    Casey, I have to admit something. Everytime I'm looking to learn something in Resolve and searching KZread for tutorials, I come across your videos and every time, you completely change my game. The truth is that I stayed away from VFX the most part of my filmmaking journey because the complexity of operations and the tools always confused me.. and even though I'm a very technical guy in general, the pipeline always instantly dragged me off the creative mood.. so I always used Fusion for VERY basic stuff like titles (usually with presets.. not really understanding much of what was going on in there). Recently, the desire of learning VFX basics came back to me to bring my filmmaking game to the next level.. so I decided to give it another shot. As always, I was searching for tutorials on KZread and found THIS video. 26 minutes later, I now truly understand how it works.. and goshh that feels good! You are an amazing teacher. I don't know how much editing you do in your videos, but it feels so easy and logical.. I love it! Whatever you do man, it just works! So I just want to say THANK YOU MAN!

    Casey, you are getting really good at explaining Resolve. This is a very good video. You are so much better at including every relevant component and not skipping the little things that can be so important. And even you have done this subject a number of times before, you are now being much more precise to include everything that is important and not assuming prior knowledge. For beginners and intermediates, it is often some seemingly minor step that they don’t get. Watching video educators who skip over these little points is unbelievably frustrating. A good example in this video is how you clearly explain the two viewer dots. It’s not much but if that’s not explained, then viewers would be so messed. Your knowledge and passion are unquestionable. Your education skills are now matching your knowledge. Well done you.

    Super nice but also spot on. The key is NOT skipping over steps or moving at the speed of light. Conceptualizing the work is also great: these are sources nodes, these are effect nodes. As the saying goes, there's nothing more practical than good theory -- precisely because it doesn't just describe the how but -- infinitely more important -- also the why. @@CaseyFaris

I finally wanna dive deep into fusion, ive started with video editing around 4 years ago, but i never really take a deep step into fusion because it just felt overwhelming. I watched some tutorials here and there and know a couple of things, which are very situational, but i just wanna be able to do what i have in mind without looking everything up and following long tutorials for everything. So i defenitly will check out the fusion courses you offer, also thanks for making the survival guide for free, not everyone is earning hundreds of buckeroos to get a paid course. and im happy i could afford the stuidio version this year.

    Video Idea: @23:05 you begin to explain a "new flow chart" - I LOVE THIS. Especially given the tutorial up to this point. I find myself really wanting to follow along with your explanation...but (there it is! lol)...I'm having to rewind too much because it's a little too hard to follow. I pause the video, looking for the node you're talking about (sometimes hard to find) and I like to look at the inspector and pair the three things (the node, the inspector, and what you're saying). It's like putting it all together. So here's the video idea: you could once a week take some already baked in "flow chart" - either your own, or, pick one of the Templates/Edit/Titles and open it in fusion and walk through the flow chart telling us how it all makes sense. Who do I think that would appeal to? Those of us who are jusssst barely beyond newbie and nowhere near intermediate yet. I think there's a segment here you could serve really well. It's a thought. An Idea. A once a week thing that might feel too simple but I think someone like me could watch a dozen of those and gain a lot from it. And I'm not aware of anyone else doing it. (Another thought: place flowchart elements into your "underlay categories." Although, really, there's a version of this idea where you don't have to do that much augmenting work; just turn nodes on and off or muck with them in an insightful way.)
