It was automatically replaced with the Compound Clip and as you can see there is no Speed Change applied to it. The second clip in the timeline was used to create a Compound Clip. If you zoom the Compounded Clip you will loose image quality. So if you have a larger still image that you want to zoom into then animate the zoom (as we did above) before you make a Compound Clip of it. Right click on it and select “New Compound Clip” and give it a name.Īs you can see the Compound clip has the same resolution as the timeline. You can also use a Compound Clip in the case you want to animate a still image.Īdd the still to the timeline and adjust the duration. If you want to animate the color of a still then you need to use a Compound Clip.Ī Compound Clip can contain one or several clips and group them together so Resolve sees them as one clip. This works fine as long as you don’t want to animate the color as well. Now the still is animated, also when you play it in the COLOR timeline. Then move forward in time and change the size and position, Resolve will automatically set the new keyframes. Select the clip in the timeline you want to animate and click the Tools button (next to the red arrow).Ĭlick the diamond to the right of “Transform” so it turns orange and set the size and position of your still.

If you only want to animate size and position then you can use the Transform settings in the EDIT timeline. Keyframes in the COLOR timeline are set by source timecode and since a still frame only has one timecode there is no way to animate it. You set a keyframe at the start and then move to forward to set another keyframe, but no luck. You add the map to the timeline and you try to animate it using “Input Sizing”. Say you have a still of a map and you want to do a zoom in on a particular part of it. When working with stills in DaVinci Resolve some things are not as working with video-clips.
