In this Episode of the ColorCast, the Coloristos take you though part 1 in a 2-part series on this year's announcements at NAB 2015. They cover many of the new features in Davinci Resolve 12 including the re-designed interface, 3D keyer, 3D tracker, discrete alpha output, revised timeline, VST/AU plugin support, and Resolve Color Management.
