This is the frame rate or speed your timelapse will playback at. You need to set the frame rate to match the intended frame rate you shot your timelapse in (e.g., 240 photos at 24 fps will play for 10 seconds).

HD (1920 x 1080) and UHD (3840 x 2160) are both popular resolutions, and if you want to do vertical video (e.g., an Instagram story), you can use a custom setting such as 1080 x 1920 to give you vertical HD video. I suggest starting in the Media tab since this is where you will import your sequence of images. You can access the Project Settings by clicking the Settings cog at the bottom right in any tab.

When processing your images, don’t resize or crop them, you can use the higher resolution in DaVinci Resolve to reframe and animate your timelapse, and it also helps if you need stabilization due to camera shake. It is very important to make sure the images are correctly ordered and in a number sequence (e.g., Photo-1, Photo-2, Photo-3 etc.) otherwise, DaVinci Resolve will not recognize the photos as a timelapse. If you take your stock of photos as RAW files, you will need to process the sequence in a software like Adobe Lightroom first and then export it as a jpeg or png image sequence.

If you shot your images as jpegs (.jpg) and your camera names the files as a numbered sequence, you don’t need to do anything, just save the files to a single folder on your hard disk and skip to Part 1.
