Great stuff.....thank you!

In this scenerio (L14 projecting matte paintings) though,

it would be easier inside fusion, to create a simple 3D shape, scale it up and resize the y-axis...

if you place the projector and the camera inside the shape you can simply use a bender node to  transform the shape to

it´s final state....528130344_Screenshot2021-01-12at21_34_20.thumb.png.76ba5a65d57ca80a681a4232d9d3692e.png

The Dropbox link for this no longer has the /Footage/ folder, only /3D/ and /Resolve/. Also hoping these will be updated at some point to contain a single DRP with individual timelines for each video, as it's a huge pain to relink assets for every single DRP.

Good suggestion. I did want to demonstrate mesh importation, but there is a lot you can do with primitives.

I am excited about this tutorial. However, I found that the footage folder is missing from the project file zip. Can you help me with it?
