How I Film & Edit My Videos *no gatekeeping*

I get asked a lot about my camera gear, editing software and general tips for starting a youtube channel so I'm spilling all of my secrets in this beginner's guide to vlogging!
P.S. I totally forgot to talk about the importance of music! I spend hours just sourcing the right tracks for a video because it heavily influences the storytelling and emotion. I get all of my copyright free audio from Epidemic Sound and Thematic (both paid subscriptions).

It's amazing to see how your filmmaking process as evolved on YT! I can really soo so much effort and time put into putting out the best quality

[@gracecanlas]

Love hearing your creative process! It’s so telling that you don’t really plan out your content and just record the way you live and tell the story from there. The authenticity really comes through in your videos. Keep it cominnnnn.

[@SailorNom]

Geeez I feel you at “planning” part… not planning is making your life much harder as a youtuber and I burn out very quickly because of that… but thank you for inspiration! I definitely gonna change that! ❤

[@AlexandraBarbin]

Thank you for sharing! I’ve always loved your videos and it’s really inspiring to see your thought process on your vlogs. Every new video, your style/editing has improved and it’s nice to hear that you’re also learning as you go. My vlogs are literally just me trying things out and hoping for the best 😅

[@chloeshih]

You’re truly an artist, freesia!! Thank you for showing your process and gear! I lowkey have followed your work and have found a ton of inspiration from it 💕

[@gauri2581]

[@krystalmaya_]

[@sheenasiao]

Freesia, thank you so much! I always felt a bit weird acting on getting inspired from watching creators like you. But I love how you're so open for people to create

[@Jayquel]

Great guide for building a vlog from production to post! Can’t wait to try making one!

[@BlueberryBoogie]

So glad you made this I’ve had so many questions about vlogging and youtube vids that you answered. Also that part about the intro and taking inspiration from the Euphoria intro?! No wonder I always love your intro *chefs kiss*

[@lykuh]

Your personality >>>

[@TVEunice]

This vlog is so helpful! I have to ask in terms of typography; what font do you use in your vlogs?

[@krysin]

If you get a pop filter itll stop those audio issues with your Ps

[@annacg1000]

❤

[@BRENDiiTA77]

Where did u get ur earrings from ?! Also thanks for the tips 🙌🏽

[@essasdfghjkl5713]

OMG😍

[@Preschool4yo-7yo]

👀💙Even though i'm not personally familiar with those gears i evaluate how much you got through bad and good experiances. In addition i only admire you've finally had explaining ability others can't all functions of each gear. Next you'll adopt in details?!.. Hope you announce new information general people never know about and for me too. I really know you're artistically and graphically good at things i'm also interested in. 🖤 Spend time to what you want to!! 💛❤️I don't like you wearing hat by the way. 😂🤭🤗🤣👋🤨

[@Stubby1031]

What settings do u use for your iphone and for your camera?

[@davidparnell3241]

Good video

[@astri.aitko_]

what about music? I still use the free audio from KZbin Studio 😆 because now I don't know how to get good audio without copyright issues :(

[@TheArmfarkLife]

Do you delete the footage and Premiere Pro files once you've posted everything? I'm finding out that I'm such a video/photo hoarder and I'm tired of needing "more storage space"....

[@freesiapark]

I hoard all my footage and run through a 4TB SSD once a year!

[@TheArmfarkLife]

@@freesiapark Oh snap... Not gonna lie, I was semi-hoping for someone to say they toss it all so I can guilt-free do the same hahaha thanks for the info! I'll go hunt for some external drives lol. Love and appreciate your videos!

[@user-up9qh3fg1w]

염색하셨네

[@vaughnhart3342]

too cute... you could probably say the alphabet in Hangul and I'd say the same thing. Why not take from silent film?This is not about you being silent... but using other things to express in addition to voice.n My only critique on the POV of inanimate objects is focus... you have a well constructed scene but nothing is in focus... or nothing moves your through the photo... thing Renaissance art composition. Like the story so too the scene.

[@_ashleyyylim]

This would be exactly what I’m looking for when I started out filming/vlogging! So thank you for filming this with transparency and putting this out there! 🥹🫶🏼🫶🏼✨ For my takeaway tho, I think vlogging is ultimately documenting moments in life and sharing it to like minded people🫶🏼

[@Jesykel]

I work backwards too 😂 it takes a lot of work to plan, I love to go with the flow and experience the burn out🥲

[@perhapsanya]

Thank YOU Freesia 🤍
