12 months ago when I made my first cinematic vlog, I honestly had no idea what I was doing.

But after a year of experimenting and a lot of mistakes, I finally learned how to make my vlogs actually feel like a movie.

So in this video, I'm going to share all my editing secrets that completely changed the way I edit.

Hello, welcome back.

If you're new here, my name is Terry.

I like to make vlogs and share the process to you guys so you can do the same thing.

So this is the third part of my mini series where i share about my creative process on planning filming

and editing a vlog so yeah

if you haven't watched the first two parts i'll leave a link in the description below

so you can watch it later all right now we're ugly let's get into it

so this is the number one important thing

when it comes to editing especially for youtube because this pretty much makes

or breaks your video

if your goal is to get more people to watch it

i'll go into a bit deeper later on on how i actually edit the video

but this part i just want to emphasize it first

because it is that important what i like to do is to start off with a question something

that can drive the audience curiosity so to keep them watching

so i like to put some of the best visuals during this part as well

so i can retain the viewership

and i will pair it usually with some faster upbeat music

to keep the excitement as well as the caption on screen

of course there are many different ways to plan out your intro.

Life of Risa for example, she does it beautifully in a totally different way but this is what works for me.

And if you're a perfectionist, this is the part you want to be absolutely perfect.

So I don't recommend being a perfectionist.

The software that I use is the DaVinci Resolve Studio which is the paid version.

There is a free version.

In the beginning I was using that for probably a couple of months

and then decided to go all in

and i have to say yeah it's one of the best purchases i made it is good

but i think even for the free version i was able

to do i think most of the stuff i was still

making videos for those like i didn't have any problem with it i used don't be premiere before

but i just found davinci is bit user friendly i guess

i can have all my workflow on one software rather than

switching from premiere to davinci cap cut i haven't really tried it a few people asked me about that

but I've never personally tried it myself so I can't really comment on that.

All my edits are on my laptop.

I've never used my phone to edit pretty much.

It's just not intuitive.

Basically yeah as long as you can edit just find what's the most convenient and accessible to you.

One of the most challenging things is where do you even start when it comes to editing?

Well this is where organization comes in.

To be honest, I'm not a very organized person so if I can do it, you can do it.

I like to encrypt the footage in different scenes.

I think it's a good way to kickstart a fresh project so you don't get overwhelmed.

And since I like to edit in chronological order, it's pretty easy.

I just dump everything onto the timeline and then just cut it accordingly.

It's probably the easiest and fastest way to edit, I would say.

Okay so you've got your footage organized in different scenes so what now apart from just stitching them together?

Well glad you asked.

Think about how to build a story around it.

What I mean is what do you want to express in this scene?

What sort of feelings are you feeling while you're recording?

What sort of emotions you want to bring it to your audience?

So there's this scene that felt kind of heavy while I was recording in Hong Kong.

It was an ex-jail and I really wanted to show how I felt during

that time so this is what I did since it's a bit heavy is not something

that I usually like to give to my audience

but at the same time I want them to feel how I felt at the moment

so I chose musics that's a bit more gloomy I'm really

trying to tone down the aperture a bit to give

that sense of hopelessness in despair and yeah if you can it's best to figure out the

emotions or vibes that you want to go for during recording I think that will really help

okay now let's get into a bit more practical as I just mentioned music really drives the emotion

so what I like to do is to pick a track

that fits the vibe with that scene because

that can really set the tone for the video

and this is probably more important than you think let me show you an example.

This is with track A.

And this is with track B.

As you can see the whole vibe of the video changes

because of the different tempo and the different emotion that is driving.

So make sure to choose something that matches with your vision.

Sometimes it can be frustrating when you find bang a track that you love but it just doesn't fit with the edit.

If you've been there, you know how much time it will take and it just kills your momentum.

That's why I use Epidemic Sound.

It's a platform with over 50,000 original tracks by real artists and over 200,000 sound effects.

I've been using it since day one on my channel and it really helped to elevate my content.

They even have a DaVinci Resolve plugin, which honestly is a game changer.

I don't know how many hours it has saved me.

You just simply drag your track and drop it into your timeline.

It just makes my editing so much smoother now, especially when I'm trying to push out one video a week.

And now they have launched a new AI power tool called Adapt, where you can change the mood of a track to match a scene,

adjust the length of the track or even rearrange a section so it lines up perfectly with your video.

This just makes editing so much more simpler and easier and

because the music are still produced by real artists they get to earn more

because now the tracks can be used in more different ways so

if you want to try epidemic sound i got a link

in the description for you where you can get 30 days

free trial thank you epidemic sound for sponsoring this segment of this video

so once you have your track down i usually like to

match it with the music i'll often try to cut the

video to the beat unless it was like a voice over

or i'm talking in the video during those parts i'll try to prioritize what i'm telling in the story

so it could be i'm talking about this particular dish

and then i'll add some b-rolls on top of it this

can help give more context on what i'm talking about

100

and to take it to the next level sound effects are a great way to enhance

101

that scene or just add some impact to your video

102

so the next part some of the tips and techniques I've found super useful so make sure to listen up.

103

So first is the J cut and L cut.

104

So for J cut is when the audio ends before the visual

105

which makes the transition a bit more seamless and

106

because it looks like a J on the timeline that's why it's called J cut

107

and L cut is pretty much the reverse.

108

Kill your darlings.

109

I think this down really comes down to experience.

110

The more that you do it the better you get better at it.

111

What I mean by that is to be ruthless to your footy like you You don't need

112

that full 10 seconds of you pouring your coffee into the mug.

113

Just cut off the part that is non-essential to the video.

114

Next one is cut on action.

115

What it means is to go to the next scene while you are in that motion.

116

So here's an example how I did that.

117

So I was walking towards the rock, sit down, tick on my notebook and start scribbling.

118

Think in sequences, not shots.

119

Just like the previous example, I think about how the scene will play out rather than

120

every single shot like after figuring out the whole story like

121

me walking to the rock sitting on the rock that's another

122

step kind of thing then from then you can get a clear visual on what sort of shots

123

that you want in that scene match cut this is something really fun

124

and cool especially for transitions

125

so in here i sort of use this oval shape to

126

take it to the next scene you can do it differently like just having yourself on the same spot

127

and then jump to the next location something like that

128

or just simply turn around and back that's a common one

129

and the last one is more like um a tip it's not really a technique.

130

It's try to edit as soon as possible while your story and the footage is still fresh.

131

Because the longer you leave it, the more likely you'll forget.

132

To be fair, most of my travel vlogs I leave it till like months until I start editing.

133

And sometimes I already forgot what was happening during those moments.

134

So yeah, try to be as fast as you can.

135

The next part is my favorite part which is the colors and effects and that's where all the magic happens here.

136

By the way there are many different ways to do this.

137

There's no right or wrong but yeah this is just a workflow that I like to do.

138

I'll try to break it down as simple as possible.

139

It's not as complicated as it sounds like but yeah just to keep that in mind.

140

So first if you were able to properly expose your footage this shouldn't be too hard.

141

Since I'm a big fan of that filmic look.

142

The first thing I do is to convert to that.

143

Output here I'm using the Sinon film lock.

144

Honestly I don't actually understand this bit.

145

This was a workflow that I learned from Rena Gauss video.

146

I've kept some of it and developed my own to simplify my workflow.

147

And now here's the magic.

148

Put on that LUT and boom already looking super nice.

149

Then I'll fiddle around with the primary just to get the desired look.

150

Here I try not to do too much because I quite like the image already.

151

Also one important thing, try to separate things on a different note so you can easily adjust them if you have to.

152

Think of it as layering in winter time.

153

You have your beanie, your heat tag, your leggings.

154

You can always take one part off from your body.

155

Well, maybe not the leggings but you get the point.

156

Next, I like my footage to look a bit warmer

157

so I'll dial up the temperature a little bit and usually I like less magenta.

158

but I think it's a bit too green here so I'm just gonna turn it up a notch.

159

Now all the basics are pretty much done but personally like to stylize it with my own flare.

160

I'm putting some glow, not too much otherwise it will be too bright.

161

Relation just to make things sparkle a little bit.

162

Turning down the sharpness as I like the image to be a bit softer mimicking

163

that filmic look and finally my secret sauce which is the radial blur.

164

Sort of gives the edge a bit of blur to simulate that Film look and that is it.

165

Hope you guys enjoyed it.

166

This is the final part of this series Thank you

167

so much for watching throughout the series I hope you can find some valuable information from this.

168

So what do you guys want me to talk about next?

169

Let me know in the comment section down below and if you watch until this part

170

Make sure to drop like a director I don't know this emoji

171

and if you've been thinking about documenting your life

172

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
