[@SeelenmagieOrakelBotschaften]

Hi Think media, thank you very much! Unfortunately the code doesn't work for me 😞 it says code has expired

[@MilesAwaywithUs]

I like Cyberlink PowerDirector premium version on my phone for now, but the size of larger video files definitely maxes out my storage space 😐

[@snakeamazon]

hi

[@AdventuresWithRoan]

I'm trying to make my first video but i don't know how to make the video itself.. Can yall make a tutorial of how to make a KZbin video?

[@johnnypezona9513]

I use Filmora and I think it's the best! It has the best of both world - it is beginner friendly but also has pro features (audio editing -EQ, Chroma Key for green screen).

[@NostalgiaPicker]

I'm watching, learning and becoming a little bit better everyday. Thanks Sean👍👍

[@TrueFacts4u2]

What software do you recommend to start?

[@yousefveartist]

Just a heads up, in the Davinci Resolve section at 4:21, your editor is talking about features that are in Davinci Resolve STUDIO, not Davinci Resolve, the free version. Magic mask and auto captions are STUDIO features only and are not in the free version of Davinci Resolve.

[@johnclay7644]

good discussion multiple editors are also useful. informative content

[@PapasGems]

I like the content from this channel. The info in this video is good. Thanks for sharing.

[@MarionChapmanArtist]

Fabulous summary, thank you so much

[@shikita007]

I love this video. I want to start youtube and know nothing about editing and have been using that as a crutch to not get started. This showing me that I can jump in and use cap cut to get started and if I really want to learn more about it I can look into a better/ more professional program like Resolve

[@ricardonunobastos3357]

i am starter and because of you i am going to give a star try with cap cut , dont want to start with difficult apps , thanks !

[@van-khalidmcgee9881]

Thanks for this in depth video on what editing programs are the best depending where u are in your editing journey you guys are truly awesome for your contribution towards helping people get better in this space thank you Soo much

hello dear... are you looking for video editing job??

[@christian_the_armstrong]

This was so helpful, thanks guys!

[@LigmaMaul]

interesting video with the advancements of these editing software's making things so easy now a days it almost starts to take away from what great editors used to have to go through to get used to a software

[@KASHYAPSEVERYDAYVLOGS]

Great info thanks a lot

[@riveralvarez7517]

Good video, but I think that the main problem with people doing KZbin now is their lack of strategy. They come up with ideas and upload them and post them straight away. They may be motivated for a couple months and may upload 40 videos in that time. 40 videos could be 40 or 20 weeks instead of 2/3 months. It's better to batch and post consistently (I also recommend using a little bit of Famester, so you can make that content viral almost immediately). Don't post everything straight away, it helps to avoid burn out...

[@IsiomasSpace]

Thank you for this, but pls what's famester

[@mr.croissant7960]

[@ExperimentalKana]

why you say that when you have 100 subs

[@dcfootball1]

​@@ExperimentalKanaIt's all bots I think

[@conor-_C]

Thanks for this

[@ascensionhealingsounds]

Thanks for the video. Descript has transcript editing that I haven't seen in capcut, Premiere Pro, or riverside. The transcription editing with Descript can make editing really easy. Sidenote Movavi is similar to imovie

[@ThinkMediaTV]

Nice! We use Gling.ai to do transcribe editing... you then can import that into Resolve, Premiere, and Cap Cut and edit from there

[@ascensionhealingsounds]

@@ThinkMediaTV I'll have to look into it. Thanks for the information 🙂

[@SeptienPatterson]

$300 full price for Davinci Resolve Studio seems much better than paying monthly for Premier Pro

[@AMP8424]

I hate subscriptions.

[@SLURPZZZ4461]

yeah to me thats what it sounds like

[@itsaprily]

Yes! And would love some capcut tutorials! I had moved from DaVinci to Capcut recently and it had just been so much more efficient and easy to use!

[@KIDNEPHRITE]

Is Capcut really good I’m getting ready to switch from hit film to either da Vinci or CapCut da Vinci runs so laggy for me though!

[@GGjaz]

​@@KIDNEPHRITE Personally, Capcut has worked really well for me! I switched from imovie to Capcut. I mainly edit on my phone. There's tons of freeway editing in Capcut! It's really easy to navigate once you start using it for a couple days, weeks, etc. Just like in the video, it's awesome for professional use and beginner use leaning more towards making better KZbin videos. Also, I haven't had any issues with lagging or anything. Honestly, the main "worry" is the app will crash if there's a butt ton clips, edits, and all that, but that's pretty much expected since all apps get breaking points. from time to time.

[@jamesrara]

Premiere rules.. Always looking for more clients to edit for!

[@brianstocks596]

Appreciate the video, very clear and transparent for a beginner like myself lol 🔥

[@vicariousfitnessthroughchr3047]

Thank you! This is helpful. I'm going to see if I can download a free trial of Capcut. I have been using Davinci Resolve for the clips I post on Instagram, but I want to move toward full length fitness videos here on KZbin. So I think Capcut might be the way to go. But can you record videos in Capcut like in Final cut pro?

[@AS-oj3cw]

Helpful!

[@Kim-Jong-Un_SupremeLeader]

Hello think media can you make a video about Filmora in 2024? i wanna learn this software.

[@ArmandoMedia]

well analysed

[@szmsz]

Good video 😊 Thanks❤ I use canva and I'm happy with this software-ul. What it borders me on canva is that you can't upload more 1024 mb

[@Krutika_Volvoikar]

Hello ... Your videos are nice😊

[@LaniMavaAsmr]

WOW I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL😍

[@davidthescottishvegan]

I noticed the video editor built into windows wasn't mentioned. Neither was Wondershare's Filmora, Cyberlink's Power director and there are other options so I don't think it's a fair review video without them.

[@Anangelfromabove]

What’s the best for simple transitions like cuts and background music?

[@TheTechieWay]

What do you think about Canva as a video editor? I am very satisfied with it.

[@venusawaken6656]

Total beginner here. Could I use CapCut PC, download the video, then upload that CapCut edited video to Davinci Resolve without any issues?

[@BumpkinBros]

Capcuts background remove only works 75% and it struggles when you have more than a few reasorces. It also crashes often and will struggle heavily with longer videos. I have a galaxy ultra 21 with 16gb if ram and a beefy oc and it stuggles often but Davinci Resolve worjs ok on pc

[@captainkittles]

I'm a somewhat new editor,, looking to document the process for restoring a farmhouse from the 1950s. Not sure what software to choose. I've got 600 pics and 100+ videos of the process so far, looking for the best option to create a renovation/restoration video

[@GenXDino]

Is there one editing software for editing videos for KZbin and podcasting?

[@niks966]

Thank you...

[@theetravelingwriter]

Great video! I record using a DJI Pocket 3 and iPhone 14 Pro Max. For some reason, when I color grade in CapCut, it just always looks like low resolution. Especially when I use the iPhone. People say to adjust the color space, but I tried and still wasn't impressed in the color. Any ideas for how to get the best color in CapCut?

[@iadeelworld]

Yeah it happened with me as well. I think we should move to different software in this regards.

[@theetravelingwriter]

@@iadeelworldI was thinking that. Maybe I will swing back to back to Final Cut Pro. Glad it’s not just me. Thanks!

[@iadeelworld]

thanks for sharing a remedy. Is it paid or not?@@theetravelingwriter

[@pauloprocha]

And about powerdirector 365?

[@GardenCorners]

Great video! What about Filmora?!

[@UgoDraws]

Would like to ask, if you can get the same quality as capcut PC, when exporting a video using capcut for Mobile?

[@anna-gt2mu]

A

[@mikethomas5350]

What about Techsmith Camtasia?

[@spleenful]

Which one has an option to have a screen+face camera? The basic one?

[@johnygthing]

Ok i need something simple for basic video editing ,,im dont want anything with video length limits and that supposts mt2s/avchd files so not capcut ... also something i can just buy rather than subscriptions,,,,any suggestions thanks?

[@lilianagomezyt]

Do you have to pay for resolve

[@durbar71tv36]

Very nice system

[@FatWhalen]

Hey I’m trying to film and drop a street part (skateboarding video) this year and I’ve never edited videos on a computer but I am pretty tech savvy. I’m looking for a software I can put all my clips together and put what ever songs I want over it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

[@dogesrules2264]

imma try capcut, i rlly need something to clip things out of videos cus sometimes i accidentally say stuff that may go a bit over the top and i wanna clip those out ngl i didnt know capcut could be used on pc ill try to learn it tho cus its the best i got rn ( my pc is so bad obs says its too old so i also need help with that )

[@sidartthabezbora]

What about Canva video ?

[@donniebee]

can i do the same type edits on ipad pro?

[@Bill_Sonya]

PPro and Capcut Pro can stand toe-to-toe with DaVinci all day long.. I mean... not unless you're doing paid work for say, Disney, Pixar or Pepsi lol... Adobe Suite is great!

[@iadeelworld]

There is no way in capcut to fix resolution. Otherwise it's a great product.

[@TomSeb.]

the thing with capcut is it oftn run errors. an error i got recently: timeline doesnt show image - only could fix by restart. another is that auto-caption doesnt work at all - sometimes it cuts away whole clips of conversation

[@Divine_healing]

Does cap cut do transcription?

[@Infotokev]

Laughs and jeers understood; but, what about Blueberry Flashback? I have used this in the past - but no one talks about it. Is it that terrible, or just bad marketing. Great content dudes, keep it up.

[@FundamentalFitnessOver40]

I tried capcut but it wont let me export in 4K, so after youtube compression comes in my video doesnt look good. I want to upload my edited video in 4K to get the best compression fromyoutube

[@vegasrenie]

CapCut vs Filmora?

[@AREEONTHEDON]

I started with iMovie, move to final cut pro, then capcut more effects easy to use. Now i just brought limosity its $30. I iMovie kept crash on me.

[@RustBucketMayhem]

*Camtasia?*

[@joshVcastro]

9:36 this hit hard.

[@Victor-el7ze]

What about content without appearing in front of the camera? Is it the same applications?

[@336offroad7]

What do you guys think about Movavi ?

[@adrianwieczorek1657]

I donkey know what I’m doing wrong but maybe someone can help me. ALWAYS my video on output is different quality than on input. I bought CATCUT and set up it video to max and 4K. I recorded video originally on Sony a7IV at 4K 60p and same settings put on output but quality is different. Someone can help?

[@deesdream7883]

Why do they make it so difficult to edit verticle video?

[@EricHillAuthor]

Isn't CapCut limited to only 15-minute videos or less?

[@Candyapplebone]

I use LumaFusion on my iPad. It works for me but i don’t have any subs and my videos are shit. I’m thinking about buying a home computer so i can “video edit like the pros”, not sure if i should go with a cheap Mac mini or go for a windows pc.

[@BecauseWhyNot660]

Why do so many KZbin videos have music that sounds like the Chipmunks trying to sing, but at a faster or slower speed?😂 So annoying!

[@b4ds33d]

Because instead of doing something interesting, they do what everyone else does. Creatively bankrupt. Also, they are doing it for clicks. It’s no longer a labor of love, unless the love is money.

[@shreyasiroy781]

Beginners option for Android phone please... In India capcut isn't available

[@TheJohnAnderson]

Which one is most efficient?

[@NatesFilmTutorials]

CapCut and iMovie are probably easier to get up to speed with. But there’s always going to be a learning curve. Becoming proficient in one and implementing keyboard shortcuts and presets massively improves productivity!

[@EastZulu]

Capcut is the future, i wanna move there.

[@thebl8nlyblatantnetwork]

Super facts

[@jayocean4724]

I'm new and need to figure out how to edit

[@rainynight02]

I juat downloaded capcut Tried to mess around to get a feel for it... It didn't want to do anything I was trying to do. It stoped letting me go back to edit a text over the video, even though i was in the section to edit that again... Parts of it were avaiybut ithers weren't. This is... Going to be an annoying learning curve.

[@greatsc0tt455]

Do you think starting with CapCut would make resolve easier in the future

[@ThinkMediaTV]

There might be a little learning curve. When I moved from Premiere to Resolve it took me a few months to get the hang of it. But I think getting started is the more important factor!

[@greatsc0tt455]

I completely agree. I am new to editing and CapCut might be a good start. Resolve is very overwhelming.

[@AlkuntarGaming]

I still prefer Premiere Pro. I can do every effect mentioned in the video on it in a fast and easy way too.

[@MotivaNaija]

Capcut is so underrated

Agreed!
