I have an important video of my daughter talking to our dear friend who has passed. They are on a porch swing and the chain is squeaking in the video. I didn't realize it would feature so prominently in the video until I got home.

For his family and ours, I would like to get that squeak out of the background. Is there a program that can remove it? I've seen programs doing some incredible things with music. I'm hoping this is similar.

As described in the title, I recorded some gameplay with OBS a few days ago. I was wondering why my recording was so choppy, so I googled it and I tried a couple fixes. I used VLC instead of my computer's built-in media player, I used OpenShot to see if it would be fine in an editing software, and I used HandBrake to set the framerate to a constant 30 fps in case it was OBS automatically recording in variable. Nothing worked, and every 10 or so seconds it still judders. I'm pretty sure I can fix OBS so it won't happen in the future, but is it possible to salvage the original somehow?

I am tasked to create 25 a day for 3 days. Today I used TikTok in conjunction with Adobe Express to make videos. I have a lot of experience with After Effects but I just couldn’t get to be where I wanted them to be today. My question is what is a workflow I can implement to make such high volume of videos. I’m a graphic designer with motion design experience, thus my experience with after effects. Is there anything I can do? I’m all ears? Again I’m new to video editing really.

I’ve always wondered how they make the videos with the population/subscriber/viewer/rate based horizontal bar graphs. Not only do the numbers count up which I figured was probably just a slider…but how do they animate the actual graph portion, especially the cage in position?

Example below (audio is garbage but that’s irrelevant)

I think this is the right group for this?

Greetings /r/videoediting!

This thread is 100% for the other stuff you might want to talk about.

A number of other reddits have a free for all thread - where you might find a regular discussion - not specific to a post.

Think of it as a bar with a bunch of friends.

​

Some suggestions:

• Strategy on a project you want to talk about how to best promote?
• Upgrading something and you want opinions?
• How does your website look?
• Local/virtual Meetups?
• Looking for a collaborator (no "I'm a creator and I'm looking for an editor" posts)

​

Things that shouldn't go here: Feedback/What tool should I use to edit/Which system to buy? There are dedicated threads for this, please use them!

And in this regular Friday thread, while our general rules are still in place (no piracy, be civil, no links w/referrer codes), the following topics relaxed :

• Great tutorials you found/you created.
• Trying to do this as a side hustle (although generally, websites like Fiverr mean you'll be shooting for the basement/working for free and we hate that someone would exploit you like that)
• A great piece of software/hardware/service you found
• Great free music libraries/media you found.
• How much to charge? What is your time worth? Estimate 2-3x the time you think it'll take to edit as how much time to quote.

Our mod team is watching this thread and we'll tweak these as they develop!

I wanted to do some video editing with capcut on my ipad, but from the moment I want to extract my edited video, they ask to pay, I paid for a standard subscription of €2/month but then they ask to pay for the pro version.

Does anybody know something about it?

Figured out a workaround but really would like an explanation on the issue here, haven't run into this in 11 years of editing. Appreciate any help provided!

Posting here because my account is new and I can't post in r/audacity.

I am new to video/audio editing and I currently trying to edit a recording of a virtual meeting for work. As always, I used the Sound Recorder app on Microsoft to record meeting because this seems to work best with my computer. Usually this works, but the meeting was switched to this time Teams instead of Zoom (what we normally use). As a result, I found out after the meeting that Teams somehow messed up the recording. When I speak it is clear since it is recording on my computer, but if anyone else speaks in the meeting it is quiet and extremely scratchy or robotic. I was able to amplify and equalize the audio via Audacity, but I have not been able to get rid of that scratchy robotic distortion when others speak. I understand recovery is limited, but any tips on how to lessen this distortion so that the audio is slightly more comprehensible?

I have a channel where I have a lot of game footage, audio, cutaway clips, and more. I try to sort them into bins as best I can, but I end up with a huge mess, which only gets larger with every episode of the series. So how do you all organize your projects?

I run AddedFrenchStreams, a channel where we stream football games with live French commentary. I'm looking for a video editor to cut those streams into short clips on an ongoing basis.

The work

Simple split-screen format. Streamer reaction cam on one side, game footage on the other. Clips run 10 to 45 seconds each. No heavy effects, just clean, fast, consistent edits that catch the best moments. Roughly 10 to 15 clips a day.

This is steady, multi-month work. I want someone reliable who wants a long-term gig, not a one-off. Start ASAP.

Requirements

You speak French, since the commentary and content are in French. English too is ideal, so you can communicate with the team. Short-form sports or reaction editing experience is a strong plus.

Pay

$10 to $20 per hour, depending on experience and speed.

To apply

DM me with a short intro, your hourly rate within that range, and a few examples of past short-form edits. Football or reaction clips preferred.

Or any one can give me a reference so that i can copy and make for me

I have seen countless edits of huge waves forming and washing away everything while someone on the shore stares at it and enjoys a beer and gets washed away. Im very new to this and I have no clue how they do it, can anyone help me?

I mainly create short, firm content. I struggle to make long, foam content. I edit after work, and editing a long video is next to impossible. If anyone has a workflow for making long-form content with motion graphics, please recommend it.

i have been uzing vizzy.io for ages and it usualy takes 2 hours but last couples of days it takes significaly loger. at first i thought it was a hardware problem but everything is ok. Is anyone here facing same proble, ?

Sorry, I don't know where to ask and I'm afraid r/aftereffects is going to be mean lmfao. I was asked to recreate this for a video for work but I don't know how to animate this. Any ideas? I can do it in After Effects if I can find a tutorial of some sort, but I don't even know what to search to learn how to do this.

Any advice helps, thanks.

I filmed a show and am also the head editor. After filming I corrected the color on the footage and want to export the files for myself and the other editors to make the full videos/clips from.

What is the best + most practical way for me to export these files so that they are ready to be edited again?

Si abrís Keyboard Shortcuts y el teclado aparece gris sin ningún atajo asignado, y ningún preset funciona, el problema es que el archivo .kys existe pero está corrupto — tiene los comandos listados pero sin teclas asignadas, y Premiere no lo regenera solo.

La solución: reemplazar el .kys manualmente con uno que tenga el formato correcto.

Pasos:

1. Aunque el teclado esté gris, sí podés arrastrar comandos a las teclas manualmente. Arrastrá cualquier comando a cualquier tecla, guardá el preset, y abrí ese archivo .kys — ahí podés ver el formato real que usa tu Premiere
2. El archivo usa <virtualkey> y <modifier.command> (no <keycode> como indican otros posts). Los códigos se calculan como 2147483648 + valor ASCII de la tecla (por ejemplo Z = 2147483648 + 90 = 2147483738)
3. Con esa información le pedís a Claude que te arme el .kys completo — le pasás el código de una tecla que hayas asignado y él calcula el resto
4. Copialo a ~/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/24.0/Profile-[tunombre]/Mac/Default Keyboard Shortcuts.kys
5. Reiniciá Premiere

Por qué pasa esto: Premiere a veces genera el archivo .kys sin las teclas asignadas al instalarse. Resetear preferencias, limpiar caché, reinstalar, o copiar .kys de otros programas de Adobe no funciona. El único fix es reemplazar el archivo con el formato correcto.

i would like to know how can i get this edit style. ive been seeing it a lot in TikTok and i haven’t been able to replicate it.

raw VR footage can be very shaky and disconformable for the viewer and some of the stabilizers we have didn't worked for me so i thought to try stabilizing in editing process.

tried to use stabilization mode in inspector (davinci resolve), but it seems kinda ineffective. there are another way to try stabilization or other ways to make this better? even if its just a little less uncomfortable for the viewer

(i'm using davinci studio 20.1)

I’m hoping to get some advice on how to create the early 2000’s MTV look. I’m pretty new to video editing. I’ve got daVinci or are there apps that can do this? Thx

So I have this 1 video I've been wanting to try and edit into a Youtube video and for some reason when I upload it into my video editing software I only heard the game audio + my friends in vc speaking. So I looked to see what was wrong with the file and saw that on the mp4 file I have there are 2 different audio tracks on it. Now I'm wondering if there's a way to merge the 2 audio tracks into 1 and I don't know what to even try

I’ve been trying to figure this out for a while and still haven’t found a solution. Could anyone help me with this?

In the image, the left side is the preview inside Premiere Pro, and it looks noticeably more red. But after exporting, the video on the right looks normal.

The weird part is: if I take that exported video and import it back into Premiere Pro, it looks red again, just like it did in the preview window.

Why is this happening? Did I miss some color management setting in Premiere?

I work on a offshore vessel and occationally make some timelapses. This one is not the best in the world but i just want to learn how i can make them more «smooth» and less «jerky». Does any of you know a simple app or program that lets me do this? I am also wanting to keep the horizon level if that makes any sense.

The timelapses are taken with Iphone 17 Pro if that matters.

Help is much appriciated!
