“Writer’s Block“ Behind the scenes - DaVinci Resolve Fusion

In this video we take a look at what went into making the short “Writer’s Block“. This video is a little different from most of our videos as it is more of a lecture. We will go through the entire process from the storyboard to the final video. We used DaVinci Resolve and Fusion for editing and the compositing. And used Houdini, 3D Coat, PF Track and Metashape to help with the 3D assets.
