He said people weren't going to have their minds blown but he definitely blew my mind haha. Your good at being subtle and you subtly just made everyone else feel like they suck haha but in all seriousness thanks for this motivation to level up my editing game.
No useless and distracting background music, no inartful attempts at humor, simply professional advice well delivered and demonstrated. I wish other similar videos would emulate this. Thank you.
This may not be ground breaking, but as someone starting out on the editing journey the final before and after cuts made me actually say WOW. Video editing is truly an artform.
10:42 - "That is way to aggressive prism blur on the background, *I don't want it to be noticeable."* - this is key! You can't notice it, but you can feel it.
I watch a lot of camera and editing related content and very rarely as a result do I now come across any hints, tips and tricks that I haven’t already heard and seen before. However in the past 12 minutes I’ve just picked up more learnings than I have in probably the last 3 years. Stuff like this is golden, and is more valuable to people than you’re probably aware of. Already implemented the prism thing in a job today, (always previously tried creating similar effect with masks, layers and gaussian blur, but could never quite nail the desired result. Tried this today, half the workflow, twice the gains. A very sincere THANK-YOU!!!
As a filmmaker myself, I get discouraged by the prices of all the equipment... however I love how Daniel makes commercials in his house with a very very minimal budget! This motivates me to keep going!
This is one of those RUclips videos that reminds you why you love this platform in the first place. Extremely well made. Very clear instructions. To the point. I mean wow. Just wow. Cant begin to say how impressed I am with this.
im sorry you started this video off with saying that this is all basic stuck, but you just made 90% of videographers better, I never knew anything about zoom, and rotation lol dang this is amazing
@@SpikeTheDankMeme I think they may be referring to how to use in a situation like Daniel shows in the video. I think all of us have been in situations where he had tools but someone showed us a new way to use it/apply it.
Daniel: "There's nothing groundbreaking". Me: Have seen almost all fcpx videos and didn't know you can change the "position keyframes" from smooth to linear. Tnx man!
That's the point, right? Basic operations used by a master will always result in stunning visuals, while noobs will think they need 10bit 422 before they can start creating anything.
Over the years I have come to appreciate how DS remains so true to the craft of filmmaking. Not only is he bonkers talented, but he also uses simple enhancements to clarify his footage and stand apart. Such great work, and particularly thankful that you share your insights with us. I know that you have personally impacted our young, up-and-coming YT channel. Thanks Daniel!
This video really helped me get another step closer to destroying my limiting beliefs. I have a bad habit of being easily discouraged if my shots are not the most innovative in the world, but this showed me the true power editing can have even on basic b-roll. Keep it up man
Dude, you may think what you did was BASIC and not Ground Breaking, but for those of us who stalk your channel and just starting out, for me, this is Next Level!!! I have not found anyone else who goes into the detail you do with video production and editing. MASTER CLASS!!!
This is the reason why he is one of the few that I still subscribe to. Peter, Matti, all of those guys that I loved in the beginning have turned into non-stop commercials. Daniel still provides great content!
HoLy CrAp the fact that your mind can think up those ideas to add to a 2 second panning clip of an object is ASTOUNDING. After each thing you'd add, I'd specifically think "well that looks great! He can be done with the shot now." but nope. This is just freaking cool.
Dude Schiffer, you are such an inspiring Figure to MILLIONS and that Includes me Thank you soooooooooooo Much for all these wonderful tutorials that you've been doing over all these years!!! Love ya bro 💙💙
You're right in that this isn't "ground breaking" stuff but what I love about simple tutorials like this is that I can usually walk away with one thing. Putting a sharpen on just the buttons and not on the whole subject. I dig that
Dude you are one of the best teachers out there, you just got that natural, perfect blend of articulateness and calmness mixed with interest and energy. Learned, alot thanks man! keep it up
Man you are really putting money into people’s pocket. Thank you for sharing, it’s honestly bloody mind blowing simply because you’ve done it with your touch. Your video is always entertaining
Thanks bro! These are the kind of tutorials that I've always been itching to watch! Nobody and I mean nobody nobody nobody nobody shows the editing process which is pretty much one of the most important parts!!!
Daniel: Nothing too crazy, won't blow your mind Me: mindblown

Quick summary to improve moving shot: - Stabilize - Add scale/zoom - Keep horizon even - Center subject - Add LUT color grading - Sharpen specific point on subject (subtle; keyframe to motion) - Add prism to background (subtle; invert mask after selecting shape; keyframe to motion)
This tutorial/video was super helpful, especially in regards to the horizon line! I use FCPX myself and didn’t even know I could bring that line up 😂 Just want to say you inspire the fuck out of me and I’ve learned more than half of what I know about cinematography from your channel. Coming from skateboarding to this art form, there is something about just falling in love with the process and creating your own style along the way that really shines through in your channel. I was super heavy into skateboarding myself and still pick up the board every once in awhile and I too see how my mentality from those days, helps me now with my drumming and my RUclips channel. Love your work. Love your channel. Hopefully we cross paths one day and talk treflips and shutter speeds💯👊🏻
I learned few new things too, that animation panel showing linear and smooth. Didnt know it exists. Thank u, I subbed for sure. Also, Do u have tutorial on gradient (linear or circular) shading/color grading similar to a vignette to make certain parts of the image pop more? I saw this being done in premiere but cant seem to find the tools in fcpx
Been using final cut for like 5 years and this is the first time I find there’s a horizon line tool 🤣🤣 this is some crispy footage tho!! Definitely groundbreaking to me ‼️‼️
Probably one of the best tutorials I have found on video editing. Lots of great tips in here. I would have never thought to shoot a shorter clip at 120fps and then slow it down. Also leveling the horizon line & Adding sharpening to certain points. All great tips! Thank you.
As a a photographer, this isn't in my typical wheelhouse, yet I do love editing my youtube videos in final cut. This video just instantly leveled up my game. Incredibly useful video. Thanks man!
The middle part of the clip where it goes off the center a bit looked more fluid and realistic to me, I wouldn't change that. But that's just me, I feel that being perfectly in the center the whole time gives that omniscient camera look from Fincher that I'm not particularly a fan.
When you start to reveal filmmakers secrets to everyone and we finally get the stunning footages! Thank you! What do you recomend to those people that can not shoot at 120 fps?
The only thing I would add to this is that if you're going to use the zoom technique you should shoot at a higher resolution than your export resolution. Zooming in 140% (!) on a 1080p clip is really not something I would recommend doing.
@@nomadsound 120 fps on this camera is 1080p. It works fine on RUclips but if you look closely you can see the compression and that there is soft details on the clock. The sharpening he is using just makes it worse in my opinion.
I think the current idea of "mind blowing" is really overrated. This was way too cool and informative to be reduced to a "bruh, seen better" mood. Learned a couple (more than a couple, to be sure) things, been entertained, felt the "I could try that from now on and get better at it!" spirit. Here's my like from the other shore of the Atlantic, sir.
simple, straight to the point, helpful, and educational. I knew how to use these effects but it's groundbreaking to learn how to put them all together to make something beautiful.
I dont know as a creator how you would feel about a video like this, but I think you should know that, although routine for you, this is really cool insight and teaches a lot of people valuable skills. Simple but very effective!
Legend has it that one day he will show his hair
😱
He hasn’t got the bowl cut tho has he 😉
leave his hair alone!!! lmaoo
LOL is this a thing???? Hey we can do a hatless video if that means it makes the content better 🚫🧢

Daniel you’re national treasure, your perfectionism shows in your shots. I truly admire your work, keep it up man.

He said people weren't going to have their minds blown but he definitely blew my mind haha. Your good at being subtle and you subtly just made everyone else feel like they suck haha but in all seriousness thanks for this motivation to level up my editing game.
Heartbeats Adventures I know there’s certain tools in Final Cut I didn’t even know existed. Even with the simplest of things ya learn something new.
No useless and distracting background music, no inartful attempts at humor, simply professional advice well delivered and demonstrated. I wish other similar videos would emulate this. Thank you.
Well said
What I loved the most is that your explanation is so clear that I can apply this in Premiere Pro easily :)
True, it's not complicated at all!!
I was thinking the same thing!
Yes but it is so much work for Just one clip ( I am a beginner (
Well how would you apply the prism effect in premier Pro?
Faseeh Rasool use the chromatic aberration effect and mask the background
This may not be ground breaking, but as someone starting out on the editing journey the final before and after cuts made me actually say WOW. Video editing is truly an artform.

Same. Came to comment this, but you said it so well.
Great man
"This is basic stuff. Nobody will be blown by this"
ME: *DROOLS*
Pegapit lol same
Looooool me too
LOL
So true...

How can u be a videographer while not knowing about zoom and rotation like wtf. It’s like he said: very basic techniques but perfectly executed :)
@@SpikeTheDankMeme I think they may be referring to how to use in a situation like Daniel shows in the video. I think all of us have been in situations where he had tools but someone showed us a new way to use it/apply it.
@@SpikeTheDankMeme I for one never considered leveling my shot to make it smoother using key frames. I always just tried doing it in camera. Haha.
What's up Tony? Fancy seeing you here! Haha!
Daniel: "There's nothing groundbreaking".
Me: Have seen almost all fcpx videos and didn't know you can change the "position keyframes" from smooth to linear.
Tnx man!
daniel is the one that undestands fcpx the most thats why he can explain things so easily compare to other youtubers
I had the exact same realization!
The only thing that is not true in this vid is when you told us that this footage won't blow our mind
That's the point, right? Basic operations used by a master will always result in stunning visuals, while noobs will think they need 10bit 422 before they can start creating anything.
Hahah touche
My exact thought!
And that non of this groundbreaking .... it surely is groundbreaking for a few people
Agreed!!

Thanks Daniel!
Wow this is awesome, you're right each individual step is pretty simple but all together they make such a huge difference!
For real
It's an art how some people can turn boring shots into THIS. Thank you for this video!
Love the simplicity of the techniques but the impressive impact it has on the footage.
5:42 - "Linear, smooth and linear" - Never heard of this technique, it's just genius!
The subtle zoom at 11:34 is genius!
This was so good Daniel. Loved how you made it look totally ad worthy. Now I need to practice 😅
It's super satisfying and all the adjustments are pretty straight forward.
Legend complimenting another legend 😃
From boring to cool, I liked it
This video really helped me get another step closer to destroying my limiting beliefs. I have a bad habit of being easily discouraged if my shots are not the most innovative in the world, but this showed me the true power editing can have even on basic b-roll. Keep it up man
Honestly, small tips like this are exactly what I've been looking for. I'm new to this and don't know all the keywords to look for.
Dude, you may think what you did was BASIC and not Ground Breaking, but for those of us who stalk your channel and just starting out, for me, this is Next Level!!! I have not found anyone else who goes into the detail you do with video production and editing. MASTER CLASS!!!
If you are skipping through the video, definitely watch 08:30 ! That's SUCH a valuable trick.
This technique might not blowup people's mind bro but it really did blew my mind, awesome content 😍👌🏻
Daniel always share his knowledge to others, that's why he becomes so clever and professional in his field 😍
This is the reason why he is one of the few that I still subscribe to. Peter, Matti, all of those guys that I loved in the beginning have turned into non-stop commercials. Daniel still provides great content!
How Daniel makes a boring shot more epic: Lots of really cool adjustments

Nice that you call out that it’s not groundbreaking, but it shows how you rock the shot in post.
Just that zoom and horizion fixing made a whole lost of difference
Mind Blown!
Super valuable stuff mate 👌🏻
I’m a photographer who wants to dabble in videography and I’m obsessed with your informational videos
He kept saying that this won't blow anyone's mind, then what is gonna blow a mind. Well done daniel
Man you are really putting money into people’s pocket. Thank you for sharing, it’s honestly bloody mind blowing simply because you’ve done it with your touch. Your video is always entertaining
As I watch this I think to myself, if there is anyone who I can say is a human Wizard, it's Daniel Schiffer. You are so knowledgeable.
You edited a video of you editing a video. Mind blowing. Skills. Respect.
Man I want more videos like these. I love actually seeing what was done, not "I did color grading and added effects here its better " lol
0:42 the way he says "borrowing" is so Canadian that it should just be the national anthem

- Add prism to background (subtle; invert mask after selecting shape; keyframe to motion)
thanks man, imma copy this for sure :)
Also, it helps to shoot in higher resolution than final delivery so the digital zoom still looks good.
What is the software?

I can see you don't like decimal number in your settings. Like that sharpening, you just type in 4 instead of leave it at 3.xx
Haha that’s true!
well, as an amature filmmaker this to me IS groundbreaking and my mind has been blown. Thank you Daniel
