, the Media Pool is where you store all your editable media.

To begin editing media, start a New Timeline. Think of the timeline as a cutting board where you assemble your edit. To splice clips, use the Blade Tool.

Audio and text can be added as well (use the Inspector tool to perform edits). When you’re done, use the Delivery page to render all your elements into one media file.

Key Takeaways:

  • Video is the best way to market your business or brand but producing quality video is not a trivial task.
  • The trick is to find software that will allow you to create and edit quality video without having to become an expert.
  • Davinci Resolve is the best choice. The tutorial in this article will show you the basics of editing with Davinci.

“If you’re just starting out with video editing, you don’t want to spend money on something that you might not use often, or that you might not like, or that is simply too complex for the task at hand. DaVinci Resolve is the best option in this case because it’s free and intuitive.”
