Awesome video…thanks for this information

[@RealmRenderings]

Thanks dude!

[@nataliekahnaguilar793]

Informative, but way too much for a rank beginner. I was lost early on.

[@Adi-megatron]

If this got you lost, then video editing on tiktok it's not for you. It's very simple

[@carmenjones9178]

Thank you for the tutorial. It’s simple and straight to the point.

I love the teaching

[@user-es9vd7jx9g]

Thanks

[@bkayeshunsaker174]

Great presentation :-)

[@randymainini9390]

Very nice video! By the way, I like your phone holder would you mind putting the link where bought it?

[@WokWithMe]

Thanks for sharing this! May I ask what microphone you have attached to your phone? Cheers!

[@sumahomes8177]

good one

[@lazulirondoudou]

Good video. I guess there's a way to save the project between 2 clips. Or add already shot clips to current project? And ppl asking abt music: I think it's because KZbin restrictions.

[@bnklau8955]

underrated

[@nlegacysolo]

Thanks for the video. I was looking for how to take a vid and publish on tiktok, not how make a vid on your phone. This is something I may look into the future for though. Meanwhile, I'm still on a hunt for the info I was looking for...

[@pgc257tv9]

Cool

[@lilianasantiago8388]

New sub!

[@CarolynGamble]

1st. How were you able to screen capture your phone and show It live with your actions on this tutorial for KZbin? Are you using a phone and a laptop at the same time?

[@romilsondgerard1978]

I was waiting for you to come back with the same shirt saying that you changed it. I’d be dying😅😅

[@michaelolson4135]

Besides the cell phone, what equipment are you using in this video?

[@righttime6532]

And you’re using pat Flynn’s switch pod! Cool.

[@TheFigCo]

Best invention ever!

[@rev.kevinv.montague5927]

This is helpful. Thank you. I just subscribed. Where can I get the iphone stand like you have?

[@TheFigCo]

Here's everything I used with my phone: kit.co/jeffthelen/instagram-reels-tiktok-youtube-shorts-kit The mini-tripod is called a SwitchPod.

[@rev.kevinv.montague5927]

@@TheFigCo Thank You

[@leonardshatner4717]

Is there a way to do a preface to a video & * then * have a sound start after the preface? Usually when you use a sound/song, it starts right at the beginning of your video. I want it to start after a spoken word preface.

[@CallmeBatty3]

Probably have to prerecord and cut and paste

[@Tonita77]

sounds great but WHERE is the button or icon to edit and to merge clips???

[@doloresmex12]

Can you save your draft video vs setting to launch video?

[@evangood8826]

I have an I phone, but I chose not to get the lastest one. I now found out I have to hold on the record button but I can’t let go of the button. Is that a thing that is going on with the updated iPhones? I find it tough to make a video because as I’m talking I end up removing my figure off of the record as I’m filming. Do you have any ways to help make the video recording a smoother process for me? Thanks man👍🏼 I’m nervous posting videos, but I wanted to aid on advice to people who are struggling in customer service.

[@delphinelecouffe6035]

hii can you explain me what is the section archives story?? why videos are on this section and other not??

[@agnesturay]

Great 👍🏿 tips and videos. Question? What about a video you all already edited from iMovie and are ready to be posted. Do u have to re-edit it again?

[@TheFigCo]

You can just upload the edited video to TikTok, the one thing you'll want to do is add the music from within the app. TikTok won't relate your video to others using the same music if you upload it outside of TikTok.

[@agnesturay]

@@TheFigCo thank you. Can you do a video on that pls and tagged me pls.

[@michellelemon6545]

A darker background might be better so we can see the icons on the right

[@sumahomes8177]

Are you doing at eye level or higher to the camera?

[@markshina3511]

How did you flip the camera?

[@mellyb3131]

Which app is good for making the videos

[@zeelowsguys]

Where do I get on of those phone stands ?

[@Lrod27100]

Can you post a link about what mic you’re using ?

[@TheFigCo]

Here's a link to my favorite microphones: kit.co/jeffthelen/best-microphones-for-youtube. The wireless mic for this KZbin video is the Rode Wireless Go II, normally I record with the Rode VideoMic NTG, and the microphone you see connected to my iPhone is the Movo VXR 10. If you need any more help picking out a mic, let me know!

[@jetcitysinatra7300]

I am an artist and wanted to show my artwork on tik tok. Do i need to use music or can I just talk with no music?

[@BryanCharlesGibbyGibson]

You never added the music and it would of been nice to see what it looked like with music and the video you made. Too get an idea of what the video would look like. Other than that you did a really good job going step by step.

[@CartCats]

Right, I was waiting to see the finalized video.

[@rachelkepnes]

How do you have the words, like I see people adding words and stuff..

[@smokinrose_]

My tiktok doest have the bar at the top where it lets you set up multiple videos

[@sundayjewels8447]

Where did he find the time, it's like sped past the timer

[@jdhed1601]

I want to use my own music.....is that an option?

[@mikedestiny4122]

this is shown using a smart phone which I dont have, I use tick tok on my Tablet. but no idea how to setup my pc webcam to make a video. Dont appear to have a second input for a webcam??

[@spidyjobz1713]

How to edit role play video on TikTok? Thank you

[@nambulamary5688]

Iwant to know how you hv made using ur phone 📱

[@coolguydez1853]

Ok I already know every thing about tiktok and when I press the pluss and it just tooke to settings

[@MichelleSecrist92]

This was very helpful, thank you so much for making this!

[@mejhon6592]

I cant recort it say just app info and it doesnt come up to record right away

[@jamiebenjamin7897]

I'm lost....does the video stop when you clap or point? Or did it stop because u set the timer and it met its max? And if so, are u able to see the timer as your recording? Wow!This is a great tutorial BUT definitely not for beginners. I'll have to play around & watch a few other tutorials....then come back to this.

[@maggiemackenzie4528]

It stopped because of the timer.

[@aringtonhendley8467]

Is there an origin date visible? (In case someone steals my unpatented prototypes/designs) Can I cuss? If I cuss, do I need a second app like tiktok studio to notify the public that I cussed? Can I show pot usage? Can you make money if you "go viral'? Can you get banned? I saw a 30 second stripper video with real naked boobs with the tiktok logo on the left side - was that a real tiktok video? (Is there a hook-ups/dating section/category of tiktok?)

[@ambriashelton8998]

But what If I wanted a clip of someone talking to play first then have music playing for the rest of the TikTok video🤷🏻‍♀️

[@jimmebekele4175]

👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@steepvalley2408]

What iPhone you using

[@TheFigCo]

iPhone 12 mini

[@hannahkritzeck3354]

How is yours way longer then mine mine is way shorter then yours

[@ChrisNinapaytanForever]

TODAY SATURDAY , NOVEMBER 12 , 2022%

[@sreningemannpetersen3920]

Why is it so stupid in a way, when I have selected 15 sec video and I'm uploading a picture from Spotify, and want to add the track it will only allow me playing 10 seconds from that track without me having any options of changing that for 15 seconds? It doesn't make any sense in my head.

[@KeesvanBoxtel]

ah previously recorded is also possible 2:11

[@shleyleo3358]

How the hell are there only 13 comments but that many views 🤔

[@ChrisNinapaytanForever]

ONLY ONLY ONLY ONLY TIKTOK AND ALL THE SOCIAL MEDIAS

[@slushland]

WHAT WAS THE POINT OF CHOOSING MUSIC WHEN YA DON'T SHOW US THE FINISHED VIDEO AND HOW THE MUSIC WORKED W IT...

[@jenifermartin739]

I wish I could see what your clicking on tho

[@yoursweetjeep3523]

I am so "Tech Tarded" I wish I could see what "buttons" he is pushing instead of only viewing the actual result... Signed "still lost.. LOL:)

[@lisacoley69446]

I think this was too much info for a very beginner’s video. At least is was a lot of info for ME to absorb and I had to watch it several times

[@tishtashyates2632]

I dont want to.put myself on tiktok, but sometimes I really want to say something. I'm an older generation so not really able to get through, but I want to.at least try to say something! How do I do that. I realise I'm not important to the younger generation. I may even be looked at with ridicule. I do get it of course but the things I know are important! I don't care if I'm not identified but how do I reach my daughters generation (25) on these platforms. Serious issues.... want them to care. Maybe i can't help bur ant tiny thing I could do let me know I see My daughters generation have become consumed by 'likes' can I get them to 'like' something worth liking. Just to start a real conversation at least. How can I find a voice? (Not even me personally just encourage this generation) please help.

Sorry. You speak way too fast to manage any understanding at all for someone who knows nothing about it.

[@newdreamlife2946]

Thank you for this tutorial - now just got to do it!

[@24kchefkimmy43]

Not really beginner friendly. Too much too fast. Video could have been longer and a little more explanation.

[@MikalMullaly]

Dude. Way too much info for beginners. You take way too long explaining editing. Save all that for another video.

[@shleyleo3358]

Clearly some of us found it pretty helpful. Maybe try to find something that works for your learning speed.

*phlanx's tiktok engagement rate calculator* appraises engagement rate easily, a metric you'd want to identify reliable to know if your tiktok has good marketability
