YOUTUBE VIDEO EDITING (BTS of how I edit videos QUICKLY!)

YOUTUBE VIDEO EDITING (BTS of how I edit videos QUICKLY!)

Today I’m going to be talking about YouTube video editing. Specifically, I’m going to give you a behind the scenes look at how I edit my videos quickly. So I know I’ve talked about simple video editing or video made easy in a video before but I thought it would be easier to show you how I actually edit my video. 

01 Get organized 

Before I get into how I edit my videos quickly for YouTube. I wanted to talk about planning and filming. Those two have to be organized before you can quickly edit your videos. So if that’s a mess, then this video editing isn’t going to work. 

Open Adobe Premiere and name your project after the video that you’re actually editing. A few weeks ago, I talked about organizing your video files. You’re going to add your Adobe file (or your software file) to the folder called ‘Editing’ your YouTube video file. Make sure all your files are named correctly. Even your footage should be named with your final video title and then numbered in sequential order.

YOUTUBE VIDEO UPLOAD 2020 (Everything you need to know to optimize your video!)

YOUTUBE VIDEO UPLOAD 2020 (Everything you need to know to optimize your video!)

Are you confused about YouTube SEO? SEO helps you get found by search engines. That includes Google, YouTube, Pinterest, and so on. Even if you don’t have a big audience, it’s good to optimize your content so when you do grow bigger or someone randomly searches for your content topic, they’ll be able to find you. This is such a big deal for YouTube. People are searching for videos to help them solve problems all the time. That’s why you should optimize your video as soon as you upload your YouTube video. Learn all the things you need to do to optimize your video in this YouTube video upload tutorial.

YouTube Video Upload (Everything you need to know to optimize your video!)

Today I’m going to talk about everything you need to know to optimize your videos. Basically, this is just an updated version of “How to Upload Your YouTube Videos,” but we’re going to be talking about YouTube SEO. So if you haven’t uploaded a video yet this year, YouTube has actually updated their uploader, so now you can only upload one video at a time, but don’t worry, you can actually go back to the classic version. I’m guessing that they updated the uploader because of the new rules with the kid content. They want to know if you’re creating videos for kids or if you’re not creating videos for kids, but really, if you go to the defaults, you can actually check to say that your channel is not for kids or if it is for kids. 

01. File names are important when you upload YouTube Videos

Before you upload your video, the first thing you need to do is name your video file. The name of your video file is important because it’s also part of SEO. Don’t just upload a video that says “video one,” or “YouTube video one,” or some people use dates for their videos. Make sure you name your file what your YouTube video title is.

How to write YouTube scripts for better engagement

“I don’t know what to talk about…” That’s one of the biggest reasons people shy away from creating videos. But what if you always knew what you’re going to talk about? Keep watching to find out how to write youtube scripts for better engagement.

How to write YouTube scripts for better engagement

Today I’m going to talk about creating YouTube scripts for your videos and the foolproof formula that you can learn from watching any TV show or movie.

So, let’s get to it.

Always know what you’re going to talk about

Not knowing what to talk about was a big reason I didn’t create videos for a long time. I don’t like being unorganized and I’m not a great speaker when I have to improvise. 

If you think about it professional speakers or even actors wouldn’t go on stage without some sort of script. They wouldn’t know what to do or talk about. Of course, if you’re a veteran speaker then you’ll already be used to being on stage and knowing what’s going to happen. BUT as a beginner that’s a whole other story. There’s a lot that we’re not used to. Mainly, speaking to a camera or being comfortable in the spotlight. If you outline all the things you want to talk about, even if you stray away from the main topic, you’ll get back on track without losing time.
