I'm Hayden Hillier-Smith, on this channel I will break down what makes good editing...pulling back the curtain on how editors make the choices to keep YOU, THE AUDIENCE engaged. This includes showcasing the creative choices I have made.
And exploring the editorial process for other RUclips channels in how they have optimised their content. I’m even going to take you through my journey where I experiment on how I can become a better editor and learn through my experiences.
Whatever it is that I do on this channel, I hope you can learn something and discover your own ability on being a content creator yourself.

Beautiful work ❤️
As a novice who edits his own videos, I have this rule wherein I allow myself 2 "sleeps" before I press "publish" or "send" on my editorial type videos. Just something about waking up even after a nap allows me to re-assess my supposed masterpiece and helps me refine a lot from the first draft.
2 sleeps is definitely my minimum as well!

This is great advice. I'm new to RUclips but I've been writing my entire life and I follow this rule when possible. You always see things more clearly after a break. I call it pre-crastinating - I get the work done in advance then wait until the urgency of the deadline to make final tweaks.
2 sleeps are
Fun fact, this video edit was my second draft.
I've looked back at it a few hours later and there's so much I want to improve on.
I still hate my English teacher though.
If may ask, why didn't you add footsteps to the roommates running by?
@@rne1223 I think that would have been cool too
WHAT IS YOUR OUTRO SONG
Forgive the newbie question although I've been editing quite awhile. I've never used stock footage, where do you get yours?
I absolutely enjoyed your video! I thought I saw a way to make the end a bit snappier, so decided to try it out. I'm really curious to see what you think about it, if it were options that you tried and did not go with (and why then) or maybe implemented in your third (or fourth) edit!
You can watch it here!

This is a note for the viewers:
Not always cutting those empty spots is something you should do, in this context it was, but pacing and space to breathe are important in other contexts
Such great info! Appreciate you giving out this amazing info for free

Great video Hayden
Absolutely!
I love your channel
I'm actually a tuition teacher
When I saw some Mr beast videos and pewdiepie videos I saw a correlation of jump cuts which I didn't know was a thing went to tik tok Chinese tik tok looked at some jurassic park scenes and the same thing momentum and perfect cuts.
I applied the same concept on my students to keep them interested in learning. The reason some teachers are boring because they emphasise on something too long where the kid lost interest in that topic or chapter
Thank you RUclips for opening my eyes.

@@iquofficialthapelomamaile2987 I think he is using Final Cut..coz in one of his videos he said he is a professional final cut editor
"Never upload your first edit"
Me who spent 10 hours editing my video: Wow, This is worthless
🤣🤣 true with me as well
I can feel you.
😂😂👍🏻
Great point. They're saying keep editing. Bruh, I have half a day on this first edit. Lol
I honestly think it can depend on the video too.
I find your work flow so interesting and appreciate the time you spent explaining your steps toward making the final result much more engaging. Keep up the good work man!
You post so much high quality content. I’m constantly taking notes from you! Thank you for showing so much of the detail oriented side of things. One of my favorite channels on YT
And...that's also how to make an extra promotion for something :) Great idea
I can really appreciate the info you put out and how you displayed it! You're a talented filmmaker. It always amazes me seeing youtubers create films comparable to professional films
Man this deserves way more views and likes and subs and all that jazz. Great insight and entertainment, glad I found you through a interview you did on here
It’s crazy how he gives so much info in a video but also makes it engaging!!
Hayden, I found you a week ago and subscribed immediately! Some of the most informative and entertaining content creation videos in the UNIVERSE! You are going to blow up! This will be a top channel VERY soon! Thank you for the excellent teaching!
I feel like I should be paying to watch this content, it's really informative
That's why RUclips is a beautiful website, my brother. Everything is FREE!
@@HillierSmith no, YT Premium :)
Hey Hayden, I hope you're reading this. When I saw you on Impaulsive, you've lit a spark inside of me to start editing video's. I love the fact that you are sharing your knowledge on your channel. Because of corona, I've lost my job and couldn't afford my groceries. Thanks to you I've started my journey as a freelance video editor and I'm already making a living out of it. You have litteraly changed my life and you are a true inspiration. For that, I wanted to thank you, for real ❤️
Dude, I'm so proud of you! Keep going!
Hilliers mind is just on another level, in 8 minutes I learn so much, honestly I always like and comment your videos for the algorithms, can't wait to see you hit your first 1 mil subs
There is a different between editing
And
Hayden's editing 👌🏻😎
hahah wow according to your username this is a "legit fact", too 😂
@@HillierSmith yes G it is a legit fact
This channel is all about FACTS you can checkk it
@@legitfactsinternational720 That's a fact...Jack
@@HillierSmith can you make a video on video narration techniques?
Just stumbled upon this channel and honestly this has been very eye opening. The amount of detail I never even thought about for my edits was shocking, thank you so much for this. Keep up the good work !!
Great editing on this editing video. Good luck with the production. 😊
Honestly the difference between those both editing clips were very noticeable and better. Well done brother you taught me more about editing and you have earned yourself a new sub. Happy New Years everyone!!!!
Loved the video. It’s something that us as editors need to hear that we can always improve our work!
Great video Hayden
This was a good way to incorporate fun yet informative; great insights. Definitely can watch a Playlist of these
This was really cool. I love how you show us your inner thought process. THANK YOU.
Those illustrations make the trailer feel cheap, you're a great editor, but this aint it.
Yea
But you get the idea...
@@Realdanielmiguel The trailer's idea, or the video's? Either way could've maintained a more cohesive tone
I was thinking the same!
That's what I was thinking exactly, though I know this was old so I was like "damn he improved and this isn't even a year old."
You're a goddam creative genius. Truly built to be a story teller. Love these breakdowns thank uuu
I absolutely LOVE how you changed the trailer and explained everything!! I love editing so much and recently I've been re- editing my videos before just posting up the first draft. It's so important! Your videos are really informative, I love your set up, and your quality is top notch. Yes your English teacher was right... And even though it may have taken you years to see that, look at you now!! I will subscribe for more tips as this is now the third video I've watched of yours... Thank you!!
I can't believe you edited this! Been having your channel pushed to me lately a bunch and I'm loving the content! Watched this film the day it came out and I absolutely loved it, I think I rewatched it with several different friends and they also loved it! So great job!
Should’ve told me this a year ago 😂
Mate, it took me so long for me to learn myself. There's a reason my early videos are all on private. 😂
@@HillierSmith hahahahaha
Great Info 🔥
Yep
lmao im the 69th LIKE
Been watching you a ton in between editing Amazing videos! (Have watched this one multiple times)
Love your storytelling skill buddy ... great one!
this guy is goated
a verified person, with no replies...
Just a little tip. Instead of making your sound design mono, you can use paning to give it a little bit more depth.
I just watched this video with my old lady. She doesn't even video edit, and yet she enjoyed the hell out of it. Solid work, sir.
Hayden... you are the donut's with my coffee! I couldn't stop binging on this video. I am not in this space but do make videos from time to time. Got some great takeaways from this - especially about capturing attention, story telling nuances and pacing. Keep up the great work and... stay curious! 🤓
I’ve always wanted you to make videos since I saw you in Logan’s videos! These are great!
Thanks so much for that, Zach! I appreciate it! 😊
@@HillierSmith great work
Outro music? I absolutely love it
This is a really good trailer! Only thing that I didn't like too much was the use of stock illustrations in the intro. It looks more like a powerpoint presentation rather than a trailer, other than that, you are solid! Good job
This is a great reminder. Thanks for encouraging us to do a second draft. It makes us be more creative. I really like that.
Great video Hayden ! U are a master at editing !
Thanks for this man, I needed someone to tell me this 😂

He's right!

This dude is my new bible for editing! Already got so many tips that are fire, time to binge!
Damn ... This was so much information ... This is me seeing your second video
Subscribed with notifications.
Learning with you is awesome
Thanks, Rohit! Glad to have you here.
That's totally true. I uploaded a video after first render and I was so disappointed, I saw so many mistakes and room for improvement. But hey, that was actually my lesson, and then I got this video in recommended page, that was not a coincidence I guess. Totally givin a sub and watch more videos. Thanks for people like you giving out a ton of free tips what to do better to improve editing
Great info mate. I Will start using this technique more from now on :)
Super great video man.. Glad I discovered this channel!
haydon wasup dude love the vids
so much value from these videos
Great vid gave me new perspective on editing videos! sound effects really will level up the scene. Thanks!
Loved the cuts on the second version! Nice tips for improving our projects. Let's go for second drafts in 2022
1 big mistake: RUclips compression will KILL ANY CLIP WITH CONFETTI so you have to like watch the video in 8k on a 2k screen just because of the compression thing yes we all hate it
Resolution won't change anything related to compression. You can watch the clip at 8k but it'll still be compressed
If actually tried waiting g a few days and then going over the edit again beforehand it worked because it was much better
Wow this is exactly what I needed to understand what motivates clips and camera movements and such. New sub.
This really informs creators a lot about the importance of value in every moment
this man is best editor on yt
*change my mind*
point proven. you have no replies. I just made a few vlogs, it's my few and I put a lot of time into it. It's only 3 minutes of your entire day to watch and it'll make mine! (sorry to self promote btw but I have no clue how else to get recognized)
@@kentonbui6794 ok imma watch it and if i like it ill sub lol
This video made me look at editing a lot different
Amazing content. It’s simple yet the tips go a long way. Makes me appreciate editing as an art form.
Great video ! and good luck with your Film
am a music producer and same thing happens to me with music, i make a beat at night and the next day i feel like its trash and i get new ideas
What service do you use to to find music and stock footage? I always love the diff music you use in your edits 👌💯
epidemic is good for music and story blocks is good for stock footage. I hope that helps. IF you dont mind, I just made a few vlogs, it's my few and I put a lot of time into it. It's only 3 minutes of your entire day to watch and it'll make mine! (sorry to self promote btw but I have no clue how else to get recognized)
@@kentonbui6794 Sure thing bro! Will definitely check your vids out :)
Which app does he use to edit?
You earned the sub brother! thanks for consistently presenting useful info!
Great information. Really had fun watching this.
Hayden. What’s your experience with premier pro? Do you recommend final cut or premiere pro?
It depends if you have a PC or Mac. If you have a PC you can't get final cut pro. But a Mac can run both. However, since a Mac and final cut are both produced by Apple, final cut has a much faster rendering rate. I hope that helps. I just made a few vlogs, it's my few and I put a lot of time into it. It's only 3 minutes of your entire day to watch and it'll make mine! (sorry to self promote btw but I have no clue how else to get recognized)
@@kentonbui6794 thanks for the insight - I’ll be sure to check it out!
did anyone else notice the "new years eve 2020" in the first draft? No, only me?
oh trust me I noticed, that's why I changed it 😂
@@HillierSmith XD
Because you're content was sooo on point, i subbed. Gudlak
Ok yeah that cut at the end is so good holyyyy like damn the timing is so good omg jealous asf
I'm sure you are not the only one who hate English Teachers..🙄
Spoilers “never upload your first edit”
Wow that was a twist ending thanks for ruining it. 😂

So this is the third time I watch one of your videos. Like mentioned in one of your others videos - I took the hint of the algorithm and subscibed ✌️
Great work! Inspiring and well thought out!
Holy shit, thank you so much for all of these videos! I'm so keen to apply everything for my future videos. Looking back on what I've already made, I notice all the improvements I could make and what I'd do differently. Love it!
Man, your videos are the awesome! Great job!

I really enjoy your content my dude, keep up the good work🙌🙌
I'm so glad I found your channel. I had no idea what I was doing with my editing. lol
I liked the city intro with the stock white letters better than the new intro tbh...
I also noticed you mentioned to keep eye level when making cuts in another video and you broke your own rule multiple times here.
I did learn a lot in this video, thank you. Your other videos have been helpful too.
Awesome info(again)!
I'm following much YT advice and my content is improving.
Thanks.
OMG, I LOVE that technique of dragging articles of clothing across the camera to make it look like people are walking by. lol I don't know if I'll EVER need that but thank you anyway. Get's the creative juices flowing.
Dude just recently found your channel. Such great info. Uploading my first video to the channel tomorrow implementing a lot of your adivce so we will see how it goes haha
Ok, I wanna thank you for this video. I was working on a project and while rendering I took a break. During that break, I saw this video and it brought me to thinking that what can I enhance more into it! I stopped the rendering, worked on the edit and I made my video look more appealing. ThankYou!! A lot to learn from you!!
I was about to launch my RUclips channel this week and I stumbled across your channel. Now I’m binge watching everyone of your videos and starting my channel after I fix everything!
Perfecting an already perfect trailer..cutting out 13 sec out of a tight cut edit..man you are a magician!! Thank you for sharing your tricks with us. Much appreciated ❤❤
As a creator and someone that is absolutely passionate about video editing, I really enjoy your videos and they’re huge tips and gives me perspective on things I could focus on to make me better at what I love to do. THANK YOU!
