In a previous blog I wrote about my grading app of choice, Davinci Resolve. Well the new version is out and it’s a complete reworking of the program. There are now an additional 90+ features and improvements over the previous version 8. If your looking for a quick intro and tutorial on the use of Davinci Resolve 9, I suggest you head over to http://www.cmivfx.com/. Currently they have a promotion for 50% off list price due to the beta release of the software. Get it while you can! This code will only be valid for a limited time.

Here is an overview of the lesson:
Honestly you can’t beat the price. This will help get you up and running immediately. Resolve can be daunting for the first time user and the new interface confusing for those upgrading from the traditional version 8. This is a great way to get up to speed without spending a fortune. New tutorials to follow in the future.
