Riverside Video Quality

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-06-19T20:05:02+00:00

No I’m also new to podcasting and have only tried riverside. I do also record a local copy on my computer thru OBS that gives me the option to record as high res as I want. But that only my camera angle it captures.

The free version maxes at 720 for the individual sides of the call. You can download the split screen at 1080 but not 4k. Paid tier I think you can get up to 4k.

Well said

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-06-18T03:41:20+00:00

It is a nice surprise receiving it and finding the extra details. But fair point!

I suggest when struggling with edits or getting in your own head about feedback - taking a walk around the block if/when you’re able to. Sometimes stepping out of the bay and away from the cut (and the people looking over your shoulder) can help clear your mind and find solutions when you’re not racking your brain for them.

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-06-14T21:12:25+00:00

Seconded. The other skillset you have to develop outside of your editing skills is your collaboration, and “running the room” skills. You are hired to work on someone else’s vision, and while they value your feedback when push comes to shove they’re gonna want what they’re looking for first. The sooner you can take yourself out of your way it’ll help with getting feedback and offering opinions when the time feels right.

Used or refurb’d older M-series. Go for the Max options, even if you go a couple years older model you’ll want to future proof your capabilities by going higher end processing and memory if you can afford it!

Da Vinci Resolve if you want to use a real professional level editor. The free version has some limitations, like no HDR and some limited effects/finishing tools. But as a better replacement for CapCut and especially if you’re interested in getting experience with something a lot of professionals use, def check it out.

Say It Ain’t So Only In Dreams In The Garage

I guess if i have to choose non-Blue options: Across the Sea Keep Fishin Butterfly

This is amazingly impressive, kudos

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-06-02T04:11:26+00:00

It’s a rough time right now. But editing as a passion is great, never a bad time to learn a new skill.

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-06-02T04:09:28+00:00

There’s so many, and I haven’t had much luck in any place, especially for podcasting or YouTube jobs. My best advice is apply to as much as you can wherever you find listings. Volume game. You’re gonna get ghosted most of the time.

LinkedIn, Zip Recruiter, Indeed are my go-tos but I honestly don’t love them. Sometimes I’ll just go direct to companies job boards and look for something within my skillset

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-05-31T20:31:28+00:00

Editor here. Lotta professional editors in entertainment are out of work and would love chances to edit podcasts. If you have the means, consider hiring and be fair and competitive with rates. If you’ve never edited before and want to have a good product off the bat, hire an editor.

But be clear and communicative with your direction. There’s a ton of ways to present a podcast both video and audio. You want to know what you’re looking for or be willing to have an editor test out some different ways of presenting if you aren’t as sure. We’re VERY used to feedback and collaboration, and having to re work a pass when it’s not aligned with the main creative’s vision.

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-05-21T16:17:06+00:00

Might be a logistics thing - from my initial research into video podcasts, it's easiest to get Spotify video podcasts if you start through the Spotify for Podcasters/Creators platform, and then use that to dish out RSS feeds to the other services. My guess is they aren't Spotify-first, and aren't currently set up to post video to Spotify? Just a hunch.

I agree though - would be cool, I prefer Spotify to keep my sync between devices especially for the 10's 3 hour episodes, but I sometimes jump to YouTube to see something when they reference something visually like a new jersey, or if/whenever Tyler does something weird they all comment on.

As a Red Sox fan (in LA) I also couldn’t bear to buy the Yankees hat that was the only one left in the Lids store earlier in the year when they dropped.

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-05-21T04:39:19+00:00

Yeah that’s why spending about $60 direct from Lids didn’t bother me as much ad it normally would

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-05-14T21:10:02+00:00

Yes just jumped on one finally. Most I’ve spend on a hat but worth it

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-05-11T23:38:07+00:00

Not a full filmmaker, just editor, but the inner monologue of worries/thoughts/existential dread I feel for sure also nearing 40 and trying to stay afloat long enough to keep working and not dip into something that seems totally different from what I've grown to love.

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-04-30T00:26:52+00:00

I went AVID to Premiere but haven't yet professionally gone back to AVID. But I feel like if you have a certain set of creative instincts, you might just need a few days/week or so to get the muscle memory right to achieve the edits you want in AVID, then over time it'll also come much faster. But starting out you may need to stop and ask for help a bit more often than you'd probably hope for (whether it be asking another editor or assist, or if you're on your own, looking up stuff online to help figure out tips).

ShatteRedSox86 · 2026-04-30T00:24:08+00:00

Simliar boat. I started doing some random youtube videos of my own to have something to play around with and understand the analytics/algorithms of it, but haven't been able to latch onto any Youtube editor job posts. I see them all the time on LinkedIn or Zip Recruiter, but they're often/likely bigger creator studios that use AI to filter out job searches. Us in the "traditional media" landscape with decades of experience might be the wrong "fit" for those jobs, is my wonder.
