Your love to your children tells you not to explore near the black hole, which will make you miss all the precious years in their life in just a blink your love to your lover tells you to risk everything on a venture of uncertainty, just hope to meet them again, dead or alive, by traveling through the vast universe your fear of lonely dying on an alien planet tells you to fake promising stats to cheat for rescue, despite it wastes the survival chance of the entire humanity your determination tells you to dock a broken, out-of-control space station rapidly spinning at 68 RPM, because you see only necessity rather than impossibility when your mind is dominated by the hope of returning to your home planet the strong love and trust between parent and child forms a subtle but powerful connection between two worlds across time. The spaceship is about advanced science, formidable space, but still, it's about human nature - it carries human nature into the deepest space - and that is what can still give you all kinds of feelings when facing completely unfamiliar objects and situations. The Endurance is one of the movie's cores, around which there are many breathtaking scenes, like the famous "docking scene". It's designed to mimic the shape of a clock, which is a metaphor for their spatiotemporal odyssey through the wormhole and along Gargantua, which is a massive black hole that makes a single hour spent by the Endurance's crews near it equal to 7 years on Earth. To me, it's a spaceship full of poetic sentiment. There are many elements that could move me, including the Endurance. I went to the theater twice, every time leaving with my face covered with tears. I was obsessed with the movie when it was released in 2014. ![]()

While AMD does make graphics cards (the AMD Radeon series), you’ll never see them on the top of the benchmarks. The recommended graphics cards for DaVinci Resolve all come from Nvidia. The Studio version of Resolve can use more than one graphics card at a time which is amazing for high-quality footage and effects. DaVinci Resolve is incredibly reliant on the GPU, especially if you have the Studio version of Resolve. If you’re going to spend a lot of money on one thing for DaVinci Resolve, spend it on a graphics card. These are wonderful for professional users who want the best performance possible. These are great for those working with a bit higher-end codecs, effects, layers, and larger resolution sizes.Īt the high end are the Intel core i9 and Ryzen 9 chips (or the Threadripper chips from AMD). Somewhere in the middle are the Intel core i7 and the Ryzen 7 chips. If you’re editing low-quality codecs with minimal to no effects, these two chips are the way to go. On the lower end, you have the Ryzen 3600 and Intel core i5 chipset that will do the bare minimum of what you’ll need for editing. Truthfully though, you can’t go wrong between either brand, though, DaVinci seems to get slightly better performance out of the Ryzen chips. Intel vs Ryzen chips have been something of a heated debate for a while now. On the high end is the M1 Ultra chip which will fly through any type of encoding.įor Windows, things become a little bit trickier. The cheapest option you can get is the M1 CPU which DaVinci Resolve runs great on. The newer MacBooks, Mac mini, and Mac Studio all have these chips in them. Newer Macs use Apple’s proprietary chipset. Mac users don’t have much of a say in this decision (which can be either a good or bad thing depending on who you ask). There are many CPU options on the market and it can sometimes be hard to decide which one to go with. ![]() So what’s the best hardware to choose? CPU The ProRes codec, for example, has better encoding and playback on Apple hardware. Someone doing visual effects is going to need something completely different than someone doing small videos for social media or audio post-production.Įach video format runs better on a different piece of hardware as well. Different creators may require different things as well. It can be overwhelming to figure out what to choose at times. There are so many options on the market when it comes to graphics cards, CPUs, Ram, and motherboards. Hardware requirements for running DaVinci Resolve Discrete GPU with at least 2GB of VRAM that supports OpenCL 1.2 or CUDA 11 as well as the latest driver Blackmagic Design Desktop Video 10.4.1 or later.Integrated or discrete GPU with at least 2GB of VRAM and supports OpenCL 1.2 or CUDA 11 and the Latest driver Blackmagic Design Desktop Video 10.4.1 or later.16 GB of system memory (32 GB for intense graphics work).Integrated GPU or discrete GPU with at least 2GB of VRAM and supports Metal or OpenCL 1.2įor those running Windows devices you should have:.M1 Apple Silicon CPU (or intel core i7 on older macs).8 GB of system memory (16 GB for intense graphics work). ![]() For those using macOS devices, you should have: The system requirements for DaVinci Resolve 18 and DaVinci Resolve 17 vary from operating system to operating system though. To run DaVinci Resolve, you don’t need anything incredibly powerful, but it’s still important to check and see. For post-production work, especially for ones that require an intense workflow, it’s important your machine is above the minimum system requirements. DaVinci Resolve minimum requirementsĭaVinci Resolve is able to run on both low-end and high-end devices and is one of the only NLEs that runs on Linux as well. Simon Says is very light on CPU requirements and all the minimum specs listed below would support the integration with Resolve. Note: You can transcribe with Simon Says natively within Resolve (and in 100 languages). The question is: which hardware is best for you and which hardware is optimal for DaVinci Resolve? There are a plethora of CPU and GPU options out there and a few different operating systems as well. As a video editor, it can sometimes be a challenge to decide on what hardware to choose. While DaVinci Resolve is an incredibly powerful tool, the software can only be as good as the hardware it’s running on. DaVinci Resolve is one of the best video editing programs in the business and a staple for filmmakers, businesses, and other types of content creators. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() If you have a GoPro subscription ($49.99 (AU$ 69.99)/year), you can enable another helpful feature in the Hero11 Black. An auto-highlight feature is also being added, but was not available while I was testing the camera. The one thing I wish it could do was lock on a subject, as with the Insta360 X3, but it’s a bit trickier to do if you don’t have a 360 lens. When it comes to manual edits, you can speed up or slow down specific segments, add filters, and change exposure, contrast, and more. The other key benefit to this larger sensor is that it also gives you a lot more flexibility when editing video, and outputting it to the aspect ratio you want. The only other camera with a similar ability is a 360 camera, such as the Insta360 X3. And, thanks to the more square-shaped sensor, you can do so knowing that nothing will get cut off. In addition, the Hero11 also has 360-degree Horizon Lock - you can literally rotate the camera in a full circle, and have the image remain steady. When coupled with Hypersmooth 5.0, you get incredibly great image stabilization. The biggest change to the GoPro Hero11 is its 1/1.9-inch sensor, which is not only larger than the previous model, but has a 8:7 aspect ratio, which really allows for some neat things. ![]() ![]() ![]() Rae was cast in Eli Roth's Thanksgiving on February 23, 2023, and on May 12, 2023, Rae was also cast alongside Ryan Reynolds for a live-action hybrid movie titled Animal Friends.

Just as a glacial pace can bore viewers, a rushed story can overwhelm them. “It forces the writer to cut out all the extraneous stuff and focus only on the language that supports the central focus of the story.” “Economy of words plays an essential role in making digital stories short and sweet and emotionally compelling,” said Spagat. Keeping your script brief (between 250 and 350 words) can help you decide what content to include.

Instrumental music is often the best choice, as lyrics can interfere with your narration or contradict your message, notes the Digital Storytelling Cookbook. Choose carefully, however: the wrong music can actually undermine your story. Music can be a great way to establish mood and complement your overall message. Weinshenker suggests adopting an informal tone when relating your story, as if you were talking with someone over a cup of coffee. A good narrator can help give your digital story direction and personality and can make it more powerful than using text only. She noted that it can be helpful to create a story about an experience that has already been resolved, as perspective plays an important role in being able to clearly examine your past emotions. “ is what everybody can relate to and what makes stories so universal,” said Spagat.

A dramatic question is usually not an actual question that the narrator poses rather, it is an intriguing statement that causes the viewers to ask themselves a question. A dramatic question is posed by the narrator at the beginning of the story to create tension and draw in the audience.
