My experience with NLEsĪlthough I agree that Resolve is not easy to grasp, I also believe that “learning curves” are more or less steep depending on where you come from, and in my case, having tried to use Resolve’s, I must say that not even the fact that it is FREE has helped much.

On the other hand, despite the fact that Resolve is, as Scott writes, on a “march toward post-production dominance”, and has a FREE version, its interface has the “steepest learning curve followed by Avid and then Premiere and FCPX” according to a comment made by Lou Hemsey. Adobe’s Rush, which Scott Simmons compares to the old Adobe Premiere Clip, “but better” is not what most have in mind. Reading both articles and comments I felt there was a common tone: the suggestion that a NLE with an interface easy enough for most people to quickly edit would be welcome addition to the actual line up of video editors. From Resolve’s “march toward post-production dominance” to Adobe’s Premiere Rush, developed with YouTube creators in mind, the articles and the comments that they originated are interesting material to read, for what they reveal about the actual state of the industry. The titles for these articles, despite the fact that they all are about NLEs, do not suggest there is a deep connection between them, but there is: they all go back to the continued quest after the “best” editor, the easier to learn, how the word “FREE” has changed perspectives. Searching for an NLE with an easy interface Finally, November 14 he published “ DaVinci Resolve 15.2 update continues Blackmagic’s march toward post-production dominance”. October 11 Scott wrote “ Which non-linear editing application should a graduating high school senior be certified for?”, followed, on October 17, by “ Adobe releases Premiere Rush, the easy, cross-platform video editor that may not be made for you”. All these questions, some suggestions and many opinions have appeared here at ProVideo Coalition in recent months, in a series of articles written by PVC’s Editor Scott Simmons.īecause I believe you’ll want to read the whole series, let me point you to the different articles. The questions above may all have different answers, depending not only who you ask, but in which area of the industry they work, and, strangely as it may sound, also depending on the region they live in, and sometimes the country or part of the world where they live.
