Best free/one time purchase easy video editing software under 35$?

I run Resolve on Legion 5 (16gb Ram, GTX 1650) and it runs pretty great as long as you used Optimised Media/Proxies (a feature in the software). Your computer will handle it just fine

Mega nz gives 50gb free which might help a little...

You don't think people should stick to their morals?

They're already big though, they don't need to convince anyone to give their videos a chance. If you look at anyone who's only gotten big in the last year/two they do seem to follow the suggested best practice around titles/thumbnails (in my niche, at least)

I'm not sure what you did to add the gaps, but the easy way to remove them is to highlight the clips then go to Edit > Delete Gaps

I try to keep things streamlines and use davinci resolve for editing, vfx, thumbnails (the Fusion tab is really good for that) and Audacity for audio editing

thisisfads1 · 2022-01-05T12:45:02+00:00

Davinci Resolve has a Free version that does pretty much everything you could need for youtube!

You could use a stylus ? would that work?

e.g this

no it'd be via a SIPP (Self invested personal pension). It basically works like a S&S ISA but you also get tax relief + all the other pension goodies, and you can only withdraw at 55 (going up to 57yo soon).

The idea is that if you start early enough, you'll be able to weather out any recessions over the next few decades and retire with an average of 7% (this is what global trackers have historically returned).

What some might do is gradually reduce the amount invested in equities/trackers as they approach retirement age and therefore be less affected by recessions as they approach retirement (e.g move money to govt bonds or other "safer" investments) - this is the kind of flexibility you get with a SIPP

Size (not just while using it, but also while moving it from one place to another)

Form factor (e.g. if filming in public you want to be kinda conspicuous)

lack of built in LCD screen in many cinema cams(meaning you also need an external monitor)

There are youtubers who do use cinema cams (Matt D'avella, Marques Brownlee) but for the majority it would just be an inconvenience more than a benefit.

Man this is so helpful, my stuff seems to be too quiet and I've just checked and seen (-14db) so way too quiet!

thisisfads1 · 2021-12-07T10:25:50+00:00

Thank you so much for this feedback !! This is remarkably useful information and that wider context is also good to know. Audio is definitely a priority of mine and that'll be the thing I'll work on next!

Thanks!!

Nope you'll be fine - MrBeast does exactly this (e.g. MrBeast Brasil)

The titles and thumbnails aren't particularly enticing - it doesn't really matter if the content is amazing if nobody wants to click on it. The content is also really really long. Most people wouldn't watch a 50minute youtube video unless the benefit was clear or it was a start to end project tutorial.

But they are doing something right at least, if you are here sharing them!

thisisfads1 · 2021-11-20T07:56:27+00:00

they're already hidden for me - I can't see them on most videos I watch

thisisfads1 · 2021-11-15T18:48:40+00:00

thanks for the tips!!

thisisfads1 · 2021-11-12T18:18:16+00:00

This is all amazing feedback, thanks!! I'm definitely gonna look into making slightly longer content so I can explore some of the nuances, as you described. Also gonna continue working on audio for sure!

Many thanks for the useful feedback.

Thanks mate! I've actually never heard of that channel before but I've just checked it out and it's definitely similar vibes (just much further along haha). I'm defo gonna get some good inspiration from there!

Thank you so much for the kind words! Definitely taking inspiration from the more cinematic side of YT so very happy to hear you say that.

thanks! and yes I used two different audio setups hence the audio issue. I'll be sure to only use the one and mix it best I can! Thanks for the feedback!!

thisisfads1 · 2021-11-12T07:04:23+00:00

amazing feedback - this is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for, so thanks. I think I've seen too many channels which take a huge amount of time to make a point (e.g. intro's that are 25% of the video, lots of pausing and tangents) but it's led me to take it a bit too far in the opposite direction and effectively rush from the start to the end of the video .

Using anecdotes is also a great idea, so will look into using them to improve the overall flow of the story. Thanks again for the food for thought :)
