If you are ever in Hawaii come sit at our Chef's Table and enjoy a 7-course fine dining meal on us would love to pick your brain on your editing craft for my cooking food channel.

      Thank you both for sharing this. We've learned a lot from the content you've both shared. Still working on applying it all. Love the wave/beach analogy. A realisation we've arrived at recently, focusing on quality not quantity - aiming for a bigger wave each time... Working one step at a time towards that tsunami!

Of course, things are a lot easier now and I'm super grateful that I didn't give up and stayed patient all the way through. Consistency and hard work (I had to use Famester along the way, but it made it much more enjoyable and easier so I don't regret it) is the key and it always pay off. Good luck to everybody, you will make it soon.

    One thing I don't think you get enough comments about is how good your interview style is.
    I feel like there were so many points in this discussion where other interviewers would have interrupted, rightfully so in some places to ask Hillier to emphasise a point, but you let him run with it and then ask intelligent follow up questions.
    Loved this entire thing, great job.

    The best bit I got from this video, noted down:
    At the end you as the watcher should have changed. Whether it's emotional, a thought process or a new idea.
    If you've watched the video and got a completely new perspective or a new emotion you've done a good job
    If your audience has the same emotion at the start of the video and at the end, you have a problem
    Your content hasn't done enough for them, there's no change, no new memory
    The creative process is asking yourself how can I take them on that journey...
    What emotion are they going to start with and what emotion do I want them to feel at the end
    Here's what they know now and what will they know at the end

    Man this is what I needed to see today!!! I’m 34 and since I was 13, I’ve been a creator; music, film, animation. Etc but my first love is music. I got into it because of my passion for writing. After being told I had a talent for writing music by teachers and family and friends that I respected, I dove in head first by 14 yrs old. I had a full recording studio by the end of the year and what I realized almost immediately was that while writing and recording were amazing, I found myself really coming to life and finding my true artistic self in the editing and mixing.

    I already watched this video back to back about 8 times (NO JOKE) because there is so much to learn from.
    I honestly don't know why it isn't picking up. I've been having the same issue with my channel. My guess is your CRT is below 4% and I can only imagine what you AVG TW is (I think it should be at least 6 minutes). My channel growth sort of stagnated and channels like yours and Hillier Smith have been a great eye opener for me to bring my stuff to the next level. Though my content is completely different, there is a lot to learn from you guys. I have some theories as to why your channel is not picking up which may have to do with the theme not quality. Anyway, thank you for all the knowledge you provide.

  • @themilesinkorea
    @themilesinkorea 2 года назад +3

    Many excellent tips here! I’m a relative beginner at editing video but an idea ->
    Maybe one way to deal with the video duration issue is to release two versions: A longer version ~ as people are asking for this interview, even ~ and a short version (with likely YT/Tik Tok/other shorts also)? Naturally, they can go in different playlists and be marketed as different versions. End screens could refer to the other version, also (e.g., the short version to share with a friend).
    The long version could even be released earlier to test it somewhat and give time for the content to sink in for the creator, then the short version is released. If this might lose too many people, then try to do the best we can on a short first?
    If a version doesn’t work well on a channel, then maybe have a different channel, like Casey’s Shorts, or put a longer BTS on IGTV, for example, which I heard was good for posting such.
    Hope that’s useful! Not sure if it’ll work well but I hope to try it sometime.

    Editing as an art form and self-expression is so true! It's such a valuable thing to know and it's been such a fun thing to learn. For me at least there's almost a different mentality in editing vs writing a script - this is your first thought, then this is how you revisit it, and all the while it's a way to let your personality speak.

      It’s a beautiful thing. It’s so fulfilling seeing my old videos (this isn’t my main channel) and to know I’m growing and getting better. 🤗

    I just wanted to say that you're one of the channels I enjoy watching the most and the time and effort you put into this video as well as other videos inspires me to both create and watch :)
    Keep up the good work! ❤️
    Ps:
    Ofc I watch Hiller Smith, so this is the perfect combo :)

  • @TalonGaming_YT

    Great video and explanation. It's funny, because I've been telling friends to try and keep their videos a little shorter to help keep interest/retention higher and here you are re-iterating this for me. People have relatively short attention spans (Tik Tok, Shorts, Reels etc highlight this) and stretching something out is counter-productive. Thanks for sharing your insights!

  • @persvanstrom
    @persvanstrom 2 года назад +3

    One of my two favorite channels / people in the same video. Just brilliant video. One question that keeps me busy is that most suggestions or insights are about entertaining videos. Blowing up is rarely a tutorial video. I just started my channel. I do tutorial videos so far and I'm struggling both to keep the "entertaining" and keep audience retention. Got any advice?

    I checked the timeline i was at 3:00. 5 seconds later the video was done. I literally did not feel the 11 minutes And am going to watch another one now.
    Keep what you are doing i prefer these pieces of content rather than being regular and posting garbage everyday. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

  • @SethYoderMusic
    @SethYoderMusic 2 года назад +3

    Great vid! The last couple minutes made me think. If you're in the RUclips game to become a star, you're in for disappointment *100%* of the time. Even if you do hit "star" status, the memory of you will fade away. Every time. We're just like vapor. Here, then gone. So stop striving to make people like you and your channel, and start serving other people with your content (and your life). This is where the fullness (not to be confused with ease) of life is found-in loving God with all you have and are, and loving others as you do yourself.

    There isn’t a ton of RUclips help content specifically geared towards entertainment vlogs (in comparison to like, niche down and talk about cooking lol), so I found this very interesting and useful. I hope one day, through trial and error, I can be this good! Lots of quality bits in here

    I always thought good editing was tons of cool transitions, sounds, music etc. But I was wrong. The last video Ive done was edited down to almost nothing and its my most viewed video. This is incredible advice from Hillier.

    the editing grind is by far the hardest part for me, but I feel like I'm starting to catch on how to edit down my warzone vids to keep attention. Always room to grow! Thank you for the informative video!!!
