Hi I'm Greg. I'm a South African Canadian Travel Videographer aka Global Citizen. I first got into video filming with a sharp camcorder in high school making my own short films and tennis video and editing on a VHS. In 2011 in Simon Fraser University (Vancouver Canada) I rediscovered my love for video while filming an earthquake hiphop safety video for a Media Course.

After I graduated from Simon Fraser University (BA Communications) in Vancouver Canada I went on to pursue a successful IT career working 13 years as an IT manager. I went onto to complete my MBA in Technology Management SFU and found my Entrepreneurial inspiration to start my own travel video business in 2011 during the DSLR video revolution. I sold my downtown Vancouver Apartment, bought an iMac, a Canon 7D, and... See full profile

Transcripts

1. Travel Video Intro: Hi, my name is Greg Kong. I'm a Canadian content creator, digonomad travel videographer of over a decade. I started my working holiday in Taiwan in 2013, but before that, I started traveling in 2011 with a Cannon SOR. As time went on, I accumulated gear from drones, action cameras, 360 cameras, you name it. So I'm going to introduce you to different gear to help you get high production quality video, but we're also going to introduce you to other gear like microphones that will help you level up your entire production game. As well as being able to produce high quality content, we also want to help you produce content for social media or whether it's to monetize on your travel videos. I'm going to share my experience of over a decade on how to do that. We're also going to help you take that footage from your camera over into the computer into post production. And introduce you to different programs that you can process that footage for short form content, whether it's Instagram, Facebook stories or longer form content that's going to live on YouTube, or even if you want to monetize on your footage using a stock footage agency model, or maybe you want to sell direct. Look forward to teaching you in the course, if any of this interests you. 2. Travel video Essential Accessories: Okay, so accessories, part two. So these are actually essential accessories as a digital nomad, as a travel videographer that are going to make your life a lot easier. Things like having a SD card reader. There's a lot of laptops these days that don't have enough ports. So having a memory card reader, a USB three Hub or USBC to USBA converter, these are all great to give you more ports for more devices. I also like to travel with several external hard drives. Currently, I have the four, five terabyte USB three external hard drives. So these are large capacity, not too expensive and fast enough to video edit from. And recently, they've got the newer SSD external hard drives. I have one by Samsung T seven. So this is a 500 gig hard drive that's more higher performance. If I want to video edit four K footage directly from that SSD, that is okay. So that's a really essential accessory. You've also got accessories like ND filters for your camera lenses. If you want to shoot during really bright conditions, those can be useful as well. Every digital nomad needs to have a Power bank to power your devices, whether it's your smartphone, whether it's your headphones, et cetera. So definitely pack in a Power bank. It's good to have a charging plug that you can just connect any USB type of cable and charge up. Another great accessory to have is an HDMI cables. So you can connect your laptop to a monitor to make it easier to work or a TV, which uses an HDMI connection if you want to work from there or watch the movies, et cetera, is a really handy accessory. A couple of other important accessories I like to travel with include a mouse pad, just really useful for getting your mouse to work. It doesn't work on all services. Having a mouse and a keyboard is also useful because if you're video editing and if you ever use a track pad on a laptop, it's look I just strains your fingers after using it for a while, and you're more productive using a mouse. Same goes with the keyboard. Me comfortable to type on. You can type faster rather than using the laptop keyboard. So hope these accessories give you some ideas of some additional gear you can travel with. And I also will include my travel video gear PDF, a long list of gear that I travel with to make me productive while I'm traveling. 3. Travel video gear: About ten years ago, SLR cameras like the Cannon five D Mark three, and then eventually Canon five D Mark four were the popular cameras all the time. But technology improves, and then we entered the Merles camera era that could take great videos as well as great photos. They were a slightly smaller form factor. They offered improved technology like four k resolution with higher frame lights, the ability to use an electronic viewfinder. So in bright conditions, you were able to expose your composition or your subject proper and technology is going to continue to improve. Right now, we have cameras like the Sony A seven S three. A lot of YouTubers and vogers and content creators like myself are still using the Panasonic GH five. So cameras are going to continue to improve. So it's important to keep up with your camera body technology, whatever your primary camera is going to be. Now, the advantage of having these types of camera bodies is that you can attach various types of lenses. So lenses are very important to get a very different type of look. Right now, I'm using a wide lens that's a Sigma 18 to 35 F 1.8, and you can attach various accessories to the lenses. I have a Voltrox lens adapter. To my sigma lens that allows me to use it for a Panasonic camera body because it's actually designed for a cannon camera body. So these types of lens accessories will allow you to get more light into the camera that allows you to film during lower light conditions at nighttime. And when you're filming in the daytime, it can help you get more bouquet, which is the depth of field, the blurry background, the desired cinematic look. So it's important to not only focus on the camera body, but also the lenses. It's good to have various types of lenses for different types of situations. Wide lenses like 18 to 35 are great for getting landscape, if you want to get mountains or a wide scene. But if you're going to be filming wildlife close up or flowers or animals, maybe you want a telephoto lens, those longer lenses, which are good for those situations. Personally, myself, I like to have a mid range lens, which is great for just traveling. You don't have to take your lens off. But sometimes you want a prime lens, which is usually a lens that's just a fixed focal length, but usually the advantage of that is that you can get lower aperture, which is a lower F number, like a 30 mil F 1.4. So those types of lenses are really great for getting a very low aperture and nice look to your subject. The 50 millimeter lens is the most popular 50 F 1.4 F 1.8. Those are great for kind of a popular portrait focal link. So we got the camera body. We have the lenses, and then you also need to focus on audio if your goal is to create logs for YouTube or maybe even YouTube videos like this, for example. So there's various types of microphones. Right now, I'm using a road go, which is a wireless microphone. The quality of the audio is good, but you can get better five microphone, which is a bit more bulk here. You've also got people that use shock on microphones, which are good. Road is a company that makes some really good lavalier and shotgun microphones. Now, the problem with shock on microphones is that you need to have shotgun mic really close to your mouth. The advantage of the mic that I'm using, which is a wireless live is I've got the freedom of movement. It's wireless, and it's great for logging and just having freedom of movement. Another element you may want to consider is having additional lighting. So if you're in dark or low light situations wherever you are, it's good to pack a LED light in your backpack, or you can even just use the flashlight on your smartphone to give you an additional light source. So there's a lot of different factors to consider. I'm going to put a list to some camera gear you want to consider just note this is always going to change. And in the next video, we'll talk about other types of cameras like drones and action cameras, 360 cameras that you may want to consider to add additional video content to your channel or social media platform. 4. Travel video secondary camera's (drones, Action Cams): Okay, so we spoke about primary cameras and lenses and audio. In the last lesson, we're going to be talking about secondary cameras. So secondary cameras can function as their primary camera. But we're referring to cameras like drones, action cameras like GPs or 360 cameras like GoPro fusion, or maybe it's a Samsung 360 camera. These cameras are good at one particular thing. LG Ps, they're good for their durability. They're small size. You can bring them underwater. And typically these cameras have a weakness because they have a wider lens. You don't have an attachable lens, so it's hard to really crop in and zoom in. The audio is also not that great because they used to be put in external case. So the audio just sounded horrible with them. That's slowly changing as GoPro is removing the case. They've added a durable body. So the audios getting slightly better. You can attach some accessories to that. But I find that cameras like Go Ps are good for particular scenes like maybe if you're doing some dirt biking or you're going speedboating, or you're going underwater. Let's talk about 360 cameras. So obviously, these cameras can capture a 360 experience. And to the viewer, if you're watching on Facebook or YouTube, the viewer can change which way they're looking at within the video, which is super cool. But it's really hard to get a proper talking video if you want to do a vlog style type of scenario, but it's good for maybe Instagram if you just want to show something in a different way. The other type of accessory camera is the drone which has really become popular in the past five or six years. You've got DGI, which is leading the pack. They started off with the larger phantom models, and as time has gone on, they've built the Mavic drones like Mavic Air, now Mavic Mini, which are getting smaller and smaller. And the fly time, the battery, the technology, the camera sensors are getting better. But alone with the drone, it's not enough if you want to have a flog style video because these cameras are going to be flying from the air. The audio is not going to be great. And there's limited capability for these cameras to zoom in right now anyways. But they're a good complement to a primary camera, like a mirrorless camera, Panasonic GH five, where you can get different angles. So that's my perspective on these types of cameras, action cameras, 316 drones. These are great for supplementing your primary camera to get different angles, a second angle or capture a certain scene. 5. Tripods and Gimbals: Alright, let's talk about tripods and gimbals, specifically with travel videos. I think it's useful to have a tripod, especially if you're doing a video and you want to just talk, and you don't have someone to hold the camera. It's just great to sit the camera on top of the tripod, and you can do your thing. You can talk. Um you can teach, et cetera. Gimbles are in your type of accessory. You've got different models. You got gimbles with tripod legs, which are also useful. They can function as a tripod. But the gimbals, you can walk around with, and they give you stabilized moving video, which is super cool. So you can get gimbals for your smartphone, which are super convenient because you can get higher quality video, and you have the advantage of having that video on your phone ready to share to social media. So we've also got Gibbles for our SLR and mirrorless cameras for a higher production quality. It takes more time to get them out to the Internet because you have to process them and edit them on a computer. But they can give you really high quality video. They are a bit heavy to carry and a bit more inconvenient. But I myself, I use the Digi Ronan S for my Panasonic GH five. And these allow you to get different types of videos that we didn't have before. For example, walking tours or virtual tours, where people basically they just walk around and they just record the background, sounds, and noises of whichever city and country they're going to. And some of these videos are doing really well on certain YouTube channels. So you definitely want to consider a Gimble or tripod depending on the type of video or channel that you're trying to create. I experimented with a small size gimble for the phone, for social media. They also have the larger gimble. Usually, you can use these for events, corporate events, which are very popular like weddings or maybe at some type of event where you want to get a more exciting type of video than just putting it on a tripod. Back a decade ago, I put my camera on a tripod every single time, but that takes time to mount and set it up. It takes up a lot of space. And the video that you get from a tripod can be pretty boring after just looking at it for a while. But a tripod definitely has a place for talking hat videos or time lapses, et cetera, or even motion lapses. 6. Why I upgraded from the Panasonic GH5 to the GH6: So one of the reasons why I upgraded to the GH six was because it's been five years since 2017, and I believe that is a lot of time in a tech focused product for a lot of innovations and new technology. And I wanted that extra visual quality when it comes to my online courses and my YouTube videos. So I'm actually filming with the GH six now because before I was filming with the GH five, showing my GH six camera. So hopefully, you'll be able to see the visual quality difference, some of the dynamic range behind me. You should be capturing a bit more of the highlights, the detail from behind me. I've noticed sometimes with the GH five that a background will be blown out. Especially if it was Blet. So what are some of the direct competitors and the technical specs that I left out. So I'm actually going to refer to it because we're going to get pretty technical here. The Panasonic GH six has a 25 megapixel sensor with parallel readouts for improved dynamic range. I mentioned the built in fan for unlimited recording and a stabilization system rated to 7.5 EV. It also has full sensor anamorphic shooting. And let's look at some of the direct competitors to the GH six. Of course, we have the Sony A seven S three, which is full frame. It's more expensive, and it has a whole different type of lens ecosystem. So the GH five s two features no dual native ISO or dynamic range boost mode. And no ProRes or no 5.7 K, no cooling fan. And, you know, for the price, if it's 1,500 to 1,700 US, you might as well pay a little bit more to have a new product. Some other competitors to the GH six include the black magic pocket camera, six K P. This has a larger super 35 millimeter sensor that can capture six K video in raw format. However, it lacks auto focus, image stabilization and weather sealing. The Sony FX three is another competitor. It's a compact full frame cinema camera that can shoot four K up to 120 frames, similar to the GH six. It has fast auto focus, image stabilization, and a cooling system. However, it does not have an electronic viewfinder like the GH six or dual card slots. Another competitor to the GH six is the Fuji X H two. It's an APSC hybrid camera that can shoot AK up to 30 frames, four K, up to 24, 240 frames, fast auto focus image stabilization. However, it doesn't have internal raw recording or full size HDMI ports. So there you go. Those are some of the competitors. The GH six is, I would say, generally, it's a very value conscious product, meaning that it's a good quality. It offers a lot of features, and I believe it still punches above its weight class, just like the GH five did in 2017. 7. Key Rig & Accessories for the GH6 Camera: Alright, we're going to take a look at some of the accessories that we have for the GH six. So first off is the lens adapter. I've got the Voltrox mount adapter, EFM 2.71. So this allows me to connect this cannon lens. To the GH six. Okay. You can also get metabnes. This lens is made for cannon, but this lens adapter is a must have. Okay, next, we have this LED light. I love it because it provides light, but it also has three hot shoe mounts on left and right side and the top. And what that allows me to do is put additional things. So I'm just going to show you an example. I'm actually using this road right now to record the sound, but just so you can see, we can attach it on the side here, just like that. Yeah. So now you can see that we've got the road on the side, and then we can also put this external SSD. So this here is actually a rig. That holds the SSD. So this rig you can purchase on Amazon. It's made by a company called Small Rig. There we go. I can see it more clearly. Here it is. This is a small rig. So this uses a Ha he mount as well. And this is designed to hold this SSD. Otherwise, the SSD is just going to it's not going to be anywhere for it to be fixed. So this is kind of my custom rig. This is how I'm going to shoot out in the field. I might not need to have the audio, and I might not need the light. But if I'm just shooting stock footage, I might just shoot, like, with the SSD on top. But if I'm doing a video in the studio, I definitely use the light and the sound. But for vlogging, I tell you this is pretty heavy. Okay, so those are the accessories that I have. Again, the LED, which has the hot shoe mounts that I use for the road, and I've also got the rig for the SSD. And so if I'm shooting stock footage, I'll probably just have the SSD, which would allow me to record two PRs direct to the SSD. Speaking of which, this is where we're going to go out to the field, experiment and shoot different resolutions. With this SSD on the GH six. 8. Essential Software for Travel Videographers: Alright. Software is really important for a digital nomad and a travel videographer. We've got Cloud software to help us do our task. So we have Final Cup Pro and I Movie, if you want to video edit on a Mac, Adobe Premiere for either system. Personally, I use both Premiere Pro and Final Cup Pro for video editing, sometimes I Movie. Now, there's new programs that Adobe has introduced like Adobe Spark, which is great for creating thumbnails and different types of graphics for different social media platforms. You can even take templates and remix them so you can put out really high quality graphics really quickly, whether it's for social media or even creating a course or an Amazon book cover. They've also got programs like Adobe Rush. If you're new to video editing and you want to create short videos and you're not that experienced, so it's great that they've got some new products that help people that are new to video editing. On the photography side, we have Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop. So Lightroom is great because you can use it on your phone. It's great for just quick edits on your photos to really help it stand out above other people. Adobe Photoshop can do a whole lot more, but it can do most of what Adobe light room C. Now I've got separate courses on each of these pieces of software that I use to create. There's a whole lot of other software tools that I use for my business from email marketing, I use ConvertKit, for live streaming. I use stream yard. And for podcasting, I use Anchor FM and Libson and I've also got a PDF of all the software that I use, if you want to reference the entire list. So just know that there's a lot of different software as well as hardware that will allow you to run your business while you're traveling and on the road. And yes, they do come with the cost, but they also help you be more productive and produce. Lastly, I will mention a screen recorder which is important if you want to create tutorials to capture and record things, I use it so much. So for Windows, I use ice cream screen recorder, paid software, not too expensive, very functional. So I can actually display my webcam feed and my microphone and record screen very useful. And for a MAC, I use QuickTime Player, but there's also companies like Camtasia that will allow you to do that. And Ice Cream screen recorder can also function on a Mac. 9. An Introduction to The Stock Footage Business Model: So the GH six has access to a lot of recording formats, and you can shoot High Resolution, you can shoot really high quality formats with ProRes 422 HQ. And this is a great opportunity for you to license your footage using the stock footage business model. So what does that mean? As video editors, we know that sometimes we need additional footage to maybe mask, hide or just to show something visually that we're talking about as B roll. So there's sites like Story Blocks, Shutterstock and Pawn five that license out this footage for you on their marketplace. So you can put some stock footage clips, maybe. It could be someone eating some Ramen, or maybe you could just show it close up of a particular type of food. It could be travel related footage. Let's just say you're at Bangkok and you're combing the skyline. I've shot and sold clips of all these types. And the Panasonic GH six, because it has these cutting edge resolutions and frame rates, it's naturally it's going to give you an advantage to be able to shoot things that may have been already shot and uploaded, but they're not in this type of resolution quality that previous generations of cameras didn't have access to. So you may want to take a look at it. A good way to get started is you can look at platforms like Pawn five, Shatter Stock, take a look at their requirements, how to become a contributor. If you want to take a deeper dive, you can take a look at my course, just to give you an idea. You can put clips up on these platforms for, say, $50-100 US maybe even more, if it's a drone clip and you can license them, you can keep potentially 50% of the net earnings. So it is a nice side income, and it does have a long shelf life. The videos that you shoot may be still selling five or ten years from now. I have videos that I shot in 2012, 2013, on a cannon ALR in HD, and I'm still amazed that they still sell, even though that type of video format is a little bit outdated in 2023. 10. Adobe Premiere Pro - New York Behind the Scenes Edit: Hey, what's up, everyone? It's Greg Hung here. I'm going to share with you a behind the scenes look at a video I've shot in New York, and consists of footage shot from the Panasonic GH six, a Drone, Go Pro 11. So a mixture of footage here in Premiere Pro. And I'll just point out some things that went behind this video here. So I'm not sure why this is showing like this, but this is my panel that connects to story blocks. So this is a subscription based service. And through here, I can actually look for footage that additional footage that I can browse for music. It looks like it's malfunctioning right now, but when it does work, it is super convenient because I can just look for additional footage to add to my video straight from Premiere Pro. Okay, now it's working, so I'll just show you an example. So if I need additional footage for New York, I can search for video, and you can see here, Wow, look at this amazing clip of Statue of Liberty. I can even get a ProRes version. I can get a nice drone clip. So just adding a few of these clips at the beginning or within my video, if I didn't have time, and add additional production value. So you can see here. I'll just show you the timeline, point your attention to the timeline. Well, before I do that, I just want to show you we can also search for other things. Audio, music, sound effects, so I'm just going to go music. If I want to find some hip hop, do a search, so I can also I can also add music straight into my project. So those clips, those assets get populated in the project panel. So let's just expand that first. So you just get a sense of what type of assets I have in my video. So these GX files, these are GOP clips shot in a variety of different frame rates and resolutions. So these are five K. You can see here 53 12 times 29 88. So I think we're living in a world now. There's a lot of different resolutions and frame rates, but I've decided on a project that's UHD, which is 38 40 times 21 60. So this is a lower version of four K. And I think that's a good future proof resolution to be creating your videos. YouTube does support them, and there's a lot of four K monitors and TVs now. So I think it's time to shoot in high resolutions in HD and also create your projects, at least in UHD minimum. Here are some four K clips, full four K shot from the pass on a GH six. You can even see some five K clips, 5.7 K, because I'm using a lower resolution project like UHD, that means I can actually zoom in, crop in a little bit on these clips and have some room to play with. Here are the clips from story blocks. You can tell these are in HD. That's the one thing when you're using stock footage companies like story Blocks, you got to make sure that you're getting clips in four K if you're going to be using them in a four K project. That's actually something that I didn't account for when I downloaded it. That could actually limit your options. Not everyone has four K. See this here. It's from story Blocks. There's a four K version, and ProRes, so if I shoot PRs clips with my GH six, I would actually just incorporate them in the project. But it doesn't matter if, you know, eventually, I have to create a h264 compress video project for YouTube because it's going to get compressed anyways. I'm using my PRs HQ clips for stock footage because that's where I think I would actually get the value from shooting those clips. So anyways, let's look at the media browser. So here's a look at my video project. You can see I've got an audio track on the bottom there, and let me just mute that so it doesn't hurt your ears. I've got an adjustment layer here. So this adjustment layer applies my lot, my color correction overall for the project, so I don't have to color grade every single clip. And yeah, from there, it's basically just laying down the clips. I got some transitions, use a mixture of footage from different cameras, try to keep things exciting. Each camera has their strengths. The GH six has a 120 frames per second, four K. So I think I've got some of that in this video. The GoPro is awesome for hyperlapses. And then I've also got some drone clips in here. So yeah, I mean, every video projects going to be unique. But some common elements. I have adjustment layer. I try to overlay my main video layer with B role, as you can see here on V two. V one is where I just have the, you know, the main clips with some transitions. And then I like to add a video project with a call to action, likes to scribe, fade out, dip to black, and always good to have a title. So there you go. That's behind the scenes of a Premiere Pro project in 2023, using footage from the GH six, Go Pro 11 and a Deji Mini two drone. Hope you found that helpful. De. Wow 11. Summary & Behind the Scenes Final Cut Pro Edit: Okay, guys, I'm going to take you through one of my current video edits on Final Cup Pro, and I'm going to show you behind the scenes to wrap up this course. So definitely check out that video. So thanks for taking the course. There is a lot into becoming an effective travel videographer and digital nomad from the camera gear, learning how to use the gear. There's a software and everything between the accessories and the whole travel side of things. So I hope you enjoyed this course if you want to deep dive into some of the software that I mentioned, whether it's video editing on Fino Cap Pro, Premiere Pro, or the photography side like Adobe Photoshop or social media graphics using Adobe Spark, I have courses for that. Thanks for taking the course, and I hope you enjoyed it. Hey, what's up, everyone, Greg here, and I'm going to try to go through a video edit in Final Cup Pro for YouTube in under 10 minutes. So I've prep things to save some time. I've downloaded the Live Stream I've done on Elon Musk's birthday, and I've created a new event. And in this event, I have the video file. I've got some music and B roll, and I've actually just downloaded some additional music and B roll, which I am going to bring I'm going to bring into the video. So let's go for it. So there's more than one way to do this, but this is just the way that I personally prefer for a light speed edit. Okay, so I've dragged in all the assets. Now, I got to start the video, so I'm going to right clicks like New Project Elon Edit. It's ten ADP. Okay, so before I start, if you want to deep dive in the final cut, you need to take a course. But this is going to be a quick demonstration of behind the scenes, if you will. So this is our timeline here. And if I want to speed through, one tip is I use L to speed through the scrubbing. Okay, so I use L to speed through the playback. So that's a time saver. Okay. So I'm just going to trim that. I'm going to put the birthday candles laid over top. Happy birthday. All right. So I'm going to use a quick title. I'm going to use social. I'm going to do that beginning? Okay. Okay. So key dates. Alright. Here we go. Crunch is on. We actually already put music in the stream, so I'm not going to add music. So I'm going to go back to my menia. Okay, call the action there, so I want to add a and subscribe there. The world to pull that and then start in the US series. Okay, so I don't want to go too long with that adding some B roll that I got from storyblocks.com. Series of company gaming company Tesla, elect car company. You see the nicker there, $703 per share. He's one of the lgest people in the world. He has started PSC to face Missions to moon and working on doing Mars. Games for that. He's also doing thing on Earth like I'm just simply overlaying B roll on top. I'm placing the B roll where it's appropriate. The humanoid box so called fusses they gave you this year, and trying to take a look at the litter. So those, how can any one person manage all those companies that donate it. So let's take a look. He's start with the box. So let's take a look all those So that's a good break to cut using B. Skip out on your pauses. I'm going to put more B roll to cover up the transition to the other clip. They do humanoid robot and Omar. The robot is this path I think he didn't hear you talking a little bit about how it came about the design and won't build any human. Five foot inches tall five pounds, we carry a maim of five pounds down 5,000 screen or. This is important here. He said, you believe that Optimus is going to be more d plus than Tessa. Okay, so I'm actually going to actually just thought of an idea. I want to do multi screen here to compare So I'm going to make a break. Okay. So I need a break using the Blade tool B. And so I'm going to highlight that. I need to select a source. This could actually function as a good thumbnail. All right. So this one We have to apply. Okay, we actually have to select it over here. Apply. So we got the top right. This is going to be the killer transition here. Top left. We want the robot. Let's see if we can get the satellite there. And then one more with a robot. There we go. Here. Let's make this longer. This is important. All right, so I can actually save this as a frame that I may use for a thumbnail. So I'm just gonna save it to downloads. O Free up space by taking transitions away. Okay, let's skip forward. Okay, that's a good break. Go to press Ata select and then delete it. All right. I'm going to select the transition D goodies in Latin America and those two countries in Latin America, Hi. Okay. The most attention as human running less. So let's actually, I think we can skip right to there. I'm familiar with the contents, so I'm a bit faster. And I'm going to place that transition there. Okay. Doing a soft another one tell me I'm. Okay. Let's skip forward here. Okay, so a child must often dream veins to his parents and often hearing often dream so as a child's muscle another cut and add transition. Birthday. Dentists to maintain. The relationship married. Okay, we had a break in the stream, so I'm going to cover this up with some B roll. That is part as well. Relationships also married to actress. We're going to skip forward because we have time constraints. He also married Africa 17, temp California. Okay, so let's get the B roll of Tesla. I wish it was a longer one. Tezla California Texas Okay, so I'm just going to skip forward here. Enzinga rap. God enjoy. I like my feet is frozen. The s describe and see you in this next one. Bye. We take a look at 50 Zip two these Senter white mouse and these are onlineors So 370 and that can take a look at this un 51 pot of gera that's a wrap. Why join us. Go enjoy. Okay.

And now I'm gonna go transitions. I'm gonna look for the fade. Fade out. First, I want to fade the audio out and then bring that over. I sscribe and it looks like my over now. Okay. Now we're going to put a and subscribe there next one. Bye. All right, so we got title. We have call to action. We got some B roll, some transitions, and now it's time to cut the video. This is a timely video. This is something I don't want to spend a whole day on. So I'm going to go to file, export file. Create a name. It's going to be 1.38 gigs, video and audio, Codec h264, Nick, and save. So that's it. That is our behind the scenes edit for a YouTube video. We don't need to do any fancy stuff like color adjustment because this is a more timely video. If it was a drone video, I'd spend more time on the color saturation, the filters, contrasts, all that stuff.
