Real frames from the plugin: Shuffle 3x3 · 7 columns with flash · Window with flash
What it is
What it does
Drop it on a cut and the frame splits into a grid. In Shuffle style the next shot takes over cell by cell, in random order or in a direction. In Window style a block of cells opens around a point you choose, travels and grows until it fills the frame. Thin grid lines sit exactly on the cell edges, and an optional flash lights each cell as it switches or the whole picture. It plays in real time in free Resolve.
- Shuffle or moving Window reveal, with only the controls for your choice showing
- Any number of cells, with square cells at 9:16 and 16:9 if you want them
- 8 reveal orders: random, reading order, each direction, diagonal, from the centre
- Window in a circle or square, with its own start and end point
- Optional flash on each cell or the full picture, in any colour
- Grid lines with their own colour, width, opacity and fade
Use it for
- Cinematic travel and B-roll edits
- Before and after reveals
- Music video cuts on the beat
- Tech, UI and editorial-style reels
Tips
- About 1 second is a good length to start with.
- 3 columns is the classic big-block look. 8 to 12 suits the Window style.
- In Window style, drag Start Point onto your subject in the viewer, then End Point to where it should travel.
- Cell Fade at 0 switches cells instantly. Raise it for a softer cross-fade per cell.
Install · about a minute
Four steps
- 01
Unzip the download, then double-click the .drfx file inside. Resolve installs it for you.
- 02
Restart DaVinci Resolve.
- 03
On the Edit page, open Effects › Video Transitions › anukalp.wip.
- 04
Drag it onto the cut between two clips. Drag its edges to set how long it lasts, then select it and change everything in the Inspector.
Double-click doesn't work? Copy the .drfx into ~/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/Fusion/Templates/ on Mac, or %APPDATA%\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Support\Fusion\Templates\ on Windows, then restart Resolve.
Troubleshooting
If something's off
- It isn't in the Effects library. Restart Resolve after installing. Still missing? Use the manual install path above.
- It looks different from the demo. Check you're on Resolve 21, then compare your Inspector settings with the defaults in the guide.
- Known issues: none reported for this version yet.
