Those are the minus (-) and the plus (+) keys. In Resolve, there are hotkeys for copying the color grade from the previous clip in your timeline and for copying the grade from the clip BEFORE the previous clip in your timeline. Here’s one last example of how to copy a grade from one clip to another – using hotkeys. Stills are useful if you’re going to be copying that grade to a large number of clips, almost as if you want to save that grade as a favorite so you can reapply it throughout your timeline to various clips. Note: Using your mouse to copy a grade is much easier than going through the process of creating stills.

It’s a one-way process and not linked to any other grade or still. Note: After the grade has been copied, you have the ability to modify the grade further on an individual basis. Now you’ll see that the grade from the still has been applied to the new clip in the timeline.

If you were to grade each one separately it would take a REALLY long time. Typically when color grading, you’ll have multiple shots from the same scene or shots from different scenes with similar lighting and setup.
