PRODUCTION QUALITY - 11 Ways To Make Your Videos BETTER!

[@jeremyw4649]

Hey Becki, how about a side channel about design? I'd watch it. 20 minutes about kerning? It's what the people want. The influences of Swiss typography on famous logos. Do it!

[@snowen1]

Can confirm

[@EwanLim]

20 minutes sound short. I'd like to hear about the history behind kerning as well. Asian Typography? Yes please.

[@davebcn1]

instant subscribe

[@MikeDamazo]

I concur

[@TanmayBarri]

I agree!

[@hausbergmedia9361]

Love the video! Little correction from a fellow font nerd: - *Kerning* is the space between _two individual letters_ (e.g. if the lines of the letters AV are to close to / far from each other) - *Tracking* or *spacing* is the space between _all letters_ in a word and is what you mean when you're talking about the Cold Island title.

[@SenTiNel93]

Came here to say this! Glad someone else picked up on it :)

[@JaskaranSingh-rn7sk]

like seriously who else would give away secrets and knowledge for free like this ,,,,,THANK YOU!!!!

[@Crickethill]

Gimme 30 Minutes of Becki nerding out on typography and I‘ll watch the hell outta that video.

[@aliabdaal]

Great tips :) mirage is beautiful af

[@AreebIrshadSimplifies]

All right so Ali is here as well! :D

[@mehediplaydigital4847]

If Ali comments here, then I comment here lol.

[@PhilMTX]

Just painted our office/spare room with black matte, after discovering you guys. We are catching up slowly with the vlogs, one per day before bed. It’s great to see content that my wife and I both like as opposed to watch 2 different things on our phones. thank you!!

[@BeckiandChris]

Glad to hear you guys like watching together!

[@andreanicole2006]

OMIGOSH, just found you guys by accident and binge-watching your channel. Awesome content, fun and humorous delivery and the occasional S-bomb, effortlessly placed at just the right moment. Some new stuff, some "hey you're doing this right" stuff and looking forward to checking out more!

[@LaFocaNoMiente]

That fonts list was omg priceless, I'm an absolute fan of all the graphics in your videos. Thank you so much! And thank you so much in general, this is one of my favourite channels in KZbin.

[@rustykatt3870]

Thank you for the fonts ideas. Changed a ArcGIS presentation with your ideas. Who knew that it would make such a difference. Wow, the ultimate in cross training. 😃

[@EganFilm]

Loved it. Not enough content out there that GETS 👏 TO 👏 THE 👏 POINT. This is super ADHD friendly and actionable - I appreciate you!

[@brandonmcdonald6121]

Watching you get worked up about fonts is delightful. Almost as good as packaging.

[@BeckiandChris]

Omg LOVE packaging!

[@Crazy123Nathan]

Insta-click. Love to hear more knowledge coming from someone who knows what they're talking about. Keep up these great videos!

[@Dmogul]

the only channel i know of that can pack a bunch of great info into one video and make me want to watch 2-3 times in a row without getting bored. great stuff as lways

[@domdez8123]

I'd have listened to another hour of type talk. TYPE TALK: A CONVERSATION WITH BECKI, A PERSON ON THE INTERNET.

[@ozpaul2sb]

I love your attitude, and your skill set AND now I discover you are a typography nerd as well. You might just be the perfect human.

[@DaniAlexandria]

This is one of my fav videos from y’all! Please do more branding and typography videos please!

[@BeckiandChris]

Thank you!

[@AmritaBhortake]

I learned sooo much in this video. I struggle with typography, can never decide on what font to use and so it helped to understand it through the angle of branding. Becki, you are so awesome, and thank you so much for creating this video. Also, I learned a new word today...kerning. 🙌🏼

[@BeckiandChris]

Omg yay I’m so glad it was helpful! I love typography so much, it’s hard though to pick a few fonts to stick with, there are so many good ones!

[@AmritaBhortake]

@@BeckiandChris That's true! They all look so pretty, it gets really difficult to choose.

[@lucaspellicer]

7 seconds away from the 10 minutes mark. Awesome video Becki!

[@iamlrk]

at 4:45 if you had the subtitle name as [Insert your title here] or [Title goes here], that would have been an awesome pun. Missed opportunity. Anyway great video as always.

[@eman8236]

Come for the video stayed for the eyeglass frames. Dope 👍🏽

[@anthonywowv1142]

Re-watching this video after 2 years and I still got some benefits out of it🙌

[@kierstenseaburg6917]

Becki, again, another BANGER! I loved this video. But do it, let's hear about your typography love!!

[@CharlesLucky]

If I could just get half as much of the energy Becki has for loose kerning and the mirage font 'g', I would be so happy. Awesome video. Gained a sub :)

[@larissaswayze]

Watching you geek out over fonts was the highlight of my day. Loved it!

[@MikeDamazo]

I rearranged our "set" cause of your videos. The part where you just go over typography is GOLD!!!

[@GenkiHagata]

Talking about typography 💛💛💛😍 I could nerd out about type all day 🙌🙌🙌👏

[@BeckiandChris]

Me too, I love design so much!

[@JebbAdams]

Hey Becki; I have fun & learn stuff here! Time for me to get some real lights! The Canadian Tire Work Lights really heat the place up. Professional lights are affordable & much cheaper than an FX3! Lol! Great visual choreography ... Awesome visual, the colours are magnificent! Happy April 1st long weekend no matter what, where & how you's guys are doing it! Thanks.

[@InaiahLujanMusic]

I’m also a geek about typography and branding! Being relatively new to film making and while I adjust to my learning curves with lighting, color correcting / grading, exposure etc. I’ve really leaned on my strengths as a designer and music producer to help present a more professional video as I’m learning and growing. I’ve discovered your channel pretty recently, and I always appreciate the videos and your keen sense of design and branding amongst the myriad of other talents you share with us. I have been quarantined alone since this whole hoopla has been in place so finding friends and companions in vlogs like yours has helped me thoroughly. Endless thank yous. Much love and respect from Colorado!

[@MikeVanGorkom]

I continue to love and appreciate your consistent aesthetic, delightful humor, and insightful content. Thanks for all the hard work!

[@gilib8157]

Great advice ! I have a really bad habit of not setting my white balance up properly in camera and... let's just say "editing me" really hates "filming me" sometimes

[@BeckiandChris]

Omg I’ve been there and it sucks in post later!

[@glowingeye]

Oh my god, I looooove all this stuff so much... Photo, video, graphics, typography - things a human being needs to survive. At least me. Great font selection, thanks! Freakin‘ DEADLY (I somehow integrated this word into my vocabulary and now I just can‘t let go of it)!

[@timothyrotenberger]

*Cut to Super 8 scene of train coming in* "PRODUCTION VALUE!"

[@AlainPilon]

I laughed so much at that joke!

[@ongzenshawn]

I just realised why I love your videos so much. They are uniquely Becki and Chris. I know its a Becki and Chris video when I see it. The videos are always dark / moody-ish, but somehow they are immaculately lit. I've no idea how you do it, but it's actually insane. I guess a good comparison will be like... Er. If mkbhd's videos are always bright and and perfectly shot, your videos are always dark (ish) and perfectly shot. You're like the dark(er) version of mkbhd. I've no idea what I'm saying, you guys are inspiring and amazing. Thanks for the amazing content as always XD

[@BeckiandChris]

Haha I love that, thank you!

[@AlexPerrucci]

Bebas is my go to lol. Been using it in all my videos for a while now. Great tips, great video!

[@kaleigh]

Seriously, I would pay for a branding and design consultation or advice! Maybe even a design series once the basement is finished! 🙏🏻

[@BahamaLlamaCoral]

Freaking love this. Nobody talks about fonts. Thanks for the suggestions!

[@damonmarshall8450]

This video has gotten me very intrigued about the world of typography

[@maxbalzer1100]

Great Video, but AHHHH! I was hoping you would talk about your brand fonts! Maybe next time? lol

[@AndrewMasters]

Wtf youtube, where was my notification on this? This is my jam!

[@tombuck]

I love your passion for typography. I don’t know where I’d be without the lower case Helvetia a.

[@Moshavnik7272]

Hi Becki, I liked your video. I do have a small correction which I hope you won’t mind. When referring to the overall space between characters in words and sentences, and either condensing them or spreading them out, the correct term is: “tracking” not “kerning”. “Kerning” refers to adjusting a space between two characters only and is used when tweaking or fine tuning that space in relation to the overall spacing of all the characters. This is typically done to titles when there is an optical issue with the space between two characters being a bit too close or too distant to each other making the word look uneven. When you adjust the overall space of all the text in a word or sentence even when using automatically adjusted proportional fonts, it is called: “tracking”.

[@maacdesmond]

I think its better to view your studio equipment and walls, paintings, reflectors, whatever you used, its useful to take video smoother and informative too.

[@mattgray128]

I need a Becki in my life/crew. You guys make awesome stuff!

[@ranjinirajainfilm]

Thanks Becki! Basic tips but adds heaps to quality!

[@CodyWales]

That depth of field.... MAGIC

[@KyleFields]

Don't forget that if you have Adobe CC, you have fonts available to you. They are even organized in sets based on use. Also, we totally discovered Bebas on our own for our business.

[@GoNorthJapan]

Thank you so much! I always struggle with fonts, among other things. Fantastic suggestions here. Much appreciated!!

[@wavesummit]

The basement studio is looking good

[@BeckiandChris]

James Moxley thanks it’s coming together!

[@solomonsylvester3544]

Thank you both Becky and Chris for all that you have done for me. Becky you have shown me lighting and editing tricks that I use while I make content for the gram and KZbin (I lowkey have been slacking). You’re personality is so infectious I love it. Chris thank you for being an intervenaial radiologist. About a year ago my grandmother was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer she is a rare case where she has the aggressive form of this cancer. She has been in and out of the hospital and as of Friday she has been in the hospital during this pandemic because she fell. It is very nerve racking not being able to see her. However, I found comfort when I was on the phone with a doctor who was an intervenaial radiologist who was explaining the procedure he was going to preform. I found comfort knowing how hard Chris works and how he is always on the move learning more and more each day. I have been on the fence about pursuing medicine and I made my final decision to after that phone call. I will be pursuing medicine in order to provide that same comfort I felt to others. I appreciate you both for the sacrifices you both have made during this time in the world. I love your videos keep up the great work!

[@BeckiandChris]

😭 Thanks so much for spending the time to share this, it means so much! I hope your grandmother is well and best of luck on your journey into medicine!

[@niranjanbhombe537]

I was expecting a Chris Cameo at the end there, trolling Becki for nerding out on Fonts. I had no clue that fonts could be this complicated, mind blown!!

[@JonathanJayTorres]

You are awesome! I just started my channel 4 months ago and I’m trying to up my production value, this video is definitely helpful ! I’ve watched like 20 of your videos 🙏🏽

[@kylieknight8847]

You talking about fonts is the video we didn't know we needed. We need more 😂

[@JaskaranSingh-rn7sk]

only 30 seconds Into the video. I don't what have you done but audio uff crisp and tasty yum

[@TuckerPearce]

Becki bringing the HEAT in this one... I’ve been trying hard to bring my production value up. Been working on sound, putting music in and trying to get the right balance. Backlights with gels and a light on top of my camera. Well Still needs work. I’ve been phoning it in on the fonts though, thanks for this. I need to watch it again and take notes. I need to find a good DIY lighting video with equipment from Home Depot or amazon, something under $200 or even better under $100. All of that being said if you can’t tell a good story all of this is lost on the audience, you two do a fantastic job of that. Thanks.

[@BeckiandChris]

Thanks so much!! A number of years ago we did a light set up with lights from Home Depot! kzbin.info/www/bejne/p33PiIltbsSio7s

[@anthonyjackson8867]

You guys are definitely one of the top three channels that I watch on KZbin. I love your style across the board rather it’s home decor, photography or videography. Thanks for all the information and inspiration that you guys have given me. Question, which camera from your notes do you guys use as a main video camera?

[@gabrielobrien21]

100% on audio. This is what I do for a living and hearing terrible audio in videos takes you right out of whatever you're watching. Also, if you're trying to make money by doing videos for businesses, having terrible audio and knowing how to color grade are two of the things that set amateurs apart from pros. I see so many people buy a DSLR and start a video business and they're the "natural light photographers" of the video industry. Learn about lighting and audio like Becki says. There's tons of great info out there.

[@GraphicMill]

Becki, you have the knack, you’re so creative, funny as hell and I love the full transparency ‘of you’, (which translates into a free speaking, no sh#£ held back, ‘this is me’ attitude). I love that AND you’re a fellow Canuckian! 🤗🤗🟥❤️🟥👍 And thank you for the Font collection, I’ll search them out.
