DaVinci Resolve 22/03/2021 4 min read

If you’re looking to make sure that the first impression is ultimately a good one with your titles, then look no further. Today we will be guiding you through our top 20 easy-to-use Davinci Resolve Titles that will be your go-to list for 2021. Also, if you are curious about the new updates in DaVinci Resolve 17 built-in titles, we have noted some of our favorite ones!

Part 1: What’s New About Titles in DaVinci Resolve 17

All the available titles in Davinci Resolve 17 are under the Effects Library tab, which you can find in the top left of your screen. There are 6 basic title options available under the Effects Library that are already built into Davinci 17. All you need to do to start using them is drag and drop them into your timeline!

Titles

1. Left Lower Third

This is a classic lower third title suitable for any moving image, documentary, or corporate project. You can easily customize the text in the Inspector, with access to sizing, color, tracking, position, etc.

2. Middle Lower Third

Another staple title but centered this time. If you go into Inspector > Settings and select the Dynamic Zoom to ON, you can customize this middle lower third to create unique rolling credits… cue Star Wars Episode X.

3. Right Lower Third

The same as your Left Lower Third but on the right. If you find your title is positioned too close to the edge, head to the Position X & Y tabs in the Inspector to adjust them to your preference.

4. Text & Text+

This one is a very basic centered Text title. The Text+ option is exactly the same as the Text node, except you can take it into Fusion and you’ll find your template there.

5. Scroll (Credits)

This one is set at a standard speed, but if you drag the title in the timeline to extend the length, it will also slow down the speed of the animation. If you go into the Inspector and change the titles, you have immediately got yourself some rolling credits!

Fusion Titles

There are also a whole lot of options under Fusion Titles – previously with Davinci Resolve 16, these great options wouldn’t have been available and you would have had to build them independently in Fusion. Here are some of our favorites from the Fusion Titles.

1. Background Reveal

To use this title, all you need to do is drag and drop an image or video file and the title template into the timeline. The image will fade out to reveal the title with the image in its silhouette. You can use the Inspector to adjust the layers to your preference if you want to show a specific aspect of the image or scale the text up or down, etc.

2. Call Out

This is a really smooth addition to the Davinci Resolve update, which will look fantastic on any moving image project. The call-out animation is very malleable and easy to use; you can adjust the size, text, position, and color in the Inspector tab. 

3. Digital Glitch

This is an excellent template for any thriller or Sci-fi intro sequence! There’s also a lower left third option available to switch things up.

4. Dark Box

Made for moving image presentations and YouTube vlogging intros, this awesome animated title will make any project look slick and clean.

5. Three Line Drop

This lively title is perfect for a morning or late-night talk show intro. You can adjust the subtitles in the inspector to change their color, size, tracking, etc., and you can make sure they line up with the heading using the X & Y tabs.
