Pro Film Chapter Kit for DaVinci Resolve

Pro Film Chapter Kit for DaVinci Resolve

FreeVisuals Pro chapter kit for DaVinci Resolve. Six Fusion titles for documentary, travel and short film edits: chapter card, act break, quote, location and date, scene slug, and credit card. Warm off-white type. Thin brass rule. No plugin.

This is not the red creator-title pack. That one is for hooks and subscribe tags. This one is for section cards. You download the ZIP from files.freevisuals.net after a Pro Single Pass, Monthly or Yearly plan.

Quick Answer

Six .setting titles. Copy them into the Resolve Titles folder. Restart. Drag from Effects Library > Titles. Edit the words in the Inspector. Use the chapter card at the start of a section. Use the location bug on travel. Use the credit card at the end, one clip per role.

What you get

• FV Chapter Card. Chapter number and title. Brass rule between them. Open of a section.
• FV Act Break. Act label and subtitle, rules left and right. Midpoint card.
• FV Quote Card. One sentence and a short credit. Not a paragraph.
• FV Location Date. Place and date, top left, with a short vertical rule.
• FV Scene Slug. Screenplay line, lower left. Example: EXT. HARBOUR NIGHT.
• FV Credit Card. Role over name. Duplicate the clip for each credit.

Each file is a Fusion title. Change the words in the Edit page Inspector. Open Fusion only if you want to rebuild the layout.

How to install

1. Download the ZIP after checkout or from your Pro library.
2. Unzip. You get a Titles folder and readme.txt.
3. Quit DaVinci Resolve.
4. Copy the six .setting files into the Titles folder.

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/Fusion/Templates/Edit/Titles/

Windows: %APPDATA%\Blackmagic Design\DaVinci Resolve\Support\Fusion\Templates\Edit\Titles\

5. Open Resolve.
6. Effects Library, Toolbox, Titles.
7. Find the six FV titles.
8. Drag onto a track above the picture. Edit text in the Inspector.

If the names do not appear, the files are in the wrong folder or Resolve was still open. Titles live under Fusion/Templates/Edit/Titles, not under Macros.

How to use each title

Chapter Card

Hold a frame or a black slug for three to five seconds. Type the number in Chapter Number. Keep the title under four words. If it wraps, drop Title Size before you shrink the number.

Act Break

Use once, at the midpoint. Centre it. Do not stack it on the chapter card. One section card per cut point.

Quote Card

One sentence. Credit is a source, a name, or FIELD NOTE. A quote that runs three lines stops reading as a title.

Location Date

Place on the top line. Date under it. On 9:16, nudge both down so they clear the platform UI. Do not put a full address in Place.

Scene Slug

Screenplay style. INT or EXT, place, time. Lower left. Leave it on for two seconds, then cut it.

Credit Card

Duplicate the title clip for each role. Role on top, name under the rule. DIRECTED BY, then YOUR NAME. Next clip: EDITED BY. Do not paste a full credit roll into one field.

Resolve version and plugins

Fusion Edit Titles. Resolve 18 and 19. Free Resolve is enough. No OFX. No paid Fusion plugin.

Timeline size follows the project. A 1920x1080 timeline and a 1080x1920 timeline both work. Check position after you switch aspect.

Default font is Open Sans. If it is missing, pick any serif or clean sans in Font. Do not leave a missing-font box on screen.

What this pack is not

It is not a 3D logo reveal. It is not a speed-ramp transition. It is not the red subscribe pack. If you need a MotionVFX camera move or an Envato opener, use the premium list on DaVinci Resolve templates. Those open on Envato, Artlist, Motion Array, Motion Elements or MotionVFX. Partner licence, not this ZIP.

Need a hook and a subscribe tag as well: use Pro Clean Creator Titles for DaVinci Resolve. Different look. Do not mix the brass rule and the red bar in the same five seconds.

Pairing on FreeVisuals

Grade the cut with a Pro LUT from Premium LUTs. Travel and doc work sits well on a warm or film-grit grade, not a neon pack.

Music under the chapter card: Artlist or Epidemic Sound. Bigger Resolve openers after this pack: Envato, Motion Array or MotionVFX.

Do not drag these .setting files into Premiere or CapCut. They are Fusion titles.

Free vs this pack

The free row on DaVinci Resolve templates has titles you can try without Pro. This pack is owned. One ZIP. Same six cards every film so the series looks like one show.

Pro Monthly and Yearly unlock this pack plus other Pro rows. Single Pass unlocks this ZIP only. Affiliate packs on the same page do not unlock with Pro.

A weekly doc pipeline

Install the six files once. Do not recopy them from the ZIP every upload. Make a Resolve project preset with the location bug on track 3 and a chapter card at the first marker. Duplicate that project for the next film. Change only the words.

Batch one long cut, pull three Shorts, and keep the same chapter card. Change the title. Do not swap to a neon lower third mid-series.

Common mistakes

• Copying the ZIP into Titles without unzipping.
• Putting the files in Fusion/Macros.
• Leaving Resolve open during the copy.
• Pasting a paragraph into Quote.
• Stacking Chapter Card and Act Break on the same three seconds.
• Leaving Open Sans selected when the font is not installed.

Licence

FreeVisuals Pro. Personal and commercial use, including monetised YouTube, client work and paid social. No attribution. Do not resell the .setting files. Do not upload them to another stock site. Terms: Terms of Service.

FAQ

Does this work in the free version of Resolve?

Yes. Fusion titles do not need Studio.

Do I need a plugin?

No.

Can I use this on 9:16?

Yes. Switch the timeline to 1080x1920 and check position. The location bug may sit under Shorts UI if you leave the default.

Why do I not see the titles in Effects?

Wrong folder or Resolve was not restarted. Confirm the path in the readme.

Can I change the brass rule?

The rule is baked into the Fusion graph. Open the title in Fusion if you need a different colour. The Inspector on the Edit page changes the words and type size.

Will this open in Premiere?

No. Fusion .setting only.

Is this the same as Pro Clean Creator Titles?

No. That pack is hook, lower third, end card and subscribe tag. This pack is chapter, act, quote, location, scene slug and credit.

Wrap

Pick the chapter card and the location bug and keep them for the series. Change only the words. A film that swaps title packs every chapter looks unfinished.

Download once. Store the ZIP on your drive. When FreeVisuals revises the pack, replace the six files and keep any custom Fusion versions in a side folder.
