How To: Make Your FIRST Travel Video (3 Easy Steps!)

[@MaunoKoivistoOfficial]

I have to say, after watching your channel for years, I genuinely think you might be the best in the world at explaining travel video concepts to beginners. What you have achieved through your body of work is genuinely remarkable. As an educator, I appreciate the talent that goes into not only mastering these concepts, but also teaching them to other people.

[@ThomasAlexNorman]

Wow, thank you for that.

[@travelingcouplecarlosandwendy]

I have to 100% agree with you!!

[@dusshan1]

well said. Not everybody is also a good teacher. I see very high value as beginner in these videos

[@Kobiljon_kundaligi]

I was about to make an online travel vlogging course purchase. But after watching this, I decided to learn for free on KZbin. I got what i need for a start. Very informative, thank you.

[@samuellewis4042]

I found this incredibly helpful at the start. The idea of affectively having an idea of a storyboard was a priceless bit of advice so thank you for your help.

[@74mili]

I really like how you broke down the story telling, I appreciate what you have provided and would love to see more videos with longer vlog style tutorials, cheers mate!

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

Thank you for coming back to this style of video. We appreciate you Thomas!

[@ThomasAlexNorman]

Appreciate you for watching !

[@matthewbishop5176]

Nice! Straight to the point. Value-added production and no promotions.

[@brendanwaters9646]

So helpful! I’ve never tried to do a proper travel video, so I’m going to put it into practice on my next trip!

[@MobileStagePhOfficial]

so good ! thanks ! subbed. i just came from siargao and i made alot of travel videos that i realized that has no structure . love it man,

[@CycloneGunworks]

"5TB of footage that you'll never edit" that landed so hard, I'm dying dude.😂

[@trishalim]

Thank you for this video! 😊 0:35 step 1 ~ select your shoots around the story 1:56 step 2 ~ shoot for flow (where you are now, continous thinking how you're going to arrive where you going to arrive) 4:18 Step 3 ~ Let the song dictate the structure of your video I always slap on my song after editing the video 🤦🏻‍♀️ bad habit! I need to change. Also i tend to put in too many clips at the front half of video, loop my song then rush thru after the mid to end of video cos i didnt do step 3 😁

[@moon-watcher1169]

Thank you for sharing your ideas. I was looking for some great advice for an upcoming trip and your video was spot on. I liked how you said we should take videos to tell a story. So much better than pasting together a bunch of random shots.

[@adrianafrancelino5619]

Você conseguiu dar uma aula inteira em um vídeo! Sensacional 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@samgabrielbuena8037]

Very helpful!

[@Matt_warren_photography]

This is by far the best tutorial on making a vlog video answered all my questions so thanks for that! Question regarding music... What words do you you to find the music. Sometimes I have a rough idea on the style of music I want but I cant always find excatly what im wanting.... Any tips on that?

[@travelfoodielove]

Omg thank you so much for this!!! I love that ya back on KZbin This helps us so much Thomas! You really inspire us! ❤

[@ColoBeauPhotog]

Love your work and clear direction. I always struggle to actually film. Once I get somewhere I just stay in the moment and tell myself I'll film later. Plus, the wife hate me filming her. Hahaha

[@lonniesfilmmaking333]

Man you're so naturally funny that intro cracks me up big time Cheers so much again

[@MrG1881]

keep up the good work...cheers

[@Yoobztv]

Sir thank you for sharing i learned from it i love doing videos i guest its my passion and i like how you explained about it 🙏

[@Sourabhwastaken]

Thank you so much for this one!🥺

[@weekendcrew.]

I’m that beginner you talk about in this video. I have 1/2tb of footage and can’t really find a way to put it together to make a decent video. Do you have any advice on how to do it or should I leave it alone and plan better next time. Thanks

[@sakthivela477]

Could you suggest the free version of editing software if any.

[@aaaaachew]

This is fantastic! Thank you. It would be great to do be able to do these edits to this quality on your phone but I guess that’s some time away.

[@ThomasAlexNorman]

Almost there!

[@ishayaukwen]

Im here after one year and im happy with the results i got... thank you Thomas

[@Just_Relax_Creations]

I am so glad to see these instructional videos again!

[@ehubusa]

Love it, Thomas! I'm a new follower.

[@YoyaFabulosa]

Very helpful! I've noticed when working with a editor that they plan the soundtrack first, and it's exactly because of everything you listed on step three. Thank you!

[@PatrickHoesly]

Great advice. Thank you.

[@joshtavernier]

Awesome video thanks for sharing! 😊👍🏻

[@kapangmitkong698]

Great. I am also planing to get into travel video making and i have found your channel to be great.

[@aziz.copies]

[@Axxonal]

Well done ... Easy but efficient....

[@Ihsan_Sakti]

Keep spirit...I love my country...

[@officialrobertcenox]

thank you so much for the tips btw any advice which camera to use ?

[@gabriela-rigon]

Learned a lot. Thank you!

[@kumamon00]

Hi Thomas, thank you for the video. Last night I literally applied that step 3 of your tips. My choice of track literally fit my edits. But, somehow TikTok (where I uploaded it) muted it for some reason I can't understand, maybe copyrights. But I thought I edited the track modestly, lower the volume, give fade in and out, not using the entire track, but I still got muted. Can you give any tips on passing the sound copyright issues ?

[@AyandaMakhanya]

Great video Alex!

[@TravelwithLil8]

How do you find the music without copyright infringement?

[@arielzarate5969]

Epidemic sounds

[@ispeakmandarin]

You can get to some websites where you can get music for commercial use

[@chamaraweerasinghe5836]

[@imdezose]

[@supertravelboy]

Good information 😊

[@pantorillamilesbadilla2414]

what's is the title of the background music you did in your intro?

[@LionMartell]

Something about this particular video hit home. A “click” moment. I went to France and basically made a montage and didn’t understand why there was no story lol thank you

[@sajaalgburi3479]

I’ve been traveling alot and taking amazing photos and videos of the places. I want to start my you tube traveling channel but not sure how to start. Your video is helping me a-lot . I need to watch it again and take notes! Thank you

[@ThomasAlexNorman]

Yeah the Bali series with George was good times!

[@Travelmelogs]

Subscribing because of this video

[@Khaleddirecttravel]

Can we trip together to learn from your live action of a travel vlog?

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

So good I watched it twice! Gems in here and also a confirmation of things I've adapted into my style. Thank you Thomas! 👋🇨🇦

[@ThomasAlexNorman]

Awesome.

[@albertosantosgrow8538]

Very good

[@countrysidelifestyleskh8308]

Good video

[@frosty_soda]

Was in Bali in the 90s. What a dump it was then. 😂 Beautiful nature and the people were amazing. But definitely doesn't look like the Bali of today.

[@ElKaylOfficial]

because of your video i just hit the "S" button

[@maitravel1928]

👍👍👍

[@r34ct4]

Does it take away from experiencing the actual vacation?

[@Officialoshanna]

For someone who really enjoys being in the present as much as possible, it does! But, we’re all different. when I started vlogging I realized I was on my phone more than I was enjoying what i was recording. Me personally, it takes aware from the experience.

[@Jamshid_Elboev]

How doesn't this video have more views?

[@impalergaming5359]

OMG this sounds like a full time job … I rather take care of outsourcing business while travelling for myself … 😮

[@Утконос-г5д]

if you will be thinking like that all your vacation will be as a work week. its wrong

[@cypher686]

But making travel vlogs is a job
