1. Introduction to Class: What is up everybody
in this class, we're gonna be
learning how to use OBS Studio to record
our face, our camera, or audio for games,
for our selves, for YouTube, for Skillshare, whatever you're going
to upload it to. On top of that, we're gonna
be learning how to use Da Vinci Resolve to
edit those clips, edit those videos, put
them together exportable, get them ready for YouTube or, or wherever they're gonna go. And the final thing we're
going to learn is how to upload to YouTube itself. Okay guys, we're gonna go
ahead and hop into the video.
2. OBS Studio - Recording: What is up, everyone? In today's video we are
going to go over how to record yourself and your screen, your audio, your camera, all that kinda
stuff to be able to make videos for YouTube or maybe just Facebook or Twitter or TikTok or whatever it is that you're using
your video four, we're gonna be using the
OBS project program, The OBS open broadcast software. Obs Studio is what I call it. When most people call it. You can use this
software to record your voice through a microphone,
through your camera. Or you can use it
to record audio from your computer itself. Or you could maybe
if you wanted to, you could play the audio from your computer and
not record that, let your microphone recorded. If you wanted to do
something like that. You can record your screen. You can record either monitor
if you happen to have two. There's a lot of stuff you
can do with this program. And the best part about
it is that it is Free, Free, Free, Free the best price. So you're going to just
go ahead and click on whichever one that
you need to download. I'll be on Windows. So this is the one that I'll
be using already. Have it downloaded.
I'm going to go ahead and drag it
to this monitor. Now if this up here
looks a little weird, it's just because it's recording the screen that it's
on and it's doing that mirror in front of a
mirror effect. Down here. You're not gonna have
any of these down here. Basically what you're
going to want to do is go ahead and click this
plus sign here. You're going to want the
audio input capture, audio output capture. Let's see where's the other one? Display capture and
video capture device. If you're using a camera
and audio input capture is only if you're
using a microphone. If you just want to record
your gameplay and not record your voice or your
face or anything like that. And you can just use
audio output capture and display capture
and you will be good. The audio input capture. When you use select that one, you'll want to check
the little bubble here. You can see make sure you're
selecting the right one. And then you will just
click on this box down here and then click Okay. For the next one. Audio output capture,
you will select, Add Existing, select Desktop
Audio and click okay. Display Capture. You will not select
Add Existing, you'll just leave it as it is, and then just click Okay. If you are using a camera, then you will select
video capture device. I'll go ahead and
show you this one. I'm going to remove it. We're going to select the video capture device right here. You'll just leave it
as it is as well. And you will click Okay. You'll be greeted with
this screen here. Make sure you've got the
right camera selected. Hello. Then you will just click. Okay. And if you don't want this
screen as big as it is, you can grab these little
top parts up here. You can drag them down and you can shrink it down to
whatever you want it to. If you're playing a video game, I would imagine you
would want it somewhere around to this size
in the bottom corner. Now if you don't
want it this big, then you can right-click
your box here. Go to transform, edit transform. And you can crop the
picture down here. So I'm going to
change this to 400, names, this one to 400. I'm gonna change this one to a 100 and this one to 100 as well. And I click Close. And now I've got this
much smaller box that's going to cover up a lot less of the screen when we're
playing our video game. Supposed to go ahead
and open up fortnight. You can check it out. And my face is over here
in this bottom corner. And so now you can go ahead and play your game,
record your session. Now, if you're going
to want to record, then you'll go down here. Let me move my face up here. Actually let me go ahead and
just hide my face again. The basically, if
you go over here, it's going to say
start recording on recording as we speak obviously. But it says Start
Recording normally. Now, if I was to select Stop recording and you want
to go find your video. I'm going to use this
screenshot here to show you is this
Start Recording. Once you click it and then
you click stop recording. Then if you look down here, you will see where it is saved. So it saved under
your C drive users, whatever your desktop name is, Videos and then the name of the video that was to go
there on my computer. I can show you this. You'll have something that
looks something like this. This is actually the video
I'm recording as we talk. It's the one that has the
most recent time and date. And all of my previous
recordings from other stuff is just under
your seat drops is C, Users, metric and Lena, and go to videos. And
then here we are. This is the one
we're on right now. So if you're wanting to make videos from your video game
play to upload to YouTube. What you can do is you can use this, record, your gameplay. And then once you're done, go ahead and click
stop recording. After you've clicked
Stop Recording, go find your video. And we will open up
the next program that you're gonna be using.
3. DaVinci Resolve - Editing: With this program, this
is how we're going to edit our videos. We're going to put
together all of our different videos that we recorded with the OBS
Broadcaster Software. And we're going to use its
own black magic design.com, and it's DaVinci Resolve 18. So what you're going
to want to do is go to the da Vinci resolve 18, professional editing,
color effects and audio. Post it down here, you've got free download now. So what you're gonna wanna do is go ahead and download this. Once you get it downloaded, you're going to want to
get everything set up. It's not hard. You just go through
the basic setup. I won't be going through
that because it's not a very difficult you will, you'll understand it as
soon as you get into it. So basically, once
you open it up, let me minimize this one. Going to open up
Da Vinci Resolve. You'll begin to see a
screen that's like this. It's just loading, just
wait just a minute. It looks like I have
an older version. You'll be greeted with a screen that looks something like this. This has all your
other projects. Yours will just have
the one over here. But what I'm gonna do is
click New Project down here. New project, I'm
not going to name, I'm just gonna leave it untitled project one click Create. And now you will
have this screen. So it may look a
bit overwhelming, but I promise you that it
is simpler than you think. Basically over here, there are no clips in the media pool. What you can do is import media. You'll go find your
videos over here and grab whatever video that you're
wanting to click wherever your videos are that you've
been recording for with OBS. This is the first one I
recorded for the EOPS part of this tutorial and this one
will be for DaVinci Resolve. So I'm just going to grab one of my videos from destiny two. And I'm going to open it. And I'm going to click Don't
change frame rate because I would rather not
leave it the same. It'll load, give it some time. Isn't over here in this area. What you're gonna
do, want to do is just drag it down here. And you'll see it do this
little thing right here where it's popping up over
here, let go of it. Your video will
appear right here. I'm going to mute this right
quick so I can talk over it. Click Play. You'll be able to watch your video and watch it. Go through here frame-by-frame. And you'll see how long your video is if
you check up here, eight minutes, seven seconds. And you can just
kinda look at it. And so this is one
of the clips if you wanted to cut out
this loading parts. So right now I'm
loading into the mat. That's a PvP mode. We'll wait just a minute. You'll see that it's loading steel iron and showing
off all the characters. If you don't want any
of this stuff up here, all you've got to do is pause
it at the stop button here. I'm going to drag it
to where I want it. Show me, grab this little
bar right here, this one. And if you see your mouse,
it's going to turn it into these two little arrows
to the left and right. Drag it to where you want it. So the match looks
like it has started. I'm going to just
start right here, right before we get
really going into it. You're going to right-click
wherever you want it, wherever this bar is. Just right-click
and click Split. What this is gonna
do is gonna cut your clip into two parts. You don't want this first
part is to select it, right-click it and click Cut. Now you're not going to have
your loading screen anymore. And the very start
of your clip is just gonna be you running into there. It takes some time to
load, so give it a second. And it's going to
show you running into thing playing the game and everything getting into it. And you don't even have to make your viewers sit through
all of the loading. You can go ahead and click stop and say you want all
of your recording. But maybe there's
this really bad part where maybe you just did really bad in the game and you would rather
not everybody see it. So what you can do is if you don't want
everyone to see you mess up or something, if you wanted to only record. Whenever you defeat an
enemy or something, you can just split it
right before you die. Rep for you lose, rapped before whatever thing
you don't want the viewer to see us get to where
it's just past it. Split. And then you can click the
part that you didn't want, because now you've
got before and after, and then you've got the
part you don't want. Right-click that and cut it out. Now you don't have the part that you didn't
want anyone to see. And then the same thing
for the very end. If you would rather not
everyone's see all of this extra loading and stuff where you forgot
to turn off the camera. Just bring it all the
way back to the end of the match into the game
wherever you were. Since your team want or you can go ahead and
just right-click there, split it, grab this, and cut it. And now all I have left is the Beginning as soon as
the match started, a cut out all the parts
that we're in, you know, at died or were I just didn't do well or maybe there
was something on my screen I didn't want
someone else to see. Then down at the very end, all you see that remains at the end is just the
victory screen, the end of the match,
you no longer see all of the loading and memory forgetting
to turn off the camera. When you're done
with all of that, you go and when you're
finished editing your video, to get it to where
you want it to be, you go to deliver. And again, a lot of this can
look overwhelming because da Vinci Resolve is a program
that the biggest movies, movie companies use,
like Marvel has used, has used a Da Vinci
resolve on their projects. And they just allow us
to have a free version. And although is
limited in some ways, overall, it gets you what you
need really, really easily. So over here, you can leave
all these settings the same. Once you get into using it a lot more than you may
realize that you want to change this to him before
or do you want to change this to 30 or whatever it is? You just you just change the settings as
you learn as you go. So you, whenever you are
ready to render your video, you'll go to Add
to Render Queue, add to Render Queue, click that. It's going to give you
this little pop-up and it's going to tell you
where you're saving this. And let's just say I want
to save it to the desktop. So what I'm gonna do
is change the name of it to tutorial. On even know if I
spelled that right, but Save, it's going to pop up over
here into this corner. And it's going to say
Untitled Project Online one. And then you'll see the
directory right here. And then down here you'll
see the name of it, tutorial dot MOV, because
that's the file type. When you're done with
that, you'll just go ahead and click render all. Slap that button. You'll wait for it. And it's going to show
you how much time is remaining and the percent
that it has finished. When it is done, it will this will
turn green and it'll say that it is done and you
can go and watch your video. So we're going to wait
for this to finish. When the video is
finished recording, you will see that it's completed
in however many minutes. And if you wanna go find it, just minimize this
and you'll see the video on your desktop
or wherever you saved it. You want to watch it, you
just double-click it. You'll be able to watch herself play the recording and
you'll see your edits. Anything else that
you did in the video, you'll be able to check it out. It's going to close
this one now. We're gonna go ahead and
get into the next part. So now that you've
got your video, you know how to
record your video, you know how to find your clips, you know how to put your
clips into DaVinci Resolve. And now you know
how to edit it a little bit and Da Vinci and
how to render dementia. So now that you've got
your finished video, we're gonna go ahead
and just go to YouTube.
4. YouTube - Uploading: Okay, so for the
YouTube portion of this guide will not be going over the how to create
YouTube channel, but instead, I'm
just going to show you how to upload your video. So if you go up here to Create
and click upload videos, you'll see this screen here. You'll go ahead and
select the files. And you will click
on whatever video it is that you're
wanted to upload. Click Open, wait for it. You will see this screen here and it's
uploading the video. Your thumbnail
options are loading. And it'll put the
title of whatever your videos named so you can
name it whatever you want. Tutorial, video. Select the right spelling there. Put yourself a description, video or skill share. But whatever it is you
want for your name, for your title, for your
description, whatever it is. I believe YouTube recommends
that you actually use proud about 300 to 500 words for your description
and your titles around, I think seventies
what they prefer, but you can go up
to 100 characters. Thumbnail, definitely
make your own thumbnails, but you don't have to. Once these load, they're going to auto-generate you
some thumbnails. You can click on those and
just use those instead. But there are plenty
of other programs. You can use Microsoft
Paint if you want to. Create your thumbnails,
whatever it is, would recommend
creating your own. Instead of just using these, you can select a playlist
if you want to use those. You select if it's
made for kids, if it's not made for kids, you go down here. If it includes the sponsorship, you'll check your
check this one here. And you can add your tags, skip all this and you
go down this way. You can select
what your game is. If you're in the
gaming category, you select whatever
category you're in. And when it is finished, you'll be able to go. You'll be able to see your video and all
this kind of stuff. You gotta next. I'm just gonna go and
select this go to next one is not done yet, but you can go ahead and
go to your next thing. You're going to
add an end screen. You just click Add here
you select your format. This says import
from latest video. One video wants
subscribe or playlist. One subscribe, two videos. One video when
playlists when video, when platelets one subscribe. This different stuff that
you can click on to. This is the one I use. This is the format I use, like you can move these around. So if I select this default one, I can move this around
and moves around like your profile picture,
you can center it. Good because it
has this grid that you can just line
everything up on. I prefer to just use this one because it has everything where
I want it already. Now, you have your face is going to pop up here and over here. You can change this to video
for best video for viewer. Or you can choose
a specific video if you want to send
them somewhere. Very specific. This down here is the length of your
video and everything. These bars are when the subscribe
or profile link pop up. And this is when the video over here pops up the
recommended video. And if you watch your
videos slowly like this, then you'll see your
face pop up over the video and then you'll see
this pop-up over the video. So if you have something
on there and you don't want it to cover up the video that you can move these around wherever
you want them. Some people like to
do it like this. There's a bunch of different
things that you can do for how you
want this to look. If we go to the next page, this one is just checking if there's any copyright issues. It'll tell you yes or no. Usually you're fine as long as you've not posted anything
that's copywritten. K The last part, this is where we're
going to publish your video so you
can make it private. If you just want to make it private video
just for yourself. Maybe you want to share
it to a group of friends, but you don't really want
the whole world to see it. You could do
something like this. Same thing with unlisted, I believe you can anyone with the video link
and watch your videos. Same thing. So really
these are very similar. Private is you invite specific
people to see it unlisted. It's like you can send it to your friends and you
could tell your friends they can send it to whoever, but people won't be able to
just look it up on YouTube. And then public is you can just publish it immediately as
soon as it's finished. Instead, Premiere is the one where you and your
viewers will see a time likes this video is going to go live in
30 minutes or something, or on this day. And so you can you and your viewers can schedule a
time to watch it together. Yeah, that's just kind of
a cool thing you can do. I don't ever really do it.
I prefer the schedule. So you select your day. So if I will select today and then if I want it
to go live at 5PM, which is one of the
recommended times. Five PM and 12 PM are the two recommended times
to get the most views. At least that's what I've read. It might be different. Where do you live? But for me, this is
the typical time. Then I will just you're, you're basically done and
you just click Schedule. Soon as it's done processing
and checking and everything. Your video will go live at five PM as long as it's
done with this stuff. Anyway, guys, that's gonna be it for this portion
of the tutorial. I'm not actually
going to save this. I'm just going to close it
and get rid of that one. But go ahead and delete forever. Anyway, guys, if
you found this to be helpful in any kind of way, if you found it to be useful. If you're going to use
this guide to publish your own videos to
YouTube or TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter,
any of these places, definitely, definitely
give it a shot. If at the very least
you just want to make little montages for yourself, then by all means, go do that. Creating montages just for
your own personal enjoyment. There's a lot of fun. I did that in the past. I played a game called
Titan fall too. And I loved zipping
around the map, making all these cool
clips and everything. And I would just sit
down and I would make a montage of a lot of the
cool stuff I would do. And it's definitely
a lot of fun, at least for me, it is for the project. What I want you guys to do is
open up your favorite game, open up whatever it is
that you're wanting to do. I don't care if it's a
video game or whatever. But just do something, record yourself doing it
rather at your face and your voice and just post the video and just
let us check it out. Maybe make a YouTube channel
and send us the link. Will gladly go check it out. Um, yeah, so that's the project. Just found a game that you like. Jumping that game,
recorded, record yourself, record your gameplay,
post a video to YouTube. Post the video here
for us to check out. And we'll have a discussion about it and give you
some tips and tricks. Different stuff
that you can do to maybe push your video
a little bit farther. Anyway, if you guys
have enjoyed the video, it'd be cool if you
left me a good review. It. If you left me a follow, whatever it is, I just
appreciate your viewership. And anyway, it's
been read, Patrick, and I will catch you guys
in the next guide piece.
