When you started the project in the previous lesson, you didn’t configure any settings at all.
In fact, you even didn’t give your project a name until the end of the lesson. That project was designed to skip the sometimes dry project setup tasks and jump right into the fun stuff. Now you’ll take a step back and correctly set up a new project. To do so, let’s return to the Project manager.
If DaVinci Resolve is closed, open the application to get to the Project manager. If DaVinci Resolve is already open, choose File > Project manager, or press Shift-1.
At the bottom of the Project manager, click the New Project button.
In the Create New Project dialog that appears, enter the project name My New Project, and click Create. The new project opens in the Edit page.
To close all the extra panels that you opened in the previous lesson, choose Workspace > Reset UI Layout. DaVinci Resolve uses default values for project settings such as frame rate for playback, and output resolution. You can customize these values in the Project settings window.
Choose File > Project settings to open the Project settings window.
