This learning module will get you comfortable and familiar with the Fusion page in DaVinci Resolve. It's recommended that you complete the Road Movie module before doing this Heads-up module, since the Road Movie module is designed to get you familiar with some of Resolve's basics.
This starts with a video of a woman standing against a wall, and by the time you're done, you'll have combined several other graphical elements together with special effects and animations to create a complete composition.
