I'm just here to offer my one tip. If your video feels dull and boring and slow. Watch through it, but every time you feel like it's getting boring, pause the video. Add a cut there and delete the remainder of the clip. That space needs to be filled by a new shot. Keep doing this through your whole video and watch how much energy is added to your edit.
Thanks man top tip
@@DISTANTMEDIA of course.
@@DISTANTMEDIA my tip actually kind of forces you to do what Daniel is talking about here, it's just a different way of thinking about that.
Hi, thank you - great tip. I have one question (I am kinda new to the video editing scene) - Daniel Mentioned that sometimes videos really need just one or few frames to be adjusted but what if the footage was already edited to the beat of the music - is there a way to adjust the music to this "faster" video flow when you dont want to mess up your video?
@@achiles522 I’m a beginner at this too, but I wouldn’t suggest speeding up the music, rather edit the speed of the video. If you edit the song, all the other shots fall out of sequence and you can affect pitch too. If you just take two frames and go at 98% speed, it still looks natural 😊
Started watching your content when I was much younger and I now have an internship at a video production company and a lot of what I have learned up to this moment is because of you. It can be hard to know the real world impact your videos have but just know it has helped my life significantly. Thank you :)
I'm reaching out because I am a video editor and I will love to be part of your team.
Looking forward to the possibility of working together and creating something extraordinary
I started watching your videos years ago before I could even afford a camera. I remember replaying your edits over and over again until I could finally break down how everything was coming together. After a summer in construction I spent my savings on a camera and started making videos and throwing them on instagram. As a long shot looking to make back my money I tried to slide into the dms of a local smoothie chain. Their media manager was super chill and loved my other content, so she agreed to let me shoot some short videos. Referrals from that longshot job have landed me to a full time job in media production. Not only do you set the bar for content awesomeness but you are also willing to share your advice/skills. Thank you brother for all your hard work and dedication to helping us grow with you
thats awesome! did you get paid for those videos for the smoothie chain?
@@arcadiansounds2850They paid me for the videos, asked for me to shoot some other bigger projects for them, and gave me like $150 store credit. But I would have done it for just the referrals alone :)
I watch A LOT of youtube video tutorials on video - and I think I can safely say yours are my favorite. Always very substantial and usable advice - with one third ingredient that makes them superior to most. They make you want to go make videos and get better. I am energized at the end of your videos, not tired and ready for a break. Thanks!
Thank you for such awesome vids Daniel. I do what I call the "hype sequence" at the top of all my studio tour videos and they're all very much based on your style. However, 3 years in I still see so much space to grow. Rewatching these for fresh inspiration!
We recorded the same action from different angles and distances, that helps me a lot so that my videos don't look too boring, I think what you're telling us applies a lot to what we're doing, now yes, we'll do this with more confidence, although it takes time time, well worth it. Good information Daniel, watching your videos is always a motivation to keep going.
4:15 "constant motion"...
Excellent advice. National Geographic does the same with hour long documentaries split into 5 second sequences
DANIEL IS BACK.
He never left us, but this made me nostalgic. Very much the style of video that I fell in love with back in 2020.
One of the best video breakdowns I’ve ever seen on UA-cam and described very well. Goes well with motivated movements!
Daniel, you're amazing and great!!! Thank you so much for teaching us many things dealing with video editing, b-roll and filming. I enjoy and love your channel very much. Continue the great work that inspires us!!🙂🧡❤💚
This is what they used to call ‘get in late / get out early.’ Same things apply to screenwriting and movie scenes. Love your content and energy. You are a force of nature.
Correct! and sometimes it is a matter of sense, how we feel the pace and put them into a good sequence. Great tips!
I agree with this so much. In an effort to cut down on time during my cooking short videos, I realized I was doing this and cut those lead in moments to actions.
Let's GOOOOOO!!!! #BEARDGANG
Loved this tip! I have been noticing this too. I'm not a professional editor but I pursue this as my hobby and I love that my observations/thoughts resonate with your tutorials sometimes. I learn so much from you. Thank you so much Daniel :)
Thank you so much I learned so much from you and now I'm rewatching my old videos and see my mistakes. Have a good one.
Thank you for this video ! I've been editing for years now, and naturally I understood that and applied it to my videos, but I had never actually put words onto it. Your video helped me understand why I was doing it ! ☺
Liked your video on your channel
Movement is a big thing. I love it. I've recently put movement in my talking head videos by punching in 1.3x and tracking the head to remain in the middle. gives an almost like parallax effect. Has subtle movement without distracting from the main content.
Chef's kiss with this stuff man! Thank you as always for your helpful content.
Great tip!!! And I do find that even 1 or 2 frames can make a huge difference in the flow of an edit!
This tip is so simple but yet mindblowing! i never noticed this issue but you are totally right! thank you for sharing
Thank you Daniel for your useful advice!
This is so true! Thanks for pointing out such a simple fix!
Wow, truly powerful information!
I haven't watched a video of yours in a minute, but man did I miss them 🙌🙌. I loveeeee your work. I hope one day I can make a fraction of the quality vids you make. thank you for the inspiration sir, you have no clue how much you help keep the hunger in my belly for this.
I love how you broke this down with examples, thank you
Excellent and appreciated, one of your best insights yet.
It's the simple stuff sometimes. Thanks! Good re-frame for me today as I jump into editing. Appreciate you.
For fast paced sequences I like to start well into the action. Works great with a j cut too. It really boosts the energy of the whole piece.
This tip you just shared is everything, and it means a lot.
Thanks for the editing tip, pacing is a huge huge huge factor in the vibe of a video
Glad to see you back, Dan!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us! 🙏😍
That’s the one thing changed the way I record and edit my reels - CONSTANT MOTION. Really only a few frames here and there, some zoom action and it takes your content to another level. Really good advice!
broo, this was really good daniel
great to see you back
Awesome and very insightful Daniel.
The goat had returned! Man I look up to you so much dude
Another banger Daniel, you’re the 🐐
That's great tip, and the way you explain that amazing.
OMG! That photo-realistic backdrop! What? Where?? Love that! I’ve got those other common ones that look like various surfaces, but never seen that one before!!
Thank you very much for the lessons!👍🌍
Thank you for this! Great information and definitely going to practice it on my next video!
Well played sir, this gets my gripe every time editors miss these small but huge details. Thanks Daniel ~Smile oN
Thanks for the tip Daniel!
Showing the lack of jump cuts was the perfect example! Great video as always 😊
Thanks for teaching me something I never knew before!
🤯 oh my goodness! This is so true and now I’m going to see it In every video. Great stuff
This is one of the BEST advise for editors.
I love the new logo!
Great tip! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing. Always get something out of your information and professional approach.
Daniel, thanks a lot for not making 10 minute video just because algorithms work like that 🙌 Your videos are always useful and interesting to watch 😍
My goodness I am going to be obsessed with the action window. Possibly the best tip I've seen. I often waited for the action to go completely through the frame not anymore. Just the best bits. Quick snappy edits are my future. You have really nicely articulated how to have a punchy quick video.
Great video... as always
I simply love you! 😁🤩
Very helpful indeed.
Thank you for uploading
Daniel, great tip! Thank you for this video. It will help me a lot with editing my calligraphy videos.
Bravo! I feel entertained.
pacing is so important. Thanks for sharing homie!
I never thought about it the way you described it, but I realize as someone who edits alot of Music videos and montages, this is basically the number 1 rule. Great Video, thanks for giving me some new definitions to keep in mind! :D
great way off adressing this issue, very creative, thank you!
Nice to see you man!! Keep going on 👏👏🙌🙏🙏👍👍👊👊
Well, I enjoy every single second of Daniel’s video.🙂 3:30
Great work 👍👏
My dude still pushing out content! 👏👏👏
Master at work ❤️. I just shot a short film a few days ago and i did not leave space for pacing in my shots and I had the issue while editing. Either the shots were before action or they were lingering shots.
But now I've understood how to make the video.
Thank you 😊
something so small yet so effective
thanks bro
Yet another great editing tip
Helped a lot, thank you🎉
Great video...thanks for sharing such a lovely tip

This is so awesome! 😊
Hi Daniel, I've been following your videos for a long time and they give me meaning for what I want to do in life.
As a beginner/intermediate, I have a video suggestion for you. In order to give a guideline to enthusiasts, it would be interesting to make a video on the essentials to have to start with, a small studio at home. Even if it means making a list in order of priority. :)
I did some research, but we quickly fell into a rabbit hole with all the lights, diffusers, back drops and accessories such as sliders and filters.
Thank you again for your wonderful inspiring work!
Thank you love it. Very helpful ❤
yep ... editing graffiti stuff for years now and I quickly discovered that action window edit trick pretty quickly myself to get that "perfect" flow/pacing for my edits ... so 110% agree with you!!!! cheers!
just simple n realllyyyyy good
Expert advice!!!! ❤ Thank you!!!!
Another way of saying this (or something related to this topic) is to CUT ON ACTION. Which is such a simple technique that gives your film or video much better pacing and makes it feel like one cohesive piece.
Studio lookin 10/10!
Love this tip. Even 1 extra frame outside that window could truly throw off a sequence
Brilliant!
Thanks Daniel. DELAYED SHOTS - LINGERING SHOTS... Guilty as charged.
I shall pay more attention to my cuts from this day forward.
Incredible.
Good Point, thank you for sharing 🙏
wow thx for the video. super helpful
Had a video mentor say two simple words about his editing and shooting mentality; "Action only"
Definitely reminded of this recently and wish I could go back and change some old work!
This has actually been one of my pet peeves.
"Action window " the new magic word for me when editing
Thank you for so useful tip
Daniel we need MORE vids!
Well said!! ❤❤❤
Great tip! Never looking at videos the same way again when i see this now 🙈😃
Nice, thanks for putting in words something I knew but wasn’t fully aware of. Love the little joke at the end 👍
This is an underrated understanding in general and I'll admit that I was guilty of this for a long long time. I eventually figured it out from watching a lot of other people's work and realizing over and over again that I was being far too precious with my clips thinking that "more was more", when it really wasn't. And so looking back at stuff from 5 years ago can be pretty painful, as time away from those projects makes me scream at the screen: "move on already!"
It was that changing in thinking that finally got me to realize, just hit the sweet spot of action, and like you say not leaving time before or after. Sometimes I think it's appropriate to have "delayed action" or a "lingering shot" (as you say), but that is by far in the minority of cases and should only be used to inform the viewer. It's particularly useful if it's about a character as an example being very methodical or hyper deliberate. But even in that case you'd likely hold the shot to show the action being repeated, methodically. Certainly for a reel or any commercial you'd virtually never do this on the order of 99.99% of the time.
The other way it has been discussed in "classic film-making" is "always cut on the action", not after. We don't need to even see the completion (as you note in this video) virtually any of the time. Our minds create that for us. This is so simple, so basic, yet so vital. Because we though seeing it in others' work may not grasp it for ourselves. And as I noted at the beginning, I feel like it took me far too long to realize how common a mistake it was in my own work (and I'm still guilty of it sometimes. The longer I work on a piece, generally the more honed it becomes, but virtually all my fast edits should be trimmed down more).
This has to be the funniest thing I have ever seen, watching you sit there and look into the camera in silence 😂
After a Long Time I am watching your video I am so happy to see you again 😊❤
ryan trahan does keeping the shot longer intentional for comedic reasons and it works, but as you said its the exception
Great tips.
Omg!!! This is sooooo helpful! I’m just about to start my youtube channel! Thank you so much! 👏👏👏😊❤
Fantastic
I’ve been aware of this “action window” editing notion for a bit after seeing how my earlier videos seem to dra…
…aaaag with actionless delays.
