🔥🔥THANKS FOR WATCHING! Check out How to Make a Video Editing Portfolio With ZERO CLIENTS here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YDzuK2GV0Ic.html
Love the SUPER creepy trailer! And this is a great idea for practice! A lot faster than animating all the parts, sigh. And, if what a person comes up with is good, it can be part of a portfolio reel.
the video is almost just an advertisement for the artlist, I mean it's kind of a help, but most of the editor won't pay artlist just to practice, why didn't you make a video that uses free stock footage, or even film yourself to show those who are just starting out on the editing journey that you can practice without spending money, after all the editor who is already working probably already knows about artlist and how good it's, but not every beginner, you could use something for free and for music it could be from the subscription since it is best known because of this, and then say that you could use something free too, but it wouldn't have the same quality or impact
What a great idea. I've just started getting into video editing with LumaFusion, and the biggest challenge has been that I just don't have much footage to edit! It's winter where I am, and I just don't want to trudge around out in the cold and snow shooting random clips. Plus, I don't yet have the eye or the skill to shoot good useable footage that is all going to work together. I'll get better at shooting footage with practice, sure, but in the meantime I need to practice my editing. I do get annoyed at one thing with stock footage, though, and that is that they are often already slow-motion, with pans and zooms...stuff *I* wanted to practice adding in the editing process! Grr. Oh well.
This was half a year ago so I assume you found something, but Pexels and Videezy are great free resources for editing practice/stock footage in general. I'm searching right now myself and realized so many videos are people just shilling Artlist or other expensive sites.
Great idea for skill building - sounds like a community opportunity; Faux Movie Trailer Challenge! Even when you're showing something like this, I still pick up great tips and terms - didn't know about the "driving sound" as a term before 😀
Probably about 45 minutes to find all of the media (not including my daughter’s voiceover. That took about 15 minutes). Editing took about 4 hours. The first hour was spent on the rough cut, then the rest was tightening it up, mixing the audio, etc.
Hi! New to Davinci Resolve here. I do comic book videos and often pan and scan down or across specific comic book panels. In other software I'm typically able to select a 16x9 aspect ratio for a 9x16 comic page but I can't figure out how to change the size of the green and red boxes to that 16x9 aspect ratio in Resolve. Any tips?
If you’re talking about the Dynamic Zoom tool, you can just click and drag on the edges of the boxes to change the size. If you’re talking about flipping the aspect ratio of the actual boxes in dynamic zoom, I don’t think you can. But you can always just key frame the zoom and position in the inspector instead of using dynamic zoom.
Thats a fantastic idea for creating portfolio pieces or practising. Artlist is on the pricey side for someone just starting out. Does anyone have any cheaper alternatives?
Hey Jay - not sure what's happening but youTube doesn't seem to show a checkmark on your new videos. The last 4 or 5, I just happened to check your channel and saw that you had new posts. But the little dot that gets put on my list of subscribers, doesn't seem to be happening lately. Don't know why, just thought I'd let you know.
That’s weird. Not sure what that’s about. I’ll double check my settings to make sure I’m notifying subscribers next time I upload. Thanks for the heads up!
I hate the growth of the stock footage industry. It symbolises much that is wrong in today's world. One should get off one's arse & take one's own footage no matter how good or bad it is. Tell your own story & learn along the way. No disrespect intended. Thank you for your posts 👍
I agree with you to an extent. I don’t think, in general that people should rely on Stock footage as the main body of their content. But it’s very useful for editors who don’t work with cameras and need a shot to complete a project, especially if they’re on a tight schedule, or they don’t have resources to get the shot they need. Even Hollywood films use stock footage from time to time.
That makes no sense. Not everyone training to be an editor is also working on becoming a videographer. Just to practice editing, someone would have to invest in equipment, get people together to shoot something if you want to edit anything other than nature and buildings, etc?
