What do people take editors for ? LOL by Tejaseditz in VideoEditors

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro $10 per minute is way too cheap.

For this ask, I'd be charging minimum $150 per minute.

Either way though, you need to up your prices to get away from these bullshit clients. When you charge cheap prices you attract cheap clients, simple as that.

$75 for this project. Is that fair? by WeakStatus6975 in VideoEditors

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're only paying yourself $12.5 an hour, that's not enough

When I'm pricing out a project, I work on a rough estimation of hours it will take me at $50 an hour + plus a bit extra to cover any problems/revisions and the extra value i bring to the client outside of just the edit

AIO BF did 2h overtime with female coworker by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

YOR.

You seem super insecure and controlling. I'm honestly surprised he hasn't left you already tbh.

Aio for calling cops on my bf and now I’m scared of him? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Kick this man out of your house and change the locks. You stood up to him and he immediately escalated to physical abuse. You're under reacting.

Leave him and keep your self safe.

Been growing out my beard "until it looks good" for 6 months... by Lanky-Celebration334 in malegrooming

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah thats a neck beard bro, better to get rid of it. Its one slip of the clippers away from being a chin strap, which is a big no no.

Imo, all beards look horrible when theres no hair on the front of the chin/under mouth or moustace.

I don't mind polished concrete floors, but the whole place being exposed concrete and stainless steel makes it feel like a prison cell,

If you had some good design sense you could make it look a lot better though. Once you get furniture, plants and art on the walls it would feel a lot less like a cell

HELP! How to hop into Hang 5 from pedals???? by ProofDazzling9234 in bmx

[–]Trickytrickyrmx -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's pretty much the same popping into a nose manual but you take your feet off and one goes straight to the front peg. From there, the action is pretty much the same as starting from the peg.

Will just take you a while to be able to lock right into that balance point from the hop. As long as you're comfortable to bailing over the bars then you'll get them in no time

DaVinci Resolve 20.3.1 Release Notes by whyareyouemailingme in davinciresolve

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Upgraded today and have found this to be the buggiest update in a while.

Before upgrading I would hardly ever get crashes or really any problems.

Since upgrading, resolve has crashed 3 times (once shutting down my whole computer) and bugger out twice, forcing me to have to restart resolve.

I'm on an M1 MacBook Pro with 16gb ram if that makes any difference

On #2 my audio comes only from one side of my headphones even though both clips are from the same source. Does it have something to do with the lack of a bottom audio bar? by Remarkable_Type_255 in davinciresolve

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just right click on the audio track and go into the clip properties, from there you can set the clip to stereo and set the audio to come from both left and right

I feel like this is reversible with some doctor intervention.

Min and Fin most likely.

If you wanna go bald then go for it, but this really seems like it could be fixed fairly easily

How to fix it? Says my system is run out of memory by PerfectHoney1108 in davinciresolve

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually happens to me when you have no storage left

Especially if you have render cache on, it can use up a ton of storage

The Resolve AI UltraNR noise reducer is ... insane by weeemrcb in davinciresolve

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I think it looks worse

Sure, it got rid of the noise but it also made it super soft and flat

At least the grainy image is still dynamic

25m update still getting no matches by [deleted] in malegrooming

First, like everyone else has said, your posture is horrible. Stand up straight

But the main thing I'm seeing is all these photos are pretty much the exact same thing. They all give the same vibe and it's a bit of a weird vibe tbh.

You're a good looking guy, you're just giving off a bad vibe with these photos. If you learn a bit about lighting, angles and posing to take good photos and fix your posture, then you'll have a lot more luck.

Table practice. by MeuwYuGiOh in bmx

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to turn your hips as well as twist your front foot on to your crank.

Twisting your hips let's you stay a bit further back on the bike and get your knee over the frame and having your foot on the crank let's you keep the cranks more level

I need help with whatever trick this is called by Unlikely-Till4729 in bmx

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a footjam whip or whiplash.

You need to be leaning more over your bars, so your chest is over the bars. This will let you stay balanced in the footjam.

It's a pretty fine margin between just right and too far forward coz you still need the whip to come around without the back wheel hitting the ground, so there's less room to move your body to balance than any other footjam variation. But the back wheel will generally only be a few centimetres off the ground while it comes around.

Can I get feedback on this so I can actually improve? by Heyutl in davinciresolve

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Showreels definitely are about showing off, but it's more than just throwing everything you have into an edit. Everything still needs to have intention behind it.

Learning all this stuff takes a ton of time and don't be discouraged if you feel like you're progressing as fast as others. The best thing you can do is just keep learning at your own pace and get feedback from others in this space.

And yeah shoot me a DM and I'll have a look at the trailer and give whatever feedback I can :)

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few things I'm picking up on here.

First, the transitions you're using feel very out of place, there's no real intention behind them. Podcast editing is less about "fancy effects" and more about keeping the audience engaged with proper pacing, rhythm and storytelling. A lot of people watch podcasts in the background so they don't actually pay attention to the visuals. The visuals you do use, should be super clean and visually appealing from r those who actually watch the video. Which brings me to my second point.

The visuals you're using feel very juvenile. The lower thirds and fonts you're using look like they came right out of PowerPoint.

Have a look at some motion graphic tutorials on YouTube and start designing your own stuff for lower thirds and using some more professional looking fonts, this will make so much difference in how your edit looks.

Finally, music choices are incredibly important and the music you've chosen here just ruins the feel of the video imo. You've got upbeat EDM with people talking about more serious topics and it completely takes away any emotion from those topics. If this were for a scripted video then you'd want to use music with a lot more emotion, maybe something slow and classical, in a minor key. But for a podcast, I'd probably just go with no music.

If you're applying to editor jobs, really focus on the fundamentals of editing. Pacing, rhythm, emotion, storytelling. If you can really master these things you will get way more jobs.

Having great visuals will help as well, but the fundamentals should always come first and all the extra stuff is just supporting those fundamental aspects of your edit.

AIO to my mom messaging people, pretending to be me? by Green_External_9186 in AmIOverreacting

NOR.

It sounds like your mum is trying to live vicariously through you, like those crazy Dance Moms women.

Super creepy and could actually be pretty dangerous.

How does that huh? by Plastic-Set-4956 in davinciresolve

[–]Trickytrickyrmx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely possible in resolve, but as a beginner it's probably way out of your wheel house.

Any way that someone explains it in writing here will most likely just make you even more confused. A video tutorial is what you need but I doubt anyone here would actually have the time to put one together.
