AI bots on youtube now?

Looks like they export the text as an alpha channel. The glow separates it from the number in the background. The fade in and vignetting on the 4 makes it look good. There’s no interaction of the glow on the 4 so you should be able to do it in 2D not 3D. What are you having trouble with specifically?

@@VideoLoadout the trouble is, to make the Number "4" effect Behind the Stranger Things text. Actually I don't understand that how to create the "4" Behind the text glowing and pulsing effect.

Export your text as quicktime 444 alpha channel. RGB + alphas setting on after effects and add whatever below it or just use the layer system. I don't understand because just have your text layer in front of 4. You using after effects?

@@VideoLoadout yes I use the After Effects, & thank you for your help ❤

@@user-bf3uu8tf1k Hopefully I helped a little. Good luck!

Blessed the St Benedictine crucifix in the Catholic Church. That’s more important than any video , happy to see this comment. I agree with you. God bless!

Yes, I’ll make time to put that in a future video. Are you a video editor or videographer?

@@VideoLoadout I am a video editor with about 4 years of experience! But not with the sales side😕

CHEERS! Wow that's so nice that literally made my day! That's super nice I hope you have a great day and enjoy future content from this channel! That's a classy move bro

@@VideoLoadout I sure will do thanks.

Edit and move clips thousands times a week, why not make it faster and better?

Why didnt u pin ur own message

Totally forgot, uploaded the video and started working. Clutch comment though! I appreciate it! Have a good one!

@@GabrielsUniverse glad you found the video helpful! Thanks for commenting 🍻

Happy to help. Yes, USA & UK have highest client budgets so that’s smart. If you communicate clearly, shouldn’t matter where you’re from. Good communication and quality = good client experience. If you want work not clients then you should reach out to marketing agencies, production companies, and freelancers with similar clients. Basically your portfolio should tell them you make quality of content and it won’t take long to train you to help them with their clients. If you want clients not just working for someone- you fix marketing problems not make videos - even though you do. Help a booming industry that uses ads like fashion, fitness, e commerce. Find a client dm or upwork. Don’t worry about getting paid too much now. But when your client has a success- you sell other clients on finding success as well or even better - similar success. Simiply- make ads for a fitness brand and offer to do the same for 50 others. Film a social media video to pin 📍 on ig for a clothing brand and offer the same to 50 others. For more money. Make a good website and make sure your business looks professional at first glance. That’s called inherent value (website with quality BTS and notable brands on website). Most important thing is to edit for others who have clients and make money or work on getting your own clients. Creativity should be improved but business is more important unfortunately 👍🏻 you got this !

@@VideoLoadout Omg! Am sorry I was busy a bit just dropped a like ASAP I could, Thank you so much for the reply am so lost Rn I can't express, as there was incident which made me come home and start editing again. I couldn't process it but this niche Idea is what's burning in my head and I'll do this! Can I ask one more question? Shall I reach out personally or cold mail/ cold call?

You can ask your question through a comment or email in my TH-cam bio. Happy to help. A lot of people are going through something similar so feel free to comment 🍻

@@VideoLoadout Thank you so much brother 🍻

Yes, I wanted talk more about leads but the video was too long. Client leads: If you’re not full time spend time everyday applying to full time jobs. Freelance. Instagram DMs. I’ve sent hundreds. Email - find emails on linked in and company website. Then reach out to other businesses in that field and share previous success. Facebook groups landed me my biggest client. Lot of cold outreach. People also found me on ig because the hashtags I used. If you’re early in career get client experience and marketing results by working on upwork. Reach out to marketing agencies and production companies offering editing services. This should be a good start

@@VideoLoadout thank you so much, will try these out.

Thank for the comment, happy to help. Don’t understand your question completely but I’ll share what advice I can. This raid 0 configured my book duo hard drive would be a good fit for weddings because of the size of the projects. You can edit on the drive while importing footage. Keep the my book duo plugged in as much as possible. Don’t mess with it. It is fast enough to edit off completely. Mirror your folders of footage and graphics on a backup drive that’s cheap. Backups are important for client work. What program do you edit with? Let me know if I didn’t answer your questions you can ask again. Tried my best to help.

In raid 0 both hard drives are being used and act as 1 hard drive in order to work faster.

🍻

Got you 🍻

You're welcome!

Thanks for watching!

Use a Raid 0 hard drive like the my book duo for editing projects like that which are over 2tb. It’s fast enough for 4K editing without proxies. If I have a small project like a graphics heavy ig commercial reel I can edit it on my pc’s internal SSD then offload the footage to clear up space when done. But for 95% of projects I’m just editing off of my book duo

Thank you so much! And if you have any video topics you might want covered- let me know! That’d be helpful.

Of course, what animations specifically? After effects and premiere for programs. Retention animations at videoloadout.com for animation and graphics. After effects for text animations.

@@VideoLoadout Thank you so very much. I’m definitely going to look into that.

Glad I could help :)

I’m standing on bidness lol thanks for the comment tho

@@VideoLoadout No problem, at the end of the day the program is just a tool, with good skills you can make great editing on every program.

@@jannik244 Agreed! If I edited different types of videos I might choose a different program. Have a good one!

You got it! 🍻 thanks for the comment! Any topics you would like me to make a video about?

How to edit long form videos like Ali Abdaal@@VideoLoadout

@@weeklymindset Good idea. I agree!

This comment made my day, cheers 🍻 let me know if you have any video topic ideas for the future on this channel

It’s the program I and my collaborators use to run production companies with large business clients so it hasn’t been a factor for me. But for personal use I recommend Black Friday sale or buying a student email for discount ;) If the ROI isn’t worth it for personal use you can always use whatever fits your needs best. I just come from the business side. Thanks for the comment 🍻

Thanks for the 20 points of input! I honestly don't agree with all of them but I do see a lot of problems that tick me off about premiere in here as well that I do agree with. For other editors picking a software, can you let us know what type of projects you edit? Cheers

@@VideoLoadout Anything that comes my way ... i.imgur.com/sFMVJkd.jpg

@@VideoLoadout So you removed my response that provided evidence to answer your question because it was a picture link?

@robainscough I did not remove any comments feel free to comment any opinions you have. can you even leave pictures in comments though?

This comment still here my man

Hey man, what did you send?

Free copy, I sent it to the email you have on TH-cam@@VideoLoadout

Well said I agree 100% try out things on your own and that will get you ready to make better client work. 🎥🍻

Cheers! I definitely will focus on my thumbnails!

Made my day thanks! Let me know if you have any editing topics you’d want to see a video of 👍🏻

Enjoy Final Cut

@@VideoLoadout That's for newbies, all your arguments don't make sense, you didn't say anything about Premier outperforming Resolve, which is what I use and I have plenty of work. I guess you're upset, that means no free Big Mac's for me.

Love the input. I like davinci for solo filmmakers and maybe even creators. I don’t see davinci on many job postings yet unfortunately. When current davinci editors start their own companies and hire then things might change. Premiere has a “productions” where multiple projects are under a production. And when multiple editors edit off a server working on those projects is very necessary. Davinci has an ability to do that but there’s not much education on it. Once theres more education on davinci things may change. But rn industry standard is a good place to start to get a job. If you’re a solo filmmaker though. You may not have to deal with premiere im starting to think. Thanks for the comment this will be helpful to editors🍻

Agree, I moved to DaVinci Resolve a year ago and my workflow and performance and results are significantly better ... I actually get time to do other things in life now rather that beat myself with Adobe Pr/Ae problems and work arounds

Davinci is an unintuitive software...

I gave up on Adobe in 2012. I was literally about to lock the timeline on a project and - for whatever reason - PPro crashed on opening. I had a kind client. I switched to VEGAS for stability - it was stable and easy to learn. It was okay but growing into a shop with more collaborators proved it's fatal flaw. We switched to Resolve in 2017 and dear sweet black baby Jesus what an utter revelation and revolution that was. Now our shop is all BMD, hardware and software. The pipeline is reliable, fast, and really efficient. We drop raw footage into Resolve BMD colour managed timeline and our grading is suddenly 90% done WITH correct colours. We do better work because now we have more time. Fairlight Audio in resolve is accurate ...the external hardware makes it a dream. Unironically, the only time we have production delays and problems these day, is if we have to round trip part of a project to another shop and they use PPro/AE. There's always some issue.

Good points! Did you switch then? Are you editing content or more film like videos?

@@VideoLoadout i just started 2 months before. After using both the software i prefer Premier pro. For colour grading Davinci there is no competition

Cheers for the comment! Any TH-camrs you like or editing topics in mind? (I ran out of TH-cam video topics lol)

🪿

Thank you so much! I use video topic ideas from my subscribers so if you have any editing topics you want me to cover then please let me know! Have a good day!

This is great input! Are you a solo filmmaker/freelancer? Or freelance editor? In the video I wanted to help people choose and stick to a program they can get work with but not everybody works with a team. I probably would suggest davinci for a lot of solo filmmakers. Let me know what you think, cheers

Hi, thanks for answering! I am a freelance editor and I still like the design/UI of Premiere but I am booked for a documentary series at the moment which lasts for about 3 months and Premiere crashed all the time or has massive timeline lagging and a complete unreliable Proxy workflow. I used Premiere for about 12 years now but if you have to justify in front of a client why the software always crashes or you have bugs in the playouts, you have to think of an alternative before you destroy your own reputation. I wanted to stick to Premiere for a long time, but I can't afford it letting me down so Resolve came in - and man! I am really in love. (You can also do good team work with it). The switch is not too hard for a Premiere user and I will recommend Resolve to every editor I know. I think it's best to be fluent in both programs. Cheers! Phil @@VideoLoadout

Hi! Thanks for your answer. I am a freelance editor and I was using Premiere for over 12 years now. I am in a documentation project with 4 episodes right now (tight deadlines!) and Premiere is bugging all the time (like not playing the timeline without hiccups while the clients are there for a presentation) and export errors etc. I can't afford this anymore and I'm done with it. I like the UI design of Premiere but it's so unstable. I switched to Resolve since a week and I love it. It's not such a difficult switch for a Premiere user and I only can recommend this program to all editors. It's just amazing. And you can also do co-working with other editors. It's probably best to get more jobs to be fluent both in Premiere and Resolve, but I just fall for Resolve! Greets Phil@@VideoLoadout

Agreed. If I didn't work with a team and any program was available I might work with Davinci on Passion projects that didn't need text based editing or vertical video features

Premiere Pro best editing program for content and commercials? Davinci Resolve good for solo filmmakers? CapCut and and Final Cut Pro for beginner editors?

Thank you for the sub and the comment! Do you post videos on TH-cam or IG/TikTok? More tips coming soon!

@@VideoLoadout thinking about making educational videos here on youtube, sure I don't them to be boring hhh

You can do it! Upcoming videos revolve around that topic. 2024 is the year to do it!
