WHAT TO USE FOR EDITING & AUDIO - getting started on YouTube series

[@mykie]

Ps. I'd like to clarify something! When I'm speaking about fair use in this video I'm speaking in the very general sense that you'd take an obviously well known and copyrighted song, put it in a monetized video of you doing makeup or something else, and say it was fair use because you used less than 30 seconds. Fair use IS a real defense sometimes depending on many factors & you'd have to convince the copyright holder or a court that your use of the song falls under the actual protection of fair use. What I wanted to convey is that many people think fair use is simple & clear cut and it's not. Fair use is very very unlikely to cover you in the scenario I'm speaking about in the video but it doesn't mean fair use is never valid which I think may have been confusing, so for more information on the nuance of this you can start here: www.adweek.com/socialtimes/fair-use-youtube/62896 & I suggest looking into other sources as well if you're still unsure!

[@poppyrendall847]

+Glam&Gore This was so helpful for my other channel, I was wondering what the exact rules/guidelines are, and I think I'll be fine xD

[@taylorgary7185]

Can you talk more about clip on mics that go in your clothes and is styrofoam good for clicking sound like in a studio

[@Reyuas]

Can you do an enchantress makeup tutorial

[@MarianaMendes24]

+Glam&Gore You should do a walker bite like in the Walking Dead. Please Mykie

[@dra2521]

+Glam&Gore I just wanna say how grateful I am for all the time and effort you and Chase put in for us Glam and Gore babies. I mean seriously! This video series you're doing sounds like a lot of work, but it's all stuff I've been dying to know, so it's very much appreciated! This is seriously one of my favorite channels and you are one of my favorite people, and it's because of all you do for us and how it shows. I seriously adore you Mykie, and I can't thank you enough for making me laugh with your quirkiness, informing me with your insight, and building me up with your advice and kindness. Keep doing what you do, girl! Love, your fellow zombae.

[@kometa4940]

The main thing i love about it is the fact that Mykie SHOWS not only explain

[@KikiChanel]

I feel like I just graduated from film school after watching this

[@louiepalacios293]

me to

[@CadieKatXoxo]

OMG Mykie, I know you probably won't read this, but I'm twelve and my mom and I absolutely love watching all of your videos. You have an awesome sense of humor and are so amazing! We love you so much and you have brought closer and we watch every single video! Thank you for your tutorials, sense of humor and quirkiness!

[@scarlett2489]

I Love how you are constantly changing looks. Love the tutorial. Love how its simply just you. Unique . Bringing together community of others unique as well!!!

[@lunagrande7087]

I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart Mykie because of these's videos. you have inspired me to finally start a KZbin channel. I have watched beauty tutorials since i was 14 years old (21 now) , and have always wanted to do it for fun. i also love to sing, but i've never really have sang in front of anyone, i was so shy about it. When i was 17 i did a live karaoke thing and decided to just try it. i picked a tough song (total Eclipse Of The Heart By Bonnie Tyler). i was so scared. i knew i was either going to be laughed or hear silence. I got a complete reaction and a standing ovation. i was o proud of my self. i know i can sing well. i still have a lot of improving to do. but now that i know i truly do and have potential to do great things with my channel. I am now confident enough to just start. i put up my first video ever up yesterday. i worked so hard on it. I sang Strong By. London Hammer. It took me over 3 hours of nonstop recording to get it to sound the best i could with no equipment it was so hard. I know have a Full-time job so i'm working my ass off to get me a mic and sound muffler on it, and head phones. i have a camera somewhere and i already have lightening cause of my makeup vanity. I just want to thank you, because part of why i haven't had started, was because i literally had no idea how to start. Please if anyone is interesting in music and beauty tutorials please subscribe to me. it would mean the world to me to have you on Team Luna.

[@GlitterFallout]

Seriously, I can't even tell you how useful these videos are. I'm not quite a newbie, but far from pro, so I LOVE your idea of the tiers. Makes things easier and relatable. I'll stop blabbering now. ....OR WILL I??? Yes, I will.

[@Stiiggy]

I just want to say that I think it's really awesome of you to take the time to truly explain to others the basics, as well as some tricks of the trade, of being on KZbin. Even so far as to explain how you edit instagram and thumbnail pictures. Some KZbinrs out there keep these tips a secret, leaving people wondering (despite many, many, MANY people asking on Twitter, in the comments, etc.). Almost as if there were some sort of competition with other KZbinrs, or people were supposed to think that they are just inherently perfect or good at things that take months, sometimes years, of practice and trial-and-error. It just seems like you genuinely want to see people succeed and have fun. Keep up the good work, you're one of most genuine people I've come across.

[@BlindGirlBeauty]

I love how monochromatic this look is. The hair, the brows, the eyes, the lips, the cheeks! So peachy toned and gorg!

[@Mimithememes]

Alright, completely off topic, but Mykie looks sooo beautiful in this video!!

[@shelbyparker6414]

+이미송 she always looks beautiful :)

[@JaclynForbes]

I really have been loving these videos. Really helpful and useful to hear :) I appreciate all the effort you put into these!!

[@AnnikaVictoria24]

I can't wait to hear what you think about MCNs! Also these videos are so awesome.

[@xXnymphXx]

I love your channel so much!!

[@ilikebakedpotatoes176]

❤🙋

[@shel_grace]

Omg I love you videos!!!

[@shel_grace]

Omg I love you videos!!!

[@mykie]

Thank ya! And spoilers, it won't be too positive haha.

[@HannahLucia]

These videos have helped me sooooo much with starting my channel! I've re-watched them so many times! Thank you for making these! Love you Mykie!!!!

[@gmedrano95]

I honestly appreciate the time and dedication you took to show us all of these things. it was extremely helpful and you're beyond adorable. thank you!

[@Greyfoot]

Even though I don't ever plan to get famous via social media, I thoroughly enjoy your very knowledgeable videos. You're so awesome, Mykie. Thank you for all that you do. I certainly appreciate it. ❤

[@ShesAaRebel]

I am so happy that you mentioned Avid! I learned both Final Cut Pro and Avid when I was in film school, and I very much prefer Avid over Final Cut. I like it mostly because I never had problems saving my files, or getting the dreaded "Media Missing" screen. I also felt way more creative when editing on it, because of my options. Mostly the filter and colour correction options is what I loved. It made me dread it a little less when the director would say "We'll fix it in post". Also, on a personal level, I just really dislike Mac. The interface was something I never really got used to, and files would always disappear on me. One downside to Avid though is that it is VERY intimidating. There's so much more you can do, but in the end it's so worth it. If anyone is interested in becoming an editor for Hollywood movies, leaning Avid is a must. I would say the learning curve to getting comfortable with it is about a month (with editing 10 hours a week at least). After using it for one semester (four months), I could start it up and get into it a lot faster. In my last semester it was a lot easier, although I still feel like there was a lot more I could have continued to explore. But I, (and the people in my class who put in the effort in their work) still ended up getting perfect in the practical exam at the end of the year, so don't be too discouraged. The exam was simple things like adding a transition, filter, title, ect.

[@mayaalysse12]

Mykie, can you do a tutorial on the look you are wearing? You look gorgeous!!!

[@edwardlinnon508]

MYKIE YOU ARE LITERALLY THE BEST KZbinR THERE IS!!! You are informative and I find that I actually learn from every single one of your videos unlike most other makeup you tubers that just try to look perfect for the camera. You inspire me everyday and I just wanted to thank you for being real with us.

[@katelyngluck9902]

Mykie looks GORGEOUS in this video!! I mean, she's always gorgeous...but today, OH MY.

[@KathLady]

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE how informative and detailed this series is. Really, you're doing such a great job! I don't watch any other make up tutorial channel, but you, because you offer such a huge variety of topics and you cover them all so well. Can't wait for the upcoming videos. :)

[@alexia57]

I'm loving all these videos where mykie's just talking to the camera. ❤️

[@shelbygill]

I feel so proud of you for making these kinds of videos after reaching such an insane level of success on the interwebz but really it's super kind and helpful of you to even touch on these kinds of things when other people are probably super against helping out someone who wants to start making videos. You give back in so many ways and you're still putting out amazing quality videos consistently and it's so easy to tell that you put your heart and soul into each and every one! Keep doing what you're doing girl, you're incredible! xoxo

[@MearcyLin]

I'm not even looking to start filming or editing I just love Mykie so much I'm watching it anyway 😩❤️❤️

[@PrettyScary]

Thanks so much for doing this series Mykie! I always secretly hoped you would, and it's so helpful! You're a star! The next video is the one I'm really excited about as I'm currently building my channel, and it's my soulmate, my true passion, I can't tell you how much I love it! So getting leverage and traction is what I'm all about now, as I want to get it out there! xx

[@BrookeMakenna]

"Fair use is to avoiding copyright infringement as pulling out is to avoid pregnancy" ONLY MYKIE WOULD MAKE THAT ANALOGY😂

[@BrookeMakenna]

I post inspirational films if you need a smile😊

[@bribuckley312]

True 😂😂😂😂😂

[@katnissmellark6011]

I know right she rocks 😜

[@MissNikkiGregory]

Thank you for doing these videos Mykie! They are far more useful than just youtube. I currently attend an art school that is mostly focused on the 2d art, but I recently (a little over a year) have gotten really into film after working on a movie set over the summer. I want to include some film in my art shows at school but since my school doesn't offer any classes I have to teach mah-self. Your videos are incredibly helpful in that regard, with showing the tools I need to make the work that I want. Thank you so much.

[@starman1704]

To be honest I watch these videos but don't need them because I love her energy it's so sweet , funny , and calm (: love you Mykie. ♥

[@mykie]

That's even more special in a way! ^.^ Thanks so much for watching! Love you!

[@starman1704]

Glam&Gore Aw (: no problem

[@Miraclelittlepie]

I'm starting my channel up again by the end of this month and this series is so helpful tbh I never found one that was really good and helpful like yours

[@ehenne55]

I can't explain how in love I am with her hair

[@plonkophet]

+Emilynn Henne I feel your feelings

[@KirstenRietveld]

+Emilynn Henne Its a wig x3.

[@tina7151]

Aww Mykie Mykie, I love all your analogies. Like the sand castle...

[@TheaElizabeth]

Mykie's makeup/hair style in this video is one of my favorites of hers😍

[@twistedmacaroni3915]

same

[@BritRose]

I have my degree in Journalism with an emphasis on Broadcasting and we used Avid for our television station. It crashed all the time, and the filmed students preferred Final Cut over Avid. We only used Avid for news because we had a whole package with other news options, but when I interned at a local news station they used Final Cut (like many do). So overall, Final Cut is the better option.

[@wintrygarden]

I hope one day you'll make some more Mykie Hates It videos - I don't need them or anything, but I like the way you express your opinions on important issues, and I'd like to see you speak to more challenging topics.

[@macydelise]

Thank you so much for making this series Mykie! These are so helpful! I've been wanting to start producing videos for quite some time but I haven't found a series like yours! LOVE YOU!

[@bortnib]

Youre a good egg for posting these vids for people. great work

[@adrikrystal]

Egg? Does Mykie look like an egg to you?

[@emolimon]

You're like the only KZbin I watch who isn't always checking themselves out in the viewfinder. It's either eye contact or nuffin with mykie. Love you!

[@elliehoulahan942]

Never seen mykie so serious/professional 💗

[@Jo-kq2lq]

I'm so happy you are doing this. I've always wanted to make videos but never knew how to start! Thank youu!!

[@zoeamz]

I'm not even interested in doing KZbin, but I absolutely love this series! Great job! xx

[@AranelJawbreaker]

Mykie this series is perfect! I already know nearly all of these things but it's still interesting and they are so well made it's crazy :D I think this is the best thing someone can hope for if they want to get started on KZbin.

[@poppyainscow913]

I am loving this series it is so helpful💙thank you for this💋

[@haileyhami]

Im actually so excited! This is really helping me out! I really want to start KZbin but I haven't bought anything yet and now I know what I need to save up for! Thank you, Mykie! I really appreciate this series!

[@LenehaJunsu]

do a tutorial on this look

[@SaraMakesArt]

As someone who does V.Os for most of her videos, I recently realized it's important to vary how things are worded. Because I record my V.Os in pieces and not all at once, I have to be careful not to end up with two or more sentences in a row that start and/or end the same way. As for allowing longer seconds in between instructions, I've found it's very important, when doing a tutorial to have at least a second or two of silence in when moving from one set of instructions to another. That way people know, we're done with this part, and we're moving on to the next.

[@claudyaz102238]

Do a video on how to get started on makeup!! Brushes, Contour Palettes, Lipsticks, Powders! Basic to Profesional! Love you all the way from Puerto Rico! Btw, loved this video! You Rule Mykie! #zombae

[@TheOfficialCV]

Okay but your whole look, your hair. Your eyes. Your skin. The makeup. The lips. I LOVE IT IT SUITS YOU SO WELL

[@simplybeautychic1]

This video was so informative. Im loving this series.

[@AshleyD08]

This was SUPER useful!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your knowledge with us!

[@simplealex3940]

Loving this series mykie ! Super helpful !

[@greenteasama]

I'm pretty excited to hear you talk about gaining momentum from nothing, since that seems to be a concern of a lot of people starting out on KZbin - how to garner popularity and followers without a an already-grounded fanbase. I love these videos, Mykie; keep it up!

[@JoshAurora]

I personally use Sony Vegas to edit all of my videos as I'm a windows user and don't have access to a lot of these awesome programs! So thats another option for any of you other windows users :)

[@anabellearjona8003]

Mykie! i am loving this series. I've been searching for other videos that say as much as you do but i couldn't seem to find one that had been as useful as yours so thank you!

[@graceshutt8881]

omg thank you so much for the help, also your makeup looks really nice today :p

[@edensxgarden]

Thank you so much for taking your time and doing this! You're helping tons of people by doing this! Just goes to show what a kind soul you are!

[@1-katiepf]

I already thought you were the bomb ass diggity Mykie, but you've taken it to a while other level with this series. So much valuable information concisely presented. You killin' it.

[@MadMakeup21]

MYKIE, I'm a freshman at Temple. I'm in the process of choosing a major and I just started a KZbin channel, Instagram, all that fun stuff. I wanted to know what classes/programs at Temple in particular were helpful or NOT useful for your KZbin/social media career! ❤️

[@mykie]

Oh hey TU! I'd say most were not helpful haha. You can easily make KZbin videos off the knowledge from the first level editing class and one of the basic lighting courses (I don't remember their names), but at the time I was there you could only take those classes if you were a film major so if you haven't picked yours yet I don't know if that's applicable advice. But you can also learn those things online so easily now- those courses didn't go into very good depth in my opinion. If you want a major that goes with a social media career I'd actually say business is a better bet. It's something I wish I knew more about now that I'm in the spot I am. Hope this answer kinda helps! And watch out for the squirrels on campus!

[@MadMakeup21]

+Glam&Gore Thank you so much! I was leaning towards a business major and using my electives to take those kind of courses since you can take a select few now without being in that major. Thanks for confirming the better pathway. Also these videos are amazingly informing, I'm so grateful for them!

[@LovePuppy102]

+Madeleine O'Donnell sorry to butt in but I'm a Media Studies and Production major at Temple and we definitely take the classes that would help you

[@MadMakeup21]

+Kristen Ashworth thanks I'm going to look into that!!😊

[@trangchic1975]

As always Mykie, you never let me down. Don't know how to express my love for you because I'm staring a youtube channel and it's really hard. Thanks for everything!!!

Loved this! Thanks for helping!

[@marens218]

I love the series you've started! I get so much information and inspiration at the same time to make more out of my pictures (since I'm not doing KZbin or anything) and it's great! I love how everything is so planned out. You are doing a good job! :D Keep it up :D

[@xsilvermistx]

PSA: for Tier 2/Intermediate editors that DONT have Macs, a good alternative to Final Cut X is any version of SONY VEGAS PRO (I still have 11 but I know newer versions have been released with little changes to the overall interface). It was my jump between Windows Movie Maker and Adobe Premeire, which I am now using on a professional level :3

[@CarterMiz101]

I'm super excited to see your next video of creating a channel and pretty much the rest of them. So far the last 2 videos are awesome and helping me tons I can't wait to get started.

[@Macckie]

this helped a lot thank you mykie you're amazing

[@EmilyParrisVideos]

I use Adobe Premiere Pro and I LUUUURVE it! It has so many more professional edits & I personally think it's easier to use than iMovie or FCP. I just wish there were more "plug ins" like pixel film studios is for Mac.

[@meganhilde8885]

umm.... how com all those beauty grus never get in trouble?

[@mykie]

I'm guessing you mean for music- There's a lot of ways to legally use music in your videos. A lot of people, and maybe the beauty gurus you're talking about, sign up with MCNs, and as I mentioned in the video, some MCNs can offer access to copyrighted music for people who sign up with them. I'll be speaking more in depth about what else MCNs do, the pros and cons, etc in the last video of this series!

[@pirihirahammond6001]

[@MsFloppybunny]

Mykie - can you do a tutorial on how to put in contacts. I really want to learn but don't know how

[@charlieRender]

+Sophie Calderwood Best thing for that is to ask a local optician to teach you, you have to basically hold your eye open and pop it in, takes a couple of goes but it's quite easy!

Side note, if you want to do FX on carpet, you can go to a house painting store and get one of the canvas drop cloths they sell for painting inside walls in homes. I got mine at sherwin williams. I am a full time acrylic painter and I do body painting and FX and I still have yet to ruin the carpet in my room. It's an option.
