For novices, it’s sufficient to apply interesting looks to home videos, but more technically minded filmmakers will find it lacking. Its three main tabs are Quick, which allows basic dragging and dropping of clips into a sequence, Guided, and Expert, which has a simpler version of Pro’s timeline and effects controls.įor example, when working with colour, you can apply preset Instagram-style filters and modify these with a few sliders, such as brightness and contrast. Premiere Elements, meanwhile, has an interface structurally similar to Pro’s but significantly stripped down. A whole team – editor, colour grader, sound editor, VFX artist, etc – can work on their elements of the project simultaneously, with a powerful database making sure they don’t overwrite each other’s work.

The colour options are particularly advanced Resolve started as a colour grading program, and it shows in the unmatched depth of the controls available.Ī feature unique to Resolve is its full multi-user collaboration. Its in-depth audio, colour, and effects workspaces are to a standard used for major Hollywood productions and all within one programme.

However, for the best possible audio, effects, and colour work, you have to send the project to other programs within Adobe’s Creative Suite, such as Audition or After Effects.ĭaVinci Resolve’s big selling point is that there’s no need for this complex process. For example, there are numerous colour effects, including the powerful Lumetri Color, which has RGB curves and shadow/midtone/highlights wheels. Premiere Pro has many options to fine-tune the various aspects of your project.
