Color Grade ALL Your Video Clips at Once! - DaVinci Resolve

In a previous video, I demonstrated how to change the color of a single clip in DaVinci Resolve and then copy and paste that color change to other clips. However, if you have multiple clips all cut from the same original source file and you want to quickly change the color of all these clips at once before you start color grading, there's a faster method.

Steps to Change Color of Multiple Clips

1. Right-Click on the Clip: Navigate to the color page, right-click on the clip you want to adjust.
2. Switch from Local to Remote Grades: Change from using local grades to remote grades by selecting the appropriate option in the context menu.
3. Adjust the Color Once: Now, any color adjustments you make to the original clip will automatically apply to every other clip that came from the same source file.

Using this method can save you a lot of time and ensure consistency across all clips sourced from the same file.
