This collaborative way of working with video has been made possible by Blackmagic’s Cloud, which enables the hosting and sharing of projects and the new workflow.
These new video tools enable multiple editors, colourists, VFX artists and audio engineers to work on a project at the same time from anywhere in the world.
Support for AI-based audio classification in StudioĭaVinci Resolve 18.5 public beta is available now for download from the Blackmagic Design website.DaVinci Resolve 18 has been announced with major new updates that focus on collaboration, DaVinci proxy workflow, new AI-based Resolve FX, improved subtitling and Fairlight Fixed to FlexBus.ĭaVinci has rapidly become a powerhouse in the video editing world, and the latest update sees a huge leap in the collaborative tools it offers production teams. Support for edit and mix groups in Fairlight. Multiple remote monitoring improvements. New Fusion multi-merge tool to composite and manage multiple layers. Support for Universal Scene Description based workflows in Fusion. New Resolve FX relight tool for adding virtual light sources. DaVinci Neural Engine powered text-based editing in Studio. DaVinci Neural Engine-based subtitles from audio in Studio. Support for Blackmagic Cloud Presentations. Here's a full list of the updates coming to Resolve 18.5: As stated above, all of these new tools and features aim to reduce the meticulous time in the app and give more flexibility to editors and creators to have more fun with the creative aspects of video editing. With the new disable option the duration of the edit will be preserved so users can create their own gaps in the timeline as they see fit. The Cut page will also include a new ripple button which will enable and disable rippled edits as the previous edits were always rippled. In particular, this auto sorting of audio clips based on classifications, and how the Fairlight page audio tracks can now be grouped for faster mix automation, means that the manual syncing and searching tasks that often come with large batches of footage can be quickly minimized and taken out of your workflows altogether. This is big news for any solo video editors or large teams looking to knock out big projects fast and with lots of different deliverables.
With these new DaVinci Neural Engine AI updates, editors can now transcribe audio within clips to search for media based on different narrative contexts, or even quickly generate subtitles for timelines with their new automatic speech-to-text feature. The biggest news from the Blackmagic booth - in terms of video editing at least - unsurprisingly has to do with the four new AI tools, along with over 150 feature upgrades and some major updates to the Cut page. While AI has been under the hood in Resolve for almost half a decade, they're getting more of a spotlight as AI takes over our creative toolsets.
