📝 Description

This is not a general Resolve course. It skips the documentary and feature-film stuff you will never use at a wedding and sticks to what actually pays: fast cuts, clean audio sync, and pretty color.

You start on the Edit Page with shortcuts, multicam editing, stabilization, black bars, and vertical cuts for social. The idea is simple — less mouse, more keyboard, faster delivery. You will build a repeatable timeline workflow for prep, ceremony, speeches, and party.

Then you go heavy on color. You learn scopes, white balance, primaries, LOG wheels, HDR tools, curves, and the Color Warper to shape skin tones without breaking the image. After that comes the fine-art layer: glow, halation, lens reflections, grain, and soft highlight roll-off. Plus practical fixes like exposure correction with tracking, Power Windows, Magic Mask, face refinement, and object removal.

You also get the shooting side. There is a full class on how to shoot LOG footage at weddings in harsh sun, dark churches, and mixed reception light, so your files actually grade well later. Add in LUT workflow, powergrades, and Micro Panel tips, and you have a complete wedding post pipeline from card to delivery.

🧑‍🎓 Who this course is for

• Wedding filmmakers who want to switch to DaVinci Resolve for editing and color
