Thou shall save and keep a backup
And do it everyday.
I've spent hours upon hours trying to decide the best way to go about this. I make 6-12min long youtube videos, and trying to decide between just paying for cloud storage as a backup for everything, or invest in external hard drives. But external hard drives are not reliable indefinitely so I would need to buy 2 of them to do a double back up. Cloud storage vs Double External hard drive??? What's your thoughts?! I can't come to a decision lol
@@AdrianLoganLive both
...and thou shalt not keep both in the same bag when travelling :(
...and, and, AND...thou shalt rehearse RESTORING from backup.
This is actually some of the best editing I've seen in an educational video. You turned a phone interview into an engaging, concise lesson. Beautiful demonstration of the topic!
same thought :)
I know right!?!?!

and I am subscribed to your channel I hope I learn do create some images thru blender with your guidance
I made the donut and the chair
Audio is often so underrated, especially with unexperienced filmmakers. On set and in post. Not only don't people understand the concept of shutting the f up for a minute when recording room tone, but also that it is one of the things that are best when unnoticed.
Quick story to illustrate how big audio can be: When I was a film student, ages ago, one of our projects was to edit a fight scene from the old TV show Gunsmoke. This is the early 90s, pre-digital, so we were editing film on Steenbecks. Most of the edits came out alike, except mine. I used shots because they looked great, but some had bad recorded audio. One had a very loud bang when an actor fell into part of the set. So I worked with the audio track and fixed it. For that one shot I chopped out an impact sound from a different take and spliced it in. It let me use these great shots, and made my edit stand out from the rest. By the time I was done, my audio tape looked like it had been put through a shredder and been reassembled, but it sounded smooth. That decision saved my edit and got me a good grade on it.
...and for some strange reason, I still have the reels almost 30 years later.
I’ve been a feature film editor for 25 years and I agree completely with these seven rules
I'm so guilty of not watching my footage before I begin. I shot the music video, so I figured I just would know what I want. But honestly, I've backed myself into corners so many times and since all my clips are synced to music, I've had to start all the way over. I'm glad I watched this. Also, nice to meet you
11 minutes felt like an hour. So much valuable knowledge. Thank you! I really enjoyed this.
As an Emmy nominated editor and having spent 50 years in the Network TV trenches..from Ampex quads, CMX, Avid, DaVinci and the Edit Droid etc. This little instructional clip was brilliant and right on the money. Thanks for your input Vashi..I'm sure all the new comers to this important and critical cinematic art form known as "Editing", will find this extremely helpful. So with all that being said...I just had to drop this: TOP TEN LIES EDITORS TELL THEIR PRODUCERS: 10. It's just a preview glitch 9. It's out of the safe area, you'll never see that on the air 8. It won't really look like that 7. I'll fill out the paperwork tomorrow 6. Why no, I don't mind working on Saturday 5. Oh, don't go by THAT monitor 4. It works better as a cut! 3. That glitch is on the source tape 2. I?ll have all your changes done by the end of the day 1. No, I agree. It?s much better that way.
This short clip has actually made me appreciate film again. Haven't really watched films for a couple of years (college eating up all my energy resources), and this has given me a strong desire to dig some of my old favourites out. This has given me an appreciation for what these crews are able to do.
After 6 months, I rewatched it 2nd time today just to compare what I learnt in these past 6 months. Thank you, brother, for always spreading knowledge.
Glad it was helpful!
@@ThisGuyEdits always sir always, thank you again.
I NEED the summary screenshot as a poster and stick it on the wall opposite to my editing office door. So every morning when I walk in, it's the first thing I see. Thank you SOOO much for your time and this valuable video.
I'm learning how to edit and this motivates me so much every time. For me it's the highest form of creativity because there is no right or wrong. I have a lot of work in front of me but I'll get there :) Thanks for this awesome video!
Well, there can be "better" and "worse" when the goal of the director is well understood.
Which software/app do you edit with
What a beautifully made video this is! The edits, the interview snippets, the films included for illustration's sake--bravo! You are a filmmaker, sir. And I am your newest subscriber.
Great video! Always so insightful to hear from the real pro's - tips like that audio x-fade were super useful. That attention detail is such a testament to the editing process - a million tiny acts that create a wonder. Great job, thank you for creating this.
This video is awesome. Ive been in a funk with getting the motivation to edit. This really helped me realize how complex editing actually is and its normal to be a little overwhelmed at times.
I think you searched the comments section looking for these: The 7 Laws of Film Editing 1. THOU SHALT watch every frame of raw footage at least twice, the start. (1st time to familiarize, then 2nd time to write notes.) 2. THOU SHALT nurture the relationship with the director. 3. THOU SHALT find any shot instantly. Organization is paramount. 4. THOU SHALT factor extra time for renders, exports, errors & crashes. 5. THOU SHALT attempt edits that shouldn't work. You'll be surprised. 6. THOU SHALT spend more time on audio. It's the glue of your edit. 7. THOU SHALT cut for the scene, but always in the context of the whole film. (Macro on a Micro view of the film the whole time)
Vashi has an amazing blog and did several great interviews on podcasts. Definitely worth the deep dive.
This is great, Sven! Thanks for making this!
Great essay. One can almost derive the "top 5 editor's character traits" :) Love your work. Keep at it!
Adore this, being able to see the thousands of images at a glance.
Excellent tips!! thanks for sharing!
this video is neatly edited! Amazing info, thank you for creating this!
Fun Fact: Vashi came to speak at my college about being a video editor and in my opinion. His panel alone was worth the entire price of tuition our family has been paying for the school. He had so much knowledge on the subject and every word he said was one I felt I needed to hear.
Holy crap the editing on this video is phenomenal!
That middle screen devoted to the timeline made me sweat in a good way. Great content as always.
Always insane high end content , unbelievable to be found on KZhead!
This will help me a lot in my job, even if I'm a sound designer and not a video editor. Thank you
I never thought I'd be loving editing...but I am!
Bro this is amazing. One of the best film related tutorials Ive seen
Absolutely love this video, Enjoyed sooooo much, Thank You. It really is a passion that many won't get... But yet, So many have it in them! Stay focused!
This was absolutely terrific. Thank you.
WOW.. I THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY FOR CHECKING EVERY FRSME... SO INSPIRING, AND MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW... YOU DO A DISSERVICE TO THE FILM BY JUMPING RIGHT IN, AND EDITING YOURSELF INTO A CORNER... GENIUS..
Fantastic work. 👏👏👏
This was probably the most important thing I’ve ever learned for ever. More people need to watch this. Thank you guys for this!
Absolutely!
I guess I'm buying! Excellent advice that requires time and thought BUT I can see now it can help save time and preserve flow in editing / creating. Thanks !
This video is a pure editing pleasure itself!
I knew all this stuff, but have never seen it so well presented. Outstanding info here.
Genuis. Excellent advice and viewing
these were super helpful thank you ! Definitely took some notes ... always something to learn !
This was wonderful! Definitely picked up on some helpful tips. Thank you!
As always, a free masterclass!
Ugh, so inspiring. I may just be editing KZhead videos but I want them to be the best they can be! Learn all the things!!
I loved this video! Just subscribed. I draw a horror webcomic and since I have a storyboarding/animation bg I always see major similarities to film making and editing. Your videos totally helped me solidify my workflow. Keep up the great work!
this guy gets it, I abandoned adobe for Davinci years ago and never looked back
Just like FCP before it Premiere is the industry standard to although YOU might have abandoned it, you still need to know how to use it. You can run, but you cannot hide.
@@krane15 avid is the industry standard *
@@Vincent-yv9sn Motion Pictures standard. I was referring to everything else.
There is absolutely no question that Resolve’s editing interface and capabilities are far superior to Premiere Pro.
@@willraee yeah, but da vinci requires more power, I understand people who edit on premiere due to an average computer
I really can't explain how good this video is. You have a new subscriber. Have a good one.
Ahhhh so much to learn! I always thought I’d hate editing and wouldn’t be able to do it but I’m actually really into it and can’t wait to get better.
This is actually applicable to any kind of editing and that's what I like. (speaking as someone editing a podcast at the moment)
Excellent video. I've seen a lot of "rules" around editing. But, these really sound solid and make a lot of sense to me. Thanks, Sven.
Great commandments! That's why it is important to edit as many movies as possible, You will always discover new ideas when finishing a project. We all think we can just get these ideas while thinking about something, but like this movie says, we can't even think through how 2 scenes will look like, till we combine them. How do we want to be able to get the new ideas that we would get after editing, by just thinking about the edit!
This video was fascinating. Thank you!
Good stuff. I'd take a deep dive into a few of these for sure.
This is so helpful and motivative for some reasons omg.
This video is awesome. Not just for the information which is vast and amazing. But also for the B-roll hahah love it
Excellent editing
Amazing vid! Thanks so much, bro
Thank you so much for this video.
I really wanna be an editor when i'm older, this really inspired me!
Thank you so much, again some big lessons here for me to study the editing process.
This was wonderful, thank you. :)
Great advice. This video has been really helpful
The thumbnail is me trying to eat while watching a movie without missing necessary visual cues.
Just Love your content, Immensely grateful
This is really cool to be aware of!
I learned a lot from this.... and as much as I consider myself a movie buff, I couldn't edit a you tube video.... Let alone a film. You guys are deep.
Great insights!
So much valuable content! Absolutely love it.
I appreciate that!
Excellent tips!!
Good! I have edited since 2005 and still learn new things. It's also a lot about finding your own storytelling.
Great. Amazing job!
I really enjoyed this. Thank you!
Wow. This was dope !
I love this and would like to learn more each time i visit this channel. This is a valuable channel.Thank you.
Many thanks...and oh my gosh the amount of pops I have in audio!
A brilliant video! Thanks.
Amazingly insightful
Thank you for this
BRO!!! 8:30 this was such a fantastic edit... I got nerdy happy.
Such a great video! Agree with the other comments how it's a beautifully edited.
I zeroed in on that whole dual macro and micro mindset that an editor needs. The way I interpret what he's saying is make sure that your scene beginnings and endings flow into each other. Make sure that your scene beginnings connect emotionally and technically with the scene ending that precedes it.
Great Video!
This is beautiful
Valuable experience has become the master of editing seven laws, wonderful sharing, thank you very much. Can you enable the new feature of subtitles, so that we can have the opportunity to translate for more people to understand.
Control 's' is vital in editing!!
8:30 - the two-frame cross dissolve. I have shown more editors that trick than all others combined. It's my default audio transition on all systems. It's a winner!
As an editor myself. I fully agree to everything in this video:)
This is great! Thank you!
Great overview 👌
Awesome ! I'm finishing the edit of my first feature, I'm gonna watch the hell of that video. :-)
still watching this enjoyable edited video
Oh my god, thanks, man! So much useful information.
Amazing video, will try to incorporate it into my editing.
With so much attention to detail and time that goes into films it makes me wonder how some films still fumble the bag
🔥 amazing video. 👍
Great job with the "whoosh" sounds on each of the 7 points at the end -- totally practicing what you teach!
Jeebus murphy. That audio pop thing lol. I remember two decades ago when I first came across that as an amateur editor, editing as a hobby, and finally figuring out how to fix it myself, and the solution being the same as they do here. lol. I just assumed my computer was glitching out. I didn't know it happened to the pros too, even today lol
Love this.
Best video for video editing
Yes! I follow him on Twitter! Thanks for the video!
Great instruction. Thanks.
Great insights
This is amazing
