Not Your Average Office (tour & work routine)

[@linda_lawson]

I think it's good to give viewers a peek at the amount of work that goes into your weekly episodes. This is only the post-production, Folks. I can't imagine how much thought and planning goes into preproduction. And then there is the execution of the plan! Those of us who work in production know. Thank you for all that you share with us. You tell great stories.

[@brettallenthomas]

Most people have no idea the amount of time editing, rendering and uploading a simple 20 minute video takes,, it's good that you show your viewers what it takes, as I'm sure they will appreciate your vid's all the more..

[@tylerandtodd]

All the time you spend color grading is so worth it...we talk ALL the time about how the quality is the absolute best on the platform! 😍

[@FiddlingwithmyWhistle]

yes... I hate color grading. I could spend a week doing it, and it would still look wrong 😩

[@airenesmiler6624]

I also appreciate that they don't have wildly fluctuating volumes, some videos on other channels are painful.

[@ariellesoullighting4309]

@tylerandtodd I was hoping you knew Jason's work! He's a real artist and he and Nikki are perfect complementary partners in the genre. I think only Tyler compares - nothing against your friends.

[@martijnvanbeek4387]

Agreed upon!

[@Elitist20]

How on earth they manage to do this week after week, making each video look like a million dollars, is astonishing.

[@AMD]

We get it, Jason. The names of the laptops we power can get a little, well, complicated. 😂 It was awesome getting to see how you both accomplish your work from virtually anywhere. Thank you for choosing AMD to power your curiosity!

[@jarateman6427]

Yeah it was a nice commercial for you.

[@sickjohnson]

AMD has been raising the bar big time recently...much appreciated! keep up the awesome work.

[@aeasthouse316]

But now with the new MacBook Pro’s - massive power (even on battery, no throttling), reduced heat and 5x the battery time, whisper quiet. Game changer.

[@MerLaw]

@AMD it would be cool if you kitted them out with some great gear the way linus tech tips & crew do it. im thinking SSD NAS long range mast router.... Just a thought.. :)

[@tomriley5790]

Switched to Ryzen when it first came out - not regretted it at all, video editing/rendering is what all those corees are particularly good at! Well done for all your hard work!

[@flyinggyros9745]

So for people that think your life is just peaches and cream, here is a dose or reality. Not only is this your life, it’s your job. And a full time job at that. Thank you so much for taking us along. We get to live a little of our lives through your eyes. Alan

[@Sommers234]

@Bobb Grimley just like with other electronic devices a lot of people use Audible and frankly don't worry a whole lot about typos

[@not1regret742]

@Bobb Grimley "Are not you a piece of work" should have a question mark.

[@pavichapin]

@Bobb Grimley All you did was prove yourself to be a tool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@katz2912]

@Bobb Grimley There should be their.

[@katz2912]

@Bobb Grimley You wrote, “No automated device has ‘hear’s’ in there dictionary base”. The correct grammar is “their dictionary base”.

[@arielblumenduft3293]

if any1 ever asked me "how d'you make it big on youtube?" i'd say 1. "become a professional" and then 2. refer them to your youtube channel. you do everything to the t and that shows and always has, constantly such high quality videos over so many years! i really appreciate the no-clickbait-titles (thank you nicki! :) and the honesty in all you do. i'm not a very techy person and i still enjoyed this video, because it's a wynn/wynn video :)

[@jvinot60]

As someone who works in the film industry, there are no red carpets where I work. I knew the depth necessary to put out such quality content, it was just nice to actually see it. Cheers

[@karenpolansky9097]

You’ve described why my own KZbin channel only has 6 videos on it. It’s a lot of work. Total respect for the two of you. Thanks and stay safe!

[@humblebee8028]

You two provide a professional, high quality product and it is a good thing to show the process so that we can all appreciate the work that goes into it. Each week I look forward to your video as do many folk and hope that you also find this work fulfilling and fun. Thanks guys!

[@edw.b856]

Some of us watch for their juvenile humor, too! 😂

[@gatmguru1]

And now I know why your videos look so great and very professional when my wife and I watch every Sunday. I have been watching since the RV days which convinced us to sell everything and live full time in a Class A RV. When you switched to sailing and neither one of you had any experience in sailing I thought you were crazy but it took a lot of guts and determination in setting a path and executing the plan. We are inspired every week with the topics you share and the experiences you go through. I know when we run into difficulties I just think back on one of your episodes where things went sideways and how you kept your focus and resolved the problem. Great job as always. Just remember to have fun and love each other.

[@A_Healthy_Fit_Lifestyle]

My favorite thing to do on Sunday morning is to drink a cup of coffee and watch you both.

[@JohnKimzey]

When I talk with friends about your channel, I speak of your professionalism, positivity, and outright fun. Well done. Kudos to you both.

[@MrDonJBerg]

You are right..While they are just "human" and at times have "issues", I too love the positivity, photography and adventure.. A much needed break in a broken world

[@lajonesauthor]

Agree

[@billfields9716]

All of that technical stuff is Way Beyond me but it was still interesting just to see how you guys do it as viewers we don't understand how much actual work and time goes into making a simple 20-minute video so thank you very much for sharing I really appreciated it more now that I know how much goes into it anyway stay safe guys I look forward to your next post😎❤❤⛵

[@LVQ-so5th]

And then think of the time it takes to set up a shot. A drone shot of a shot of a shot.

[@maltesefan3157]

Isn’t it energizing to know how much you impact so many of us each and every Sunday morning? Thanks for the ride along.

[@brianshillito4909]

As both an audio engineer and a photographer I very much enjoyed this episode, be sure that your hard work and attention to detail is both noticed and appreciated! On a personal note, it has been my dream to visit New Zealand for many years and look forward to each and every new adventure you two produce...

[@catherineb6561]

WOW! Now I know why your videos are so easy to watch. The time you put into each one, produces a product that is beautiful, informative, entertaining and just so damn good!!!! I never jump ahead, there are no boring parts; in fact I often play sections over, to enjoy them a second time. And you always make me laugh (and cry). Thank you for all your hard work.

[@atomicclock455]

Thanks for sharing. Didn’t realize the complex process you need to go thru to -reduce these terrific Sunday treats. Way to go!!!

[@PixelSchnitzel]

Don't think that the pain and effort you put into thumbnails (or anything else, for that matter) goes unnoticed. Your work is genuinely excellent and widely appreciated!

[@carolynbain2190]

Thank you for all you do to bring us great videos. I have been following you for at least 6 months and look forward to your weekly videos. You will enjoy all that my country offers. I am really looking forward to seeing more of New Zealand thru your eyes. I've been to the treaty grounds a couple of times but seeing it thru your eyes makes me want to go and have another look. I live in the Bay of Plenty if you head this way. Once again a very big thank you for the huge workload to provide us with great weekly viewing.

[@mikes2294]

This video is a 10. Unbelievable how much work you have to put into your productions. It pays off because it shows. Great audio, vivid pictures, and superb color. Definitely a 10. You guys always leave me smiling after I watch your channel. Educational, Humorous, and uplifting.

[@davidhaggard6812]

You two are AMAZING. You have the wonderful ability to be diverse with content, make it interesting, and entertaining. Thank you for all you do so we can have a glimpse into the lives of the Wynns. One last thing, the attention to detail is noticeable and appreciated.

[@davedavenport8673]

Someone may have already mentioned, but I hope you have placed a reservation for Starlink Satellite service. Once they approve it for moving vehicles like RVs and boats, and once they get enough satellites up, it should prove to be a huge difference in your ability to communicate and also safety. Love everything about your videos. Top quality and professional. I work in episodic entertainment and your work is just as good, and considering the two person crew/talent and remote locations, likely better. Sometimes I don't know how you do it week in and week out and am thankful for the rest you both get when you take a week or two off. From various aspects of shooting, creating a story, editing, music, sound edit, VO, etc. All just really well done.

[@dustynsain8543]

I've been watching you for many years since you were in your RV. I never miss your updates from NZ because I really love that country. This video clearly shows how much work it is to do a weekly video post of the quality you produce. It makes me wonder how you did all this while you were doing all the boat repairs? What a grind. Thanks for everything you do.

[@tryNsomethingnew]

Love the editing stuff, thanks for the work flow... Very cool, time for a course LOL it took us the last year to create 3 courses and it was all day every day, but its done now and now we can get back to focusing on getting that boat.... cant wait to make a video with you guys....LETS GOOOOOOOOO

[@DeliaLee8]

You made what could have been a dull, unfathomable topic so interesting that I was disappointed when the video was over. I shouldn't be surprised - you make exceptional videos. And now we know why - the amount of time and professionalism you put into them! Thank you.

[@simonhantler8062]

its high time i became a patreon, well over due and being the best YT sailing channel and the first to inspire me to set sail. funny story i was looking for RV info online to do a ski road trip in usa (im from nz) and a YT channel poped up with these two slighltly geeky yet really interesting RVers, i was hooked and have been watching ever since. i never did the RV ski trip, swapped my house instead and now bought a yacht and getting rusty sailing skills back up. see ya out there this summer Wynnses.

[@cherylsibson2529]

Although you didn't need to confirm who, what, why, or when you do your work, thank you for your time, you took the time to explain your work and it's important to work showing the world the world.. for those who are interested in other parts of the world. You do a professional job of being an ambassador for the world.

[@blee456]

Love the Loupedeck! It's a game changer for editing!

[@sgoodsign8247]

Every one of your videos is truly like watching a film. The color correction is awesome Nikki, the cinematography is exceptional. Love your vids, and always look forward to Sundays.

[@jrakes1000]

I love watch you too ! 😊❤️🌲merry Christmas and a happy newyear! Take care

[@alaskabrandy1239]

It's great to get a how is it done video! My business partner and I are launching our seasoning business, and I am going to start doing cooking technique videos. I am not as skilled as you two, but I definitely enjoy the guiding video just when I needed to! Thank you!

[@richardg8651]

Lot of work but the effort shows as your videos are very well done .

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

Ah yes, the "commute". If that's your commute you really are living the life, better than driving or taking the commuter train! Working while seeing the world by sea, an office like no other

[@patrickjoneill5836]

Having watched your channel pretty much since the start of your sailing adventures I must say that I have always been impressed with the quality of your films. It's interesting to see the kit you use.

[@silkdog32]

Thank you for all your hard work, your the only boat family I follow, and it’s a life I’m sure I can only dream of having, thank you for letting me and my family live through yours!

[@robertcolvin3182]

Great episode. We take your great work for granted while sitting comfortably in our homes on Sunday mornings. No idea of the amount of commitment and work you all put into these episodes. Thanks so much and wishing you both a Merry Christmas and a great happy and healthy New Year. Safe travels....

[@djpiper7]

Your hard work sets you apart and we appreciate the incredible end product. Bravo!

Honestly the hard work you two put in absolutely shows. The video quality is always superb, sound is always great as well. Your content is always great as well!

[@bruceb7874]

Well so it is not all rainbow unicorns and swimming with the fishes. But watching these videos is best therapy for the sole that I have ever found on youtube. Merry Christmas you guys and remember the reason for the season!!!!

[@kandisnook1281]

WOW!!!! I had no idea of the amount of work, techy stuff that goes into your amazing videos. Good Grief you guys are amazing. I have seen over the years the incredible and amazing improvements and fine tuning of them. But seriously you two are just amazing, if you need to learn something, ... you do. Simple as that!!! However, its the perfecting of what you teach yourselves that is so so inspiring. Sailing, RVing, solar, video editing, mountain climbing, scuba diving, snorkeling, cooking on passage (Healthy cooking mind you) .............Thank you for sharing your life with us. You two are such a joy to watch. Thank you too for your inspiration!!!

[@SanDiegoTony]

Love all your videos but this behind the scenes was amazingly educational. I knew there was work involved but never imagined how much. You two do an amazing job.

[@louishayes-davies4945]

Wow I am totally amazed at how much time and energy that is involved and invested, thank you so much for sharing

[@Chris-NZ]

As a retired techie person with a tiny YT channel and fibre internet you get a big thumbs up from me for the amount of work you two put in. Happy Christmas from Auckland I hope you have been enjoying our Pohutukawa (NZ Christmas Tree) and their wonderfull coastal Christmas colour. Cheers and have a good one Chris :)

Hi Nicky and Jason, from a very breezy Antigua, just want to say I really appreciate all the effort that goes into your videos. I look forward to every Sunday and have total respect for the quality and attention to detail. Thank you 🙏

[@deborahl9736]

Very interesting everyday life on your boat. You've shared things things with us that would never have occurred to us (i.e. the Curiosity Printing Service). Stay Safe and Bon Voyage 💖💓💞💗

[@kmrbsc]

and the funny part is - you make it all look very easy!!! Thanks guys

[@Si-mc6dl]

Viewers only ever see the fun side of things. But of course, interest has to be generated some way. Didn't realise that it was around 40 hours of work a week. Worth it though. Love your videos.

[@Phyde4ux]

I've heard a common rule of thumb for KZbin content providers is one hour of editing per one minute of video. Clearly theirs is somewhat longer due to the constraints of boat life and the above average quality of their videos.

[@jeffcanar7294]

Delos and Uma have done similar episodes, and yeah, these sailing channels are putting in every bit of 40+ hours of effort per week, for a 20-25 minute video. So yeah, their views/patreons/subscribers etc... do enable the lifestyle. But to get the views necessary, it's a full time job equivalent of effort. These folks are lounging around day after day. Far from it.

[@harrisonchevy4452]

Well Winns, thanks 🙏 for the lesson on what is involved in making and maintaining a KZbin channel. Much more involved than I would have thought.

[@ronjh6372]

How in the world do you find the time to have fun?? My boat life would be feet up a drink and staring at the ocean. Well.. not all the time. Love you guys.

[@Catalina58601]

Thank You SO MUCH! For your hard work, your ethical examples, your love of animals, your attention to details, I could go on and on. Your channel led me to all the others I have enjoyed. Just Thank You so much for everything you do. I am so very glad that your computers are as hard working as you two! Happy Holidays and may the new year bring all goodness and light and wonderful adventures!

Wow! When do you find time to sail, plan routes, and see new sites? I'm exhausted just watching this episode. You both rock. Now take a break for some personal time.

[@fullpulse2000]

This video had the added bonus of giving understanding for what you're actually doing in the time and expertise that you do it. Y'all are both amazing in doing it, and making sure the product is not just a very high-quality but very interesting and giving understanding about what you do. Thank you both.

[@itsnotme07]

Yep, the Wynns are working until the cows come. Haha! As someone who's spent time at a local cable access station, helping shoot shows, edit video, be the remote video/audio guy, do audio and the ever important graphics....I've seen the job, and if you're volunteering, like I was, it's wicked fun. I could certainly see it getting crazy if I needed to upload or couldn't see the screen to edit (sun, wind, cows...) Thanks for the BTS action.

[@donnamanitu8673]

Sunday is my favorite day of the week because I know that I will see a new video from you two. After watching this video I have a whole new appreciation of the time that you put in for a 20 minute video. Wow, had no idea that it takes hours of work and the quality really shows in your videos.

[@richh9241]

I thought the process you used must have been pretty lengthy, because as others have said the production quality of your work is outstanding. Now I know why it's so good - you work really hard on it! Amazing content, as always.

Thanks for all you efforts. It shows in your videos.

[@petesheppard1709]

17 minutes of techno-jargon...Yeah, right--what they said! 😄 Honestly, it is eye-opening to get even a bare glimpse into what goes into your videos; thanks! I am also awed by the capability of two small devices; I can easily remember when the equipment would have filled _rooms_ !

[@georgecarney3083]

What a job with the media, just to get it right then the time needed to upload. On top of all of that there is route planning and sailing with watched to be done. I'm sure that 24 hours is not enough. What a great job all round and on a side note I'm now fully up to date with your sailing adventure.

Your videos are wonderful and your work is appreciated. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.

[@stevecagle2317]

I knew from first watching Kara and Nate from the beginning of their adventures and then you two that a lot of work goes into the videos. However, this just reinforces how hard you and other travel content creators work to provide us with awesome scenery, fun exploring, the ups and downs of sailing and the highlights of your lives. For all of this, I'm extremely grateful! 👍😊 Thank you!

[@enderdragoon]

This is exceptional behind the scenes goodies. I love seeing the work flow and what process you use. The ROG hardware is in a class of its own and is always my top choice in any pick for hardware. Somewhere around 80% of the computer hardware that makes up the 7 PCs within arms reach of my workstation is all ASUS and ROG. I'm curious if you've ever considered building a full desktop into a cubby in the boat, they can get quite compact and being able to replace parts would seem a very coveted feature with the moisture exposure. There are also PC builds that completely submerge the motherboard and primary components into cooking oil which would eliminate moisture impact to components. I deeply wish some of us land lubbers could help you with editing but it would take a tremendous amount of uploading to get any useful help with the process. Sounds like a NAS, or Network Access Storage, might be a good idea, they are great for working with files between devices, massive storage potential, and having lots of built in redundancy with HDDs in RAID in case any might fail (hot swapping drives for healing the RAID). Never enough tech details! Jason is right about that lol.

[@robertlewisvideo]

Awesome Quality and Content !!!! Thanks for showing us some of what you have to do to be KZbin Boating Superstars.
