I know how to edit show me
what's up guys so let's say you've just taken a trip or you've got a bunch of
footage and you've never edited a video before where do you get started well I'm
gonna give you a quick crash course on editing we're gonna go over these ten
basic editing topics and by the end of it you'll have learned the most basic
fundamentals and editing to get you started on your first project now I'm
useful Mura because it's my go-to software but these techniques I share
with you are universal so you can use them on most other software's if you do
decide you want to use for Mora then you can try it free by clicking on the link
here or in the description box below so to start this video off I'm going to
show you a little sample of a travel video that I put together
there are so many things that you can create for video now I would describe my
video as a travel and montage film now earlier I mentioned how the editing
techniques in this video are universal to most software out there they're also
universal to all types of film genres such as narrative music videos
documentaries and much more so don't worry if you're not making a travel film
now let's take a look at film or
when you open filmora a window will pop up here you can pick the aspect ratio in
the mode most modern-day cameras and phones film video and sixteen by nine
widescreen so I'll select that for this tutorial we will be using the full
feature mode and Tamura in this mode you can have total control of your edit and
full access of the features in femoral now I'll give you a quick tour of the
film or program the top left of filmora is where your media file browser is this
is where you can import and store your files to the right of this window is the
preview screen where you can preview files in your media browser and where
you view your work in the timeline this long portion on the bottom is called the
timeline this is where your clips will be once you start editing them the icons
above your timeline are your editing tools you will use these tools to edit
your footage in the timeline lastly the icons above the editing tools
are links to your media music text transitions and more features that come
with the program now since you know how to use filmora let's get started the
first thing I do when starting your video is import my video files there's
new video files to edit your video after you've opened filmora
the first thing you'll do is import your media to do that press the import media
icon find your clips select them then press load all your clips will then
appear in the same window as the import media icon for my travel video I want my
first clip to be visually interesting and distinctly Japanese I suggest when
you're adding your videos that the first few clips be interesting and set the
tone and theme for your video that's why I chose the samurai shot but it's really
up to you now let's get that first clip of yours in the timeline take the clip
you want in your video and drag it to the timeline if you want to shorten or
lengthen the clip you can do so by dragging either the right or left side
of the clip in the timeline there is also the split tool to use the split
tool first find where you want the clip to start and then do a split then find
the spot where you want the clip to and do another split then delete the
parts you don't want once you start adding clips to your timeline you love
cuts now let's start going over the most basic technique in editing
cuts the first cut I want to talk about is the match cut the match cut is
similar to the standard cut which is just a regular cut but what makes it
different is when one shot is cut to another and match by the action same
shape or subject matter like this now what I've done to this shot is cut on
action a cut that happens on the middle of the action this cut is often
constructed from two Clips not the same clip doing a cut on action will make
cuts appear smoother or faster also a cut on action can be applied to any
level of action even for something as simple as snapping now I'm going to add
a little more to the timeline and use standard cut on action and match cuts
see you in five seconds
all right so that just about covers cutting now I do have to mention that
there are many more cuts such as the cross cut that aren't in this video so
as I watch more of this video I'm getting kind of tired of all these
standard cuts and I feel like I can add more to this video so to liven it up
let's explore Fillmore's effects and tools transitions are usually used to
change the look of a cut however I like to have a reason why I use them such as
having a more serene feeling between cuts
I remember this for us being very peaceful and right after I went to the
Inari shrine I felt a standard cut would be too abrupt sort of smoothing it out I
added a transition called a dissolve to view the transitions click the icon that
has two arrows pointing away from each other to add a transition to your
sequence you can either drag it between two clips or put the scrubber in between
two Clips then click the plus sign on your desired transition easy right now
they cut between the two shots dissolve into each other which is more pleasing
now for this Skateboarding clip I want to do something cool I only want a
certain moment of this clip to be in slow motion this is where the split tool
in combination when the speed control function comes in first I'm going to
find the spot where I want the clip to be in slow motion I'll then make a split
and leave that part as is for now for the other part of the clip I just split
I will change the speed by using the edit tool in the speed section use the
sliding bar to change the speed by making either slower or faster in my
case I filmed in slow motion so I will speed it up
sometimes I'll cut two clips that have a similar visual aesthetic right after one
another as it eases us into the next shot like this well you may not have
noticed is that I actually used an overlay to smooth out cut the original
footage didn't really cut as well as I'd liked so instead of using a transition I
added an overlay effect to give it a more smooth cut to add an overlay select
the overlays icon which is located under the media window click on any of them
and you can preview it once you find one you like press the plus icon to add it
to your timeline I do want to mention the overlays aren't only for
transitioning between two cuts they're actually meant for being put on top of
your footage and giving them a little more Flair on my trip the food tasted so
heavenly but the raw footage just didn't do it justice so when I feel like the
raw footage could look even better I take a journey through the filters sort
of make the food look more heavenly I want you to find a nice glow filter to
add to my footage the filters are located to the left of the overlays
click on any of them to preview just make sure the scrubber is on the clip
you want to preview to apply to my edit I'll press the good old plus sign
filters can easily add drama change the tone of the shot or stylize your image
now if you're wondering the difference between a filter and an overlay well a
filter generally manipulates your footage like the color
the contrast exposure and overall image whereas an overlay simply goes on top of
your footage
this is my favorite part of editing adding music they say that audio and
sound make up 50% of a video luckily for me for more it comes with the library of
music to see the music library select the music icon you can preview song it's
by clicking them and then pressing play in the preview window to add a song just
click the plus sign and it will be added to your timeline we're all humans and
sometimes we make mistakes on occasion I've set my camera to the wrong white
balance setting which results in the color of my foot is just not looking
right luckily I can use the color correction tool to fix my mistake now
color correction is when you correct the brightness the darkness the color
temperature or saturation of your footage and it generally comes at the
last part of the process when you're happy with your edit notice how the shot
has a blue tint to it this is because I had my camera's white balance set
incorrectly my camera was set for indoor lighting when it's supposed to be set
for outdoor lighting if the white balance was set correctly for outdoor
lighting it would look warmer to fix the color of this clip I'm going to use the
advanced color tuning tool when selected a window will pop up in this window you
can use presets or adjust the color on your own on the left side of this window
are the tools and presets you can use and on the right is where you can
preview the changes to the clip you have made the changes you make in this window
will only be applied to the clip you select not the entire timeline to adjust
the color on this clip I'm going to use the white balance slider since the
temperature of this video is a little cold and blue looking I'll shift the
temperature bar more towards the orange section to make it warmer I just want to
correct the footage to look less blue so I won't have to go too far
also when correcting the color of a clip my rule of thumb is to make the whites
look white if there is no white in the clip try to find where it's really
bright and adjust until it's white like the fur of this monkey even though I
only fix the white balance in my clip you can do a lot more with the advance
color tuning tool you can apply Luntz use presets just exposure add a vignette
and get more out of color correcting
adding text is a way to make a clear statement of what your video is about
but for me personally I think keeping it short is the key to add a title and
femaura click the text credit icon let's pick this one and to add it to your
timeline click the plus sign to edit the title double-click it in the timeline
and the title inspector will pop up in the inspector window you can select
which text you want to change by double clicking since I traveled to Japan this
year I'll keep it simple and title in Japan for the subtext I'll put the year
which is 2017 once you're happy with it it's time to export it on the very right
of the forum or effects icons is the export button click the button and a
window will pop up in this window you can name your video select the
resolution and choose where will save to for file format I usually choose mp4 as
it's the best codec for uploading to YouTube once you're ready click export
and your video will start exporting as you can see Filmore has a bunch of great
features and are very easy to do I have to say we just scraped the surface of
editing concepts and there are a lot more tools to explore tomorrow hope you
learn something and that this tutorial helps you get started on editing you
