Learn Fusion From Scratch: Masks & Transparent Text

Learn Fusion From Scratch continues with Part 3: Masks & Transparent Text in DaVinci Resolve. In this beginner-friendly tutorial, we’ll take the next step in learning Fusion by introducing masks and using them to create a simple effect where video shows through text. Rather than jumping into complicated Fusion effects, we’ll build the effect step by step so you can understand how masks work, how they interact with other Fusion nodes, and how they can control where an effect appears. In this video, you'll learn: What masks do in DaVinci Resolve Fusion How to add and use a mask in Fusion How masks control which parts of an image are visible How to use text as part of a masking workflow How to make video appear through text How to connect masks to Fusion nodes How the mask changes the final composite How this technique can be used as a foundation for more advanced Fusion effects This is Part 3 of the Learn Fusion From Scratch series, following our introduction to Fusion and our previous tutorial covering multiple Merge nodes and Text+. The aim of this series is to learn Fusion gradually, starting with the fundamental concepts and building towards more advanced compositions and effects. If you're completely new to Fusion, follow along with the earlier videos before moving on to the more advanced techniques.
