I’ve been doing my channel for around 8 months and I’m trying to mix it up a bit with my editing but my content is by its nature kind of static. Your video has been incredibly helpful, showing you can do things catchy even if you are small and a solo creator. Cheers Mr Scott. You rock! 💪🏻

[@HeyJohnScott]

Thank you so much!! I'd love to see what you do with your videos, The closeups of cards and the color, it's eyecatching already! Be sure to update me!

[@ChrisWard64658]

I'm A BIG B-Roll fan. I am here to help.

[@onocoffee]

First time seeing John. At first I was thinking "God, get to the point" but this is really well done. Probably one of, if not the best KZbin education videos I've seen. Well thought out, scripted, shot and edited. Looking forward to seeing more of him - and how about getting him to do your podcast?

[@HeyJohnScott]

This comment has me cracking up 😆 GET TO THE POINT JOHN DAMN. I really appreciate the kind words though. Vyyyper and I have talked about me coming on the podcast for an episode, we've just been so busy we haven't gotten around to it. We will eventually though! Maybe talk about some editing tips and things I'm learning in this journey with the IQ.

[@chazanythompson]

Do you like watching videos?

[@CapnMcRummy]

Getting John onboard was another masterstroke from an already great channel. Amazing to watch

[@richstubbsanimation]

Another amazing video John! As a How-To content creator I often struggle holding my audiences engagement past the intro, but I definitely know how to change that now!

[@michellelanter]

I just hit 1500 subscribers and 2442 watch hours in 4 months time. For someone who hardly knew how to use a computer, I have come a long way. I just learned a few new things with editing and I am so proud of myself! I try to make each video better than the last. I do wish I could figure out how to improve my thumbnails. I still clearly have no idea what I am doing.......... But its working, lol.

[@Beautiful_Doors_of_Sweden]

Congrats 🎉 yeah thumbnails are difficult.

[@RiversRealmOfficial]

The neat thing is that you can always change your thumbnails to see how you video stats improve. I find it helps me see what works so i can create better ones for my next videos.

[@A10radium]

You make fashion content that's always interesting the topic alone is good Good pick

[@carloseasyy7219]

You are amazing ❤

[@bobbyrebholz2183]

Outstanding content! I'm learning so much from this channel. Question: If you've already posted a video but then go back and edit descriptions, tags, title etc., Does that suddenly boost chances of further reach or do you have to optimize everything at the time of launch?

[@benbusy5958]

I think the only way that might make your video more popular is that people will think you posted a new video. I don't think it's a way to cheat the YT alg.

[@SuperMan-c1k]

First KZbinr who is actually implementing every single tricks he is saying in the vdo and making his own vdo with a full engagement from his viewers (i watched the whole vdo without skipping for a sec)

[@CoachMarkBenge]

I'd hate to be a beginning KZbinr that realizes KZbin is more about video editing skills than good video ideas;)

[@Hikarochan]

This is absolutely one insane way of editing and capturing my attention. Been watching this channel for years, John brings a different spin in things. Though how long would it take to develop your own unique style and twist will take time. 😮

[@golfmk2]

Fantastic video. I was actually 'hooked!' I thought I utilised many of the techniques mentioned in my videos, but it turns out I probably don't half as much as I need to, so some scenes could potentially appear a bit long and uneventful. I'll try using more of these tips in my next video and see how things improve.

[@vidIQ]

Go for it!

[@alwaystalkmoney]

Small creators should find a way to outsource editing as soon as possible so they can focus on story, presentation, and topic selection.

[@SarcasticPlotRecaps]

Hard to find a decent editor who understands your channel though lol

[@TheSameGuyLiterally]

​@@SarcasticPlotRecaps real, some might get the wrong idea

[@HeyJohnScott]

I did the same and ended up growing more passionate about the topic than I expected! BTW I just started watching your Tipsy's video. Dude your channel is about to explode; channels of that quality don't stay quiet for long.

[@CobaltBlueUTG]

@@vidIQ And you succeed!

[@yhwhlungs]

That MrBeast intro was so on point 😂

[@RightBoyKA-POW]

Another thing to remember is that you don't necessarily need to have something physically in front of you. Remember that you can add an image that wasn't originally in the video into the video, or even remove the bad parts. Even after you're done recording a simple video, you can record another little video to add more clear information or make a scene look better.

[@eyesonindie]

Such a beautiful example of learning and evolving right alongside those you are teaching. Great, fresh-feeling video, John & vidIQ!!

[@itsahsan7326]

DAMN the editing of this video is amazing, just imagine how many hours of hard work was put into editing this. Thank you team VidIQ for providing us with the best quality content as always.

Had to comment! John you are SUPER TALENTED!! The editing in this is incredible! No wonder VidiQ snatched you up. WOW!

[@liviaarellano-producciones4896]

How awesome! You held my attention the entire time. I used to make videos where I talked to myself using a green screen, but they weren't as sophisticated as yours. Congratulations! I know how much work goes into creating this kind of video.

[@yougoslavia]

I think an amazing feature that youtube should add is translated videos. Instead of audio tracks, the sound and the video both get translated so there could be an English version of the video and a Spanish version of the video and if it's in English, the audio and all the on-screen text can be English and if it's in Spanish, the audio and all the on-screen text can be in Spanish. This would benefit creators who know multiple languages.

[@ThatsJStorm]

I believe they are working on implementing a transcription service something like that

[@i.shuuya3231]

I have no idea if it's possible to do right now, but I can see how that'd work. You'd need an AI to correctly identify all the pieces of text in a video, so then that'd get translated and pasted on the video. I wonder how'd that go. The text "swapping" should be seamless (optimistically). If you wanted to replace a long word with a shorter translated one, how do you fill in the empty space? Maybe with technology like Photoshop's generative fill. These kind of advancements are really fascinating

[@yougoslavia]

@@i.shuuya3231 You don't have to do that. You can just get the footage and edit it into different languages.

[@Harzhid]

This is literally the video I needed ,a reference to how I wanted to make my videos look ,gonna give my best for my next video , currently editing it and this popped up on perfect time!

[@BirdsPianoAcademy]

Sweet lord that was excellent! It must have taken blooming ages to edit! Congrats you absolutely nailed it with a massive powerful hammer!

[@NaudVanDalen]

John's VidIQ videos are the best VidIQ videos because his editing is amazing! There's so much going on. How long does a video like this take to make. It would take me way too long to even attempt to make a video like this. Like hundreds of hours. And I'd get maybe 100 views if I was lucky. At that point, I could have earned thousands of dollars at a minimum wage job.

[@sarahalaba]

I don’t normally comment on vidiq vids. y’all don’t need my engagement, it’s already huge. lmfao but this deserves special attention

[@pennym1056]

This is so insanely good! I would love a tutorial on how to do these retention cuts in Davinci resolve Looking forward to more vids with him!

[@travelinmyshoeschannel]

Wow, this video is great and blew me away! Loved all the editing techniques! It really shows how you can take a very dull and boring video and give it a completely different feel by making some adjustments to editing style. Excellent work on this, I know this probably took a while to make.

[@PeteTalksTech]

I think this was the most engaging 6 minute vid I've ever seen on KZbin 🔥🔥🔥

[@mountainjune]

I've been doing the last two points for at least a year, it's the hook that I don't always have. I need to work on having a consistent hook. Something that will engage the viewer and make more wanna stay after the 30 second mark. I have ideas, but generally forget them and fall back on my more comfortable format. Since my channel is more for a viewer to unwind, it's hard learning what will make people wanna stay. So, I'm trying to dial that in with my aforementioned ideas.

[@firangisafar]

The editing here is amazing! I'm new to editing, but I think it's a super important skill to learn on the youtube journey of my wife and me! Thanks for the tips!❤

[@eSlasher]

I'm created my account last year but started posting this year, I've followed your tutorials and I believe it's really gonna help me

[@DanOttawaPOGO]

Great Advice but obvious question #1 - What editing software do you use and how did you learn?

[@carsnob]

I bet he using like davinci resolve or even adobe premiere or whatever its called for video

[@ZombieHouseFresnoCA]

no one likes sharing the top secret stuff but let us let u in - some people use Sony Vegas, some people use student-accounts on Adobe premiere - there are options out there mr. DanOttowa!

[@The.Pop.Finder]

[@thelalasistersshow]

Omg I love every single one of John’s videos!! More please! This is the most entertaining “learning” video I’ve ever watched! And highly valuable! As a relatively new YT channel, I just recently learned these edits after publishing over 50 long form videos and so it was so nice to see that I’m on the right track! (Everyone needs that little pat on the back sometimes)

OMG, it is amazing what you did here! I wish I had the time& skills to do it. But how about creators who want to put the message out, with good intentions, but they still have a 9-5 job in the meantime or other time consuming activities in their lives? Many of us could benefit from some easier to implement tips. Because you make many people feel that they have no chance😂 You are just too good.
