"How much of your creativity are you willing to abandon for more views?" ... woah... I think I need to sit down....
You should upload weekly, and you got big views, you'll make big bucks man. But yeah, we can't forcefully do things, or else it will make it feel like a job when this is post to be a creative job 😂
Actors have balanced this.
The ability to complete commercial blockbuster movies AND create and fulfill their artistic needs with artistic films.
The expression is:
one for them, one for me.
Obviously you can't hijack a channel and change their pacing, but you can work on other projects.
prvo su stuberi komentirali a sada i ti ahahahaha
I don't particularly agree
It hit me as well. Ive sorta known it, but hearing it aloud made it sink in.
There's RUclipsrs who put hardly any editing in their videos and blow up faster than someone who puts hundreds of hours into a project (usually because of frequency)
But there is so much truth to that line of abandoning creativity
RUclips is about providing value. Some creators can provide value with minimal editing. Some can't.
Personally, i have a hard time speaking to the camera. I use editing to hide that. If i didn't suck at talking, i wouldn't have to edit my videos nearly as much. I hide it really well. I get comments all the time about people saying how amazing i am on camera.... its all fake
@@VegasEducationsome people have natural charm and charisma, some have learnt it for years. That's what keeps the viewers hooked.
@arrow2380 i have no natural charm. I can fake it. If that were the only problem, id be in the clear. The real problem for me is that i cant think and talk at the same time. I have to pause and collect my thoughts. Sometimes, mid sentence.
It hurts man. Seeing crap footage from someone else explode for no reason and have a video you toss some time editing at and it flops.
@@VegasEducation Are you speaking of me ? 🤔
"How much of your creativity are you willing to abandon for more views?". I stopped the video right there to sit and think on that for a bit. That's honestly one of the most impactful questions I've ever heard asked in the creative space
The more you sacrifice creativity for views, the easier it’ll be for AI to take your job
My editing dad 👶
Yes same for me.
This channel singlehandedly reignited my love for editing. Now I am working on my sound design feel.
This channel makes you appreciate video... Gives you superb perspective and decision making compass while editing.
I feel the same. I was pretty burnt out and took a break, but watching these videos reignited my passion for editing, as well as leveling up my skills
It’s my favorite part of the creative process.
This reminds me a lot of being a musician too. Like how all the great musicians will change up a solo or how they sing song because they get bored of it but general audiences just want that usual version of it. Editing feels the same way, you just get bored of doing the same typical edit and you want to flash something artistic when maybe it doesn't fit the story. It really is about being disciplined to find those right moments in an edit or story to flash that creative side that actually services the story and not your creative needs haha.
10:43 ripped me apart brother. I've had this inner need for other people to appreciate my creative process like I do for so long. Now I know it's never gonna happen, and maybe it shouldn't. Awesome video man.
Editor's resentment is something i struggle with as well. I recently edited a friend/business partner's documentary short and loved the first complete version ... he came back with a bunch of notes to remove things, chop up segments, etc. and it threw me off. I suddenly didn't care about the project and let my passion for it go. I saw the edit through, but it was a struggle and a half. Personally i really liked your artistic version of the mr beast video. "How much of your creativity are you willing to give up for views?" I am going to staple that to the wall above my editing station. That hits so damn hard.
The 5 one just makes me think about movies. Like before I watched video editing stuff I would have never noticed all the artistic aspects of the movies I watch. Now I see almost every way they help tell the story on a first watch.
I'm one minute in and I found myself leaning in, completely captivated by this video. Good storytelling fascinates me so much.
Such great secrets!! Thanks for the shout out Hayden, it means a lot coming from you! 🙏
I’m so excited Kelly is finally getting the attention he deserves I’ve been watching him since he was in high school, watching his evolution has been so awesome
Same here dude!! I've also been watching Kelly since his Waka-fruit snacks merch era in high school. I just recently had the honor of meeting him, Luke, Wyatt, Colt, Ashley, and Amber in Coney Island for the end of his bucket list series. Such a fun group of creative minds!
All such beautiful venues. Congrats to you both!
Love this, amazing video!
Such a fan. Thank you for these videos Hiller!
So true! Thanks for your masterclass sage wisdom! In sales, less is more and finding that line of abandoning creativity so King! "How much of your creativity are you willing to abandon for more views?" says it all!
2 out of 5 and still I feel that I don't know anything. As I often feel, but full of joy and inspiration after watching a Hillier Smith video. Thank you for the amazing insights and artsy take on hard facts. Love it. And that last point is really mindboggling.
Absolutely mind-blowing! @HillerSmith your content is literally gold!
Amazing breakdown of these tips Hayden! Been watching Kelly's videos lately and the editing is so good but the vlogs still feel so personal and not overly produced.
I’ve been in a bit of an editing rut and this video sparked inspiration. I’m taking this into my next video.
Incredible video! I love the storytelling in this one! What a great job leading us as the audience along for the ride! Kept me engaged. I couldn't look away!!!
I just need more of your videos!!!!❤
Best channel on the art of editing. I look forward to seeing how far you sell out to create the balance between art and viewer grasp. Either way, I'll always be a fan. Awesome commentary
I sincerely thank you for this video, Hiller! An amazing piece of artwork sharing immensely useful information. Thank you!
Thank you Hayden for the tips
Geat video! I needed to hear this! Thank you! 😄
You're my favorite to watch when it comes to learning something. And that's what the channel is designed for! Your artsy work is appreciated.
Thanks for the tips Hillier
I'm stuck editing a project... came here to get some inspiration... and leaving with answers I didn't even know I needed!!! Thanks man!!!
Love your stuff man, you inspired me to try making videos for myself. So thank you.
The question made me so much goosebumps, insane thing i have think of since i started. Insane video!
This is a banger of a video wow bro, I'm a editor full time doing it at a big sport brand, this has gave me mad inspiration! appreciate you sharing the tips, writing notes.
Thank you, I really needed this video.
Thanks Hillier, I enjoy your videos for both the knowledge and the artsiness, I appreciate your hard work.
Simply the best tips I've ever seen!
Thankyou this was very helpful especially the tip about the eye tracing
Really solid advice man, and it feels really genuine. Thanks
Enjoyed the concepts, thank you!
Learned so much from this. A simple Thank You isn't enough gratitude. Keep doing what you're doing.
Gosh, you are so inspiring!
Me who can’t even edit 👁️👄👁️
Yet it's amazing!
This was great! Appreciate you giving us some insider editing tips! 🙏🏽
Absolute editing gold!
I'm really loving your videos and have been thinking about these issues for a while.
As one who decided to do film making when I retire (I'm 57), I've already started my first project and am editing it now.
Your videos are so inspiring and practical. Thank you!
bro so freaking good. absolutely love this. educational and entertaining. well done sir.
Brilliant As ALWAYS!
Thanks Hillier it's nice to see you spit some info
Great philosophy. Very useful guidance.
A very good video! Valuable information! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
thank you so much i learnt so much of you!
Inspiring content as always. Given me lots to think about.
This was one of your best videos man, proud of you and well done 👏 stoked to take this into action
This is the best video I’ve watched of yours. Well played 👏
I'm new to this whole thing but I just learned a ton from this video. Thank you so much for this and everything else you put out.
Wow! This is one of the best Editing videos I've ever watched! Thank you!
This was an amazing video and I love it. Very helpful insights.
Nice thanks for making this.
Always a masterclass
Always love your videos because they're so impactful and make you think. Recently my style is changing because I found my previous videos a bit boring and not fun to make. I love the creativity and the stick out moments of vlog channels, that connection and presence with the viewer. So i changed my style and now I'm thinking about my "action" sequence of making and eating desserts 😅
Amazing video brother ❤- I like how your music tempo went up and up and up and then boom…. The question and then mellow music
Number 3 blown my mind away
Great tips, thanks
Phenomenal. Your videos never miss man
I loved the last point, because... as a newbie... I can say this one I knew as a Club/Wedding Dj.
I learned the hard way earlier in my career that this principle applies.
I remember going to another dj's set about 20 years ago, (Before all the software we have now) who did his set, in key. To a discerning ear at the time, was completely brilliant, to the mainstream crowd... their reaction was ... meh. Play for your audience. = "who are you making your video for"?
LOVE IT!!
It’s pretty cool learning from all these editors and we wouldn’t have the insight snd perspective without you being the one to collect the thoughts of the movies we love ❤
I love the way you drink wine to be closer to the audience, it's like we're old buddies going on a journey together to learn editing, and the commentary feels like a character development storyline for yourself too!
While I love the editing tips I feel like you're a great teacher/videomaker from all these little things and it keeps me wanting to come back to the next video to learn more.
I definitely learnt a lot from your videos so thanks for the amazing content!
The fifth statement point really shock and change my perspective.
This is so profound
Thanks for the breakdown
I'm ready to see your next major project.
lots of interesting and deep information. wow. thanks for sharing.
I can't believe I wasn't already subscribed. Absolutely beautiful, insightful, and engaging. Notifications turned on!
Knowledge is power... but this was Pure GOLD👌🏿
Best video you’ve made so far, thanks :)
I love you totally love you !!!
I can relate so much from tip 5 since the people i've been working together since, I realized that they don't seem impressed in my creative way in editing videos. But from then on I realized I need to adjust to what the internet or the poeple the style of video that they wanted to see and it really works for me...
Mind blowing
I was thinking I hadn't seen your content in ages. Then realised you haven't posted in ages! Glad to see it back.
this is amazing stuff!! I also, always write down in my notepad in points a summary of what the video will be with transition, montage, etc. ideas where I want them to go, for it to make more sense as a whole piece, and makes the process less overwhelming. I think the last point is a bit that too, choose where to use the crazy motion stuff and where to keep it simple to serve the story. I think that's a mistake lots of youtubers make, its to make an intro all about trying to grab someones attention with effects. the most efficient way to grab someones attention is to ask a question.
This is seriously one of the best videos I've watched in years. Informative, inspiring, completely keeping me captivated, and thought-provoking as a filmmaker and editor. (Much more editing these days than actually making films) New subscriber here. Thank you for making this.
God this is amazing. So easy to watch and learn.
Usually in your videos I see an amazing editor, an awesome artist, but in this video, I think, I saw a glimpse of your soul. Great work.
I agree!
That last one hits deep. Real deep. It's like abandoning a piece of yourself to be more successful.
love this ❤
Great video and I’ll be trying to use these techniques- sometimes the most simple things are hiding in plain sight
Wow, I'm glad I found that channel. What a creative place!
I swear mate, every video you release is golden information syrup. Thank you for blessing us.
fye video, appreciate the tips!
I love number 5. I'm building an ad video business and this is something I think a lot about. Because at my core I am an artist, but to make a living I sometimes have to sacrifice a part of that in my client work. It's a big dilemma for us video guys, I love that you're talking about it
!
Got a notification about this video just as I was about to start editing my video. Now my editing is about to get better!!!
Nothing better in procrastinating editing than watching a video in editing to justify to ourselves that we're editing.
@@HillierSmithhahahaha saaaaame xd
"5 Editing Secrets You'll Be Embarrassed You Didn’t Know" is a title from which I would normally expect some beginner-level editing tips and tricks. Yet, I was shocked with the phenomenal value in the video. GREAT JOB!
As a part time TikTok editor, who also is having a drink, I was sucked into this video and enjoyed all the editing that went into this vid. From showing your authority at the beginning all the way to how fluid the sponsor section was incorporated this gave me value even though it was not explained or was not even the point of the video! I am rambling now but just wanted to let you know, great job!
Kelly is such a huge inspiration ❤
I def feel the struggle balancing creativity & optimization. Great title btw
The last bit is a game changer, really gave me perspective.
the last one gave me goosebumps mate
LFG🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 can’t wait to watch
This video is spot on man … I make reaction videos not to many edits just raw and it works tbh
Great video man, I aspire to make long form videos like yours.
