    This man still has the most underrated channel on YT. The quality and feel of every video is supreme.

      Definitely! The “TH-cam is spreading a filmmaking disease” popped up on my recommended videos a few weeks ago, I must have watched it at least 10 times, then I started going back through his other videos.

    Sound Design is kind of the sneaky most fun part of filmmaking. Its alot of trial and error, and when it finally works it feels like you just solved a puzzle. Very satisfying.

    I knew, the importance of sound design.
    I’ve heard about it before.
    Not just slapping a BGM and sound effects here and there, but, with “multiple layers of sounds”, to create the “depth”.
    Yet, I often forget, quickly finish the edit, think it’s okay, and upload.
    Then, the following day, this video shows up while eating my lunch, and now I know I forgot to do some important thing.
    REALLY appreciate you taking time to make videos like this.

    Thanks you for this! I got my first short in a festival, and I watched and really took this to heart before submitting it and focused on the sound design, and I won a noteworthy award at the festival / had someone specifically comment on the quality of the sound design.

    I’d love to see a behind the scenes video on the stopped Newton’s Cradle and the Floating Todo List (that one really has me scratching my head)…and to know how much work went into lighting those shots. Think this short might be my new favorite among your stuff!

    I recently submitted a short film to Sundance at only 16 years old and I didn’t want to get copyrighted and disqualified. So I decided to make my own music to put in my short film. This video was very helpful and will save me a lot of time when It comes to making the music.

    Fantastic. I've just started multiplying/layering sfx on videos, and considering sound design. Recently added a "wall of chaos" to a scene of realisation.

    Thank you for this video! I just finished my fist short film and when I got to post production I realized I had no idea of what to do with the sound. It was filmed with a phone and not in the best locations so it really lacked the quality needed to make the ambiance. I wish I had seen this video sooner because if I knew how to work with sound it would have made the film much better.
    Thanks for the lesson! It was very clear and helpful.

    Great video. Would you maybe be able to make a video about how when you're both the director and editor of your short film, how to try and give yourself some distance and not get too one-minded when working on it?

    This is like what I did for the "movie" Scene in A Gummy Bears Life. A woman screaming, two gun sounds, and a dinosaur roar make a good movie you never see that I never heard while filming, but faked watching.

    @jackielearnsandteaches ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey there! Great video! I have a couple of questions.
    I love making videos, but I’m working with a very low budget and a very old computer. Right now, the best that I’ve got is iMovie on a Mac laptop, and the computer lags a lot while I’m editing, which makes it very difficult to time the music with the moments in the video. Do you have any suggestions about minimum performance requirements for a computer that can do video editing? Or for software that will perform better than iMovie and have more options, but not be prohibitively expensive?
    Thank you for making great content! 💜

    • @StandardStoryCo
      @StandardStoryCo  ปีที่แล้ว

      DaVinci Resolve is a free editing program that can do everything you'd ever need to do. If you're computer can't handle your footage, look up a youtube tutorial on how to use proxies in Resolve, then your project will run much smoother. Good luck!
