So we're going to create a little video here to demonstrate some of the features throughout this class. So we're just going to call this cost demo. I'm just going to create a new folder by clicking new project here and we can call it whatever we like. So now that we understand the vault style saving system of the databases, Let's go ahead and create our very first project inside of the local database. So if you work with a particular client frequently, they can have their own dedicated database for all of their projects. A YouTube database, Instagram database, Tiktok database, and even a client database. And like I previously said, go ahead and create a database for every type of content that you create. And there you go, we have created a new database. So for example purposes, I will save this in my documents, create a new folder, and I'll call this a YouTube database. Inside of here you can create a database for all of your YouTube videos and just simply select the Save location where you want this to go. So you create YouTube videos that you also create Instagram videos. So let's say you work on multiple different platforms. Now you can create a new database by going down to the bottom here and clicking new database inside of here, you can create a separate volts for this particular project files. And if it becomes a problem down the line, or create a new database and relocate some of my files. I just use the local database on my C drive because that just gets me really quick, fast performance. This is saved to your C drive on your computer, on my personal computer or I do all of my video editing on my YouTube channel. So currently we just have a single database which is the default one called local database. So videos for April, videos for May, June, July, whatever you are doing. But also it allows you to maybe sort of create monthly databases. So you can work off of like an external hard drive and then just give them the hard drive at the end once they've paid for that edit or whatever it is. And this is quite interesting because you can create multiple databases with different saving locations, which makes it pretty ideal for either working on client projects. What a database is, basically it is a vault for where all of your project files will be saved. Now to the left-hand side, we have this panel here called local database. Now because this is a fresh install, currently we have got node projects other than Untitled Project, which is just a blank template. Now this gives you an overview of all of the projects that you have created. So this here is the homepage on DaVinci Resolve that you will get a symmetry boots up the software. Now what we have are these things called databases.
Now the way that the Vinci Resolve manages your project files is slightly different to any other video editing software that I have personally used. Creating a Project: The first thing that we want to do is create a project. If all of the sounds of interest to you, then Xiaomi here for this Getting Started guide inside of the Vinci Resolve 17.Ģ.
