If you saw my last post you know that I'm trying to finish a video edit within 4 hours....... Well that came and went and the video is not finished yet..... I'll be done in about two more hours.

I think my problem is that I film too much and my Clips are too long - which take extra time to process once I get them onto the computer. I'll have to remember for next time to keep my Clips 10 seconds or less. This isn't a monumental fail. As you can see by the photo I've only got a few clips left to process.

Really hope I can get this finished before midnight. having steemit open probably isn't helping my productivity but there's some juicy stuff going on right now. Just wanted to give you all an update.

BE EXCELLENT TO EACHOTHER

I miss Youtube's video editor.

Was it anygood or just really easy to use ?

I thought it worked perfectly although it was hard to get to. I think that was why not too many people people used it. You could upload your clips and combine them together. Pretty simple.

You should use proxy files for the edit and just process the final cut.

^This guy edits^ I'm only shooting at 1080 - I use proxies for 4k which do make a big difference for render times. With these kinds of videos the processing im refering to is really just screening footage for what I want to use - and especially for this video - stabilizing clips & finidng the right warp settings. I usually shoot with my camera in a cage that has a top handle and side pistol grip. I just didn't use it today. So there's lots of nesting sequences and trial / error with stabilization.

uuuurgh....Im so sick of editing, Ive pretty much given up......Its TOO much for my brain, Im just not tech enough to utilise the machine I have. It does my head in. If I was super rich I would get adobe cloud and then buy a NEW pc for every new project (and just give the 'old' ones away to poor desperate aspiring film makers). Ahhh, keep dreaming.

Good things will happen man. Just keep swimming. Learning how to edit was the best decision I ever made. Really helped me get better at filing as well. Thanks for stopping by. New video will be up tonight. Hope you get a chance to check it out!

Found your blog from the chat section of the adsactly scandal. Your stuff is good.

Keep it up man.
