Hello This is very helpful but I would like to see more info regarding voiceovers and how you can edit and replace a voiceover for a particular scene. Thank you!

Thank you so much. I wish you had said at the very beginning while selecting the audio file the only types of audio files that Doodly supports. Besides that everything else is great. Thank you so much.
Hi Florence, Thank you for the suggestion. This was one of the first tutorials I put out (my 3rd I think) and I didn't realize that I forgot to put in what type of files types Doodly supports. Doh! It supports only .mp3 files for importing audio. Here are the rest of our tutorials: th-cam.com/video/fvYa2AJNq-U/w-d-xo.html
"This free video tutorial took over 100 hours to create." The final, very polished and high quality product by the way, is 7 minutes and change. That's like 15 hours per minute! Ah, how often my clients underestimate or are surprised at the time to takes to build something for them.
Thank you. Yeah, it takes so long to build these. I have one coming out soon that I've been working on for four months, 16 to 20 hours a day on the weekends and around 4 to 5 hours a day during the week when I'm not passed out from working a full day with clients. It should be the best one I've put out thus far.
You're very welcome. Check out the other tutorials on this channel as there is a lot of information in those videos as well. All Doodly Animation Tutorials: th-cam.com/play/PLJj4MsjnRkyk7xog3_Dg32rx1WEAEX9kh.html
Great video. I've been frustrated at no "slice" option to take a middle section of audio out of a voice-over. Can I created two voice-over tracks, just like creating two audio tracks? Then just edit from the end of one and the beginning of the second to remove the undesired section of that voice-over? I'm going to try. Thanks.
Do yourself a favor and use Audacity or some other tool to edit the Audio and then import it into Doodly. Doodly is not an audio editing or video editing suite. It is a reveal program first and foremost which means not expecting it to meet the basic tools that you would see in a full editing suite program. Can you edit audio in Doodly? Very basically. You can hover your mouse over the line at the end of the audio where your cursor changes into a left and right arrow and then click your left mouse button down and drag the audio line over to the left. THAT is how you slice or crop the audio in Doodly. It is not ideal and definitely not easier than using a tool like Adobe Audition or Audacity.
@@SoloBoss That works great if you know exactly what you want and need no changes. Often I will want to shorten or remove a section. A simple slice/split button would really make a huge difference in Doodly. I hope someone is reading and takes the suggestion seriously.
@@DougeeDJ Yes, it would be nice but Doodly is a simple reveal program and not a video or audio editor so I don't see that as being an addon. I will settle for the bugs to be worked out and I would be happy.
Confusing, if your audio track is longer than the scene(s), then squashing the audio to suit the scene length in my mind would compress the sound, I don't understand how that works.
Doodly isn't that sophisticated. It doesn't compress the audio while keeping the entire track, it cuts it off. Then use the fade out option so it properly fades the audio at the end.
Hi Wayne and the crew just wanted to say the common beginner mistakes was a good video but felt like too much information in one go for me! However I have a bit of an headache today to be fair but think I would have cut this into smaller sections and made it around 3 parts possibly as people don't seem to take too much info in one go. Still think it was worth doing though but may have to watch again when I feel better!
Hi Tony! Thanks for the tip. Yeah, although we are currently talking back and forth on the Working with Audio video tutorial, let me provide a link to anyone reading this conversation to the correct video. Common Beginner Mistakes: th-cam.com/video/fvYa2AJNq-U/w-d-xo.html When I created that video I made it with common beginner mistakes on purpose. The thought process there was to get people engaged and let them point out how I have common beginner mistakes in my own video. That experiment kind of backfired. I would consider the video a success because it has helped a lot of people and it has engaged people but it makes the video so fast that it will make your head spin... ha ha ha ha ha ha So I won't be doing that again in another video. LOL Now, interestingly enough, I have been doing some testing and research and there are two thought processes to your statement of breaking it up into more videos. 1. Viewers tend not to go through the entire series of videos. When you make a video series, I see the first video with a lot of views and the next one with less and so on and so on. 2. When you have a lengthy video, we can break it up into chapters and the viewer can pause the video and bookmark it for later and come back to it if they need it. 3. However, lengthy videos tend to scare the viewer away. They see a super long video and say, nope goodbye so this is where breaking the video up into segmented series works. 4. Reviewing the video analytics, I typically see about 1/3 of the video watched regardless of the length of the video. If the video is 4 minutes, I see an average watch time of 1.5 minutes. If the video is 15 minutes, I see an average watch time of 5 minutes. If the video is 45 minutes, I see an average watch time of 15 minutes. These numbers are severely skewed by the chapters I create because TH-cam counts the chapters as a view so when people come back and click on a chapter to watch it again and only watch 45 seconds of the video it then affects your overall watched time average negatively so you can only take those statistics with a grain of salt and as a guideline. This next video series I have coming out will test this exact concept in detail with how I am creating and releasing it.
Thanks for your really helpful tutorials. When you add the fade out to the track, should you be able to hear the music fading when you watch on preview? The video I've just created still seems to have the music end abruptly even though I've used the fade out option and dragged into several seconds back along the music timeline. I'm downloading it now so not sure whether the final version will sound ok.
Yes when you add the Fade Out track, hover your mouse over the edge and drag it to the left to be able to make it fade out longer. You should be able to use the Show preview button and hear your music fade out as well before you export.
@@SoloBoss Thank you. The final version that was downloaded did fade out well but for some reason the fade out can't be heard in the preview. Perhaps it's just one of those weird glitches!
@@sallycotonbusinesscoaching3208 I just noticed that with one of my videos. Another big in the software. I was looking at an older creation where the fade out was working in the show preview and now it is not. I am too busy to document it and send it in to Bryxen developers.
