Instant access to all 50+ lessons, project files, and resources — plus lifetime access so you can revisit anytime. Includes a completion certificate.
Get access to the private Fusion Mastery Community to ask questions, share tips, and learn alongside other serious Fusion users.
As Fusion evolves, this course evolves with it. Any new lessons or updates are included — no additional purchase required.
Fusion Fundamentals is designed for beginners who want to learn how Fusion works. Instead of spending months on YouTube trying to find all of the correct information I've put together a structured course that teaches you all of the important parts about Fusion! Plus, you get lifetime access so you can always refer back to the videos if you forget something!
If you've been using Fusion for a few years this course could be a good review and it can be used to fill in gaps you might have about resolution, masks, color management, etc. If you have any specific questions about the course content just reach out!
Nope! This course is designed with total beginners in mind! The course does assume a base level of knowledge about DaVinci Resolve and video editing in general but most of the course will be spent in the Fusion page.
Upon purchase of the course you'll receive instant access to both the course videos and the Fusion Mastery Community! They are both hosted on the same platform so you'll be able to watch the videos, keep track of your progress, and easily switch over to the community page if you have any questions!
This course is primarily designed to teach you how Fusion's components work, not how to use them to get creative results. That being said, if you don't know how to use the tools you won't be able to get the best looking results. In Fusion Fundamentals, I aim to give you the tools needed to make beautiful videos!
At the end of the course Module 8 contains a few practice projects where I cover how to make some Motion Graphics and VFX.
Yes! The Fusion Mastery Community is a great way to ask me questions. I can't promise I'll be able to answer all of them and I won't be able to answer everything, but I'll be in the community answering questions about the course, sharing extra tutorials, and hosting traingins for everyone learning Fusion!
While I'm very confident this won't be the case, if you aren't happy with the course I have a 14-day refund policy! Just send me an email and I'll get the refund processed (typically 5-7 business days).
If this is the case, please be willing to take some time to provide feedback and let me know how the course could be improved for the future! I'm always trying to make my products better!
Yes! I plan to start working on some more advanced MGFX and VFX courses for Fusion that build off of Fusion Fundamentals foundation! These would be additional courses but would also have access to the Fusion Mastery Community!
