Even though making money is a great thing to have, starting a KZbin channel should be about finding your *passion* and turning it into videos. That way, you'll be much more inclined to be consistent since you genuinely enjoy what you do! 👌🏻

I want to make Videos about something I'm passionate about as a way to meet others that are into it also and I want to start a business in this one particular space, but I am not Technical at all. And I don't enjoy the editing process at all its not coming easy to me but I'm seeing it as a necessary evil

[@MX-CO]

For example he says to buy am external hard drive, I bought one but have no clue how to use it. And for me the hardest part has been just moving video around to where I need them to be

Finally someone explains an and b roll. I'm new to video editing. Like i've never made a video yet. I have a lot of a roll from a camping trip. I've downloaded some software (wish i would have seen this sooner so I could try fantasia), purchased a music source, and now i'm trying to learn the steps. I've seen several but this video is the best i've seen. I appreciate how you explain everything. Clear and concise. Many thanks. I have subscribed.

This was FLAWLESS I’ve watched many videos and homie you killed this very descriptive in a short period of time. You’ve earned another like an a new subscriber thanks my friend.

[@JamesCAsphalt8]

This is a great video for beginners (which I am). It is really organized and your pace is not too fast to follow like some of the starter videos I have watched. Moreover, the program you recommend starting with is pretty simple. Some people recommend programs that are so complex, it takes weeks to really get effective. Great energy in the video too! As a professional presenter, I know how important energy is and your energy is great!

Would love to know how you create the talking head circle in the upper left while the rest for the footage plays? Great video thanks!

[@EssentialOrigami]

I get that effect from inserting the talking head as a Picture-in-Picture (sometimes called PIP), and then cropping it to a circle using the 'mask' feature. This is in InShot, but there should be a way to do it in most programs

[@Rowiethemelon]

THANK YOU!

Ive found that when you pursue something for fun instead of focusing on the end result, you tend to have a lot more success. Caring too much about the destination instead of the journey can cause ppl to inadvertantly sabotage themselves. So Im just gonna practice 1 hour a day for fun. At the very least Ill have learned how to do a fun, new hobby and if this hobby just HAPPENS to earn me some extra money down the road, thats cool. If it doesnt I still learned something. 🙂

[@ChristianityExplained]

Hi Omar @Think Media. I do love your tech reviews and insights related to podcasting and KZbin. Unfortunately, I have a pet peeve that's born out of my frustration at the lack of content related to studio headset and BTE hearing aid. What am I talking about? It's not just you, Omar. I have a severe hearing loss in both ears and monitoring the audio is a tricky. Thankfully, I am wearing a powerful behind the ear hearing aid. Plus, I'm using a 14 watt speaker to help. Here's the problem. I do understand that a studio headset can help with monitoring the audio portion of your video or podcast. Unfortunately, these over the ear headset interfere with my hearing aid and cause and loud & annoying feedback in my right ear. I'm using a Samson SR850 studio headset. Great set. Since KZbin is supposed to be a great search engine, I thought, "I can't be the only KZbinr or podcaster with this problem! Surely, someone must have done a video on this problem." Not really. I was able to piece together what caused the problem. I needed a headset that sits on the ear NOT over the ear. Do you think people may be interested in that; especially with the growing # of KZbinrs and podcasters that may wear a hearing aid.

please! I blinked and the start to finish tutorial had finished. He didnt say anything other than keeping things in folders.

[@emmybisong743]

Thanks for the briefing, I just got some few questions. 1. For B. Row , what does the clip actually brings to the video because you are actually muting it or is it just the background? 2. Camtasia software does it work offline? Can it be installed in a laptop or phone? 3. The text is more like a subtitle or a title to a particular segment of the video? 4. What if I don't want to upload it to KZbin but to get it delivered to a client?. Thanks as I wait for a positive response...

[@GreeniusGenius]

If it’s a Mac, if you use iCloud, you can wait for the stuff to sync over the the Photos app, or import stuff using the Image Capture app (you’ll need to plug your phone into the computer for this), or AirDrop the files, if it’s a PC, if you plug in the iPhone, the stuff should be inside the DCIM folder under the iPhone’s drive in File Explorer.
