Video editors don’t get enough credit for their amazing work!!
My daughter is a professional film editor in New York. A good editor can make a great actor even better and talk a director out keeping in a scene the director has fallen in love with that is better left out. Starts with being honest and direct with objectivity the director may have lost by the time editing begins. “I’m sorry, I have kill your love child …”
Video editing is freaking hard... Only editors know
It true
Aama da sunni
Yep!
Only when you are using a bad pc
So true as I have discovered.
where was this all of my life??? this is such an incredible in depth explanation - i've tried making fan trailers for stuff to push the boundaries of amv style videos but always felt like i was missing something, like there was something i didn't fully understand, and this really really opened my eyes, thank you so much thank you this is AMAZING
Very glad you found us and the tutorial was so helpful!! 👍✂️🎞
What app did you use?
Two thumbs up. The way you speak, explain, orchestrate, teach makes me raise the hat for you. If it's in my hands, I will never hesitate to honor your Excellency an OSCAR.
Thank you so, so much Professor.
This video motivates me. I am obviously no trailer editor, but this video alone has taught me things I never thought of until now. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed, make sure you check out our latest video series 'What Drives the Cut' ruclips.net/video/MP1ezQ9ahXw/видео.html
Speaking my language. I've been cutting trailers/promos for 22 years, almost all with one of those companies off the top :) There are so many layers to a good trailer but you definitely hit the overview nicely. The story beats are critical... and they have to be easily-digested, assuming someone has no clue what the IP is.
This is the world.
Here is the protagonist.
This is what they want.
Oh wait...
This is what is stopping them.
(Bass hit, stopdown) -- Antagonist states their purpose
(Reverse into...)
Come on the journey see if they can overcome.
Build. Stopdown.
Moment to trigger another action sequence.
Blam blam blam.
Usually one final line.
Call to action.
You pass all of that out and those stopdown moments are so valuable because it really refocuses the audience. Beginning trailer editors sometimes just go rapid fire where it's like a drum solo on top of a guitar solo and nothing is taking the lead.
Sound design is soooo critical. It drives those moments and the pacing, as well as the music. I rarely stick with the same piece of music for a trailer, I try to switch for every act, unless it's some licensed track that the bosses want used.
It's super fun leading different parts take the lead... a VO coming forward, letting music play for a some beats, sound design to carve out those changes.
Oh, also... if you do a stutter cut... do at least three so it doesn't look like a mistake. Or, if it's just a two cut moment, the sound design has to be obvious so the audience knows it was intentional.
It really is like a big musical composition of so many different moving parts.
Very well-put and laid out! Most trailers are definitely a musical composition first with a story attached second. Many of the best trailer editors tend to have some sort of musical background or training.
How long would you typically take to edit a trailer?
@@terurehepaki3394 It totally depends on the client's notes but I can sometimes get a cut together in a week but usually the approval can take 1-3 months. One took a year, as the project kept getting pushed, so they tweaked along the way.
I usually watch the film, then rewatch and do two select reels; bytes and b-roll. I'll find 'tentpole' moments to set up the three acts. I'll do a loose cut with bytes filled-in... then I'll really get into the music. With the music, I mark the changes, like the verses, stops, bridge, etc. I start with the music and then it's a back and forth with what drives it -- the bytes or the music coming forward sometimes. It's definitely a lot of back and forth before I like it, then off to the client.
@@ronineditor9920 Thank you for taking the time to reply in detail, I very much apprichaited that insight.
So you are the guy ruining movies for us. Thanks, for showing the whole fucking movie in a span of two minutes, robbing us of the fun going to the cinema. :/
Thanks so much for helping the beginners and making it free 🥺🙏🏼
oh man, you are a lifesaver!
Thanks for the knowledge
Every Job requires a framework to it, and editing has its own framework, it is creative yet it is magic.
As someone who wants to specialize in editing trailers, this helped a lot! I did a whole four years to get my degree in editing and there were no classes focused on TRAILERS. The only thing I’ve done to really hone this craft is making fan-trailers as well as making trailers for my own films and my friends films. It was a great film program but trailer editing specifically was never really focused on: just making the principal film. Thank you so much for this and I hope I can find more resources for editing trailers! :)

Hey guys & gals! Question time --- What type of editor are you? Have you ever tried cutting a trailer? How'd it turn out?
I haven’t made a trailer yet, but I have made a few music videos. I know that music videos and trailers are not the same thing, and I am far from becoming a professional, but these are fan music videos. I used to make these things called GMV’s (Gaming Music Videos) for a game I played a few years ago. In these GMV’s I’d sometimes have to find a way to squeeze together 2 seasons of a story line into just four minutes or less without the story being too jumpy to understand. Like I said, I made those a couple years ago so they aren’t great, but with the skills I’ve learned from them (and from these videos) I hope to make some trailers soon.

I Love Film Editing Pro~
Great to have you here. Make sure you are subscribed :)
HI!! U guys are a legit inspiration. Keep up the good work !! :))
Thanks so much! We'll keep it coming :)
This is why I love this industry. There's not one set career objective when going into this field. I've found success in indie short films, live event broadcast, studio design, and purely post-pro. This industry captivates those who want to create and who are dedicated to the craft. "network network network" is a big part of it (film students know what I'm talking about), but creativity and drive are other factors that can propel you into the next tier. People care about what you make, not the fake face you put on. Be real, make good shit. This industry is both cutthroat, but also fulfilling.
True and wise words - well put!
*Film Editing Pro* This is very cool, even from a composer/music producer point of view!

Wow this could be useful
I’m so hooked guys!!! I do wedding and special projects on the side; apart from my financial full time job. I’ve always wanted to score for film and TV and I want to start doing short films. My wife is a writer and she's working on a short script. But wow your presentation is excellent and I had to watched all three videos almost 5+ time more. I would love to apply what you are teaching to the short...I am so pump by your presentation and I want to learn more...I use premier pro to edit. how would the classes work?
This was such an awesome lesson, thank you so much for this!
I personally think some people in hollywood need to re-hear this haha!
I don't know how many times i'd be in the theater and the previews come on, some being genuinely entising and intrigue me in the story to actually want to watch. Then there's the ones where it literally just wraps up the entirety of the story into the trailer... like, ok great, I know the plot, antagonist, issue at hand, hero, you asked "will he make it?!" then show a happy ending shot of him making it / winning. that's frustrating to me, especially when i can't look away for if i am actually interested.
Thanks Jazzi. Check out out full trailer editing course. If you liked this video, you'll love the full course.
