Cross platform compatibility, which means it's available for Windows, mark operating system Linux, providing consistent experience across all the operating system. Whichever operating system you have, you can easily use it and it's going to function perfectly. Then we have the intuitive user interface dive is enriched with features that are user friendly, making it accessible for both beginners and experienced editors. Okay, the layout is designed to streamline editing a process without compromising any functionality. It's excellent when it comes to the interface, and then we have the advanced editing capabilities.

And then we have the real time preview and rendering, okay, the real time feature.

Cad Life Rendering Engine. The rendering engine is optimized for performance and delivering faster export time. So it doesn't take time to export videos even though doesn't use the GPU power of system, it uses the CPU power. We're going to learn all that as we move on. And then we have the extensive audio editing. Okay. Deli provides comprehensive audio editing tools enabling users to manipulate audio tracks with precision. Okay?

These are some of the key reasons why you should choose life if you're on a budget. This is the best software for if you're a beginner, an experience user, it is enriched with a lot of features. I think this concludes this class on why you should choose D Life O. 3. Downloading and Installing Kdenlive: Hello and welcome back. In the last class, we talked about why you should choose Dal life. What are some of the features that can enable you? What are some of the benefits that you will motivate you to get Dal life and start using it instantly. In this class, we are going to look at how to get Slife, how to download it and install it within our system. To access life, it's very easy. You can open your browser and just type in Google. You can just go ahead and search Life just like so. And you can hit and enter, and this is the first one, Life.org you can see it over here. All right. Video editing freedom. So it's going to bring you over to this very platform. Now you have the option to go ahead and download the software directly from here. Once you click on this, it's going to download the software. So this is the place to download and it's going to identify for your system, it's going to automatically detect what operating system you're using. Right now I'm using Mark operating system and once you click on this download, it's going to give you the mark version of this D live. Alternatively, if you want lower versions, you can come to download over here. And you can see right now it is available for Windows. You can have stand alone installable. You can see the zip one using Windows. If you have Windows, you can just download directly. Also installed on your Windows. If you have Linux operating system of different types, be it Ubuntu flat pack or app Image, you'll be able to use. You can download that particular version and then use for Apple they have for Intel which is the one I use. So you can just go ahead and click whichever operating system you use, You can download it and just go ahead and install it. The installation process is exceptionally simple and it just click through. It's just step by step and you just install it. The thing. This concludes this tutorial on how to download and install Ten Life on our system. In the next class, we are going to look at how to open already installed Ten Life and create a project within a Ten Life Sultan. Next time, thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. Bye. 4. Opening and Creating a Project: In the last class, we talked about how to download and install Dal life on your system, be it on mark operating system on Windows or Linux operating system. In this class, we're going to look at an already installed Dal Life. How to open and create a project to open Dal Life that we've already installed. You can come to the launch pad over here. You can just click on the launch pad. And if you come here to the top and just search for life, once you put in Dal Life, you'll be able to see it over here. If you can just click to kick start. Once you kick start T life, you'll be welcome to this very platform. Okay, this is life, A brand new Cadle life speech platform. So the first thing you need to do is to start by creating a project, okay? Everything is new here. So you can start by creating a project, create project, can come over here to file and save. Then you can define the location within your system where you want to save it. Let's say we want to save it in this det 2023. Then you can name, maybe sample video editing, right? This one. And it's just defined location. And you click Conceive and you've now created a project. And you can see it over here. Sample video editing. Now another thing you need to define before you do anything within dive is the Project Settings, okay? So you can come all the way down to Project. Over here, you click on Project. You can come straight down to Project Settings. This is before you start anything. Now over here you have to look, there are different kind of things, different kind of setup that you have for the project. When you look at proxy guides, Metaddata project files and catch data, you don't have to touch anything here. Maybe later when you start exporting things, then you start seeing some catch data. But right now, the first thing is the most important thing is the settings. You should stay at the settings and you can come down here and you can see this is HD. You can select full HD, You can select full HD. You can do ten ATP, either 30 frame rate or 25 frame rate per second. For me, I usually go for 30 frame rate, so you can just select 30 frame rate. And you can just come down here, make sure you include video and audio together and then every other thing. Just leave it at default, if you want, you can customize the location where you want to save your project. You can customize the location where you want to save the project. From here, the default is this directory, okay? In Cadle, if you also always find a copy of what you're creating in this folder, if you want to have customizable, you can customize it and you can just go ahead and define the location where you want to save it. You can see allow. You can see allow. And then you can just specify the location where you want to save it and you can just go ahead and save it. Okay? So you can either use a default or you can customize and use it on your own. But first, the first thing is once you select HD, ten TP and 30 frame per second, you can click on Okay. And it requests you that everything is going to change. You can just go ahead and say okay to this. And you can see it at the top here that everything is now changed now to HD ten, ATP 30 frame rate per second. So that is the most basic thing you should look out for when creating a project and when starting opening life. So I think this does it for this class on how to open and create a project within life. In the next class, we are going to look at the general overview of the Dal Life platform. Okay, what is what and why is this here? What are the very what are the functions, why it is being put in this location and what can you use it for? We just get to know everything and why it is there. Until next time, thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. Bye. 5. General Overview of the Platform: In this class, we're going to look at the general overview of the Tal Life platform. When you open Tal Life, this is what you see. We've tried to create a project and we've done the project settings. We've added some project settings. And what you see here is just a complete editing platform of Tal Life. Now to your left, this is where you have the first thing down here. This is the project being, okay? The project being is where you dump all of your media, be it image, audio, or video. You can dump all of them here and they can be visible here. Now you have the option to add in different kind of media. I've just added this one. You can add any media by just coming over here and just dragging and dropping, just like so. You can drag and drop into the media very easily. You can come over here, you can see you can add a clip or a folder if you want to add a complete folder. You can add, you can add color clip, you can add image sequence, you can add titles later. We'll see how to add titles, template titles, and create animation sequence and other online resources. You can download online resources as well, and we then you have other features. Like you can create a folder over here within the same project bed. You can delete an item or you can add tags to the item. Or you can click on this three lines to have the option to increase the view in the media that you have within the project. So this is the zooming effect. You can increase or decrease the thermal view over here, you can decide what to put, what to show in the footage that you've imported. Whether to show the date, description, or rating, or thereabout. You can vary all these from here. And ascending sort by name, duration, rating type, and tone. You can select all these and it'll be sorted accordingly. And then you have the search bar. You can search for any footage of your choice within the tal life, this is project. You still have the access to access the compositions. Later we'll see how to use compositions and some of the start items and other features you have. Effects, A bunch of effects are here. So you access them by just coming to. You can just go ahead and search. You can just go ahead and search for any effect. You'll be able to have access. We have clip properties. Whatever clip you've selected, you'll be able to see its properties over here. All right, so there are a bunch of things. These are undo history, all the history of what you've done within Cadiype. You'll be able to see all the movements, all the additions, all the editings. You see them over here and you can undo or redo any kind of history from here. Now this is the media bin. And next we have the clip monitor. This is the clip monitor where we have a brief preview of what we have. This is, for example, based on this footage, once you select, as you hover over, you'll be able to see the footage, the video that you have on this footage. When you click, you'll be able to see, this is a preview of what is inside. This is the clip monitor. This is what is inside the project being, okay? It's not in the project panel yet, okay? In the project being, it's not in the project panel, which means it's not available yet. Even if you render this, you'll not be able to see anything. So that's project being. There are a bunch of things over here that I will show you as we start and then we have the library. You can create a library of different kind of, you can create folders within libraries and you can add different kind of footage or media within a library. And you can add timeline selection to the library depending and you can delete things from here. Next is we have the project monitor. This is when you drag and drop an item into the timeline. Then you'll be able to have access to, you move the playhead across, then you'll be able to have access to the project Monitor. This is reviewing what is inside the timeline. Okay, so you have the speech editor. These are a bunch of other things which I will show you how to use speech editor and project notes in case if you have project notes, maybe to showcase your preference or your progress or you want to add some effects as you move on. So you can add different kind of notes to help you stay up to date and organized. Now down here, this is where you have the timeline. The timeline is classified according to video and audio. You can see this is track 12 are video tracks, this is audio track. Okay? In each case, you'll see that they are collapsible. You can collapse, and you can collapse all of them. So you can collapse with just a click of the and you'll be able to see them clearly. You have these are video tracks, these are audio tracks, and you can lock and unlock. These are simple features that you can use. Over here we have a bunch of editing features which I'm going to demonstrate to you how to use all of them. This is a playhead. As you move across, you'll be able to see the preview over here, like I said. And then down here we have other features like the effects and composition. As you move on, you'll see whatever effects you see, you'll be able to see the properties over here and time remapping, you see over here subtitles. We learn how to add subtitles within our footage, and then over here you have the other bunch of controls to play around with. Okay, We'll look into all of this just to see how we can make exceptional editing within our footage. And lastly, we have the zoom effect. Okay, zoom feature down here. You can zoom to any length, so we'll be able to see clearly what's in the timeline and you can zoom out. And at some point you'll be able to zoom to fit, so everything now fits into the project so you can see it very clearly and you'll be able to make cuts or edits accordingly. Okay, so this is just a bit about the general overview of the Dal Life platform. Okay, so I think this concludes this tutorial on the general overview of the Dal Life Platform. In the next class, we're going to look at how to import a media generally and manage media within dialyze. Okay, how do we import media and how do we manage it to start creating our own projects? Until next time, thanks for watching, and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. Bye. 6. Importing and Managing Media: All right, hello and welcome back. In the last class, we talked about the general overview of the Dal Life platform. And in this class we are going to look at how to import and manage media within the Dal life. Okay, So to import media, all you need to do is to start by stealing of the project being over here. And if you come up here, so you can click on this small arrow, you can add clip or a folder like I said, you can add a clip, you can just click and you'll be able to navigate within your system wherever you have it saved. For example, I want to add this whole folder of videos. Can you just select and click on Okay? And it's going to import all of this folder. You can see it's just importing everything. Have a bunch of videos inside, so you can see them over here. Whichever one you select, you'll be able to see a preview of it over here. If you click, you'll be able to see a preview. This is the clip monitor that showcasing what is in the beam and it's not in the project timeline, right? So you can see different kind of videos, very fine and powerful videos that we're going to use for this. There are a bunch of different kind of footage, you can see different, can see them of different types. This is how to import videos. Another way to import is you can go back to the folder containing the image or the videos. For example, I want to import this image, I can just drag and drop it over here, and it's just going to come up. You can see I've just imported this folder containing all of these images. So I can just click and you see now I have all of these images. You'll be able to see the review within this very clip monitor. So this is images, you can do that or you can manually create a folder. If you are interested, you can just go ahead and create another folder. For example, you can add a folder within the images if you want or if you want. You can make it independent. And you can see the folder over here. You can rename it if you want. I can call this audio. And once you click out, you'll be able to add things inside here. So let's say we go ahead and open our folder. You can just go ahead open the audio file. If you have any audio, you can just go ahead and drag and drop them directly into this file. Assuming at this moment I don't have any audio. Check here, I think I have it in this tutorial. Let's say I have this audio, this one. So I can just drag anyone, I can specifically drop it in this audio file. Once you click, you'll be able to see that it's imported. So you can see this is an audio file and it's been imported into our media. Basically, this is how to import media into the media bin, or the project being now another way to import it. The next thing is to learn how to import it into the timeline, so we can be able to see the preview within the project monitor. Now to import a media into the timeline. There are two ways to do that. You can drag easily and drop it into the timeline just like so. Okay, just dragging and dropping will drop the entire video. The whole length of the video. Okay, without removing any section. Now, this is the first way to do it. The second way is you can preview it on the clip monitor. You can be able to preview on the clip monitor either you can come over to the clip monitor and you can navigate with the playhead to any location of your choice, Assuming I want this point that the tortoise start moving. So you can just click on letter I. You can just press a letter I within your system and it's going to create an point into your clip. So you can define this movement up to maybe this point you want to capture up to this point. And then you can hit on letter to define the outpoint. Now instead of dragging and dropping the entire clip, you can just drag and drop this. And it's just going to drag and drop that particular section that you have defined. So you can see it. This is the complete clip. But then, so this is the section that you've just defined. All right, so in an outpoint, it's very easy to define. Okay? So you can do that on any clip. You can just select define the point. And the outpoint, you can just easily drag, you can see this web form is just simplifying that there is an audio within this particular track. You can define point and then you can move to another point. Maybe this point and say out point. You can just drag and drop it inside the timeline. Okay, This is the second way. Another way to do it is you can still position your clip anywhere and you can hit a letter V and it's going to and drop it from that point that you've defined as you drag and drop it inside this timeline manually. You can do it using the shortcut keys, or you can do it using these features as well. So the first one is if you define a given selection, for example, here. And you can come over here and say the set zoom in. So you can set zoom into this point. You can just go ahead and navigate to another point. And you can say, set zoom out, okay, to this point. So this is the area or this is the range you want to see. You can just go ahead if you like. Also, you can add to insert it into the project, this particular selected area you can insert it into the project being, once you click on this, it's going to be inserted into this project being wherever you took it. So you can come to this small arrow and you'll be able to see that particular section that you define the point and out point or the subsection of this, okay? Or alternatively, after defining here, you can just drag and drop it here very easy. So this is the beauty of dragging and dropping. You can do that across any media, e, audio or video. You can just dd and drop any media. This is audio. I have drag and drop it. And you can see, we'll be able to see the properties over here. This is the wear form of the audio. And then you can drag and drop images in the same format, same formula, same. You can just drag and drop it maybe across the clips. Okay, In between any clips that you've selected. So you can select this and be able to see the preview over here. And equally, you'll be able to see the preview on the project monitor because that's what you have created. Okay, so basically this is how to import and manage your medium and then add them within the timeline and just carry out a brief preview of what you have in the timeline. Okay, within the Da Life software. So I think this brings us to the end of importing a media. Just take note that you cannot import a media directly into the timeline like we have in other software. You can easily drag and drop media from the folder directly into the timeline. It doesn't work like that in Cad Life. In the next class, we are going to look at how to do basic editing within Cad life. Okay? How do we edit some clips? How do we remove some mistakes? How do we basically construct something that's reasonable within project timeline? So the next time, thanks for watching, and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. Bye. 7. Basic Video Editing: All right, so in the last class we talked about how to import and manage media within the project being and even import part of it into the timeline. And in this class we're going to look at some of the very basic editings that we can make within Cata Life. Okay, so let's say we have these videos and images and even audios that we've imported. So let's say we want to start dragging and dropping, but we want to use the clip monitor in and out feature so we can define the areas where we want to bring in. So for example, you see these are some tourists swimming. Okay? Husband and wife, maybe boyfriend and girlfriend swimming. So we can easily drag and see, this is the point when they enter the beat the sea and then they are swimming and this is the point when they're viewing some beauties underneath the water. You can see these are like two or three steps. This is the entrance and this is the viewing. Let's say we start at the beginning, we'll call this an point. And then we move up to this point, the entrance. And then we can call this an out point. We can easily drag this and drop into the timeline. We can extend it to zoom out so we can be able to see very clearly. Let's move this back. You can see we have that particular section of the entrance. And then we can move a little bit further from here, we can define another point up to this point. Yeah, before they get together, holding their hands up to this point, I can put an out point here and I can drag and drop it here. And then we can move from this point when they hold their hands and create an point here and made up to this point and create another outpoint. Or we can extend up to the end and create another out point and drag and drop. We have three basic sections to this video. We can add as many clips as we want as women. I want to add another clip from here at the beginning to showcase the beauty of the ocean before they even start swimming. Let's select this video. You can see if we try to play it, you'll be able to see this is the bigger picture of the entire sea. Let's say we select from this moment, from this point. Let's select this point as the out intro in point. And then here, possibly up to A as the out point. So we can just easily drag, so instead of us to drag and drop, there's another way you can place the timeline here. And then you can come over here and just say Insert the clip in time line zone. So you can click on Inserting the Timeline Zone, and you can see it's being inserted at the beginning of it all. So it's just going to be inserted. I think this is quite too long. So we can come here, select this point. So maybe, let's say we select the clip. And we can use this a tool because this whole class is about editing. So this is the selection tool, we can use the reso tool, you can see with this red line, you can make a cut anywhere. So you select and create a cut, and right now we've created a cut. So you can go back to the selection and then you can select this whole side and right click and say delete selected item. And you can see now you can move this section. Now to move this main section, we can zoom out a little bit to remove this remaining section. Here we can use this feature, this pec, okay? So you can select and drag. You can see you can drag and move this section if you want to clip it here, you can clip it easily. And if you want to clip the rest also, you can do that using the clip feature so you can come back to your selection. This feature just enables you to do not use the time line zone for any insight. You can disable that from here. And you can see that we have these trucks imported. These are video trucks there, audio trucks. Even though this is flat, because it doesn't have any audio, it's flat. Let me try to import something that has an audio so we can just understand. Like this one. We can select this one to no audio. Let's select something that has an audio in it. Okay. This one. So you can see, we can see the audio form. We can at any given point define you can hear it. Yeah, so let's define this as the point. And let's move maybe up to this point. And then define this as an outpoint. So you can just drag and drop this in our timeline so you can zoom out so we'll be able to see it pretty clearly. This is the audio. You can as well separate the audio and the video if you don't want them connected. So you can write, click and say on Group, over here on group clips. So which means now they can function individually without affecting one another. So you can select this at this moment, I don't want the audio, so you can delete selected item and it's not deleted. You can move this to any point another way in terms of the editing, if you select any property or any clip, you can use any of this feature. This is the Space Tool. This is the slip tool, and this is the recall tool. If you want to know exactly what a particular tool does, you can just sit on the shift key and you're able to see more description about that particular tool that you're selecting if you enable this. You press on the shift key, you'll be able to see the definition and what it does exactly. Okay? You can just go ahead and, and keep playing around with it and see what, and what you can add and what, and what you can reduce. Now another way to edit a particular clip is by trimming. You can trim from the edges. You can come to the edge of any clip until your cosor turns to this horizontal sign. You can just easily drag, you can see now you are deleting or you are trimming from the left edge. This is reversible at any point. If you want to reverse it, you can select and you can reverse it and it's going to bring back that section that you have trimmed. Let's zoom this to fit two projects so you can see everything. You can do the same treatment also from the right hand side. You can just drag. And again, this is reversible. You can reverse it if you're interested. Then you can move across clips. You can move the clips, you can interchange them if you want. You can create clips over here. You can lock a particular clip from editing. If you lock this, it means all the clips that are here, they cannot be edited. You cannot alter anything from here. Even if you try to create a card, it's not going to create any card from here because it's been locked. So you have to unlock it for you to create a card so you can see what that means. Okay, so you can enable or disable a particular video. With this can enable or disable and with the playhead you can move across and you'll be able to see the preview from the project monitor. So you can enable. And then over here you can activate or deactivate a particular track. If you select this, a truck becomes active. And if you select this, track becomes inactive, which means it's not going to respond to any editing when it is inactive. When you select, it becomes active and you can edit accordingly. Like I said, again, this is collapsible. You can collapse them and you can name the trucks by just double clicking. You can name any truck, you can call it truck, maybe this one. You can double click and you can call it audio truck. Very easily, you click out and you fred name your truck. If you want to add a truck, you can write, click anywhere and say inside truck or delete a truck or Thumbinalview. You want to check the views on the terminal. You can adjust the terminal properties from here, okay? So there a bunch of things that you can do and the bunch of things that you can play around with when it comes to editing. So over here again, you can add a trucks, the clips on directly into the timeline. Or you can insert it in between. If you made a mistake you want to insert a particular clip, you can easily use this feature to insert again, if you have any issues, you can always use the shift key or press the shift key to see more definition of what that means. Over here you have more controls, like if you want to do some preview within your video, you want to do a quick preview. You can add previews on you, define the areas you want to quickly preview to see how it's render and see what it looks like at the end of al. You can also do that from here and you can stop the rendering accordingly. Okay, we can enable automatic preview if you want, and you can do that very easily. So this is one of the beauty of using catalyze. It's enriched with a lot of features that you can easily play. This audio mixer you can click to enable it from here. And you can carry out very basic things if you're interested. And this is the subtitle tool. Later I will show you how to use subtitle. Now, another key interesting thing that I want to show you when it comes to editing is the fading in and out as we navigate across through the editing process. Let's go back to the selection tool. Let's say at this moment, let's say we have this tool and we want to create a fading and fade out. Let's zoom this a little bit so we can be able to see clearly. All right, so let's say at this point, whenever you hover over any clip, you'll be able to see a red dot over here. When you click on that red dot, it's going to give you a fed out. Okay? This is possible on videos and an audio. It's just going to give you a fed out. Which means this video is going to just die out naturally into blacks, just like. So now you have the option to play out with the Fed Out feature going to give. Once you click, it's going to give you that fed out. And you can play with the duration of the fed out from here. You can reduce it. If you're interested, you can see now we are reducing it. You can increase it manually. Also, if you're interested, you can see from here if you plays from the full opacity to zero opacity, okay, From 100% to zero. You can do that also on audio. Let's give it a try. If you have an audio, assuming you have an audio truck, you can just drag and drop here and you can create both at the intro and outro. You can go over here, you can navigate to the top, you click, you just be able to see that fading in. You can vary the extent of it. Manually you select, you'll be able to see the control. Also over here, you can manually increase the extent or you can reduce directly. It's available on all of them, both in image and video. This is fed in, okay, this is fed in. It starts from zero black, and then it just naturally goes in and you'll be able to see the view directly onto 100% That's one of the powers of the Fed in and out. It's a very key feature that you have to learn when you're editing. I think this does it on this tutorial on the basics of editing, how to bring in clips, trim them, creating a cart, and using the spacer and other tools I have just for basic editing. Even bringing in the media by defining the in and out point accordingly from the clip monitor. I think this does it on the Torial. In the next class, we are going to look at how to add and manage bureaus within deal. Okay? Bureaus are important because mostly what we deal with is the era where we have the main few Tage but then true the explanation truly tutorial. You may want to have a bureau, maybe demonstrating an image or a video or something like that. And then go back to your main era and then continue explaining until next time. Thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class by. 8. Adding Transition: In this class we're going to look at how to add transitions in between clips. Okay, So in Dal Life, the way we add transitions is completely different from other software like you have to sometimes drag and drop the transition in between the clips and then you have the properties to play around with. But in catal life, transitions are added in very different ways to add a transition, all you need is just to define the media that you want to connect. For example, in this Tittoral, I want to connect this media, and then these two media, I want to connect the two of them. So what you need to do is to take one up, for example. You just take this one up and then you could just use the spacer. You just drag a little, all right. Then you can just select everything. Let's say we select all. Let's select everything. Okay, and just move this a little into the other clip. You can just move it a little bit into this clip. What you now do is you can now look in, in between this clip and this clip, there's one pink dot. Okay, once you click on that pink dot, the transition is being added. You can see it over here. It's a default dissolve transition. You can just try it. Let's play it and see. Can see it's just a default dissolved transition. If you think it's too short, you can increase the duration. You can see it, that's the default transition. But you can increase the duration if you want. You can extend this a little bit more. Then you can select on the transition, come to the top here. Or you can zoom out a little bit, you can come to the top here. And then you can drag and extend it to the end. Okay, So you can now have a full transition in between these. So let's have it. It's quite smooth and it moves to the other one, you can see it's quite smooth. This is one way if you want to adjust what kind of transition, because maybe probably you don't want it to be the default dissolve. You can come over here from the effects composition. You can be able to see the composition truck over here and you have the white method. What kind of wipe? This is the default, none, which is the dissolve. You can insert different ones. You can have this bundle. You have bundle. Let's try a preview, and then you see what we're talking about. This is a preview. Okay, this is bundle. And you can try another other one of your choice. You can see this cloud. And if you try it, you can just see this is it. And I think it's smooth, but I think that bundle is much better bando horizontal, bundle vertical. So let's try vertical. Let's see how it's going to be. So you can see it's really, really nice and interesting, and you can apply it to anyone. You can vary the softness of the occurrence over here. The default is this, so you can keep varying it, and if you want to invert the effect, for example, from vertical to horizontal, you can invert or revert it back. You can do that with some of the selections. So this is the first one. Let's try to add on the other ones. Let's zoom out a little bit, or let's zoom to projects. So you can come over here, select this project, unless we have this a little bit below it. And then over the top one, so you can see the pink dot over here. You just click on it and you see it's been inserted. The transition has been inserted. Now you select. Let's try a preview again. The default is dissolved. You can see it. It dissolves into this number of fish, and it's quite interesting. But if you don't want again, you can just select and come over here and just change it a linear by y, bottom left. So let's try this. A can see it just quickly. The transition is quite nice. And you can try any other one. You can try cuttings and you can just move on. There are a number of them, so you can just go ahead and explore and see which one you can do this one in this case maybe we have to take in this one. Maybe you can take it up and you can bring it in between. Also it just transits in between if you like, you can just come over, it could be from the bottom or from the top any of the clip you can inside the transition in between once the intercepted or they just cross one another just like you can hit from the top or from the bottom one. Once you hover over, you'll be able to see the pink color, so you don't hit from the top one. So let's say we hover over this and you'll be able to see the pink color. So you just hit and you can see the transition had been added. Okay, so again, you can select vary the effect. Let's say we give it something like this. Radial bar. Okay? Matrix Nic article. So let's see what this does. And I think after this, yeah, this is okay. Okay, so you can see the smoothness. Let's play it one more time. You can see the smoothness in the movement. So another thing that I usually add at the end of it all is again, I used to add the fade out. Okay. To indicate the end of my clips, I can just add a fade out. So you can do that across any clip. All right. Like in this one you can see the way it ends. It's just abrupt. Okay. It just ended just like so. But then if you add, hover over to the top. You can see the red button, the red circle. You can just select. And then you just apply a fade out. So it just dies out to zero, just like that. That's a very good transition. Also from you can do that, you can apply that also at the beginning of the clip. Let's come over here and there's inside one. You can vary the length a little bit to this point. And the less video starts from black. And then it gains as you move on like that, you can see the video is starting to come up. Okay, That's basically how to add transitions within clips. It could be within videos or it could be within video. And even images you can select in any image. Let's try one with an image, for example this one. Let's say we want to try with an image, we have this image inserted. So we can just select on this, we hit on this, and you can see the transition has been added. We can just add any transition of our choice. Let's say this save article, and then we select and we complete. This is in between video and image. It's very easy also. It's very possible. So you can see it's just because of the set out. Let's say we have it, let's play on Moti. You can see how perfect it just went off. Okay. I think this does it on this jural on how to apply transitions in between Eclipse within Dallife. In the next class we're going to look at how to add bureaus within Ktallife. Okay, so it's very easy to add bure so we can move from one clip to another. The smooth movement is perfect and it's very, very easy for demonstration purposes. For people who do tutorial related courses, you can easily assign or put in reals to demonstrate some things while you explain in the Er. Okay, so until next time. Thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class, Bye. 9. Adding B-Rolls: In the last class, we talked about how to add transitions within video clips in Tal life. And in this tutorial, we're going to look at how to add roles. So roles are generally important when you're trying to demonstrate a particular concept while explaining on the erroll. And you want to demonstrate or showcase something through your tutorial, you can just showcase it. Usually we have it at the top of the main Er. The main time line or the main track where you have all your clips is called the Errol, and anything that comes above it is called the role. You can vary them. You can vary the position. You can even vary the arrangement. And even you can add different kind of effects. So let's say in this very tutorial we are explaining about this type of turtle. And then maybe probably we want to bring in this type of this one that this one is trying to catch, even though it's an image we can just try to select or we can define the area and then we can just drag and drop it above the timeline. So you have the option to come to the edge over here until your coastal turns to this horizontal sign. You can just drag and trim it. You can trim also from the other edge and you can move it to specify the exact point where you want it to start, assuming I want, while explaining this about this total, this one to come up. But unfortunately you can see this one is not filled up, okay? It's not a 16 by nine ratio, so we have to change it. Usually we'll come to effect. We can search for position, position and zoom this one. So you can drag and drop it as a feature. And then you can see it in effect on composition over here. So you come to size. Usually it's a size I want to increase, so you can drag a little bit. So it fills up, okay, until it fills up the canvass, Okay, you can see. So let's see again, let's play it one more time. So you can see while I'm explaining something underneath this particular total and this other one comes up, okay? And then when you explain about it, and then this, we'll go back to the in total and then we continue. But then for you to have it to be smooth in nature, you have to create a transition. A smooth transition. You can come down here until you see this pink sign. You can just hit on it and you see inserted a transition which you can hold from the edge and reduce the length. Okay, up to this, something like this. It doesn't have to be an abrupt interaction, it's just be a smooth interaction. So you can see it just simply transit to this one. Then the transition out also you have to insert another transition over here. So you can just select and you can move it to the edge. It just translates into the main one. You can see it quickly translates into the maine. Again, in each case, you can select and vary the transition you have. Because the default is a dissolve, we can try this bando horizontal at the outskirt and you can see now it just quickly opens up to the other one. You can continue. This is one way to add a bureau in terms of an image as you're explaining. Now, we can add the same bureau as a video. We can just select and add a bureau as a video. Let's say we go back to the project pin and then we can select this one. As we are explaining or as we are viewing this, you can see that those guys can now come in into the beach and then start looking. So let's say they're in, so let's say we drag this couple and drop them even though they are too long. Okay, They are too long. So we can drag and find a given section of the flow. Let's say they are flowing towards this guy. So let's find this. Okay, let's say at this point, this is point. Let's have our point here, It, letter. And then we can just move on to this point. So we can have our out point over here. And then we can just easily drag and drop. Okay, so we drag and drop and it's going to be as we're explaining about this. Then suddenly this video of them comes up and then it goes back to its continue the explanation. This one also, we can make it smooth by adding transition, so we can come to the bottom and hit on this popular color. And then we can still come to the edge and limit or reduce the length of the transition. Okay, So we can check over here, let's make it bob vertical. And then let's play it so you quickly transit, okay, in. And then we can add the same transition outside, so we can select and reduce the length of it. And then we can change the kind of transition we're going to have. Let's call this this horizontal blinds and less so you can see easily, it just moves in. So this is the power of having roles within your clips. It's very easy and it makes your works appear much more smoother and nice. Okay, so in each case you can have it. So it just transits while you explain. It translates into the next one and then translate to the main work. Okay. So I think this does it for the Torial on how to add rolls into the video footage that you're editing within kettle life. In some cases, you may need to add tracks. Okay. If you want to add tracks again, you can just come over here, I say inside a truck and you can define how do you want to track just one track or two tracks if you want to insert more than one track? And is it going to be above the existing track that you've clicked or below or under it? You can see is it above or below? And is it going to be a video track or an audio track? Sometimes you may have to have both of them, audio track and video track. Okay? Sometimes you have to have one audio track, sometimes you have one audio track also. Sometimes you have to have video track, sometimes audio track only, and sometimes you have to have both of them, audio track and video track. Okay? So you can define the name of the track from here, so before you even go anywhere, you can call this Ro. Ro. Okay, so let's say we have V track, so one audio, one video at the top, okay? So you can see them. Okay, So it's very easy to kind of adding the number of tracks. You have very much controls, like we've explained as regards the activeness and non activeness of a particular track. Okay, so I think this does it on this tutorial on how to add res into your main clips. In the next class, we're going to look at how to add in text and titles. Okay, text and titles within talife are very, very interesting and you will make your work appear much more professional when you add text and maybe with some animation story salt. Next time. Thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. Right? 10. Adding Text and Titles: In the last class, we talked about adding barrels within our clips in Dal life. And in this class we're going to look at how to add text and titles. Okay, so adding text and titles can make our work appear very, very much better. Because texts can send in a lot of message to your viewer when you add them correctly, as captions or as titles in your videos. So to add a text in life, all you need is just to start by coming to the top. Over here, still at the project in, you can come to the top. Click on this small arrow and you can see you can add the title clip. Okay, So you just click and you'll be brought into this very platform. Don't be confused. This is very simple, explain everything over here. You have the Pan tool. This is selection tool. You can use it to navigate around and you can add a text directly using this. You can add a rectangle. If you have, you can add a circle, or you can add an image from an external source, okay? Or you can click on this to open a document or to save this as a template, or to create new title template, or to download an existing template and apply. So what this means is you click on this and you can start typing. So you can just search. For example, welcome to Lanka. Okay. Is an island that I visited. It's very nice. So you can just select and you can do manually adjust the position on your own or you can play around with it from here. And both the width and height, you can play around with them. Or you can come over here to check the alignment. You can align center and everything to be aligned at center. Okay, Over here you have the basic text control features. Like the phone style. You can change the phone styling from here. There are different styles you can check around and just change to any thing like this. You can play around with the sizing if you're interested and bleak a bolt. You can etallize, can underline, you can do all of things from here. The coloration, I intentionally made it to be white, but then you have a much control as regards the color. You can change it to any color of your choice. You can select any color. And it's going to work part, this is because it's underwater. So white color is going to do a good job. And then we have the outline. This is a solid. We make it white, the outline, and make it a little bit yellow. And we can make it red if you're interested or something like something like this is good as Okay, it takes in, you can see welcome to Anki. And then we can add in a shadow if you want. We can add some shadow. And we can vary the blurring nature over here and the offset as well. You can vary it from here, can vary this one also. Okay? And you can align left, right, center, and then the letter spacing. You can come down here and you can make it a typewriter. If welcome to Lana, you can make it a typewriter effect. You can change the frame step. And you can change how do you want the typewriter effect to happen. Is it by character, or by word, or by line can do all that. So let's go by character, go by character, and then you can change virtually a lot of things here. And then as regards the background, you can change the color. Right now, we can change it. If you want to change the color, you can just change the color directly. I think some like blue could do a good job here. All right, so let's say we select blue can see. But the main color, the main background behind the text is check out. Which means it is background less. Okay. It doesn't have, it's transparent. You just can only see the text. Okay? So you can vary the size also from here, so you can add in some animations and patterns if you're interested. We come to animations in detail so you understand what I'm talking about. But then there are other features, text editing features over here. So as regards the background can change the coloration. Show the guides. If you don't want to show the guides, you can show them, use the grids. If you don't want to show the grids also you can show them over here. You can di select or you can zoom to fit. You can see everything to fit. And then you can increase the sizing, also minorly from here. And you can zoom everything to fit, okay? You can make everything here to fit, can fit. You can zoom to fit, or you can zoom to the actual size, or you can zoom to fit so it fits in everything here. Once you're done here, you put in everything you needed. You can just, you can come over here, This is the properties, you are done editing everything. As you gas the text, you can just go ahead and come over here and see Create the title. So you can click on this. You can save and add to Project. Okay, save and add to the Project Saving. You have to give it a name, so it's going to save this as for you, maybe that you can use as part of your brand within your channel or within your business. So let's call this Epic text. Okay, Epic text. And it quickly saves it in the direction where life saves its template. Okay, so clan save, and it's going to save this, and it's going to add it as a text, epic text. And it has added it as a text into our project pin. So you can drag and drop it here, then you caricize it because we want it to cover justice area. Welcome to Lanai. Let's play a preview. Welcome. To Lana. You can see how perfect it is. Then we'll move into this. I think this is fantastic. Welcome to Lana. But the blue color is interfering. So let's remove the blue background. So you can write, click on the text. You can come to Edit Clip over here. So we can come over here and then maybe select this one and say okay to this because it's blue, we can update the title Seven project and it's going to be updated. Okay, You can select, you can come over here and see replace. And it's going to replace with the existing one. All right, so you can see it, it's actually being replaced. Alternatively on your own, you can just go ahead and drag and drop it and it's going to show the same effect that you have across. Let's say we can remove this slit selected item and we can just drag and drop this. All right, so assuming we want to update this text because we don't want the looks. Okay, so you can just go ahead and come over to the text and say a clip and exchange it. For example, the background is what we don't want. We can change the background, click on this, we can give you something like this. And I think we can say okay to this. I think this is okay. This looks much better. So we can just update and it's going to update automatic. So we can go ahead and try it. You can see welcome to Lanka. And I think this color is okay because it's blue color and it's aligning with the C color. Welcome to Lankawi. I wanted to stop here and then we can just drag and drop them. Okay, welcome to Lanky. Okay. Let's say we have another text, Enjoying the rides. Let's come over here and still come to add text title. And then we can come over here, select and say Enjoying the Enjoying the Moment. All right, so you can align center, but because it's the boat, we have to bring it down a little bit. So let's click out and then bring it down a little. You can add any shape from rectangle to saco can add anything. So let's say we'll add this, scdrop it here. Let's say we'll add this even though that doesn't mean anything, but we can just suggest for demonstration purpose, we can just go back to the selection tool and just a drag and drop here. Let's say we like this, we like what we see, so we can just update and then enjoy the moment. We can just drag and drop it here so we can resize it. It's just going to be within the ship. All right, you can see enjoin the moment. Then it flies to this one. Let's say Diving Adventure, Add another text, another title clip, and then we'll come here and say Select Text. We can see Diving Adventure Adventure. All right, so we can click out Resize It and bring it down here. Then we can click and create this. And you can see Diving Adventure. We can just easily and drop it here. We can resize it to fill up the area that we want. Let's say diving adventure here. Then we can see it, okay, the jumping in. And you can see Diving Adventure over here. We can say Enjoying the View, the Sea View. We can just add another text. You can say add another title. And then we can click Sea View. All right. Click and bring this down. You can always create the file, so you can just drag and drop it across this view, okay? You can see everything is now coming up, okay. So you can see enjoying the sea view, okay? So very nice and professional. So you can see over here we can decide to add the transitions across by just heating. And we'll be able to see, we can add simple simple transitions. So welcome to Langkawi and the types typewriting effect and just did this item, okay, so welcome to Lanai. Welcome to Lanai. Then it moves to this. Now, enjoying the moment, the diving adventure, and then we have the Enjoying the sea. Okay, that is basically how to add text. In each case you'll be able to see the different properties, you can always select on any and you'll be able to update. Just right click and say Edit Clip and you can be able to update it over here. All right? Okay. If you don't want to have a background you can, you can just come over here to background and then you can remove the background in total so you can update. And you can see your text is now without a background. When you try to play it here, you'll see that it doesn't have a background. Enjoin C. You can just go to enjoin C, you can see it. All right, so let's say we delete this one and then we drag and drop this. Okay? So we'll just adjust it, we can bring it down. Let's try enjoy the sea. You can see enjoying the sea without the background. Okay, so basically this is how to adding text and play around with it within life. I hope you enjoy this video. In the next class, we are going to look at how to add animations to our text and our videos. Okay, next time, thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. Bye. 11. Adding Animations and Keyframes: In the last class, we talked about how to add text and titles in our video clip within life. And in this class, we're going to look at how to add key frames and animations to add a keyframe animation. Let me show you example. We could add key frames and animations to text and even to videos. Let me show you an example of what I'm talking about. Take a look at this text. Let's say we have this text slide in and then slides down. That's interesting were put in some animations to it. So I'm going to show you how I would slide in and then slide down. I think that's for perfect, but we can use it. You can add any kind of effects that you want. But then to add an animation to a text like this one that is quite plain enjoying the sea view, you have to select the text. Okay, If you have any issues, you can always go ahead. This is enjoying the sea view. So you can see here, enjoying the sea view. You can select and we can come to edit clip. And at this moment I don't want to have any background, so I can select Come to Background over here. And I don't want to have background, so it's going to be zero background. So I could just update. So I've just updated it. So when we try it, you'll see that it is now without a background. Yeah. Very clear. So I want to put in an animation. As it is coming in, I want you to slide in and then to slide down. Okay, So to put an animation, you have to come to the bottom left over here, you can see this pink color, this pink circle. You can just sit on it to put in that animation, that transition that we used to have. Okay? But this time around, it's not going to be the normal transition because we're going to add some things. So you select the transition, you can come over here instead of wipe. You can select and go to slide. You can see slide over here, it is coming from this direction. This is the starting point. And then I want it to stay at the center, okay? You should come in, this is the end point. Should come in. And then it should stay here. You can vary the transparency from here and you can set the composition track to maybe V one automatic case. I usually leave it at automatic, so it comes in from the side and then it stays at the center. That's the effect, I'm going to give it here. All right, so let's play it and see, let's have a preview of what I'm talking about. It slides in and then it stays on the truck. So I want to add another one at the end of it here. So hover over to the bottom right and you can still click. And you see we've added another transition. So you can come over and until our cuso turns into this horizontal sign, we can try to drag. So we have nearly similar size of an exit transition. We can select transition can come over here, we can put it a slide. Also can put a slide. Then right now, the starting point is at this point, because it's already on the screen, I want it to slide down. Once we put it here, it's going to slide down. Let's have a preview. One more time to come over here, and then we can click and see it slides down. Now one effect I want to add is I want to make it a typewriter effect. You can come back to the text right click and go to edit clip. And then we can come over here, select the text, we can come down here. I want to add a bit of a shadow to it. And maybe come down here and add the typewriter effects like we've explained. In adding the text, you have to select whether you want it to go by character or by word or by line, as you saw. So I choose by character and I just opt it. So let's take a look at our final effect on our text that we've just added. Okay, so you can see it comes in okay with the typewriter effect. And then it slides down. All right. So that's one of the perfect things that you can do. So the next thing is I want to show you how to add key frames. Like I said, key frames can be added to text, we can add it to videos, and sometimes you can add it to even give file. Let's try something that can make our animation looks perfect and nice. Let's try something like a butterfly. To get a butterfly, I, I do come to this website Pika by, and you can just search for butterfly. I found this one very interesting and I kind of like it and just go ahead and download it. It's very easy to download with the link in the description also, so you can just get it and download it. Once you download, you can just easily drag and drop it. Let's say from my downloads over here, you can see it. This is the one I'm talking about. You can just drag and drop it into the timeline. So you can see we just drag and drop it. So let me show you what I'm trying to do with this. So as you can see that this is just flying and it's just going to be, keep flying in one place. It's going to stay, it's big and it stays in one place. I want to animate it in such a way I use key frames to fly from this point to this point. Probably come back here and then come back here. So let's try that. The first effect that we need to put is you come to effect over here. And you can just search for transform. And you can see here transform, you can just drag and drop it. Once you drag and drop a transform effect, you can see the dialogue over here and the effect and composition. Truck start and then you can come over here and you notice one thing that when I'm moving my playhead, it is equally moving in the effect and control and equally in the project monitor, it's moving the symptoms, so don't get confused with it. Okay. So we can move across. Okay. Very easy. One thing we need to understand is that the Ge file is too big over here. So we can reduce the sizing to make it a bit smaller. So we can come over here to the size and just drag, this is making it bigger to the left, so we can see now it's a bit smaller, averagely, this is okay. So we can position it, we can change the position in the x axis. We can just drag it. Just select and use your mouse to just move to the side. And then in the wire this can go equally drug and have it to this point. All right, so let's say we have it here and I'm happy with what I have. I need to rotate it so it face this direction or I can make it to stay at this point. Let it fly to this point and then to this point I'm back here. So there's this key frame timeline. I don't know whether it's called key frame time line, so we just call it key from time line. For now. This is signifying the key frame effect that you're going to have. So let's start from the beginning, where the butterfly is at the beginning. So let's add a key frame here. You can see we can click here to add a keyframe. Click here to go to the previous key frame, to the next key frame, and copy and past key frames. These are just simple simple effects that you can master. Now let's add a key frame. At the beginning, we added a key frame, and then from here I want it to fly from here to this point. I'm going to move move my playhead to this point. At this point I want Ber fly to fly to this point. So I can just use my so I can add another key frame or with just that single movement, it's going to add another key frame. So you can see I've added another key frame, and now I'm going to move in the wide direction. So it's going to move up, okay, it's going to come up. All right, so once it is here, now the next thing is I wanted to rotate. I'll face this direction and then fly to this point. So I move my cursor to the next point. Maybe up to this point I wanted to fly here. So I can just go over and select. Then we can add a key frame. All right, add a key frame and then we can come over here and rotate. A key rotation is key flammable, so we can rotate it to first to face here. Okay, so I think facing here is good. And so I wanted to fly. So we move with the axis. Okay? So we use the axis to move. We keep moving it until it gets to that ending point. All right, we just move it to the end. All right, this is here. If you like, you can have a preview. But then I want it at the end point to fly back to the original position. We can come back here and add another key frame from here. What I want is let's create another key frame. And I want it to rotate and face this direction. Rotation, this Tim face here. I wanted to fly back here. So we can just go ahead and okay, so it's going to be in the negative direction. In the is also should come down So I can come down to this point. I wanted to come back here in the last keyframe. So let's have a preview of what we've just done so you can understand what I'm saying. It's going to fly from here to this point and then to this point, and then back to the starting point. It is flying to that point and it rotates back to this point and then back to this point. I think you get the idea. The key frames are actually there to animate the object or the video or anything. If you haven't tutorial also, you can use that to zoom in out of different features and then to be able to move in different forms. If you like, you can always come here if you want to see the key frames clearly, you can see, you can zoom in and you can zoom out. So you can be able to visualize all the key frames. You can rotate, change the rotation either from the center, or you can rotate from any angle of your choice. And you can move the key frames. Right now, it is moving slowly. If you wanted to move fast, you have to move the key frames a bit closer. So when you try to start the movement, you see it's going to move a bit faster. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. It moves a bit faster. So basically this is key frames. I think it does it on this tutorial how to add key frames and animations to your text and even video or give files. Hope you enjoy this video. In the next class, we are going to look at how to add coloration to your video footage. So until next time, thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. Bye. 12. Adding Colouration: Hello and welcome back. In the last class, we talked about how to add animations and key frames within our clips in life. In this class, we're going to look at how to add coloration. Basic coloration. We can say coloration, or we can say color correction and color grading. Now there are a bunch of effects that I used to add to colgate video clips within life. I will show you some of them. You can go ahead and play around with them and see how you can use them to enhance your video. So the first thing I need to do, I need to import a video into the timeline that is a bit plain. It's very easy to edit, to add color to it, it's a bit plain. Okay, let me see this one. I can just struck and drop this. Okay? So you can see in the video it's a bit plain. It's practically plain colors a row footage, you can see, we can carry it out. Editing here. There are a number of effects. Like I said, you can always come to effects here and you can see different effects. The first one I used to add is the white balance can come over here and you can just set for white balance, and you'll see it over here. White balance elements, you can just drag and drop it. Once you drop an effect, you'll be able to see it over here. So the first thing is you can manually, on your own, alter the color temperature. From here you can just select and drag and move, and you can see it's increasing the temperature. Okay. So what I usually do at default, or you can come down to increase warmness, or if you go to the right, you can see it's increasing the coldness. But then what I usually do, I usually use the color picker. Okay? And then you can choose a neutral color within the video. Click and just sit on it. And it's just going to give you that a little bit of a shift. So you can click and you can select anywhere. Let's say we check this, um, a color, you can just heat and you can see it just gives it a little bit of a color adjustment. That's a neutral place. You're free to choose in any place. If you want to choose any other place, you can choose. And it's going to give it that a little bit of touch. And you can vary the temperature sensitivity from here, right? So you can increase bringing some coloration to it by sliding down. Or you can increase the coldness by by going up directly into the, so you can see it's not a bit colder. That is white balance. You can go ahead and play around with it. The next feature or next effect that I usually use is called the Technicolor. You can see it over here. Technicolor, we can just drag and drop it. If you want to drag and drop it, you can drag and drop it up. For demonstration purpose, let's remove the white balance. Now our video is back to the preview on the male one, Okay? As it was in the beginning, you can just search for technicolor. You can see it here and you can just drag and drop it here. Once you drop, you have these two controls, the blue, yellow axis. You can see even by mere dropping, it has improved the color of the video. You can just select and you can go ahead and increase, good towards the right and you're increasing the temperature. Or you can see it now a bit better or you can come down a bit to lower the lightness. Okay, You can just take it up a little bit and you can see the color is now popping very, very clear. So you can see, it's now a bit clearer. So this is the beauty of technical color. It's very good. And you can see the before and the after. There's a lot of improvement here. So that's the second one. I do have another one which is the levels. I do add levels. Okay. Sometimes I do add levels to add levels. You can remove this if you want or you can just go ahead and search for it levels and you can see color levels. You can come to this level, this is one I'm using, so you can just drag and drop. Right now we have two effects. We have the technicolor and then we have the levels over here. These are levels. This is the different things you can adjust. Let's say at this moment. We can disable the technicolor and then we can make adjustments to our levels. You can just move across E. You can see this is making it a bit darker and come down a bit. Bring it down and you can see the clarity. It's now a bit clearer. So you can just go ahead the input white level, you can also adjust. All right, so this gives you more whites. I think I kind of like this one. You can see the before and the after, so you don't have to touch everything. Just get the ones that you are interested in, like the gamma. And you touch the gamma tires to just give you a boost a little bit in the sharpness you can see it's not a bit sharper and it's very, very clear. So depending on which of the features you prefer to use. I think I kind of like this one because you can see the before and you can see the after. Everything is now pop clear. So it's all up to you to choose which one to use. So that's the levels that we've just added. If another one that I do have is the lift gamma gain control or effect, so let's say we search for it. Yeah, so you can come to lift gamma again. This one you can just drag and drop. Luma lift again. So you can just drag and drop. You see like you can disable the levels over here. So you can disable this. Now back to normal except some little increase. You can come down here and you can play with the lift. You can see you can play around with the lift over here. It's now a bit too dark. You can just, then you can increase, decrease. Okay. So as you play around with it, you will now be able to, on your own, be able to adjust and see what works best for you, so that you can adjust accordingly. So you can see this one, I think it's better. So we can play around with the grammar effect. Bring it down. Okay, so you can see now the image is coming out and popping up clearly. You can see it's very clear. But then you can adjust the others as well. You can just play around with it. You can see it's now becoming much more clear and everything is now better. Okay? It's all boils down to you, but let's add the last one that I used to add. We can close on all of this on our own, then we can add the last one. The last one I used to add is the lift gamma gain. This one, lift gamma again, so you can drag and drop it here. All right, so you have these wheels, the one that I used to play around with is the Gamma. So you can just select drag and move it away towards the yellow color if you want to have more of the yellow. Or you can move towards the blue color. Coming down to the white point, I think is good. You cars, The lightness, you can increase the lightness from here. So this is too high. You can come over here, bring down this left a little bit, okay. You can see the color is now a bit better. So this is now much better depending on which one you prefer to use. But I kind of like this one and I like the lofty coloration. Everything is pop clear. Okay. So it's all boils down to you. What effect do you want to use? Just master it and then see how you can use it to improve your old coloration within Tf. So I think this brings us to the end of this class on how to do color correction and color grading within life. The next class, we're going to look at how to add and manage sound within life. Okay? Until next time, thanks for watching, and I look forward to seeing you in the next class, Bye. 13. Adding and Managing Audio: In this class we're going to look at how to add audio and manage audio. Within a live to add audio, you can search for audio from anywhere. Maybe reality free audio. Sometimes you can get them from C to pizza Be, sometimes you can get a lot of reality free audios. So for example, you come over here and you can search for music directly. And you can just search for music and maybe probably come over here and put in background music. These are reality free audio tracks that you can download and use according to your content. If you are interested in sound effects also you can search for it and you can see a lot of them. Daylight, Joker Boy, and so on. A lot of sound effects you can find here. All you need is just to come over here and click on Download. And you can download it free of charge. You can play to have a preview of that particular effect. Yeah, so you can just be specific about what you're looking for. Alternatively, you can go to Youtube library also. It's available and it's free of charge for reality free. So I've imported one from the beginning where we imported audio. When we started importing our media, I imported this Abran music. So all you need is just to select and define the length of the audio you want. For example, you can use the in and out point. Maybe we can define this at the point, then we can select a more to this point and define this as the out point. Okay? So you can drag and drop this into the timeline so you can see it starts from the beginning. The ones are not really audios because they are plan, they don't have any audio. So we can just select on group and remove them directly. Select and delete selected items the same way here on group. And then we can select and delete selected item. We can just move this to the beginning. All right, so we can see it. If you don't want this background this truck, we can just easily delete it. Okay. You can see okay to this. I'll delete it now. Have our audio inserted beneath all our footage that we're working with, a dual. We'll have to end it at this point. So we can use the Reso tool. You can use the Reso tool over here and we can just click to create a cut. And then we're back to the selection tool. We can select this right click and delete selected item. And then we have our Odio now already in the background. So you can play, Yeah, I think this kind of looks good. But then we have to kind of create something like a fading into the Odio. You can navigate a dual to the top left. You can see this circle, you can just click on it. And you can see it just created the fade in into the background, okay? So you can just adjust by selecting and dragging. You can see you are adjusting the inflow up to the point that you want the whole music to go loud, or you can manually do it over here. From here you can see you can adjust like we've explained earlier on. Okay. I think I like the manual adjustment sometimes. I think it's okay at this point. And you can create an out point. Fed out also from here, just click move to the top right, you can see this red circle. You can just click on it and it created the fed out. Again, you can manually adjust or you can adjust using this right now in the Effects and Composition stack, you can see you have to fed in and fed out, which you can manually adjust on your own. Now the volume, if you play, what this means is if you play from the beginning, you see it starts from zero and then it gains the volume up to the highest. All right? But if you notice the volume is too high, so you have to use an effect called volume over here. So you can just go ahead type volume and you can see it over here. It's key flammable, so you can just drag and drop it into the audio. And you can see the volume control over here. Now it is key flammable, which means that if at some point I want to increase the level of the Odio, right now it is at the global scale, you can just reduce or increase at the global. So you can see now if I reduce, it is reducing everything in there. If I increase also, it is increasing everything, the entire volume. Okay? If you want to make it keyframable, at some point you want to have higher odio. At some point you want to have a lower audio like for example, let's try to make something meaningful. Let's inside a truck below instead of under. It's just going to be an audio truck. Just an audio track, I will say okay to this. All right, So volumes are generally key frameable, so in that if you want to increase some certain section of the audio clip, you can increase some certain section in terms of volume and you can reduce some certain sections in terms of volume as well. So assuming at this point I want to create a keyframe on this, my audio, the background music, I can just come over here and we can just create a keyframe, adding key frame, and then probably we can shift a little bit and add another key frame. Okay, so from this point I want the sound to go down. Okay, so let's say. I wanted to go down. Let's go back to the previous key frame, this one I wanted my sounds to go down a little bit, so it goes down like this to this point. Probably then I wanted to remain at this volume for this much longer up to this point. So I add another key frame, and from this another point I add another key frame. And then from this point I wanted to go up, okay, back to normal. So you can see it created this small sag, okay, where there's going to be less volume. You can see it just dies out. And then maybe I can have another sound effect. For example, I can come over here, Let's go back to the bean. Let's say this one, there's a volume in it. Okay, let's say this one, there's a sound effect in it. So let's say we want some section of it from this point. Let's say this is an point and we'll move inside, let's say at this point. And let me catch like two or three of the sound effects. And then I fell out point. So we can drag this and drop here. Okay, let's zoom this out. All right, so what I want is I want to use this sound effect from this. Let me ungroup this and then delete this section. All right. So we can use the sound effect of this guy at this moment where we silence or where we lowered the volume so we can kind of hear the sound effect on. Yeah, if you can still increase the volume so you can still hear, but the main idea is to lower the volume at this point here. The sound effect. Yeah, if you like, you can still select and still come back here. Still try to see. Let's go to the next key frame and then we can raise the volume a little bit. Okay, Raise it a little bit, so we can still go to the previous key frame and then raise it a little bit. Also we have a flat volume increase, something like this. Let's hear it one more time. There'll be the sound effect and then the background music. I think you get the message. We have the background music and we still have the sound effects going on because music sound effects are very, very efficient when it comes to working with volume. So it's creating professional looking videos. Okay, so this is about volume. You can add anything, You can play around with the sound effects, you can play around with different, you can add keyframes, and you keep playing around with them as you wish. Okay, so I think this does it on this tutorial on how to add background music, how to add sounds in general, and manage them within King Life on the next time. Thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. By. 14. Adding Effects: In the last class we talked about how to add manage audio within Talife. And in this class we're going to look at how to add effects. Okay, Effects are actually very useful and important depending on what you're trying to create. You can search for any effect and make use of it. So usually to search for any effect, you can come to the effect tab over here. Okay, so once you're on the effect tab, you can see there are different types of effects that you can see from alpha mask and key to audio effects. For example, you can see different kind of effects that you can just easily drag and drop. These are audio effects and these are blow and sharpen effect. If you have any section or any clip, any part of the clip that you want to blow, you can just use it and blow. Okay? So there are different types of blow. Which one do you want to use? But you can do average blow or you can do Gaussian blow. Most of the time I do blowing, I use the Gaussian blow. All you need is just a drag and drop and effect. And once you click on that particular clip, you'll be able to see the effect that you've added over here. All right? So you can come down here and you see the Gausha blow that you've just added. So you are now to increase the intensity because everything is going to be increased across the entire clip. So if you want to increase the intensity, you can just drag and you can see the blur nature is coming up. Okay? So you can just increase or decrease depending if you have any sensitive place within a document that you specifically don't want people to read, you can use this blow effect. Okay? So you can see it very, very nice. So depending on what kind of blow effect you are looking for. So again, if you want to have let the box shape adaptive blow. If you want to use shape adaptive or you want to use sharp, sharp or smart blow, okay, you can use any of these. Then you can go ahead and search for any effect. Like we have the equalizer and filter filter effects. You can easily drag and drop a particular effect into your work. Okay? So you can see them. Low pass filters and low shell filters, you have a lot of them here. Again, if you want these again noise, if you want to use the video noise generator or video noise reduction, you can search for noise. For example, you can see noise over here. You can just drag and drop in cases when you have a clip that have some noise that you've recorded and you are anticipating that there's some noise are within. So you can easily use that to create a noise, to noise that particular clip. Most of the effects that you're going to use that you require a searchable, you can always search for them. Sometimes you may want to add maybe cropping effect, you want to crop. Some section of your video, you can just go ahead and search for crop and you can see edge cropping or crop by padding. I usually use the edge cropping so you can just drag and drop. And you come down here and you see the cropping. So now what this does is you can crop from the top if you want to crop from the top. You can see your video is being cropped from the top. Or you can crop from the left. If you want to crop from the left, you can see it very easily and you can just adjust according to what you are trying to create, based on your creation. You can see from the right the same way. Okay, so if you have a specific cropping section or area that you want to crop, you can just go ahead and crop it. So the same thing, you can add any effect. I've just shown you how to add coloration, so which means you can add different kind of color effect. And the most useful one that I always use is a transform feature. You can either search for it or you can just come to transform. You can see it over here, transform. You can just drag and drop it on a particular clip. And you can select, be able to see the transform feature. This is an effect that you can use to increase the sizing of your video rotation if you have that effect in mind. If you want to centralize accordingly, you want to change to position based on x and y axis. You can do all that from here. It's all up to you. You can search for any effects according to what you are trying to create. Alternatively, if you want to add an effect, you can still write click on a particular clip. Once you write click a particular clip, you have a number of effects. You can copy an effect and paste the effect, or delete the effect if you want to. So for example here I can delete this effect and I can copy the one inside here. You can copy all of this effect, You can just copy and then you can come over here and once you're here, you can easily paste that particular effect to paste effect or you can delete the effect if you want. It's very nice to have effects that you can add and to beautify your work, that's that portion. And so sometimes you may need to add volume in terms of audio. You may need to add some volume effect. We've talked about volume in the previous class. We've talked about how you can add volume and how you can reduce the intensity of your volume, and so on. One thing that we didn't show is the audio mixer, which we didn't show. So the audio mixer is divided into two. We have the audio one, this is signifying the track number. Okay? If you have named it, you'll see it based on the numbering. But this is audio one, this is audio two and this is the master. This is the global effect. So whenever you change anything here, it's going to be effective on only do one, this is going to be only on audio two and this is going to be global. Okay, so this is the master. Right? So one last thing to pay attention to is that effects are classified. This is all the effects that we have. And when we click on any, we'll be able to see the sub effects that we have. But then they are classified according to video effects. You can see them over here. All the video effects are leveled here. If you want to see all your audio effects, we'll be able to see all audio effects, the reverb, echo, and delays. You can see them here. Classified. If you want to see from template, from available templates, you'll be able to see them from here. Maybe the ones that you've downloaded from online. Okay? And then if you start any template, you'll be able to see it over here. If you start any, you make it your favorite, be able to see it over here. And you can download more effect also from life, okay? So this can take you directly into life. And you have a number of effects. For example, zoom transition, the glitch transition. You can see any of them. This is the LMS HSL coloration. All you need is just to click on this install and it's going to be installed on your system. The color corrections, these are effects that you can easily install and you can find them over here once you go back. Okay, so a lot of them, so you can just go ahead and explore and see which ones you want to give a try and which ones you actually want to download and install. So it only takes a second to install all of this in your system and if you can find it, you may need to sometimes restart Kalif to be able to have access to the effect at you download. Okay, so I think this does it on this tutorial on how to add effects to your video clips within Talife. I hope you enjoy this video and the next class we're going to look at how to increase and decrease clip speed. Okay? Sometimes you may need to increase this clip speed, or sometimes you may need to reduce it. Or sometimes you may need to fast track a section of the clip or slow motion in some section of the clip. I'm going to show you how to do that in detail in the next class. So the next class. Thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next one. Bye. 15. Changing Clip Speed: In this class we're going to look at how to speed or slow a clip within this could happen both at the audio clip and at the video clips. Okay, so just demonstrate how to do that. All you need is just a drag and drop a clip, particularly that you want, that you want to increase or decrease the speed of it. So for example, let's say we have this duct clip here. Let's say we want to deal with something like this. All right, you can see the preview and we'll be able to see how they are moving under the sea. When you want to speed up a clip, you can just write clip on that particular clip that you want to speed. And you can see come over to change speed over here. Now this is the hundred percent. You can see the clip speed classified as 100% which means this is the normal speed. Okay, this is the normal speed. If you play it, it's going to play normally. But then when you try to increase this to 115, to 150 or thereabout, you've increased it by half. Okay. Um, let's say you can manually put it also, if you want to put it manually, you can put it 150% And once you click on Okay to this, you can see automatically the length of the video clip has reduced because you've reduced it by 12.1 of four, and then you have increased speed. So let's try it and see the intensity or how fast this is going to be. So you can zoom this a little bit so we can see very clearly where I'm talking about. All right, so this is it, it's the same length but only that they're going to move a bit faster. So you just take a look at, yeah, this is it. Yeah, this is it. They move a bit faster than the other one than the way they were before. You can increase and change it more, you can make it 200% which is going to be 100% increase. They're going to move pretty faster and exceed the length of the clip has already been. So you can see the Enter pretty fast and they move so fast. Okay, this is one way to increase the speed. In terms of the video, let's say we want to reduce because all of the increase or decrease and the speed that we are making, if you want to decrease also you can just write click and see change speed. And you come down here and lower it to maybe less, say 50. Let's say 50. Okay, 50 is good, so let's heat. And you can see the length has already been increased automatically. What signifies that there's a lot of the length of the entire thing has been increased. And then they're going to be in slow motion. So you can see even the entrance is going to be in slow motion. They move in pretty slow. You can see, yeah, they're moving slow and that's cool. This is another way if you want to speed up a particular section and slow down a particular section within this, you can do that by cutting, creating a cut within the clip sole, change the speed and let's bring it back to 100. Let's bring it back to 100. And now we have the exact length. So assuming we want to speed up the entrance into the sea, and then we create a court here. All right, so we just create a simple, create a simple court. Then it continues to move until it gets to somewhere around here. Somewhere around here when they hold their hands and start flowing. So let's say we create a court here from here. Let's say we get back to the selection tool. So we'll right click and then change speed of this. This part, we're going to slow it down. If you want, you can slow it down. Okay, This part will increase the speed, let's say to 200, 200. All right. So let's say we increase to 200 so the speed, they're going to be pretty fast when it comes to the entrance. Yeah, they enter pretty fast and then they're going to start flowing through to the other edge. Let them move slower here. Okay, so let's try to separate them. So let's select change speed and let's say we go to 70. All right, let's say okay to this. And you can see we just increase the length so they're going to go on slow mo. Okay, This is slow motion so you can see we can connect them. And then the last part is we're going to increase it, so they go pretty fast. Okay, so it change and they will make it 200, so it comes smaller, and then they move faster. So you can just have a preview of what we're just talking about. So let's say they enter pretty fast, and then they move slower, and then they get to move pretty fast under the sea. So that's one way that's on the video clips. We can do the same on the audio clips as well. Just write click and you can do the same changing of speed. Just say change speed and you're free to increase it to 200 and it's going to move pretty fast. All right. So you can see that the length of the audio has also been reduced the same way when it comes to the increase, you can still write click and change the speed and make it maybe 90 or 80 and then it's going to reduce. So in the same way you can reverse the clip, you can reverse it. Instead of going forward, you should start moving backwards by just seeking on that particular box. So I think this does it on this tutorial on how to increase or decrease the speed of a particular clip. I'p enjoy this video. In the next class we're going to learn how to add subtitles into your video clips within Catalyze. Until next time, thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. By. 16. Adding Subtitles: In the last class we talked about how to change the clip speed within Cad life. And in this class we're going to learn how to add subtitles. Okay. Subtitles will come in different forms. You can add them on your own and be able to customize them accordingly. So, let's start by inserting the clip that I want to add the subtitle on. I've recorded something very short clip and I want to import it. So to import we can just go to audio file. Okay, so I've recorded this, just drag and drop it into the project in, and again I can just select it and just drag and drop the entire thing into my timeline. All right, so let's play a preview of its cost. All right, so that's how it is. You can listen to it directly he cost. Today, I'm going to illustrate to you how to use the subtitle. All right, so let's see how we can add the subtitles to this very clip. And it's going to come under this video. It's just for demonstration purpose, so we can just go ahead. All right, so to add subtitles, you can come down to the bottom right over here and just click and you'll be able to add directly by hitting on this plus sign. To add, you can just hit on this plus sign. You can just see the subtitle over here. And you can see the sample of it at the top here. Now you're free to move this. You can move it to any location. For example, we're starting at this point. You can just quickly move it, then you double click inside and start typing. Let's hear the preview of what we're talking about it. So let's say I type hello. I'm Dr. Hello, I'm Dr. His struct of this course, so it stops at this point. So you can just come over here and drag. So you just meet up at this point. So let's have a preview of what we've just recorded. This hello is supposed to have a double L. And then from here we're just going to continue to use this. All right, so how to use this ho title. We stop here, so we can come over here and click on this plus side. And again we can just drag and move it. Close. All right, close here. This where it starts, we can just double click. So we say today I'm going to illustrate how to use the subtitles that, so let's hear it one more time. Today I'm going to illustrate to you how to use the subtitles life. Okay, so within taller this is done. And you can come over here and adjust the length until it just fits in directly to where we want. All right, so we can go ahead and listen to the other part. This is just a demonstration using live. All right, so let's say this is just a demonstration. So you can come over back to the subtitles and you can click to add. So this is just a demonstration of using Tal Life. Actually you can keep adjusting and keep typing, reduce the length. Let's have a preview of what we've just entered one more time to see how powerful this is going to be. Stop this calls, I'm going to use the titles within Tal Perfect. I think this is okay. But then if you want, you can add other features. Like for example, you can come over here to this control, you can click on this letter. If you want, you can click on this letter, and then you have access to the custom fonts. If you want to change the phone style, you can change different type of font style here depending on you. If you want to have custom fonts and you want to have customs font size, you can change the sizing from here as well, or you want to have custom font color. You can change the coloration from here. You can just select. And you could easily change the text coloration directly. But I think the one on the video is kind of good and I like it if you want to use custom color, outline color, you can use also custom outline size and custom shadow position and so on and even opaque background. Okay? You can change all of this from here. Now once you're done, you can click out and this is another way to add the text. Okay? You can add it directly inside here. So you can just select. And then you can be able to type indirectly here. I'll be able to see the timing over here. And you can define the point and outpoint where you actually want to use. And you're free to delete any section of the recording. Okay. But then I kind of like the default text features that we have, the phone styling and so on. I like it, so I'm just going to leave it. So in a nutshell, this is basically how to add subtitles into your video clip within Cadillac. I hope you enjoy this video. In the next class, we're going to look at how we can generate a simple video editing from scratch, okay? Using Cade, we'll create a new project. And then we'll create a simple project, video editing project directly from scratch. And then let's see how it's going to look like. So until next time, thanks for watching, and I look forward to seeing you in the next class. By. 17. Sample Video Editing: Hello and welcome back. In the last class, we talked about how to add subtitles within your clips in T life. And in this class we're going to look at how to create a video from scratch. Maybe a very short video. Okay demonstration using some of the features that we've used throughout the tutorial. I'm going to demonstrate to you how to use some of the features to create a very simple video. So to start with, let me empty my timeline. From here, we can write, click and control it to select everything and write, click and see, delete selected items. And now we have an empty timeline. So all you need, you can refer back to the clips that we have loaded. At the topian, we have a number of clips in both videos, audios and the audiobout. We can start by just dragging and dropping the clips that we have. For example, we have this audio clip of this swimming, this guy swimming under the water. So you can just select if we want the entire section. Okay, like we have here. We want the entire thing. We can just drag and drop it. And I think it's okay to have the entire thing and then we can have some part of it maybe are seen something like this. All right, so I don't want the audio section, so we can ungroup this. Delete this item. So we have this and I think we don't want to use the entire thing here, so I think the 4 seconds is okay. We can come to the edge and we can trim up to this playhead point. Okay, then we may want to add some more. So let's say we have this video also, and we can just go ahead and group them and delete this item. Okay, And this one also. We don't want to have the entire thing, so we can just select some section of it, let's say from here. And just create a cut over here. Let's use our radio, create a cut. We'll move to maybe 123, 4 seconds. And then we'll create another cut here. All right, so let's say we create another cut here. And then we can get back to our selection tool. We can delete this section, Select, delete item, select here also, and delete the item. And then we can either rug and move, or we can right click and remove space and it now automatically clogs. Okay, then we can add some more points. We can select this video. We can select this video, instead of lightly doing it on the top, let's move it over here. So let's move and select an point. So let's say we have this point, and then we move here. We have this out. 0.4 seconds, 5 seconds, it's okay. We have this out point, and we can just drag and drop it here as well. All right, so we have this number of clips, we can drag this one also like it. Okay. We can make this at the beginning, assuming I don't want this to be here. So we can select delete the entire item. We can just go ahead and select the area, the region that we want. Let's see here. I like it from this point. We create an point here. And then we can move up to this point. So we can see we create an outpoint here. Instead of dragging and dropping, I want to put it at the beginning to showcase that they are moving pretty fast. So I can just come over here and we can see we should add it here. So we can click to Add. And you can see it's been added into our clip from the beginning, right? I think this is quite too long. So we can make a selection, let's see here. And create another, can create a cut here. And then we can use the letter S to get back to selection tool, click and delete the selected item. And you can select or remove this piece and everything is now back. So we can ungroup this so that we can remove the audio section. Okay, remove the selected. So we have very clean transition. Okay. We can try to see that this is now, they're moving pretty fast. And then this guy suddenly jumped into the sea and start swimming. But then the transition, the entrance is too far, too abrupt. So let's try to create a transition. We can over over the top left. And just let's do this. We can move over to the bottom and create a transition which we can easily use. Okay, let's move this up so we can just have a transition into this. Come to the bottom. Just create a simple transition, which is the Fed in then the same way here, we can create another transition here. All right, so we can just raise this one up so we can have another transition, the transit smoothly in between. All right, this is it. We have all our transitions. Eclipse connected. If you want to, we can have something like a fed in into the video. Okay, let's make this a Fed in and then we can kick start so you can see. It's going to fade in into the clip. Then you see it moving pretty fast. And then these guys jump into the water, the sea. And then they start swimming. And then they start viewing some animals. This one and probably this one, this total. And then to be able to see these are some beautiful things. Okay, we're done with the connecting of the video clips. We can just insert background music so you can drag and drop and drop this here. And again we can just come over to the last part over here with the X two, we so bleed and just create a cut here. Again, we can get back with the letters and create the delete. We can enable this. I have disabled it before, We can just remove the selected item. We can come over here to the top right, create fed out. And then to the left, we can create another fading and fade out. Then we can vary the volume by coming to the effect here and searching for volume and exit over here, dragging and dropping. Then we can lower the intensity of the volume directly. So we can just lower it. All right, just lower it a little bit. Let's try to play. I think it's good, but we can increase it a little bit more so it becomes a little bit clearer Sometimes We may need to have sound effects maybe demonstrating the undersea water effect. We can come back to this being again. We have this video clip that has this sound and I think I like it. Let's, and we're just going to use the section that has a sign. Yeah. Think this is the section that we're going to use. Drop this. Let's group this. All right, so group then. We're going to use this so we can move it across from the entrance. Let's start from here and then we'll be able to have a look. Let's say we come over here, we delete this item because we don't need it. We delete. And then over here, let's hear it. Yeah, I think this is good. We can create the same cot over here with the selection. This is to create a co, then we can back to the selection tool, we can delete this item. We now nearly our video completed. Okay, we have, we can reduce the volume as well by coming over to the effects. Volume can drag and drop. Can lower the volume a little bit. Okay? Can lower it a little bit. Okay, So I think this is good. So the next thing that we may want to add is some text. Yeah, without text, this is going to be nearly useless. So let's add some text. We go back to our bin, come to the small arrow, we click on it and say Add Title Over here. We can just type, for example, welcome to Lane. Okay, so again select and then we can just centralize the bottom. We can add some shadow to it and then we can make it type writer effect again through the process if you want to, you can see welcome to Langkawi by word, by character. We can see create this title. So welcome to Lanka. We can just drag and drop it here. All right, so we specify the length. Okay, want it at this beginning? Let's start from here. From the end of this fade in. Let start to welcome. Okay, so we can just clear a preview. You can see this fading in Welcome to Langkawi. All right, we can add more trucks. You can insert more track, maybe audio track above this. Okay, we can now add, okay, let's say we add some more. Okay, this is enjoyed by entering the C. Let's add some more text over here. Let's see, adding Diving Adventure. All right, so this is Diving Adventure. You can select and you can still add the same effect, the shadow effect. I want it to be this much. We can change to position, We can still create this, and we can have a diving adventure. We can just easily pest it somewhere. We can use anywhere. Oh, we've added an audio clip. Supposed to be a video. Okay, so we can just undo this. Let's say we add a video clip here inside the truck. Let's call it a video. And then we inside above, so there's going to be a truck here basically for the text. So we have the first text. Let's say enjoin diving, adventure, drag and drop here. All right, so you can see now this is enjoying the underwater sea, okay. This is enjoying the sea view. All right, and I think you get the message. So let's try to play it and let's see how it's going to look like. This is nearly complete lesia. All right, So one thing, I didn't put it towards the end. I can put in something like I fill out here. So we can just drag, we'll make this fed out. It's just going to be a small fed out. Okay, from here. So we can just make this copy. We can past it there. Okay, so if you like, you can copy and paste the text also. You can just go ahead and edit. Okay. You can double click and then you can say thank you for, for example, goodbye, right? Thank you and goodbye. So you can just centralize, okay, so we can update and then you're going to see it's going to be the end. All right, so this is basically how to create the video from scratch. And you can add some animations also if you are interested in adding animation like the transitions or some animations to the text like we've demonstrated through the video. Okay, so I think this does it for this tutorial on how to create a simple video clip, the scratch from the start, showcasing some of these effects and features that we've demonstrated through the tutorial. So you get the message. I think this does it for this tutorial. And the next class we're going to talk about how to export our video in different formats within our system. So until next time, thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you in the next class, bye. 18. Exporting Videos in Different Formats: All right, so in the last class we talked about how to create a video from scratch with using Cadle Life. And in this class we're going to look at how to export the created video that we've done earlier on in the class. Assuming we've done created this video and we like what we see. We've done all the editing, all the creations, all the addition of the transition, the effects, and so on. And we have this, our final video. Let me play it one more time. And we like what we see. We just, we're just trying to go ahead and export. The next thing is to export. But then before then, let me play this so that we can see a preview of what you've created. Yeah, so this is perfect with all the features that we need to create. Okay, so now the next thing is to export. To export your video, all you need is just to come to the project panel over here and you can see Render, this red button. Just click Render, and it's going to bring you over here. Have some number of things to do here. The first one is to define the output file. Where do you want this to go to? The default is where you selected in the first place. It's going to go to your movies, Dr. Shed movies and this is going to be the sample video that've created. If you don't want, you can select a different direction, different directory. You can save it here and we can give it a name, sample video. All right, again, so we can just create a folder and we call it export. We can just click here, and then we're going to save it inside this folder, Export. And we just save directly. Okay, we've defined the location where we want it to be saved in this export. And then we can go ahead and define the, the other features. Usually the H264h 264 and MP four is the best quality that are used so far. You can go to MP four if you want. You can go to four K if you're interested. But for now, for Youtube and for most other platforms, I think H264p four is kind of Ok. So you can export the full project from here, or if you want to export some selected zones, you can define it from here. All right, you can check out more options from here and you'll be able to see render full color range. Or if you want to render a preview resolution, you can render preview resolution as well. So these are some things that can enable you to speed up your system. These are the audio section separate file for each audio truck. If you want to separate them, you can do that. And the speed as well. You can change the custom quality, you can change or I leave everything at default. If you want to add presets, there are some presets here which you can download and you can add directly. So the rendering duration, the estimated is going to be 20 minutes. So you can see the estimated. You can render to the file or you can generate the script if you're interested. For this tutorial, you can que it also, you can check out the s if you have and if you have scripts you can be able to see here. But for this tutorial for this course, we just want to render to the file that you define. So you can just go ahead and click and render to the file, and you can see here that the rendering have started. All right, so you can see the rendering is in progress. You just give some seconds and it's going to render and complete. And I'm going to play the video also at the end of it all so you can watch it one more time. Sincerely, I appreciate your presence and you participating in this course up to this point. And the last class is going to be about conclusion and projects that you carry out to demonstrate your understanding of how to use cattle life as a beginner. Until next time, thanks for watching and I enjoy the video. While it please go. 19. Course Conclusion + Project: Congratulations on completing this course.
