SEE YOU ON THE NEXT VIDEO!!!
Just film!!!! That is the hardest for most people. Your gonna suck in the beginning and get better as time goes on....I'm 2 years in and still learning....Great Video!!!
Thanks for the backup bro 😎🔥 that’s all it is for the longest is pushing through the comfort zone
This video is gold, Westin, gold! Speaking of gold, did you know during the California gold rush the people that made the most money were the ones that sold supplies to all the folks looking for gold. What I mean by that is you could teach classes on editing vids for money. At the very least I wish you much monetary success from likes and ads on this vid!
Thanks Joe 🔥 appreciate that bro and I got some extras on the way 👌🏼
Thanks for taking the time to help so many!
My pleasure Sonja!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with creating videos! I have a lot to learn and am a little intimidated by the technical part! But as you say, “just start recording videos and you’ll get better”!!!
Thank you!!
Thanks Andrea!! Getting started with that first video is always the hardest parts !
I’ve been wanting to do a UA-cam channel for a while. My wife surprised me with a GoPro hero 8 for my bday. I’m so stoked. Do you think chest mount is better than a action hat?
Duuuuude!! I have so much to say about this video!! First, this is how inspire, teach and support. So much support and encouragement for beginners. It's fantastic to see you at work reminding us that everyone is Grinding. This video was super inspiring!!!
My son wants to start a channel he is 11. He is very dedicated to fishing. He ties own flies. Can't wait to show him this video. Thanks
As someone who is planning on starting their channel in 2020, thanks so much for this!
My pleasure man! Part 2 just dropped 🤘🏼
Im intimidated by the editing process. I know how to fish and capture the footage but I feel like editing is gonna be a big learning curve. I'm binge watching your channel
Dude I have been tossing and turning on the idea of starting to make UA-cam content, this video could not have came at a better time to give me the boost of confidence thanks dude
Do it! It's very fun and you have the freedom to make whatever you want! I've been doing it for a while trying to get better
I just became your 5th sub 👊get on it .
@@BrandonBReelKillerFishn 300 subs in a month is great work man! I'm trying to get to 200 now, it's hard to say consistent uploading content
Extreme Outdoors that’s awesome dude! Good luck with the journey! I guess for me my one thing I love to do is bass fish along with a lot of other stuff I think I’d have fun with it
ReelKillerFishn that’s awesome was t expecting that, but thanks! I plan on going to get a camera here real soon, my content will b mostly fishing and reviews but many other things if u r into that stuff! Thanks again
Just got my GoPro hero 10 and all my mounts and accessories and i got my laptop. Been watching a lot of editing tutorials so I can expand my knowledge on that and I am ready to give this a go. Thank you!
I had to go back and rewatch this and the other one you posted and thank you it’s very helpful And informational
started watching at 500 subscribers a while ago, ur content is at a another level
Thanks man 👊🏼
Looping is going to help me so much! So helpful. Thanks so much Westin
Life saver
God damn it that last tip is a life saver! Im going to try it out, although I could lose some footage of a good fish if I get wrapped up bad by a mangrove snapper
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👊BANGER That had to be a very informative trip with Rob
It definitely was. Haven’t fished with any of the guys lately so I was filled in on quite a bit
Great video and info. I gotta up my video game drastically this coming season
Crank em out man, and thanks!!! Let’s get it 🤘🏼
A different video that was fill with good info for a new UA-camr
Thanks man! Something a little different. People seem to be enjoying it
That was awesome you gave so much information thanks man
Westin thanks for being generous with the tips. Looking at starting my own channel and this is more helpful info.
Love the hustle. I watched your videos and have used a lot of the advice it has been very helpful. Keep it up!
Westin, just wanted to take a minute and say, I've been a sub for a while now and love your videos, I think it's great that you're straight forward, not scared to speak your mind and express your feelings, your not fake like a lot of other youtubers , thanks for all you do for the UA-cam fishing community !!!
Thanks Josh appreciate that! I’d also like to mention that even if some “other influencers” who were a part of specifically, let’s say “favorite rods” and parted ways, may or may not be able to make an opinionated video like myself because of contracts in place etc.
So in reality not having a deal on paper was maybe a good thing 🤷🏻♂️🔥
Regardless brotha I appreciate you and I always try to keep it one hunnit for the FAM
Westin dude you're the man...this is just quality information right here brother, thank you
My leader man glad it helped 👊🏼
I have had a UA-cam channel for years and just posted random things now I just started to really get it together and post racing/fishing stuff
That’s awesome man keep it flowing 🤘🏼🔥
Thank you !! This information is GOLD !!
Thank you so much man. This is great. I love your positivity man very encouraging. I have a gradual disability and have been documenting my Fishing adventures because I am very passionate about it. I found you along with other fishing youtubers and it has been inspiring to not only have my own memories but to share them on here and It helps other, entertains others and like you among others it can actually become your job. Congrats on your success man! Thanks again.
Great video! This will help me out immensely, as I'm new to the GoPro(Hero 8), so everything is a challenge to me right....from settings, battery runs out too fast, can't properly upload to my MacPro, files too large, etc!!!! This will get me in the ballpark of where I should, so I'm not completely lost anymore.
Thank you Westin!!!
Westin this is GREAT! The loop mode and how to use it... Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure!!
Awesome video Westin, its funny, I have at least 50 hours of video on my computer and the editing intimidates me, this will help immensely. Thanks
My pleasure man and yeah it’s not uncommon for their to be a kink in our creative pipeline at all man just make it happen. For some people it’s the talking part, for others they dont know about camera settings and get freaked out, for others the editing portion, or upload etc. MAKE IT HAPPEN 🤘🏼🔥🔥
Great video Westin. Thank you. I’m going to pull the trigger on a GoPro. I’ll probably DM you with questions once I start. Keep the content coming.
That’s awesome Bill, plz do!!! Get it going!!!
This video couldn’t have come at a better time, as I am trying myself to start a UA-cam channel about fishing in Florida. Thanks for all the tips and tricks! Literally just brought a MacBook pro for editing and my GF got me a GoPro hero 7 for my birthday now it’s time to make some content! Thanks for the advice and nudge I needed 👌🏼
That’s awesome man heck yeah!!! Watch the Florida peeps for good advice and vids. YakPak, norm, lojo, kickin, etc. glad this vid helped 🙌🏼
Great instructional video. Thank you man. Time to get out there and start filming!
Awesome video just watched you for the first time and I have a new hero 9 starting my fishing channel journey thanks for the tips
The hardest part is getting off their butts and do something. Todays technology is so readily available, people take it for granted.
We use to do catch and cook on Hi8 Cameras. We use to literally splice ribbons for audio sound to sync up with VHS. I bet most dont even know what these are! lol
Anyways, love your content.My setup is a gopro 6 blk, chest mount, 4 sd cards, 1 10,000 mah 2.0 charger plugged to my gopro.
last all day.
The loop mode is the best tip, ever. lol.
Thanks man! Gotta admit I’m not familiar with some of those tactics myself haha! Your setup sounds mint though 🔥
Great info! I am starting my fishing channel this year here in the Northeast.
That’s awesome man get it going!! Just dropped part two of this series 🤘🏼
WOW!!!!!!! I too like many others just started a new channel, it will be all kinds of stuff, hence the OUTSIDE'N part and thank you so much this will help me very much, may be it will blow up, may be not but me and my youngest daughter love doing it. Santa got me a go pro for Christmas to help with vids. so far only used I phone but go pro and this vid is gonna be a game changer for all 6 of my subscribers lol. Thanks again for the vid and KEEP IT OUTSIDE'N!!!
That is awesome!!!! Cheers to your success, let’s do this 🤘🏼🔥🔥
You keep it up, you will definitely pass GS on the Tube Sir! You are a Natural my friend! God Bless!👊
Thanks man I’ll take the compliment 🙌🏼 I appreciate ya.
I totally appreciate this video! I’m in the process of creating my channel, and this will help me tremendously!! Thanks man!
Awesome glad it helped man 🤘🏼
Westin Smith 👊🏻👊🏻
This video was so good! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
My pleasure man, thanks for watching bro! Keep catching Tanks 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for the great tips finally started my UA-cam channel last year thanks to you after watching this video I appreciate all the information brother
Been waiting on this video for a year! Thanks Westin, it was very good!
My pleasure man! Glad ya liked it 🤘🏼
Really helpful video I’m hoping to get started soon! Thanks from Scotland 👍
DUDE that loop mode is awesome
It’s a must man! I don’t ever start recording without that on
Got an iphone with a nice camera (hate iphones though), as well as a nikon d7500, and i just bought a a gopro last night, cant wait to get started thanks for the tips.
Such a great guy and always helpful! Thanks man!
Thanks Tyler! Finally sharing the info haha I’m a year late or so 😂
This is such a helpful video! I'm starting up my channel(just finished filming) and these gopro setting tips help a bunch. Love the content man!
Thanks for the comment John! Glad it helped
Some of our videos are done on the Gopro and some from a phone. The hard part is getting the right angles and merging clips together. Awesome video man and thanks for the tips!!!
For me it’s a challenge as well. In some ways because depending on the content I don’t use an editor to match the audio up on separate angles
@@WestinSmith We are gonna start searching for good music and tones to use and hopefully that will help. Or try slow motion transitions. Still debating.
Good stuff right here! Appreciate the information
Great stuff Westin!!!
Thank you!
Hey I love the Googan Hat! I started making fishing views a couple months ago and I’ve been slowly making progress! All thanks to you!
That’s awesome thanks man!!
👍👍👍👍 thanks bro for the info
My pleasure man! Feel free to share with someone who could use it as well 🤘🏼
@@WestinSmith for sure 🤙🔥
I'm thinking of starting a vlog I just bought a boat working on getting it up and running thinking of starting the vlog with the work on the boat then go to the fishing.
Or should I just start with the fishing this spring
Smart move man! Anything that interests you and you’d have fun making is what I recommend
No no no!!! Start NOW!!!
Thanks for the video man. So helpful 👌🏽 from Croatia with love 🇭🇷❤️🎣
That’s awesome bro thanks for the comment. I’m glad it helped 🔥
Thanks for these tips!
My pleasure 👌🏼
Bro! You are the best thanks going to try this!
Nice...I learned something about my gopro hell yeah! Thanks Westin
My pleasure man and I bet there’s a ton of people who are unaware of all the stuff these things are capable of
Great video Westin ! I'm a newbie to Go Pro and your video was a great help in understanding the nuances. I really appreciate all the effort you put in. Keep up the good work !
dude you just made things seem so much easier to me b4 I've tried filming content but it was just too over whelming your tips just helped me understand things so much better i defiantly cant wait for more keep it up.
I’m all about the easy time efficient way. I’m sure there’s faster ways but this works for me
I was just looking up videos like this yesterday! How ironic, thanks for the info Westin!
Man it’s funny how many comments I’ve got about the timing on this one!! Glad it helped bro, my pleasure!!!!
For my gear I use the velocity clip chest mount as you can see in my videos, for my phone I can film a long time but have to delete older videos I film
Golden.....awesome work
Thanks Frankie!
Thanks for the tip bro! I’m stuck editing on my iPhone right now. Thankfully, my GoPro connects to my phone. I get it done. Thanks again brotha🔥🔥
Nothing wrong
With
That dude! I was editing on the phone until 8k, only thing I like about the computer is the audio file I can see when skimming but I still edited videos more frequently or faster with the phone since I could edit on the go!!!!
Westin Smith ya! I have an app to where I can see the audio file, so I guess it works out fine. Thanks again for the tips bro👊🏼🔥
My hardest part is being in front of the camera rn and I’m sure I’ll get better at it but I wanna be more loose and not so stiff in the videos lol
Sick vid brotha...Thanks for the vid...
My pleasure man!
Love this video awesome insight thanks westin
My pleasure! Thanks man
Just started my channel last spring then ended up moving to another state so I'll be continuing making more videos in the near future.
That’s Awesome man! Get back after it 🤘🏼🔥
Great video. The one thing I noticed was the audio was great but you didn't focus on that. For me, audio is almost as important as the video. Keep up the good work.
Awesome info man. I’ve started scrolling back through your videos but I struggle to get enough content for a video I feel like. But I guess it’s like you said just push out videos and grow and you go.
Yes. You’ll improve every time you take the camera out. I work hard to make sure the vids have some length myself by adding in talking points about the location or tips on what I’m throwing if the bite is slow
Westin Smith awesome. Yeah I just started a TikTok because it’s only 60seconds but it’s building my video confidence I guess you would say. But again thank you and keep pumping this stuff out it’s been a huge help. Especially the one talking about posting 3x a day.
And how do you space out your post through the day?
Bro, so helpful. My main problem was i thought i needed some expensive ass editing software. I have an iphone and imovie. Plus very helpful as to how you showed how to put music behind the video. The loop mode is the shit bro. Thanks for that, even though i know my dumbass is gonna forget to save my pb or something.
Lol I think about it all the time! 😂 you get used to it though and don’t forget really.
I’m for sure gonna have to try the loop mode
Awesome vid. Keep them comin
Thanks man after this one being well received I’m sure I’ll post more similar content 💪🏼😎🔥
Thank you just recorded my first ever video fishing the Isle of Wight in the uk .
Really helpful ganna get editing tomorrow hopefully won’t be to bad 😂 thanks again 🎣
Loved it.
Great video! Thank you! My channel has almost 300 videos. I've been fishing my whole life but I've only done one fishing video so far. Been filming all day today and hoping to get out there tomorrow and film some more! I have a hero 7 black. The hardest part for me is getting started talking, once I start talking I'm good but sometimes it takes me a minute to get going. Thanks for the tips! I'll have to try that looping mode
Loop mode don’t mess around!! Glad you took something from the vid, I was blown away when I was taught about loop mode from MDLR Fishing & RX Angler down in Houston and I hear ya, even now there’s days I have a lack of words or don’t do the intro until I’ve already started fishing.
I edit and upload with a custom thumbnail all from my phone
Great vid man keep it up
I subbed! Try using filmora on a computer, it's cheap and easy!
Thanks man I will check your channel out for sure as well
Same here bro! I still handle the majority on my phone for thumbnail, descriptions from my notes, etc.
Thanks man! 🤘🏼
👊🏼
Just started a channel around 4 months ago and I love uploading 3 time a week... so fun
That’s awesome man keep at it 🙌🏼🔥
CANT WAIT TO START NEXT SUMMER WITH THEM VIDS🔥🔥🔥💪🔥thanks for this tips bro🔥🔥
Thanks man!!!
Hey great video, when I upload from my phone to UA-cam it takes forever??? What am I doing wrong?? Thanks
So many variables it’s tough to say. If you’re using iMovie and exporting to camera roll it shouldn’t take too long
Westin Smith , I wasn’t exporting to camera roll!! I just did that and it was quick!! I was just uploading straight from I movie. Thanks dude!!
What do you use for you to plug in your sd card into your MacBook what’s the adapter on your computer? I’ve been doing videos and I’m slowly going from shit videos like you said to getting better .. hardest thing for me is staying consistent!
That’s the hardest part for everyone man!! That piece is called a HYPER DRIVE for MacBook pro
great video! I'm a newbie - more or less - and this is gonna be a huge help! Thanks!
Brooo. Great vid ... everybody pay attention to this man ....this is real talk and this man is a beast 💯👊 🎣🔥 🏆
Making vids is so fun! It's just hard to be consistent
@@extremeoutdoors8126 I subbed you 👊
Thanks Brandon, just sharing what works for meh 🤘🏼 let’s fish again soon 🔥
@@WestinSmith I'm down whenever you are . Sunday looks juicy around here. Dang rain tomorrow,🙄😐
Great video, lots of great tips!! thank you
My pleasure!
great info how do you store your videos do you use a external hard drive if you do which one thanks
Wish I knew this stuff when I was starting my channel last year... good stuff brother you earned a subscriber keep up the good work 👍🏼
That drum set tho
Thanks bro! She’s just chillin for another week or so in the office haha
Great content thanks for the tips! You got a new sub sir
Hardest part for me is buying the go pro and knowing/learning how to edit. I have incredible ideas for content in a very niche void in the fishing industry I just have no real computer skills or know how when it comes to editing
Watch more vids on it! Mine was an overview but I’d like to go in depth. Save some CHEDDAR 🧀 and get that camera bro 🔥
@@WestinSmith Bought a very good shape used go pro hero 5 black on ebay for $80 just now! Bought the batteries a memory card and a chest mount. 2020 is going to be a lot more doing and less thinking for me! Following this series closely!
Seen lunkers last video with you in it. Sick stuff man! Just got the new gopro hero 8 black. "First ever gopro" and its sick! I've been recording all my past content with a phone chest mount and my Samsung galaxy 8 lol. So stoked to start shooting.
That’s awesome we just filmed it yesterday, and you see what my day consisted of today 😂 haha I’m glad everyone is enjoying this one 👊🏼
@@WestinSmith yeah it sure looked like one hell of a day. Man it would be sick to colab up sometime and shoot some footage. Although I haven't been able to travel much lately cause I have a fam now maybe one day we can make it happen. I'm in Wisconsin. I do make it down to Kentucky from time to time to visit my stomping grounds that's closer, assuming your in Texas?
I have a go pro, iPhone, and laptop... I fish all the time. Thanks for this video bro I’ll be uploading soon
Sick!!! Get it man! Can’t wait to see you making it 🤘🏼💰🔥
Wow great info and appreciate you offering this tutorial. I've been following your IG, YT and FB and I don't know how I missed this? Well I have a question as to the imovie. Correct me if I'm wrong but imovie is Apple product? I don't use iphone or Apple products so is there another app you can suggest for my laptop?
My husband is considering starting a fishing channel. The editing is probably gonna be the hardest part. Here in Florida. Does have a little photography experience. Has a Hero Session 5 but it only records 10-12 minutes at a time. Any ideas why or what to change?
BROOOO THAT SHIRT IS FIRRRRE!
LOL I've got never quit tattooed on me so I feel that shit💯✊
And I'm definitely inspired to make videos. Just to document catches. I wish I would've gotten my double digit PB on video because it was an insane catch. You'll be seeing videos from me this spring for sure. You seem like a down ass dude as well and it would be awesome to fish with ya. Hell if you play drums we should jam. I just got a new ibanez for Christmas too! Lol life's good man
That’s awesome man! Yeah I play the drums and got em in the office while family is in town haha 😂🤘🏼🔥
Thanks bro! And yes plz start ASAP! Let’s gooooo 🎣
Great video and content Brother..I'm just south of ya in Arlington, TX. I'm starting my new YT Fishing Channel wish a GoPro Hero 5 Black and soon adding the 7 Black to my arsenal. Recorded the 1st video for Jarhead Catfishing this morning. Hope to one day link up with you and some of the Googan Sqaud to rip some lips...Keep Crushing It!!
Stay HUMBLE, Stay HUNGRY, Stay FOCUSED...~The Jarhead Entrepreneur
What kind of reptile do you have? Thought I spotted a terrarium in the background.
You did haha and we have 3. A bearded dragon, a spotted python and a ball python. I post them
On my Instagram story fairly often
Now I must find you on Instagram..
Nice brotha!!! I see your still sticking with it!! Good stuff bro!! I’m on the gram now don’t really do fishbrain anymore, let me know when you want to go out on the yaks and rip some lips!! I got my new I phone 11 pro Max might just start a UA-cam channel LMAO Peace!!👊🏼
Ayyyyy there we go 😎 and yeah man I haven’t posted on FishBrain much lately although I use the app almost daily haha. I’ll have to hit you up 🔥
Great video !! Ima get started ASAP . I have a iPhone 11 so I’m going to figure out how to record while fishing by my self . Lol I can’t get not one bright idea
Awesome!! Grab a little phone tripod or somethin
I got a question for the upload thing that you plug into your phone does it upload instant
king!
Awesome video man! Super helpful 👍🏻🤙🏻 will definitely use these helpful tips in my next vlog. I appreciate it man! 👊🏻
My pleasure dude glad you could take something from it 🤘🏼😎
Perfect timing! About to hit the ice and make a vid, now just to catch some fish...
Awesome! Love it bro!
