Description

Setting up your showfile well in Resolume ultimately leads to a better user experience and most of the time, better performance out of your computer. Caleb Shamblin gives insights into composition structure, resolution settings, and how to use layers and groups effectively for repeatable and simple cues. Setting up Resolume well leads to a better user experience for your volunteers.

Column Cue Strategy

Used to streamline the process of moving from one cue to another within a showfile. This approach offers simplicity and repeatability, making it easier to for volunteers. It’s also easier to integrate external controls such as your lighting console or stream deck.

Layout Considerations

When setting up your show file, visibility and accessibility of layers and columns are key considerations.

Prioritize viewing multiple layers over multiple columns.
Adjust window layout to see more layers simultaneously.
Keep columns accessible by scrolling if necessary.

Groups for Composition and Routing

Groups play a crucial role in organizing media and routing video to different destinations. They help in both compositing media with blend modes and sending video to specific outputs like projectors, LED walls, and lyric banners.

Create an "all screens" group for sending media across the entire stage.
Use specific groups for routing to individual destinations such as IMAG screens or lyric banners.

Pre-programming vs. Generic Setup

Two main approaches can be used for layer composition: pre-programming specific groups and transforms or maintaining a generic setup and adjusting as needed.

Pre-programming:
- Use groups and transform presets to direct content to specific layers.
- This enables quick cue building by placing content directly where needed.
Generic Setup:
- Add clips to generic layers and adjust positioning as required.
- Offers flexibility for on-the-fly adjustments.
