DaVinci Resolve is a stand-alone CC application (not a plug-in) that retails for $1000, but most everything you'll ever need for CC is available in the Lite version... which is FREE!. Because I haven't seen much mention of it here I've included some links to get people up-to-speed.
DaVinci Resolve Lite (download site)
Go here to get a copy of the software, manual, install/config guide (you'll have a form to fill out to get the program)
DaVinci Resolve Lite (Support Center)
Getting Started
Once you've configured DaVinci to your needs, it's easy enough to adjust the app to your workflow, but for first-timers... those first few moments after install are pretty confusing (log-in, password, 5 pages of preferences, config files need to be loaded, creating master session for each project, etc). Convenienty, Class On Demand has released a FREE training guide which should help first-timers with Resolve...
Getting Started with DaVinci Resolve Lite
Bob Sliga gives his overview of Resolve; his talking-head shots are... interesting. It's a short series with a bunch of the "tutorials" being product-placement. But the 5-10 tutorials that DO focus on Resolve are helpful; and it's FREE! so...
Other Workshops, Tutorials, Lessons
this is a four-part Workshop by Patrick Inhofer; skip to 3m40s to begin (unless u speak french)
Warren Eagles has 10 or 20 short tutorials on YouTube; there are a number of YouTube overviews other than Warren's, so check around.
These one's aren't free:
fxphd fastforward: Resolve Fundamentals
If you're willing to spend some money, I'd recommend the "FXPHD: Resolve Fundamentals course" which I have bought and is great.
Resolve 8 Tutorial & Training
Patrick Inhofer also has a series on Resolve (still being completed). It costs about twice as much as the Resolve series and I haven't seen it, so can't speak to it's quality; but you can check out Patrick on the DaVinci Resolve Workshop links listed above... from what I saw there it seemed he'd also be good.
(anyway, hope this sparks someone's interest... the lack of formatting bugged me so i rebuilt it)
