Fit
When not to buy this course
If your team or clients already work in Adobe, Adobe Premiere Pro is the more practical choice. The craft transfers, but matching the tools around you saves friction.
Good to know
Yes. The free version is genuinely capable and it is what this course uses. Resolve Studio adds extras, but nothing in the course needs it.
Resolve if you want a free tool with professional depth, especially in colour. Premiere Pro if the teams and clients around you use Adobe. The editing craft transfers between them.
Resolve appreciates a decent machine, and it runs on ordinary hardware once you know the settings. The course covers optimised media, proxies and render cache, which is how you edit 4K on a laptop that cannot play it smoothly. You work with your own footage, so you can start with something modest.
No. It is a full editor, and the cut and edit pages are where this course starts. Colour is the second half, and it is where Resolve really stands out.
Every OBA certificate can be verified online by an employer. It is earned by passing the final assessment. The work employers will actually ask to see is a piece you have cut and graded yourself, which is what the course is preparing you to make.
Eleven modules and 105 lessons, around 13 hours of video, with written notes on every lesson and 49 interactive questions along the way. There are eleven checkpoints of eight questions and a 20-question final assessment, and passing the final earns the certificate. Every page of Resolve is covered: Media, Cut, Edit, Fusion, Colour, Fairlight and Deliver.
The demonstrations were recorded on an earlier release. The seven pages and the way they work are the same, so everything transfers, and some panels have moved slightly. Where the video quotes a price or names a service that has since changed, the written notes say so.
No. The instructor works with his own clips and you work with yours, which is more useful anyway: you finish the course with something of your own rather than somebody else’s exercise.
Every course has a 7-day money-back guarantee, and the software costs nothing. Try both, and if it does not fit, we refund you.
