Transcripts

1. Introduction: Hey guys, my name is and get the idea. And I am a child filmmaker, also a YouTuber, working in this industry from last five years. Welcome to the new class. And today I'm going to share a real-world example of how to create the best crazy cinematic intros for the YouTube videos. So that when somebody see that, it's going to be really blew their mind for the first 30 to 40 s. Those kinds of interests I'm going to talk about in this class. And the main topic of this class is editing break down. I'll be showing you the entire timeline how to edit in Premier Pro. And then we will move on to the next thing. Show you everything clip by clip, like the all effects and the transitions. How to create time-lapse, how to create hyper laps, how to do different sort of masking effects where the speed ramp transition. And then we will move on to the color grading section and Africa creating. We'll talk about side-effects, music. So basically we will cover everything in this class for your project. I have also added all the raw file for you so that you can download those videos and practice in the premium pro. Do all of those editing what I have shown you in this class. So without any further ado, let's get started. 2. Different Types of INTROs: So I'm going to show you the before and after. I show you the raw clips. And then we will start breaking down everything one by one, like transitions and effects, color grading, sound effects, music, basically what I've used in the timeline. So it's going to be a great learning video. Let's see the raw clips first and then the final one. And after that, I'll see you in a bit intro that you just saw. It's just one type of the intro. There could be different types, like it could be more visually appealing or could be more story-driven. Maybe fast pace, maybe slow-paced, maybe with lot of effects and transitions. Basically, you want to show the best clips in the intro. These are all the different methods you can approach any of it according to your query. This is just one type that I just showed you. Like for this Dubai video, I wanted to show something really fast pace with lot of crazy breathtaking visuals to showcase Dubai in the best possible way. Like I wanted to give the feeling if anybody is seeing the video, there should be like, wow, what did I see? What a place? What did video or something like that. So it totally depends what do you want to create and if you're talking about creating an intro, I also wanna say that I always create intro videos after I'm done editing the entire blog or entire video. Never create intro before you start the video. Because you are getting of law. You don't know what kind of clips you will need. And when you're done editing the entire video, you know the best possible clips. And you also get visuals in your mind that what kind of intro could be interesting for this one because you've edited the entire video. So I always do that. I always edit my intro is once I am done with the entire video. 3. Let's see the RAW Footages: Hey guys, my name is Ankit body. I hope you're doing well. And today I'm going to do the breakdown of the best intro I have ever created for any of my child video is from the y. So I'm going to show you the before and after I show you the raw clips. And then we will start breaking down everything one by one, like transitions and effects, calibrating sound effects, music, basically what I've used in the timeline. So it's going to be a great learning video. And let's see, the raw clips. Definitely. 4. Editing Breakdown: Now let me show you the timeline. And so this is the entire timeline. I've added this intro in the Premier Pro. So these are all the video clips, as you can see, V1, V2, V3. And this is the music. And these are all the sound effects, and this is the adjustment layer. So you can see before and after. And now we're going to do the breakdown of the clips. But before that, let me show you the music which I have used. Let's go here. I've used only this part from the song. So if you listen to this one, you'll feel like something is going really fast pace. So that's why I've used only this portion because I really liked it. 5. Title in After affects: Let's now break down all the clips one-by-one. I'll show you that transitioning effects, whatever I have used. So this is the first clip, and I created this clip in After Effects, like writing dubai title. Now let's go to After Effects and let me show you the title. Let's see this. I've just used here 3D tracker to track it and then put the title on this one. So if I just remove this and you can see I've just done the 3D title and using this, I have used the mask here. I've just masked the Dubai here. If you want to see how I have done the 3D tracking in After Effects, it's pretty easy. I'm not going to explain it here. So I'll just mentioned the link in the description. You can go and I'll explain it there. How to do this? Exactly. 6. All the effects and Transitions I used: Now let's go back to Premier Pro. And the second clip is just me skydiving. And then this is the third clip. And here I have used the masking. You can see that I'm just masking and revealing a new video. If I go to the Effects Control and if we go to opacity in the mosque, we can see that I have just masked this clip. So let's go to the original clip here. See, I have just done the speed ramping also in the end to increase the speed. So let's go to the original clip. This was done. In this clip, we were actually in the left going to the top of Burj Khalifa and we were seeing a lot of different backgrounds. So that's why I use this clip. It's looking really amazing. Let me tell you, I pretty much used masking, speed ramp, the dolly zoom, and for hyper laps and for time-lapse, I've used frame blending. So these are all the different effects that I've used and I almost use it all the time. And I'm going to explain it one-by-one where I have used it. 7. A simple use of Position and Scaling: For this clip, I've just speeded up to almost 3,000. See, this was the original clip. Now let's go to the next clip. This is simple one. Again, a simple did nothing here. Simple clip. Here for this one, just let me show you in the effects control, I've used the position to move it from down to top. If I can just remove the adjustment layer, you will see that. See, I've just adjusted using the position. You will see me a lot using position and scaling from the Effects Control Tab. 8. Where to use Dolly zoom effect: Here I've used dolly zoom. If you go to the scale, how to do that? So you just need to scale it and then just drop it down to 100. So if you have any clip, Let's say you have a straight on shot, then if you scale it first to 150, something around 15150 and then go down from 15200. So it will give you a dolly zoom kind of effects either original clip. So we're going in a straight direction, right? Like it's pretty easy to visualize it, how it can happen. So you can apply to any clip, just scale it from 15200. 9. Easiest Way to create Hyperlapse: And yeah, here are the crazy hyper laps. Lot of frame blending. Frame blending means like you are creating a motion blur on the clips. Let me show you, okay. So these are the two clips. So if you go here, let me show you the original one, C. So this was the clip I recorded with 72 200 mm lens. And I just must this clip in the end. So if we go here, show the masking, see frame-by-frame, I'm just revealing a new clip and this is the hyper laps. So let me show you the hyper laps also. Let's go to the Nested Sequence. See this crazy hyper lapse. So how I generally shoot the hyper lapses, I put the camera on gimbal and I was in metro in this scene and just put it like that. And later on speeded up in the editing. You can see that I've speeded up to 1,000 per cent. If you go to the original clip. You'll see for this clip, I have used actually as enqueue mode. So it's going very fast. And again, I've speeded up to thousand per cent. And here I applied the frame blending if you go ahead and speed. And if you apply the frame blending, if we apply the frame sample, by default, it's going to look like this. And if you want to give the motion blur, then you go to the speed and set it to frame blend and you will see a nice motion blur. And again also here I have used masking. So if you go to the Effects Control and click the mask, you'll see the mask here. This is the mask. I'm revealing a new hyper laps. And again, this hyper laps in the city how I've taken it. I always just usually walking on the gimbal with the camera, just recording a normal video and spirit up later in the editing. So let me show you the original one here. See here I'm walking, just walking, walking, walking in Spirit up to almost 2,500 per cent. If you see that here. Then I have just combine multiple clips, same for this as well. And also after speeding up, I've applied the frame blending. So we go from here to masking to new location. And then here, that's the final club. It's pretty easy. Just frame blending, use a hyper lapse feature and do the masking later in editing. That's what I have done here. We go by frame-by-frame. You see I'm revealing our location and then a new location, and then a new location. And again here with the same thing I've done here, speeded up, speed it up, and just mask it here. In the end I must. If you go to the nested sequence c. Let me show you the original clip. I was just pretty much just walking like this. I did. And again, in the end, you can apply the speed ramp if you want to learn how to apply the speed RAM, how to do the masking. There is a different video link in the description. You can find it from there. 10. Night to Day Transition: And this is just a drone shot. Again, normal video. This is a time-lapse. So if you see this, I've speeded up almost 2000 per cent from night to day. There's simple time-lapse. And this is again, normal clip. Normal clip. Oh yeah, this is really crazy. I want to explain this effect also. We could be going from night to day. Here. Let's go in this clip. This is a different shot I've taken at nighttime and then this is a different shot I've taken in the daytime. So I've combined it together. So it looks seamless like your phone going from night to day. So let me show you the original clip. This is the night, and let me show you this clip as well. So this is the this is the clip I took in the daytime. See, from here we're going under a bridge and then simply coming out from the bridge. And so I've combined it together using the masking. Obviously, if I let me show you again, see simple mask. Here. I've done the masking and revealed a new clip. So just mashed it perfectly and see this. This is crazy. I love it. 11. Moving timelapse: Now here, this is a very simple clip. No need to explain. Simple clip. Know transitional effects. Simple clips. Just speed it up here. If I zoom in, you will see that I've speeded up to almost 800 per cent. If we go to the original clip. This was the original. And I'll speed it up. 12. The best use of Masking Transition: Oh, this was again, we took in the lift. See the shot. It's really crazy shot. See how the background is changing. And again, this is a very simple clip, simple time-lapse. So for this time less we actually went at 04:00 A.M. to this top of the building and we were standing here and just shooting a time-lapse. It came out really amazing. And I'll use this time-lapse at another place also. So I've zoomed in almost thousand per cent and then took a very close-up shot and then using another area, another time-lapse. I'll show you later on. This again, simple clip, simple clip. Simple speeded up. Simple clipped. Simple, nothing much. Oh, yeah. Again, let me explain this clip also. So I've done the same way. This is a simple clip. I've speeded up to almost 500 per cent. If you go check the original one, you will see that I just put it on a gimbal and I'm recording it from the car and then I speed it up to almost 500 per cent and then applied framed lending. So you can see that it's all blurry here. And then again after like in here, I've done the masking. So if you go to the Control Panel, if you can see that I've applied the masking here. See revealing a new video. For this masking. Just use the feather from 200, almost zero to 200, So that I wanted to give a soft look here. And then even this drone shot. 13. Why you should use Gimbal: So what I've done here in this clip is if you go here, you will see that I'm just spinning up in the end to figure the original. I'm just recording a gimbal and taking it down and then speeding it up. So when you shoot videos with the Kimball, it becomes easier to speed it up and it still looks smooth. So that's why I tried to use gimbal most of the time and I'm vlogging and shooting professional videos. 14. Trick to Create Multiple Timelapse from One Timelapse: The simple shot again, simple shot here, again, use the dolly zoom. You see that this is dolly zoom. If you go to the Effects Control, I'll just scale it from 142 back to 101, 14 back 200. And this again, time-lapse or this really amazing shot. Yeah, this is simple. We combined to match cuts. So it looks exactly the same here. And then again, same way, again, hyper laps. And this is again dolly zoom. So if you go here, we'll see that C from 12200. Dolly zoom again. Here are, this is a really amazing shot. This is the time-lapse shot. If you go to the revealing project, if you see the original time-lapse, this is the same time-lapse and I'm just using this area. So if you go to the Effects Control, you will see that as I have just zoomed in. If I zoom out, you will see that this is the original time-lapse. So if you shoot time-lapse with taking photos, you have the flexibility because he will afford your photos. Resolution will be really high and it's been six scared list. And then you can really zoom into the videos. They should time-lapse with taking photos. 15. Let's Rewind All the effects and Transitions: Oh, this is just a random shot I combine. Show you this one. This this is the shot. I was just using here, 72, 200 MM lens. And I would just taking shots like this. This is the shot. And then it looks really crazier. Again. I'm scaling it here. This is simple time-lapse, and that's it. So yeah, these are all the clips what I used. I used speed ramp transition. I use frame blending for hyper lapse so that we get the motion blur. I use the dolly zoom effect and I used the masking for few of the clips. And that's pretty much it. Covering up transitions and effects. 16. Color Grading a DSLR Footage: Now let's move on to the next one, which is color grading. I'll show you a few clips how I have colored grid and how I usually collected all of my videos. This is the same method that apply. So let me quickly show you. So for color grading, Let's just choose this clip. So this is the one I took from Sony camera. So what I'll do is I'll use one zoning clip, one GoPro clip, fun drone clip. That's how you will get to know. So this is the raw clip I showed this video and as log two. So let's take this and let's just make a copy and just remove the color grading. So you can see that here, I have used my own preset AB outdoor three. This is the P set from as log two. This is basically where you can apply in all the different kinds of clubs. So the p set back consist of the P set for GoPro, for phone, for drone. But I'm today I'm going to show you if I don't use the preset, I use just my Lutz to apply so that if you're using any software for like the Premier Pro and I've introduced all Final Cut Pro. Any software can apply these less anywhere. Let's do that. You can see that the color grading one. So what I'll do is I'll just go to the Effects Control and apply Lumetri color here. And then as I've showed this in the log format, I'll just go to the Creative tab and I'll apply the outdoor lot. So this will basically convert into rax seven or nine video, normal video. You can apply it anywhere. If I short this video from the drone, GoPro can just simply apply this lead. It will convert. And you can see this effect immediately. And then I'll apply the second light. Basically main three, Let's outdoor baseline and the final, based on the final and I'll apply basically will change the colors and the outdoor outlet, I'll apply for only converting from log to normal if you've already showed in the normal format like seminar and then you don't need to apply this outdoor. You can directly apply the base and the final. So here for this clip, I'm just going to apply only the baseline. Here. You can find out AB masturbate slit. And I can just change the intensity. And here I'll just, what I'll do is I'll just increase the exposure. And I think I'm pretty much done. So that's how I calibrated. It's pretty easy, right? And I've saved this as a preset so you can easily apply on the clubs. 17. Color Grading a Gopro Footage: This is the one I took on GoPro. This is the raw clip. So let's calibrate this clip as well. Let's go to the Lumetri color. And I think this is I shot in the law format, so I'm just going to apply the outdoor toilet or this is too much. So just maybe change to 20 per cent. Okay. That's it. And then apply the base, let maybe 80, 80 per cent and then apply the final length. This is too much, let's just minimum to it. And then I'll go to the first one, go to the Basic Correction. And then just maybe increase the exposure, increase the shadows a bit, and I think increase the temperature. That's it. So we can see this one. This is the original video which I have collected in and now this is what I'll grade it now so you can apply also vignette. I think I've applied the vignette here. So go to the vignette and just do that. These are my settings for vignette. And now if you go and check, Let's see, these are almost same. And I think in my head creating clip. But I see that here. You can see the blues, right? So what I can do is I can just go to the curves and decrease the saturation. So decrease the saturation. I think this is a little bit of saturation. And in the shadows area, just maybe you do this. I see that this is almost seem. So that's how you can color great GoPro clip and just let me just delete this. 18. Color Grading a Drone Footage: Now let's edit one drone clip. Maybe let's calculate this one. So this is the row. Let's just take it from here. This is to crop it. Okay? And let me just disable this. This is our raw clip. This is the final edited version. Okay, now let's go to this raw clip. What I'll do is simply, again, go to Lumetri, drag it and go to Create air, go to outdoor. That's it. Can wet it first and then go here, apply the bracelet. That's it. Okay. Now what I'll do is I'll go to the Lumetri again, basic correction increase the temperature and boom. In Greece, a little bit of exposure. Contrast highlights. Just a bit. I think this is. So you can see that this is the video I have graded before back in 2020 and this is now I've just created. You see that if we increase the tint, we will see that reddish look. So if we increase the red just a bit by tint, and then you will see that it's almost matching. What I can do is I can just go here and decrease the temperature. You want to make it more yellow than increase the temperature or maybe decrease that. I'm Rachel. It's pretty easy. So yeah, that's how I graded the drone footage. So if you want to use these lots are presets. These all the lights are included in the abs log to preset back. So you just go to the link in the description and can get all the presets along with the lats you can apply in any software. 19. Color Grading Technique Temperature & Tint: And one more last is, let's say this is another clip. So this is really interesting clip. Let me show you. If we just disable the color grading. You will see that like it's not that saturated. It's very, it's not that tinted. So if we apply this, you see a great change. See how to achieve this kind of look. You can see that only highlight is getting effected, right? And this is the final look. So what I'll do is I'll just go to the Lumetri Color. And then first obviously Word using the outdoor, This is too much so I'll just decrease a bit. I'll just apply only 20 per cent and then apply again. Apply the bracelet same way. And just go to the Basic Correction. And I think increase it a bit, increase it a bit. And that's it. If you see the difference, you will see that C, again, highlight is getting affected a lot. So just using the temperature and tint I have changed. You can even increase it a bit. Let me just disable this and see the original one. This is the origin. And if you want to change a little bit of shadows, let's say these are, this is our clip. If you want to add something in the shadows than maybe you just move the shadow tint. You will see more blue and highlights smooth debt side. So you will see the effect even more now, like this or this looks really crazy to this. Before, after, before. After. Just simply play with the highlights, play with the shadows, apply the alert and change the temperature, change that tend, you will achieve any kind of look with this. It's pretty easy, right? 20. How to use Sound effects: Now let's move on to the sound effects. So I wanted to show you this video, this intro, only with the sound effects, without any music and listen to this one how it sounds, because it plays a big role in making the video. Like next level, sound effects is like a bridge between video and music. So when you add the sound effects, it looks like this song is just made for this video. And you just like, how should I explain? Just see this video and you'll feel it. Whole CSV. This sounds really amazing to me. How to apply sound effects. Well, it's pretty easy. These are all the different layers. Wherever you listen to, maybe apply a lot of bushes to when you're just doing a speed RAM. You can apply Lucius. If you are in the jungle, you can apply the general tone effect. If you're close to a river, you can apply. There were sound effect. If you're using a drone shot, maybe use any wind bush. So these are all the different wishes you can use according to what you feel. Sounds good. So if we go here, let's say listened only one. So you just masking it from one clip to another, Zoom like that. So how do I apply the sound effects or use the constant power? And if I delete this, so you can apply shift command and you'll get the constant dissolved. So it will start slowly 0-100. Or you can just create a point using Command and click and just slide it down to zero. So minus thousand DB back to zero. So that's how you can do that. So here I used the original sound. One last thing is to make it even more cinematic. I use the adjustment layer. Here. I have created a new adjustment layer and I've applied the crop effect. If you will see that if you apply the crop here with the top and bottom is 12.5, you can use it even 13 value. 21. Summary of this Editing Breakdown: That's the complete breakdown of dire Dubai intro video. And now I think you can apply these techniques in your videos also take some time. Just go through this video again from start to end. I know that I explained it pretty fast, but if you will see that video again, you will understand it better. Like how I've used it and then see my original video and then go frame-by-frame and then see this tutorial. You will understand a lot. And then that's how I have learned it. Watching other people videos from the time of practiced a lot. And that's like after a certain amount of time, you get your own ideas that how you can, you don't create these effects and transition, how you can come up with different techniques. Yeah, that's all I wanted to cover in this video. Let me know if I missed anything. In this one, we can talk more in the comments and Lepanto anymore topics you want me to cover. If you have any specific videos you want me to break down, I'll do that. I'll see you in the next one till then. Take care. Bye bye.
