I'm no pro RU-vidr, but I have been making videos for years and years, I have multiple channels. A little tip of my own, if you finished a video and it's uploaded onto RU-vid, I recommend uploading it to some sort of online drive account rather than deleting it. I've heard a lot of horror stories of people's RU-vid getting hacked and all of their footage getting removed from RU-vid and they no longer are able to access it. For some videos maybe this isn't so important, but especially if you're a vlog channel it could be extremely heartbreaking to lose all of your videos. That way you just have it so even if you don't re-upload it, worst case scenario you still have it for yourself
videos are really really heavy, so if you're a youtuber, your videos will fill your drive storage really soon even if you buy the max storage, so what do u suggest?
@@thiagogregory1 use the program Handbrake. It'll turn the video into a fraction of the size with practically zero perceptible loss in quality. I turned a 60gb video into a 1gb video and couldn't even see a difference on my 4k monitior.
This video has given me a whole new perspective on the amount of work just the editing part of creating content is, let alone the filming. I appreciate the passion you put into every aspect of providing us with quality content. Even though I'm not a youtuber I really enjoyed learning about your process, thank you for sharing ❤
I really want to upgrade to Final Cut now that my channel is starting to gain some momentum, so this is super helpful, I’ve been wanting to watch a video like this!
Oh my goodness Alexis, I love your process of how you edit your vlogs.. with so much attention to detail and the time/dedication you put into doing this consistently is absolutely phenomenal. Keep up the great work Alexis, this is AWESOME!! 🙂🙏💯
Holy moly thank you so much for showing us how you edit!! This was so helpful to compare iMovie to Final Cut Pro. I can't. wait to see what other styles you experiment with!!
I’m a fellow editor and I’m newer to Final Cut after switching over from windows so I’ve been watching other people’s editing workflows, and I have to say you did a great job, explaining how you put yours together! I was curious about a couple of things. What did you use to actually record the screen and how did you get the really nice circle for over laying yourself over your edit?
i applaud you and all the you tubers because i would not have a clue how to edit or video!! you do a fantastic job and your videos are all so professional and well put together. you are one of the nicest, interesting , real and genuine you tubers out there. at the end of the day , You are Alexis and amazing. xx
Thank you so much for all this information. I take so long to put a video together and you've totally inspired me to get a different perspective. Also, about working off an external harddrive. Also, I love your vibe! 🩷
Newbie here, literally exactly what I needed! Thank you! I’ve been trying to edit the same vlog for the past like 3 weekends, because I can’t seem to find time during the week. Long story short, thank you.
I've never watched anyone edit a video but I loved this! I'm going to start blogging soon and I'm so glad you shared the music and color grading resources! Will def be using them.
Hi Alexis good morning happy Wednesday morning and I hope you having amazing day today and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you
I’ve been making videos since January (almost at 1k now!! 🥳) and have been thinking about switching from iMovie to FCP. Definitely watching this tomorrow!! 🥰
Me known understanding when you say “I’ve been editing this video for 4 hours”…me I’d be like I’ve been editing this video for 3 months, you’ll see it soon. 😂 You have mad skills.
What do you think about music with vocal singing? Am I the only one who hates it? It's like the RU-vidr is making me listen to their taste in music and I'm usually not in the mood for it. I watch a lot of crafters/artists vlogs and quite a few of them use singing as their music. I usually mute it but then they quickly come back on and start talking again. It's a back and forth game of muting and unmuting and I'm actually getting really tired of it. I hope this phase goes away soon! What do you think?
Thanks for sharing this! Have you always used Final Cut to edit your videos, or did you start out on iMovie? I've been using iMovie for the last couple of years...trying to decide if I should make the switch.
I edit different from you in FCP. When I trim a footage I use the Event Viewer using "I" mark to in and "O" to mark out the footage than I add it to the timeline. I like two monitors. One for the Source and one for the Timeline to watch the footage. RU-vidrs edit in FCP, Davinci, or Adobe Premiere. But I like to edit in Avid Media Composer. Have you tried to edit in any of these software's?
I really appreciate these videos you make! You explain it very well and simply and I will be watching this again cause you have so many helpful tips! Thank you!! 🩷
recommendation: edit using headphones. then you will hear the static/hiss that made me unsubscribe. i came back hoping the audio was finally addressed but alas :/ edit: okay i got to the audio portion. so i have to say, i appreciate you taking the feedback into consideration, but you still didn't get it solved. i don't watch your vlogs so i never heard anything there. in my very uneducated opinion it's because your camera/mic is so far from your voice you have to turn that up sooo loud to hear your voice? again idk.
