So great to see your process. Sometimes self doubt creeps in for me and then I see that top editors like you are doing the same things really makes me feel more confident. Thanks!!
Absolutely LOVED this interview!! I’m glad to have discovered your work through this @ybchangofficial 😍 Super creative and strategic… the perfect left & right brain 🧠 mix!! 🤓👏🏼 xx Tania
Great to see YB featured! When I worked on the Try Guys videos at BuzzFeed they were pretty big on making sure that the talking head shots were always pushing the action/narrative forward instead of commenting on the past (aka post thoughts). They wanted to keep you in the moment and not narrate so heavily that it feels like a fleeting moment to the viewer. So it makes sense that they got rid of the post thoughts entirely. Although their shows still follow the traditional outline and tropes we used at buzzfeed (cold open, hard cutting music on funny moments, relying on showing opposite things on screen for comedy "hey don't do this thing" then showing them do that thing haha) the Try Guys do have backgrounds in filmmaking/ acting respectively. So specifically Eugene and Zach used to leave heavy notes on how to make small changes to a video to make it feel more like a tv show and veer away from the usual BuzzFeed content as much as possible. They used to also take the edit and experiment with tweaks themselves to see what was and wasn't working. So that is a big reason why their edits now feel more TV-ready because they've intentionally put a lot of work over the years into getting it to feel that way. And it's now the norm. They genuinely care about that. It's been great to watch their videos and see how they've evolved the style over the years to take on a life of its own but still being grounded in the frantic BF style that they started with.
I work as the only video editor at a multimedia production company, also i'm working on my UA-cam channel about video editing on the side and I can't thank you guys enough for this project. This channel really feels its made by editors for editors. Excellent guests, questions and stories make this one, hands down, one of my favorite UA-cam channels of all time. Thank you so much, and keep the content going!!!
22:10 everyone is rightfully triggered by this download folder malpractice! (love the variety of people you all are highlighting - makes your show so useful)
Just posted 13 minutes ago!!!! Fantastic!! .... I told my secretary to hold all calls! (Wait...I don't have a secretary....that was my cat....same difference)
I am BEYOND STOKED you interviewed YB :D ever since her first editing breakdown of a without a recipe, she's been a major inspiration to me as an editor. Her determination and organization is relentless :)
LOVED this video. I haven’t watched a single Try Guys video but I gained soooo much insight from this interview! Some fave moments: 1. Talking about pre and post thoughts 2. YB’s organization and workflow (so crazy and admirable!) and how the organization helps with handing over the project to another editor 3. YB going over the editing, feedback, and reviewing process for a Try Guys video 4. The tips on music - only use for 30 seconds max and the hard cut during a joke Also thank you for the extra visuals in this episode! Helped visualize the lessons and concepts
If anyone ever needs animal shots, let me know, that’s all I have 😂 Sorry, I’m laughing because it’s my niche so what a great intro for me specifically haha. Just sitting back to watch this episode now- somehow I missed this one, I swear UA-cam didn’t send me a notification! Regardless, excited to watch!
You should tag them as creative common licensed so people who are looking for stock footage on UA-cam can find them easier. Maybe that can get you some exposure.
YB has such an interesting take on this! I don't particularly care about editing and still listening to her talking about her art is fascinating. She has such an enthusiasm! Thank you guys for this interview.
Normally in reality tv they get subjects to speak in present tense in their post interviews. For the reasons you outlined. Just to keep the audience in the moment.
tHanks for the details of how a video is pieced together by a team.......and tHanks for the human moment at the very end. Great video...Great Podcast.........It is time for breakfast....oh, That's great too!
Color Coding is VERY!!! important it saves me so much time and makes the timeline "searchable." I couldn't imagine changing music every 30sec it takes me 3hrs minimum to find "THE" song. I for some reason find it hard to reuse the same song because I fear it makes the viewer feel like they've seen the video before.
This was amazing. My timelines always look like a tornado dumpster fire. Hearing about how she is so meticulously careful about keeping everything organized is awe-inspiring. Thank you so much!
Would like you guys to check out a movie called "Thallumaala" specifically for its editing . Want to know what you guys and other editors watching this think about it !
Just wanted to say thank you so much ! I’ve been following your videos on your main channel (Hillier Smith) for a few weeks and I’m always looking forward to a new one. Very instructive, no nonsense, fun, honest … please don’t stop before I pass the 100k mark and give you a shoutout for it!
One of the main reasons why film/tv industry still uses Avid is because of its stability. No unexpected crushes which is very important if you work on serious projects.
I use CapCut! 🤭🫣😂Haha! I have never invested in a video editing software, but I hope to sometime soon to open up my options with variability in editing.
Thanks for having me!! I love doing behind the scenes 🥰
You use more colors than I do lmao. GG

I gotta say that I’m really happy to see the variety of people getting invited to the editing podcast ❤

Best editing channel on the platform! You guys have helped me so much 🙏

This felt like 5 minutes! Really enjoyed this 😊
I love how she avoided saying the man who shall not be named

Yay YB!🙌🏻
YB is so talented and pretty! I didn't expect to learn so much from this video before I clicked on. Please keep doing these amazing interviews! ❤
Three of my faves!
Just posted 13 minutes ago!!!! Fantastic!! .... I told my secretary to hold all calls!
(Wait...I don't have a secretary....that was my cat....same difference)
Another great episode!! I took some awesome notes!
ayooo u should get mack and eirc or johnny harris and his editors on the pod. both prob the best editing on youtube right now
I love this channel but it always bothers me how the faces are blurry on the wide shot lol
I am BEYOND STOKED you interviewed YB :D ever since her first editing breakdown of a without a recipe, she's been a major inspiration to me as an editor. Her determination and organization is relentless :)
Not meant to offend anyone, but Women In general Edit way better than most man (if not all)
Yeah, you're right on this one. Being an editor was a woman's job in Hollywood years ago.
This is quickly becoming one of my fav channels
The hooks are so good
LOVED this video. I haven’t watched a single Try Guys video but I gained soooo much insight from this interview!
Some fave moments:

Wow she’s awesome love it
Can we please see the full interview
Can i just say how much value i find in this channel.. Kudos go out to you and your team.. Thankyou
As a Try Guys fan I’ve got so much admiration for the work that YB does. Glad to see her on your podcast!!
when she said she watches in 2x speed I feel so validated I always do that yesssss
Could you guys break down some of your Mr.Beast Edits? Like you are going to interview each other? :D
Wait not all professional editors are oragnized? I guess I am special too lmao
This girl is a woman after my own heart!
The way she laughed at CapCut was like a dagger through my heart 😂
Capcut's good for editing fast and simple content for social media, but for big projects, hell no!
15:15 Finally.....someone shares how they can wrap their mind around keeping so many pieces of the puzzle in order! tHank you x 1000!

This has been the most valuable video yet! I love learning from these editors 🤘

@@itskius lol... What do u mean?
@WW Studios am subscribed to you haha. Didn't expect to see you here
@@itskius LOL... that's really funny! Thanks for watching my stuff xD. I watch a bunch of editing vids haha
Reason for the Turkey?????
I think this interview proves that this channel and its community could probably benefit from a crash course in file/sequence management.
One of the main reasons why film/tv industry still uses Avid is because of its stability. No unexpected crushes which is very important if you work on serious projects.
I think stock footage can be scary for new editors because we don't have a sense of how copyright works for it.
This is such a quality podcast. Coming from Jordan's channel and I really shouldn't have been surprised lol
I LOVE YB!
Thank you YB and editing podcast guys! Raza :)
sidemen
I use CapCut! 🤭🫣😂Haha! I have never invested in a video editing software, but I hope to sometime soon to open up my options with variability in editing.
