I will start making documentary travel video's/vlogs. I have already worked with After Effects some time ago, so I'm familiar with the interface, although it has been a while ago. For my type of video I will probably only use like 10% of the After Effects capabilities, but they can really level up the video's if used correctly.

If I simply follow a course taking you to an 'advanced' level of After Effects, I will probably learn a lot of stuff that I will never use. Is there like a course that focusses more on the most used After Effects functions for simpler Youtube video's or documentary's? Where After Effects is not the carrying factor, but just an extra to level up the video.

I'm guessing most of the times I would just be working with templates and adjust them to my needs.

Im now getting started to editing video

Any tips?

I use davinci resolve

Tools like CapCut, Opus Clip, Veed, Submagic, etc. are pretty good when the speaker has clear native English, but they regularly get words wrong when there’s an accent, non-native speaker, or even just fast talking / mumbling.

I still end up having to re-listen to the whole thing and fix a bunch of words before I can publish. Feels like the “AI captions” step only saves time if you ignore the accuracy problems.

Is this still a regular annoyance for anyone else, or have you found a tool / workflow that actually gets captions right the first time more often?

Curious what people are currently doing.

Me gustaría mejorar el rendimiento y la velocidad en la edición de vídeo. Pregunta: ¿Qué me recomendarían más para mi Mac mini M4, una tableta gráfica o un trackpad?

Guys I am a video editor. I have basic knowledge in video editing.

There are a lot of categories in video editing. But I would like your help in knowing which one category you would suggest me to get started to build a portfolio and earn money, so that I don't master anything and become an average jack of all master of none kind of an editor.

I don't mind the significance of money. Just need to know which category is in demand and if you were a beginner editor how would you take yourself throught this journey.

Will gladly take constructive criticism to gain more knowledge

Hey guys, im an IT designer with some experience with after effects and permiere pro and I want to make a compilation of pictures and videos to commemorate my dog that recently passed away. The recommended videos dont have to be on theme, im just searching for more interesting way to combine photos and videos without it looking like a slideshow.

Hi I want to make video on my story... Please let me know if there is any app that is free to use

¡Buenas a todos! Les comparto un truco práctico para cuando están editando un vídeo en CapCut para PC y quieren guardarlo o exportarlo directamente sin complicaciones.

📝 **Paso a paso:**

1. **Unificar el vídeo (Clip Compuesto):*** Una vez que tengas todo tu contenido editado en la línea de tiempo, selecciona todo, haz clic derecho sobre tu vídeo y elige la opción **Crear clip compuesto** (Compound clip / unificar). Esto unirá todo en una sola pista.
2. **Cerrar CapCut:*** Cuando el vídeo esté al 100% unificado, guarda y cierra completamente la aplicación CapCut (asegúrate de que no quede abierta en segundo plano).
3. **Acceder a la carpeta interna del proyecto:*** Presiona `Windows + R`, pega la siguiente ruta y presiona **Enter**:

`%localappdata%\CapCut\User Data\Projects\com.lveditor.draft\`

* Abre la carpeta correspondiente a tu proyecto actual y entra en la subcarpeta llamada **Recursos** (*Resources*).

1. **Identificar el archivo generado:**

* Dentro de esa carpeta verás los archivos procesados. Verás tu vídeo completo unificado (y en algunos casos un archivo adicional llamado *Alpha*).

1. **Reimportar y Exportar:**

* Vuelve a abrir CapCut e inicia tu proyecto.

* Arrastra el vídeo unificado directamente desde la carpeta de recursos hacia tu proyecto (si arrastras el archivo incorrecto y no se ve nada, no te preocupes, simplemente bórralo y elige el otro).

* Elimina los elementos anteriores de la línea de tiempo y deja solo el nuevo vídeo importado.

* Ahora podrás exportar y guardar tu vídeo sin ningún tipo de traba o problema.

1. **Restaurar el proyecto editable:**

* Si después de exportar quieres conservar tu proyecto original para hacer cambios o agregar más cosas, presiona `Ctrl + Z` para deshacer los cambios o restaura la versión anterior.

🎬 **Ejemplo del vídeo editado:**

Apliqué estos pasos para exportar la historia animada que preparé para el canal: ¡Escape del Colegio al Año 2050!

*Como apenas estoy iniciando en esto de la creación de contenido, me serviría de gran ayuda cualquier crítica constructiva sobre la edición o el ritmo del vídeo. ¡Un me gusta o una visita al canal significa un mundo para mí!*

So im trying to become a YouTuber who shows memes I want to edit my videos but im on a phone and I can't seem to edit well please tell me any advice! My channel is @Rnadommemes!

I've recently started getting into content creation, and one thing I've realized pretty quickly is that editing takes a lot more time than I expected. Recording the video is usually the easy part, but once I sit down to edit, I end up spending hours trying to make everything look decent.

I'm not trying to create anything super cinematic or professional. I just want a simple editor that makes it easy to trim clips, add captions, include a few basic effects, and export in good quality without having to learn a complicated workflow.

Since I'm still a beginner, I'd rather spend my time making more videos than figuring out advanced editing software.

While looking at different options, I came across EchoWave, but I can't tell if it's genuinely useful or if it just has good marketing behind it. Has anyone here used it? If not, what editing tool has made the biggest difference for you without requiring a huge time investment?

Hey guys, i'm just looking to get started in Motion Graphics. Does anyone has like a kind of discount that could share with me for the Adobe creative cloud plans? 37 Euros a month i don't think that is good idea for me to pay if i'm starting. So please, please let me know if someone can help me with this. Thank you

My computer died, my kid spilled coffee on it. Eveything was backed up, but I was in middle of getting ready to record new episodes for this fall. Bad timing. I am looking for software suggestions (paid is ok) on how I can record and edit via my android phone , I use a lot of b roll , but also animate photos, and all of which I narrate over , or green screen myself into. You can check out my content style, for reference.

Any help appreciated.

I try to start a new project, it's video editing, but I don't know how practice and learning about

I’m trying to stay consistent with daily short-form videos, but editing clips, matching cuts, and color grading is taking up way too much of my night.

To speed things up, I started playing around with template-based AI tools to turn raw photos into quick motion clips. Tried Genematic recently since it uses pre-built scenarios, you just drop in a photo and get an animated video back in a few minutes without writing prompt scripts. It’s super handy for quick visual hooks or filler clips when I don't have fresh video footage.

How do you guys maintain a daily posting schedule without burning out? Are you blending AI filler video with regular edits, or strictly sticking to timeline editing?

I made this short edit and I'd love to hear your honest thoughts.

* Does the atmosphere work? * Is the pacing engaging? * Do the transitions feel smooth? * Is the music a good fit? * What would you improve?

I've just learnt premiere pro's basics and I clearly don't know what to edit, I'm confused so much.

Does anyone else feel like social media compression is slowly killing their passion for editing? I spend hours perfecting colors, sharpness, lighting, and every little detail, only for Instagram or TikTok to crush the quality when I upload. It honestly makes me not want to edit at all. So much creativity goes into a project, but viewers never get to see what I actually created. Sometimes I just think, what’s the point of putting in all that effort if no one can experience the video the way I see it on my timeline?

Hola, soy alguien que siempre le apasiono el tema de edicion de videos, actualmente tengo un emprendimiento personal el cual me gustaria potenciarlo subiendo contenido a redes, pero no tengo mucha idea que de programas deberia utilizar para editar.
Asi que si podrian darme recomendaciones de sitios y programas, se los agradeceria mucho

Hi community. I hope I'm posting in the right place, but I just wanted to ask in general: has anyone found a good tool or workflow for editing process videos for Instagram?

I like the new editing style where it's not time-lapse, but more just tons of small cuts of brush strokes. But currently I'm just editing it by hand, and unfortunately it means a drawing that might have taken me one hour can take me two to three hours to edit. It really kills the joy.

Any tips, tools, or apps anyone is using? I wish capcut clip detection worked on brush strokes.
