Hello I am INDIA''s First Transman DJ and i wanna make a documentary about it I have come here to learn the editing so I can make one for myself and let the world know about my story. are you interested in this story? il be waiting for reply adeetation@gmail.com
After editing 3-4 big production documentaries I have only 2 tips - Organize a folder structure before you even create a project and copy it into the project - you will definitely add more footage while working, either add it to it's appropriate folder or create a new folder with the date. But stick to whatever method you choose!! Do not prepare any more. Go in. Edit your ass off and get to know those clips, you will have literally a hundred drafts, you will change things a million times, just get to work, and the mess will slowly disappear and you will be left with a straight coherent line of plot.
You are a brilliant filmmaker. Out of every RUclips channel there is I find yours the most useful for learning stuff on filmmaking. Keep it up, you are going to go far!
The moment where you cut to the other shot of him lighting his cigarette felt so appropriate. Editing is about all being appropriate that's why it's an invisible art ! Thank you Kris !
Brilliant effect!: 4:39 Thanks for your time and effort in making these videos. They are greatly appreciated...especially that you're presenting in 4K!
You have done a great job here. Some brilliant tips. And some great skills. I offer the following in the spirit of stimulation and constructive conversation as you seemed to be trying to initiate discussion. You have far more technical skill than I do, so I tend to focus on other aspects. I use artiface a little less. And try to concentrate on real moments and real imagery. It's definitely not "better" than what you do, I am not saying that, but it is a diffetent approach. ( Often it depends on the client, and on the story, right?) For me it is all about the talent, the subject participant. It's about building a relationship with them and getting them to tell you their story. You clearly managed to do that. But here are some of my own tips and observations (from 25 years o factual broadcasting, production and storytelling) 1. Get to know your talent. Spend time. Win their trust before you record anything with them. 2. Getting them to share their story with you honestly and sincerely is the MOST important thing. 3. Get to know your footage once you have shot it. .Really well. 4. Make a paper edit. It's important to have a plan, even if you choose not to follow it. 5. The story comes first. Not your clever idea. It's not about you. Sometimes you're best idea has to be binned. Only one question mattets: Does it work? 6. On a similar note, do not get too attached to a single element because you spent a long time on it or because it was difficult. It's not easy but try to see the bigger picture. 8. Less is often more. (Except when it's not) 7. Real life and rral events often crystallize into a moment. Help you talent to identify those moments, then have them recall them and relive them for you. 8. As well as paying attention to that kind of detail, don't lose sight of the big picture: the pacing and structure are crucial to engaging your audience and helping them to come on the journey with you. Thanks again for the video. It was really excellent. I really enjoyed it. I hope you don't mind me also offering my own views for your followers etc
Ga Wa love this! Great advice here and I agree completely. I think it’s important as you said to maintain the balance of getting really close to the story and becoming familiar while still maintaining enough detachment to make critical decisions that can improve it.
Yet another great and instructive video. You are indeed a brilliant filmmaker and your RUclips channel stands out from the park as one of the most useful for learning filmmaking. As part of this series, please can we have a video on your Milanote workflow or how you use Milanote to organize your thoughts. Hope I am not asking for too much? Thanks.
I am as far removed from the world of video editing as someone can possibly be, I think. But this is such a good and interesting video. Makes me want to give it a try as a hobby at some point😅
Heyy there!! i just wanted to thank you for your editing tips.it helps me a lot and i must say i'm a new to editing stuffs and i have my own youtube channel and i have no idea how to edit my video's but ,after watching your video's a million times i have learn a lot so thankyou so much for that..i hope you made these kind of video offen . and last but not least your 20min adobe video is something i watch in repeating mode ...
I have a high quality IMAC 27" monitor that I thought was calibrated. But when Kriscoart turned on his appropriately colored shadows in shots, I literally saw no change lol. Shadows on left side of the widened interview were black, he added shadows, still black.
Kris did you shoot this piece as well? I really connected with your thought process behind the editing on this. LOVE the tricky hand and ignition shot, the faked wide shot, etc. etc. Bravo! Thanx for sharing such a well done piece. Stay inspired!
Amazing what goes on in the edit, thanks for sharing.Please How do you decide the difference in volume(db) between the (1)Dialogue, (2)Soundtrack and (3)transition sounds/effect.?
Question about editing your film in a different language. Did you have a translator during the editing process (or know the language yourself) to ensure everything made sense and flow correctly?
Hi!! I'm peter and I'm following your job from Dominican Republic bacause I think that it's amazing the things that you do through your videos. For real you make me fell that I'm able to perform whatever things I want and that's great. I'm writter and I like telling story like movie or script... and I would like to know how can I sell my storys? if you have any idea about it, please let me know how can i do it?
What is your thought process for picking a music? Do you do it before you jump into a project (if you know exactly what kind of emtion you're trying to show) or do you select your clips, b-roll first and then try to find the music?
Wow, it is amazing how far we have come when guys your age do not know what a radiator fan is in a car! Not criticizing, just noting what is not part of your world.
Do you have any tips or stories to share as far as documentary filmmaking?

William Rose hey! Yes I shot the documentary 4 years ago with no crew. It was tricky but learned so much. Thank you for watching!

Question about editing your film in a different language. Did you have a translator during the editing process (or know the language yourself) to ensure everything made sense and flow correctly?
Great content! Most of the things in this video seams like a far fetched skill to me but still this is a delight to watch. GG.
P_kapa glad you enjoyed this. Thank you for watching!

thanx Brilliant !
How did you make the montage in the end? Did you record the ending in a higher framerate and kept everything else at 24fps?
What about the music I heard in there? Did you go to a music producer for it or is there a website to get free music from?
what a beautiful song you have in a background at 28:39 , who's the author? :)
master
杨大大 🙏😊
u r so smart :D
How i wish i can play it in 1080p
I know! I keep refreshing and its still low. I think its taking longer than usual because its 30 minutes of 4k
Wow, it is amazing how far we have come when guys your age do not know what a radiator fan is in a car! Not criticizing, just noting what is not part of your world.
files of video?
1:16 I hate that mouth sound.
Your RUclips videos are good, but your films have a very amateurish feel to them. Not sure you should be teaching people.
