Video editors, what is the GOAT sound effect? 🤔 Mine has to be the vine boom ngl

@full_ronin It can change song to song, but it should be loud enough to have an emotion impact, but not too loud that it blocks out dialogue/commentary for instance. Usually I order the loudness like this : - Commentary 1st - SFX 2nd - Music 3rd

@TimDervish So at how much should i set music/tracks?

Quick reminder to Video Editors. I see lots of editors making audio balancing mistakes. Make sure you are setting the most important part of your video (Voice-overs, actors etc...) to -3dB.

This post got me: 7 video editing clients $1,000+ of revenue Brand recognition Let me explain how. When Among Us was the most popular game on YouTube there was a huge demand for video editors for all the new content. I positioned myself with a simple strategy to outdo all the other editors. Creating my own editing style that no other editor had done at the time I set myself out from other editors in the eyes of clients. I created animated characters to for each person playing to identify who they are and make talking scenes more interesting. Taking the most popular gameplay clips I fully edited and posted such content on my channel and amassed over 130K views. And since no one else could do the same type of editing I had an incredible amount of inbound asking for editing with this exact style. Don't copy styles. Instead re-invent and reimagine them to create something truly unique. That's what sells.

I re-edited Bleach with completely new sound effects. Let me show you how I did it. 🧵👇

How to edit your videos 2x faster 1. Standardize your workflow Work through your video stage by stage, cutting then visuals, then music, then sound effects. 2. Don't do wasteful visuals Crazy visual effects aren't always the answer. Sometimes the simpler idea can be 10x more effective. 3. Prepare your assets You should download assets before starting on the project, leave as little as possible to the last minute.

@snacks_money I know this point! I chose not to include "bath water" part because its just too long for the tweet. But I've essentially mentioned the exact same thing. Focus on the viewer experience always. And that can mean including shots you find boring, but the viewer doesn't.

Top 5 Video Editing lessons from Hiller-Smith 🧵

Hiller-Smith has been a huge inspiration for me when I started my editing career so please do follow him if you haven't already. Thanks for all the great knowledge over the years! :) If you found the thread useful please retweet and follow!

5. Don't overedit Don't make edits more complicated for the sake of it. Prioritise the viewer experience above all else. If that comes with a simple edit then you don't need to make anything flashy. This also lets you utilise your time more efficiently.

4. Pope in the pool Entertain your audience while providing context. Exposition doesn't have to be boring! This could mean throwing in comedy, action, or tension while providing context.

3. Match eye-lines cuts Keeping the cut between two shots at the same eye level allows for a smooth transition between scenes as well as avoiding extra viewer effort to watch the video.
