I bought LumaFusion for iPad! It’s interface is incredible and I love being able to do all of my work on the couch instead of the desk chair. It also syncs wonderfully with iCloud and the Files app which is what I use to house all of my content creation things.
Because you might have the best sentence later and you mess up initially..so when editing from end youll see the better version initially and you keep them.. whereas if you start from front..you'll need to play all the way to the end and then come back to cut down the bad part
The Flow transition effect is called Morph is Adobe Premiere. I had been using all of the other tips already, but this one was new to me, and it’s exactly what I need for the video I’m currently working on. Thanks!
OMG I LOVE TIP #1 with editing through the audio wavelengths. I clap when I make a mistake and then use that wavelength to clip out the blooper. People tell me they think I am a natural LOL. Who else loves talking head shots?
Joy Mae - Millennial Money Talk I do something similar (or did, until this video)...I use hand signals on video - shaking my hand (like I'm standing on 2 Queens, or a thumbs-up...just something I can quickly identify and cut out knowing a better take is right after
I got tired of wearing out my hands... Went to Petco and bought a dog training clicker for about $2... 3 clicks = Starting/Ending video (for timing separate audio channel to camera) 2 clicks = starting a topic/paragraph/section 1 click = I messed up, doing it again I'll also put my hand over the lens and remove it if I'm going to make some verbal notes about editing as in, "I actually liked the second take better than the 4th take so check if I'm right and I just got an idea to do a video about puppies, write that down in our topic list!" It's saved my hands and a fortune in time! One more trick if you record time separate from video... I've noticed a dealy with OBS Studio so you can't actually line up the spikes in audio. When I start, I do 3 clicks then say "One, Two, Three." I over emphasize the mouth movement and drag the words out (Threeeeeee) then line up the audio with the mouth. One is the best word, two just verifies and the three should end when I relax my moutn.
@@greencertifiedweb thank you for sharing this! I've been looking for a way other than clapping to edit to sound and this fits the bell, much appreciated :)
I'm using iMovie for now - one of your previous tips videos for iMovie really helped me get into it! The keyboard shortcuts are a revelation lol. Thank you for the tips here! I'm going to experiment with the crop in/outs - it definitely does give it more polish and adds a little visual interest as well!
Awesome tips! I'm editing my next video in Premiere Pro at the moment, and I'll definitely try all of these out. Anyone else editing a video right now?
I think it was Omar that had a previous tip about editing “backwards” - since generally your last take is the one you want. Probably be easier by looking at wave forms. Thanks for putting this out Nolan! Great stuff. Hey
Thank you SO much! Great "hacks", especially the very first one. I was already using the waveforms a little when finding clips, but like a dummy I've still been listening to each one and only skipping forward to the next clip when I hear a mistake. Just jumping ahead to the final take is a HUGE time saver. And I'll be honest, the main thing that gets in my way when it's time to shoot a new video is thinking about how much time I'm going to have to spend afterwards on editing. It's a huge motivation crusher some weeks. Cutting that time down ups my enthusiasm for doing the part of this that I actually like: the filming. So thanks!
I've been using this visual audio wave form editing technique for about 40 years when recording voice overs for radio. A lot of times I don't even have to listen to it, I can edit it simply by looking at the sine wave display. In addition, if you can see the entire sine wave of the audio, which apparently you can't in Final Cut, make your cuts exactly where the sine crosses the 0db line (zoom "way" in so you can get it exact.) That will help a lot in preventing spurious digital clicks.
There’s alot of learnings for editings. It always take me hours or day for just one video editing.... But I’m so happy and proud for every videos I edited. Hehe
Scott Urbach It’s quite good. I’m going to start filming videos on my IPhone 6s. I wish I could get such phone, but I started saving money for Canon g7x mark mini ii
I just made a review using only voice over. I really want to get better at taking heads. I tried using a free teleprompter but I need more practice looking into the lenses/ not obviously reading off the screen. This was helpful.
I use the free version of Davinci Resolve. So far, it has done everything I need. About to start a course on Davinci in the next week, so my videos should have much better editing!
Wondering if I'm the only one that was imagining what's behind that curtain 😃. Great content! The crop in and out effect is something I'll have to try.
Thanks. So helpful, as always. The cropping in and out is a really great technique. It took me ages to really get the hang of it (and not sure I’m fully there yet), but used correctly this can make a huge difference. And thanks so much for the information about Flow. I didn’t know about this.
That is a great video that can help most of us! I just wanted to add that adding some background music in some parts will make Talking Heads Videos even more interesting and you can just use music to set a mood and emphasize something! Thank you Think Media for your help!
I love initially editing my videos using the waveform at first. It speeds up the process so much. I can see exactly where my awkward pauses are and don't even really need to listen to know that's where I need to cut the video.
Another idea that I've seen other RUclipsrs use, is to have a B camera at a different angle and then just cut to the other camera whenever you make a cut.
yeah i like that but most of my fav channels dont even bother with that. ive seen that shit work way more effectively in home made pornography where extra angles for detail are more important for the viewer
I use the same damn trick while editing that is using the audio track!!!!!!!!!!! Also learnt couple of good tips from this video PLEASE make more videos like these❤
Thanks for the video. I was using Corel But I found it clunky so I switched to DaVinci Resolve 16, it has taken me a bit to get used to it but I’m glad I made the swap.
Good video. I would have liked to see you demonstrate how you add bRoll and how it makes it flow Would also like to see you adding the crop on crop out

Kinemaster and filmora 9
Camtasia and Filmora9. DaVinci Resolve was too confusing, and I refuse to use Adobe and pay them in perpetuity.
Final Cut Pro X!

Tip #6: Edit from the end and work backwards to the beginning.. has saved me a ton of time!
How does that work? Not sure I follow you on this one. I'm new to this so learning what and where I can. Thanks
@@shebert29 I guess @Yellow Productions is suggesting this so that you would hit your best line first most of the time.
I'm doing that, too. Saves a lot of time.
for real? i dont get it

@@edernunez9752 I hope it helps you as much as it does me. Good luck with your editing!
Covering up cuts with B-Roll saves me at least 3 hours of time during both shooting and editing, EVERY TIME I make a video. I love it!
Anyone else working on their youtube channel? Keep providing value to your subscribers and you will grow. I wish you success!
Thanks for these great tips! 2 years later and still super helpful. Appreciate you!
I’m so grateful for these final cut tutorials. I just started my RUclips channel and I’m excited to try out the flow effect!

Yay, so awesome!! Yes that’ll help a lot!
I needed this video so much especially since my videos will be talking head vids due to the pandemic and restrictions to go outside. Thank you!
The crop-in-out is super helpful. Gotta try that out in my long choppy videos! Thanks for the wonderful tip!
Awesome tips! I'm editing my next video in Premiere Pro at the moment, and I'll definitely try all of these out. Anyone else editing a video right now?
Great George Michael shirt! Nice tips too! 👍
Super helpful!! Thanks Think Media for inspiring me to start my own RUclips channel! Going ALL IN & JUST PRESSING RECORD! 🤘
I absolutely Love all these topic specific videos that you Omar are putting out! Keep them coming!
Thanks man, will do!!
This is a great video. Been coming back to it a few times. Thank you!
I can't wait to try the crop in and crop out tip!
Awesome!
*AWESOME Video!* Make Video On Editing Of B-Rolls & Multiple Camera Setup For Unboxing With A-Roll. Your Videos Are AMAZING! 👍
The little things really add to the quality of the video. Thank you!
For now I’m using Videoleap with my iPhone. I’m a newbie and Was proud of myself that I am using at least one of these editing hacks. Thank you
Awesome!
Love this video - great tips for sure!!!
I love your vids! You have helped me to make my “at home” studio look way better on camera! Keep up the good work!
I currently use iMovie because it’s free but so far I love it!!
I think it was Omar that had a previous tip about editing “backwards” - since generally your last take is the one you want. Probably be easier by looking at wave forms. Thanks for putting this out Nolan! Great stuff. Hey
Was just about to comment this!! So much easier to edit that way!!
Thank you!! Yes different ways to edit, find what works best for you 👊🏻
that sounds super useful, thank you!
I totally needed this. Speeds up editing
Yes for sure!!

Editing is definitely one of the hardest parts of video production. I do workout videos and editing is harder than the workout itself, LOL.
Great tip to quickly find the good takes.
There’s alot of learnings for editings. It always take me hours or day for just one video editing.... But I’m so happy and proud for every videos I edited. Hehe
Super helpful, Nolan, thanks!
So awesome to see FCPX help videos 🙌🏻
I use Premiere Pro, the cropping effect saves so much time and makes look like a pro😅😅
Yup!!😆
Is that the similar effect to which is discussed here? Flow effect...
I'm not sure I fully understood the Cropping Effect that Nolan covered, nor if it is in Premiere Elements. I'll have to do more research.
Do you not find it takes hours to render a 20 video on Pr
Sorry a 20 minute video!
Am I the only person who doesn’t have a camera and films every video on an IPhone??
Nope. All iPhone over here.
@@TaitsTake same. And my subs didnt know it I'm pretty shure.
I have only just started my channel, but all video so far filmed on my iPhone 11 pro
Scott Urbach It’s quite good. I’m going to start filming videos on my IPhone 6s. I wish I could get such phone, but I started saving money for Canon g7x mark mini ii
Julia Carter 6S is fine. Still shoots 1080p. I would just make sure your lighting is as good as possible to make up for the lesser camera.
Yes pls do more videos 😍 on this 😊, thank you
informative 11mins on editing.
Thanks for the video I’m trying light works out
Thanks Nolan, I'll be using theses tips for my future videos 📹 😊
Awesome, keep crushing it!
I really needed this! Thank you!!
Very helpful video! Thank you for posting.
Thanks Nolan! I've been editing for awhile but never knew about the FLOW transition! Thank you for the cool tip :)
ABSOLUTELY needed this!! So helpful, thank you so much!
Great video and tips .. i already do most of this so im glad im heading towards the right direction 😃👍🏿🔥
Very good tutorial explaining everything in an easy to swallow format. Brilliantly informative.
Good! This is the video I was looking for yesterday!!!
Thanks for sharing. I like the flow transition. I'll try that in my next talking head video.
I just made a review using only voice over. I really want to get better at taking heads. I tried using a free teleprompter but I need more practice looking into the lenses/ not obviously reading off the screen. This was helpful.
thank you for putting examples, it was helpful
Another good tip for finding your good takes when editing, clap after a good take them look for the spike in the audio.
This was helpful!
Excellent tips, thanks Nolan!

Thanx so much dude. This was so informative.
Always love your tips! Super helpful.
Nice video bro....I use Filmora for editing :)
Brilliant!! thanks so much for this...just getting started but using Vegas Pro 19...cheers Andy
Not for my channel but it’s always good to watch.
This is exactly the kind of video I needed to watch! Most of my videos are going to be talking head ✌🏼 I use iMovie because it came with my Mac 🤷🏻♂️😅
That’s what I started with!
@@nolanmolt is there a better free alternative? Or shall I just stick with iMovie?
Wondering if I'm the only one that was imagining what's behind that curtain 😃. Great content! The crop in and out effect is something I'll have to try.
Cool video! Please make more of those :)
Thanks. So helpful, as always. The cropping in and out is a really great technique. It took me ages to really get the hang of it (and not sure I’m fully there yet), but used correctly this can make a huge difference. And thanks so much for the information about Flow. I didn’t know about this.
You're so goood I couldn't even tell or see certain edits! I just couldn't lol I was catching on to certain points after the fact if at all 😂😂😂
Enjoyable. I will research editing software
Nice :). Learned about the Flow transition :) cool ...
That is a great video that can help most of us! I just wanted to add that adding some background music in some parts will make Talking Heads Videos even more interesting and you can just use music to set a mood and emphasize something! Thank you Think Media for your help!
Heat!
Good stuff man! Thank you! I’m definitely going to try to crop in and out more often!
More great tips as usual. I have only just started my channel, and still struggling a bit with iMovie, but appreciate all of your advice. Thank you!
I've migrated from Movie Maker to Premiere Pro. Thank you for the wave file tip.
Thanks for sharing the tips. I have been using some of the tips. I am using movavi video suite 2020.

"It is my last take which is the best take" reminds me of you always find something in the last place you look for it. :)
I am shooting and editing all my videos only using my I phone x and I am loving it
Super helpful, thanks!
As a talking head, I find this very useful.
I am new in video editing and this is awesome! Thanks for all your advices 😁✅
Wow the crop in, crop out 🌟
I use DaVinci Resolve
