[@ETANI83]

me too, I always be feeling like it's easier for others than me...I can see everyone has the same stuff to overcome ie...laziness.

[@BriaVerina]

Before I even watch the video I want to say THANK YOU! No other youtubers say how they edit their videos or what they use because they think it gives them some sort of edge over the smaller not so popular youtubers or something. I don't know... But anyways, thank you for not being selfless. you're awesome! Wow, I'm so excited to watch! :D

[@DelsOgun]

You say shameless, I say selfless! Thanks for this video Maya, very very useful! x

[@DebErney]

Lots of information, very cutely presented. I've watched a few of your videos and you always seem to be having a blast.

[@lissawatchesyoutube]

Thank you so much. I've wanted to start a KZbin channel for so long, and had no clue where to start. These series of videos have helped so much.

[@shaaanxo]

Super helpful :) I need to look at more features on iMovie haha I WANT BOKI! :P

[@BeeUtifullyMade]

Maya, you are such a doll for sharing such awesome tips! Looking forward to your lipstick vid! :)

[@TheHershee]

[@DamonAndJo]

The key to life is to have fun! I love this!

[@legacy2k1]

[@tyratakes1]

[@Msdeekay]

thanks for sharing Maya, great timing! just got a hand me down mac book with final cut x. Thanks so much for continually sharing your tech details whenever you can!

[@mikaoliveri]

[@2009TalkingHead]

Love the stay in school proviso at the beginning of your videos lately... ^-^

[@dgeneratebe4utyqu3en]

SOOOO grateful you posted this. I love your editing style!

[@LivingMyLexLife]

I'm so thankful for you sharing your knowledge about photography and techy stuff! Really appreciate it

[@KelyrinYourSafeSpace]

This was sooo cool, I needed this video !! I look forward to the video about music, because when I edit my videos I look for houuuuuuuurs to find a music that suits to my recipe... And it's very very frustrating !! Thank you so much for sharing what you know :)

[@abbieamavi]

I still have so many questionssss but this video was super 🌶

[@kiwthebeauty]

The color balance tidbit is very important! Thank you I didn't think about that! Thanks for sharing!

[@ShanellePersaudMUA]

Maya, You are soooo selfless. You give sooo much. Youre not selfish about your skill at all, your lighting video and photography videos help me so much and this one has as well!! I bought the ring light you suggested and its wonderful! Thanks a ton and keep being the wonderful shameless that you are! xo

[@musi109]

Do you film things in chunks or as one big ongoing long film that you then split in to parts and then edit as was done here? I just don't understand if you have to film things in separate parts or if you can just film for an hour straight for example and then proceed to divide?

[@shamelessmaya]

musi109 oh it depends, but i usually film in small bits. the longest i'll film is 10mins straight but that's rare...usuallly when i'm talking straight to camera like in this video

[@kitty-em7de]

What computer do you use?

[@MegaSole85]

+JoeGamer 360 It looks like Final Cut Pro

[@oneliamoreira32]

+Sole Fab op

[@trentongurltrusdale9204]

I think it's really nice how you show the process of taking photos and of editing. I'm going to turn my nephew on to your channel. He gets all geeked up about this.

[@InHerBeauty]

I always love your videos!!! This as well as the many others you share with your audience are amazing. Though I am a beginner, I was able to follow and pick up the hang of it. Edited my first vid while watching yours!!! Thanks a million times over!

[@mrsbeautyosauruslex]

I have how you said that there is a lot of self involvement involved, haha! I just started making videos and get sick of editing because I have to hear my voice over and over, haha :)

[@PiecesofNika]

Awesome video!!! I'm so glad you shared your secrets with us!! You're grown out blonde has turned into ombre`!! Cute!!!!!! Thanks for sharing! xoxo!!

[@MissDarcei]

[@Mizosoop]

I am a tech geek, so gadgets, apps, and I used to teach Hip Hop. I love dancing. And I'm a designer and writer. Lol. I gotta' get Final Cut Pro. This Adobe transition is driving me crazy. I have yet to switch to the subscription. Thanks for the tips.

[@Mizosoop]

Lol.

[@AmberHelena]

[@10v34b13]

when you started singing over the beat i was jamming right along with you! lol You're so awesome, fun, and EXTREMELY INFORMATIVE! i cannot stress that enough because some videos will speed through and I'll get lost and give up. So glad i found you girl :)

[@JessicaSezz]

I stumbled upon your account maybe a week or two ago... Binge watched it and finally filmed, edited and uploaded my first video today! Thank you!! ❤️

[@SeanaSparkle2]

how long does it take you to get a video edited? I been filming and editing now for the past 5 yrs and I even go to school for it now, but it takes me so many hours to get one video edited. I put so much time into it. It's fun but the editing takes so much time. I had a video project for school and I was so behind because i took so much longer to edit my video than everyone else. Although I did feel that my video was edited a bit more professionally than everyone else's lol, but hey

[@AnoniMArtShowPhotography]

***** make videos in smaller rezolution ... like 720p ... and export it at the same ... keep audio at 128 kbps ( for youtube is enough ) ... and export AVI or Mp4 ... Also depends of your pc performance ... the rendering takes a lot of time ... try to use another software ... Adobe Affer Effects ... or Adobe Premiere ...

[@ModMINI]

DeeJay AnoniM It's not the export/rendering that takes hours, it's the actual editing and creative work - sorting through all the footage and making artistic decisions.

[@TheDrumergod]

DeeJay AnoniM is adobe affter effects a good software to edit videos for youtube?

[@ITSDXINX]

yes! it takes me 9-16 hours to edit!!!! sometimes i do it over the course of 2 days lol

[@Shineldove]

Same. I have so much respect for youtubers now that I started my channel.

[@DebbieNy90]

what recording software are you using to record the pc screen?

[@shamelessmaya]

Quick time! It's super simple. Hit "file" then "new screen recording" and hit the recording button to start and again to finish

[@DebbieNy90]

Shameless Maya thank you very much!

[@userhjfooflsj2244]

I use vivavideo and kinemaster

[@yetundemitchell]

I have to honestly say you have one of the most informative channels on KZbin when it comes to sharing your knowledge. I thank God for you and all of your help :0)

[@tracilaci2562]

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! I have been looking for what seems like forever for someone to specifically show how they edit their KZbin videos! Anyways, love you boo 😊

[@priyakumar6697]

Thank you for your tips and tricks! Very helpful :)

[@Lifegemswithslm]

I love editing!! Its a tedious process, but that finished product is all worth it. Somtimes there is a vision in mind, other times you just get it as you edit the footage. Just got the urge to edit something lol. Great work.

[@nycmac95]

thank you!! thank you!!! for providing such helpful and interesting content

[@MsTrinatren]

Love it! You are awesome Maya! You teach us so much. And, I geek out to make-up & dope beats!

[@RemediosJTongol]

Just watched this right now. I edit the same way. I always watch from the beginning over and over again just to make sure the footage goes to the beat of whatever I choose. I have not started a KZbin channel yet but have been thinking about it. I'm a filmmaker and wedding videographer but I'd love to a lifestyle channel including makeup tutorials too. You've been one of my inspirations and I always look forward to watching your videos every week. ;) Much love from LA.

[@RemediosJTongol]

I sure will! And I'll get to hashtag #beshameless :)

[@Sarah7MUA]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. As well as being helpful to those who use such tools, I hope it also makes certain people (who criticise and bash youtubers for the tiniest details) realise how much time and effort goes into making these videos.

[@Ebonybeauty20]

I geek out on Photography, music and getting the latest games via Xbox360..I love you videos! You are my inspiration!
