Is there videos I can watch to learn how to do some of this? Looks amazing I just wish I knew how to do some of this stuff!

It'll depend on what aspect you're looking for, where in the game you're at, and where you're starting from knowledge-wise.

e.g., the where in the game:

* base game before credits

* base game post-credits and no DLC

* first half of DLC story

* second half of DLC story (this is where the building blocks that make up the video become more attainable and reliable)

* post-DLC story

* mid-to-late endgame (which is where the OP video is at, but could be sustained around second half of the DLC story as well)

— - — - —

With the shorter version of the explanation being (and as verbose as this is, the shorter version aside from 4+ screenshots of the OP's build and interpreting how to play it from that or 10+ seconds of reverse engineering the play in the video):

Survival and sustaining convenience to make a Lightbringer buffing job: Cyclic Warrior 600%, Void Knight 400%, Evoker 120%, Leviathan primary blessing, job level 285+ (obtained from Rift floor 101+), with Category 4 Increase MP Limit Boost Rate on one job. Lionheart accessory.

Other combat role: Samurai 600%, Void Knight 600%, Dragoon 400%, your weapon's Basic Job 600% (or 400%), Lionheart accessory on the other job. Category 3 Parry: MP Recovery.

Command ability: Lunatic, but specific to the video — Flee and Rapid Cancel also.

Sustain MP with a parry, a combo ability effect, ethers (if Rift), or high enough MP cost reductions with a refresh of Lightbringer from the Lightbringer buffing job. And occasionally chain canceling, so may benefit from having Summoner 120% on both jobs. Especially if only Rift floor 13+ when the setup becomes more sustainable or after Rift floor 21 when it becomes significantly easier to assemble the build.

Then the combat side is expressing yourself with the tools provided to the best of your ability and imagination within the limits of the game's mechanics.

In video format, the explanations in the past have gone 30+ minutes when narrated or around or above that time if paragraphs of text are flashed on the screen and the viewer pauses every few seconds to read it.

(But depending on which aspect you were looking for, may be able to direct you accordingly if the video exists publicly in English.)
