John Devenish and Ian Simpson are most impressed with this programme – here are their comments ..
Blackmagic Design’s Davinci Resolve 15 offers a variety of tools for professional video editing and colour grading along with a built-in visual effects toolset and robust audio editor. It’s got a remarkable price of free, with the option to upgrade to Design Davinci 15 Studio for $300 to unlock the full toolset of stuff you might never need. Blackmagic Design is known for disrupting the marketplace, and Design Davinci 15 does just that, and whatsmore it can be used to produce A/Vs. It packs in lots of strong real-world tools, and they’re giving it away for free. Only a hardware company that wants to sell you hardware could do that. But the coolest thing is that you don’t need the companion hardware to use Design DaVinci 15 at a professional level.
Think about if you could have all of the video related programs from Adobe in a single program — Premiers Pro, After Effects and Audition, without the need to round-trip from program to program. That’s basically what Blackmagic Design is doing here with Design Davinci . Resolve offers tools for editing and color along with Fusion for visual effects and motion graphics and Fairlight for your audio needs. But unlike Adobe, it’s free.
