Bring your animations to life with realistic reflections, all inside DaVinci Resolve, and fully compatible with the FREE version.
In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to create clean table reflections AND dynamic water-surface reflections using only built-in tools.
No plugins needed!
First, we build a simple reflection using a Merge, DVE, and Gaussian Blur.
Then, once you understand the logic, we take it to the next level:
Creating a moving water reflection using Fast Noise, Displace, and a custom blur workflow.
Perfect for motion graphics, titles, cinematic scenes, skyline shots, or YouTube intros.
