hello guys with another tutorial
in this
tutorial I will show you how to make
digital clock in DaVinci Resolve 16
so
let's get started
as you can see I'm in DaVinci Resolve 16
now
I've already imported a background
which we'll be using it later on
first
thing I will add is a fusion clip in the
media folder right click new fusion
composition
change the duration to 20 and hit create
with the fusion clip
created I will add it to the timeline
now I move to the fusion part of DaVinci
the first thing we will do here is to
some arrangements
also right click here
options and orthogonal pipes
will also
change the arrange tools to grid
now
the first thing we will design is the
background of the digital clock so we'll
drag a background here
with the
background selected hit control space
search for rectangle
will edit the rectangle first
select the rectangle and
I will change the width the height and
the corner radius
selecting the
background node and hitting number 2
let's select the rectangle node and hit
number 1
now let's go and change the
settings for the rectangle
make sure
that you have selected the rectangle
node
ok, now as you can see we just got a
nice rounded rectangle and we will add
that drop shadow
select the background
node control space drop shadow
and we will edit some settings on the drop shadow
select the drop shadow we will
change the settings for the shadow
strength, the drop angle, the drop
distance and the blur
now select the drop shadow and hit the
number two to see it up here
you notice the drop shadow is added to
the background and
now we are done there
with a background
now, we need to add a
digital clock to be able to add a
digital clock you will need to go to
this link which I will put it in the
description of the video
what you need
to do is copy this code over here
select all of it
and right click to copy or hit
copy here I will go with right-clicking
copy and move back to the DaVinci
Resolve right-click whenever you want in
this area blank nodes area and hit paste
and now the digital clock is added
to explain you real quick let me move to
the page again
the important thing the
important parts of this code which is
written in the Lua programming language
are the width and the height
since I
will be making a full HD video I'm
writing 1920 for the width and 1080 for
the height I'm using the agency FB font
which is bold and this is the part that
activates and makes this text plus
control programmable
and this is the ID
of the text plus control
this is the
part of the code that displays the
current time in the text plus control
now let me go back to the DaVinci
Resolve select the digital clock
this icon here shows us that this control is
programmable now if we go to the step
over here where you see this red dot
selected and here's the code digital
block is the idea of the text plus
now
we need to do some changes on the
digital clock I will change the color
move back to this tab select yellow or
green color
I will select yellow and I
will change the size of it
the tracking
now the next thing we need
to do is add a glow node to the digital
clock so I will select the digital clock
control space and search for glow
make sure you select the second
glow here and we need to play with the
settings over here
select output will be
glowing image and will change this other
settings
now we move down to the opacity
and change the blend
now if I select the
glow node and hit number two you will
see those this vertical lines vertical
glowy and one property that I will show
you it's H/V ratio if I move it to
the right we will get horizontal lines
but I like to go with the vertical lines
so I will move it to the left
give it minus one one last thing I will
do here is to make this vertical global
lines move randomly so I will select
this property right click on it modify
with and select shake and as the
animation place this lines will move
randomly with the shake animation and
now we are done with this part you let
me move this nodes and I will connect
the text and background select on this
edge here and connect it to the drop
shadow finally connect the merge to the
media out node and select 2 - now we have
the full digital clock here with the
background now what we need to do here
is to go to playback render cache and it
will select smart and we will render out
only  this animation we
will render the output channel or output
alpha Channel or export alpha because we
want this movie to be transparent as we
will add the background later on
the reason why I am dividing this where I am just
rendering this part is that I will 
save up on a rendering time on the
rendering processing because the
background image over here is of a high
resolution and it can cause the
application to crush these are the
settings I will select I will go to the
individual clip select quick time will
check export alpha here and add it to
the render queue start rendering
rendering is finished I'm going to go to
the edit page again I will import what
we just exported, what we just rendered
import media select the folder and this
is what we exported and first I will to
leave this fusion composition I will go
and select the background first add it
to the timeline and then I will add the
movie the transparent movie we just
rendered
we can delete the audio because
we don't need it let us change the
duration of this of the background to
match the duration of the clip we just
export it and I would like to zoom the
background here to fit on the screen and
this is what we got so far
as you can see this vertical global
lines are moving turn this to a new
compound clip what we are going to add
here is a slow zoom in effect for the
whole clip so I'm in the frame one I
will add a keyframe here and then we'll
go to the last frame select the
composition add a keyframe and increase
the zoom. And now,  if you play the
animation this is what we got well I
would also like to show you that in the
link I gave you before if you go scroll
down and click on this link over here
you will you can learn more about how to
use the os.date parameters so if you
use these parameters here you will get
different results and guys before you
leave I would suggest you to check out
one of my other domains Resolve videos
in the card above I'm also planning to
make more damage to resolve videos so
make sure you subscribe and hit the bell
button to get notified whenever I put a
new video and hopefully guys you liked
it leave your comments your questions or
anything else in the comment section
below and with you guys I see you next
time bye
