      Katie there is a problem with the video because it stops playing at around 11.55 until 12.16.

      @igoslomo 6 месяцев назад +2

      Kinging it and Eamon and Bec and Kara and Nate are the bomb! I’ve recently become addicted to “chapter by chapter” with Philly and Keely… they are just a young feel good couple who make me laugh.

    Yes to Davinci! A lot of the tutorials out there are more cinematic/filmic in emphasis, which sometimes doesn't feel relatable when you just want to learn quickly.

I'm venturing naively into the world of video editing, and I was thinking to myself recently 'where the heck do I start, I want to avoid making this look ridiculous'. It's quite overwhelming with so much to learn - this video could not have come at a better time. So yes please, I vote for some more editing tutorials. Thank you once again for sharing.

    You are one of my fav RUclipsrs FOR THAT EXACT REASON.
    Seeing you teach us in your van, out in the desert, or swinging on your hammock....

    Plus, I'm not only interested in improving my content creation,
    but also interested in travel and seeing others adventure!!

      Quick Pro Tips: don't waste your time renaming clip! In to your video editor app just sort them by date or hour, camera or whatewer you like :) Then before drag them in the timeline select all the clips for each camera you have, and give them a colour so you can quickly identify them in your timeline. Peace❤💫✌

  • @LisaAdams.75
    @LisaAdams.75 6 месяцев назад

    These are the types of tips and tricks I appreciate. I needed the tip on the renaming footage to make it in chronological order, this is such a time saver! I have begun on devinci resolve for the free factor and so far it's great but still learning. Now I need to see if it has a labeling option. I suffer from edit fatigue, especially when Im looking at myself constantly and I'm losing what it is I am trying to say! I have to get my partner in to look at it with fresh eyes. Mind you I have edited more than I have posted lol. Only uploads are from 5 years ago on an old channel. Ive been editing old footage for a new channel as well as new footage. I'm so lost with where to start! I am trying to bridge the gap somehow by telling a story.
