Nice, clear presentation. Thanks! One tip that I've discovered in other editors (still learning DaVinci) is if you do the first keyframe and then the last frame before doing the rest you sometimes need fewer keyframes. 😃

Isn't it easier to add the softness before adding any keyframes, just to skip adding softness to each individual keyframe in case you have many?

Resolve still overall better than Premiere and way more reliable, but I hate that Resolve overcomplicates things like this that Premiere can do in two clicks. (Opacity>Mask in Effect Controls) Also.... Can't apply softness to all keyframes? WHoops lol. Just wasted a bunch of time setting 50 keyframes and now have to go back and copy softness settings. WHY

Don't wait till the very end to add the softness like he explained. "go back and add softness to each keyframe.." I had like 30 keyframes and had to restart from the beginning. Add the softness in the beginning, and check how it looks before continuing to the next keyframe. Also I'm not sure if cutting a clip in half, and setting the second half 2x as fast as the first half is considered a "speed ramp." A speed ramp is a dynamic increase in speed. To do this you would have to right click and use the "retime curve" feature.

One little note from an old editor, always track or modify your mask in reverse. Scale your mask at the end of your transition and then put your keyframes going back to the start so you don't have to guess where to put your first mask keyframes.

Hi, Thank you for the notes!
The corrector isn’t working. It’s not adding key frames from frame to frame. Any idea?
Should I do this before or after I begin to color grade?

Hi, before is probably better :)
I have an important question. when I'm masking: HOW CAN I ZOOM IN TO MAKE THE MASK MORE ACCURATE? I'm on a MacBook and I don't even know if its possible at all, but it would be so strange if it isn't. so to clarify what I want. I want to zoom in into the clip to make the mask more accurate with small details. would be great if someone can help me. Thanks a Lot, much love from Germany
I can't find the keyframe icon. Where is this?
keyframes just dont work everytime I go to change the mask it deselects the keyframe and changes the mask, its like the mask isn't connected to the keyframe
FYI Everybody the video starts at 1:39

2:19 he is talking about the power windows tab. Any of the tools in this tab can be used to mask objects. He chooses the pen tool which is normally best for intricate masks that will involve more complex shapes. The icon to the right that he clicks inverts the mask. If he did not click that the clip underneath would show up everywhere the mask wasn’t. This way the clip underneath shows up only where he applied the mask.
this is a nice tutorial but it is actually recommending to it the effect way harder than it should be. you don't have to add softness to every keyframe if you just do it to the whole clip, that's how I do it and it works the same way.
