How to Make Minecraft Videos! - Ask a Minecrafter (Ep.7)

- Опубліковано 3 тра 2024
- Today in Ask a Minecrafter we're answering one of the most frequently asked questions of all: how do you make a Minecraft video?
Note to MCPE and Console Edition players: this episode focuses mostly on capturing from PC Minecraft. Capturing video from your console or mobile device typically requires extra hardware (video capture cards and the like), or using your console's native "share" features. I don't have experience recording outside of PC, so I didn't include those in the video.
If you have expertise recording MCPE or MCCE, feel free to leave your advice in the comments!

firstly, i have to figure out to record when my parents' are breathing down my back.
Lol same
Brooooo same I have to end up recording from 1am to 5am so my parents don’t find out. My girlfriend doesn’t like that because I’m always sleeping in class but I think it’s worth it.
Alexander Castillo I see potential🤔
Same.
Ok so I found a way around this. I’ve adopted a different sleep schedule. It’s called polyphasic sleep cycle. It’s where you take a bunch of short naps through out the day rather then one long slumber. I like doing a 20 minute nap every 4 hours. 12am 4am 8am 12pm 4pm and 8pm. This allows me to be up at night without waking up at 2pm😊.
tip from creator: dont look at your hate comments or analytics when you start off, if you spent 5 hours on a video which only got 2 views you will get really upset so just dont look at those things which make you sad! always look on the bright side of your channel.
One of the best of advices I've seen here. 😃👍
unfortunately I don’t even get comments on my video
wow I wish I saw that earlier, when i started my channel I was spending hours on each video, getting upset when they only got like 10 views and none of my friends even watched them
How can you say that actually? Ur not even that big of a UA-camr 💀 but whatever ig
I spent 50 hours for 500 views haha
I don't make videos that often but when I do, you need to put effort into them. I mainly animate, but I was planning to make minecraft vids, hence why I'm here. When I animate, I have to stick with a main focus, and I have to put enough quality so people don't think I'm lazy.
126 likes and no comments?
Lol
I literally failed the first thing: I have a laptop, and my family has a 10 year old computer, and the computer is slower then my laptop
Edit on phone then :P
@@safi3968 It wont even run minecraft, also he never said he had a phone.
@@exodus3284 at least he tried to help lol
@@exodus3284 you can play Minecraft on mobile
@YoYayYa Lol same
Words of advice... Have fun, guys! Don't be bored in your videos, be enthusiastic, but not forced! Record when you want to, don't record because you feel forced.
A tip I learned from Mr. Beast is to record 3 to 5 videos at once (before uploading any) so that you can release all at once and have 'recommended' content ready for them to watch after the first vid. Will increase your watch time and click through rates almost instantly right from the start. Good for getting recommended to others to watch you.
Thank you
Words of advice to other UA-camrs, upload at a specific time on a specific day, my subscribers went up from this.
sure lol
LegendLarry Productions can u sub to me? Lol
@@infinitworld7106 i will and u do ok
Ty
i do this
I think the problem with my channel is that I don't upload consistently. Thats mainly because of my schedule, but also cuz Im lazy. through this summer, I have uploaded more consistently cuz I got more time, and I have gained subs. So yeah, upload consistently. Whether its every day or once a month, just make sure people know when they can come back for more
I make videos using the replay mod, it's like having a second camera account and you can get some really good camera shots. great for time lapses and machinama style scenes, it also is less laggy than using a capture device in my case
+ShaneH7646 Is replay mod out for 1.9 yet? Didn't know if they'd made the switch yet or not.
+Pixlriffs not yet sadly, an elytra flight would look pretty awesome in it
I tried to use replay mod, but I couldn’t save the clips so... do you know how to save the clips to my computer
@@TheOwlUA-camr you can record the replay mod clips using OBS
@@piglyy8903 I think you need FFMPEG, Which is a pain for installing. I followed a tutorial but it just. won't. work!
My tip is act like your talking straight to a real person, when doing commentary
Yeah you should only use scripts if your are making a video like AVGN
Ok thx
kinda hard to do that when my parents are breathing down my neck
OBS has great multichannel audio recording configuration options - this lets you record game audio and mic audio to isolated channels so that you can mix and master them independently of each other in your editing software without needing a whole other recording setup.
how do i do this?
I've come back to this video multiple times, usually asking different questions and Google pointing me back here. Even years later I find Pix's suggestions helpful and still relevant! The questions have varied over time, such as what software, what hardware, editing tips, recording audio - I'm still finding the best answers in this same video than pretty much any other hit. Thanks, Pix!
im banned from hypixel PERMANANTLy Because my dad paid and is says that somebody else paid for my MVP=
Can i play in mineplex
He probably charged back
Vertux Yeah that’s bannable
no mineplex is cringe idc if this comment is 1 year old no
F
@@Mustish its 9 month old
Don't loose hope, and keep going! everything takes work and it pays off in the end!
Thx a lot. This is such a good overview for new content creators to overthink their business and start proper. :)
Thanks a million, Pixlriffs! These guidelines are very helpful. I'm gonna try them myself.
Oh hi there Vloop fancy seeing you here
@@RegiRegi Yeah! REEE!!!! 😊
I've been hunting for this subject, and to find it by a mc pro no less. Sweet! Great upload! Thanks you.
I may try doing this soon since I live in my own apartment. It's always been interesting. Thank you for this video.
i’m so excited, i’ve been wanting to make videos for so long, i’m finally going to be able to. i’m new but i have a laptop just enough storage for some software, and i love minecraft. i’m exciteddddd
I once spent 8 hours editing a video because we had so much footage and the audio didnt align so i had to manually align the audio and footage and it got 26 views haha
i am there to support u bro I can understand ur pain but support back will be great
My videos (specifically the tutorials) take an hour to make and can still crank out 30-40 views (on my other channel)
Same here 🥲
I spent 28 hours recording a hardcore series just to find out that the ender dragon fight and another 5 hours of footage was corrupted. Something always goes wrong when I try to start something on UA-cam. 😢
I spent 1 hr editing and it got 60 views on my other channel
Thanks for this, Pixlriffs! This was really helpful! :D
My advice only applies to people who are willing to spend money on editing software and who use an nvidia graphics driver. I use the GeForce experience which is free to record my videos and audio but you can choose another recording software which you prefer. Next I use adobe premiere pro and photoshop to make my thumbnail and video. But sometimes I can get a friend to make a thumbnail if I’m busy (which means you don’t need to pay someone to make it) and I’m lucky enough to have a friend who specialises in graphic design and coding so I could get him to make a 3D intro or just a normal thumbnail for absolutely free. So you will need:
Money for editing and thumbnail making sofware
You can have a friend make your thumbnail or help out
Any free recording sofware which doesn’t pack a punch on your computer which gives you smooth 60+ FPS videos
I've been watching your videos for years, and finally am ready to take my Minecraft game to the monetization level. I googled, "how do I make a Minecraft video?" and there you were at the top.
My god, man! Thank you!
Straight to the point and very helpful!
Thank you :)
hiihiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiihiihihihihihihihiiiiiiii
Hi, Pixlriffs! I am literally using Bandicam for recording my tutorial videos to upload on YT but it's a bit laggy but this video really helps a lot thank you so much Pixlriffs!!!
Thanks for the help even in 2021! It is helpful!
Sooooo, basically I open this video and there's a literal freaking ad that rick rolled me.
No time to go into vast detail about how I make videos, and I'm sure I'll forget to leave a comment later, so I'll stick to the basics. I use Fraps to record the game, and Vegas Pro for editing. I have a 1TB external hard drive specifically for recording and other YT stuff........ Okay, and Steam games. 1TB is a bit much for what I do. xD Fraps doesn't work with all games, though (Not surprising, as it HASN'T BEEN UPDATED AT ALL SINCE 2013), so for anything else, I use OBS! Where Game/Window capture fails, Monitor Capture to the rescue! That's how I've had to record my videos on Windows 10 Edition.
When making LP videos, I generally have a plan in mind, then I record different clips. I like to mix progress updates with on-camera moments so it doesn't get stale, and of course timelapses occasionally. I've seen YTers who just make massive, entire-video timelapses, and I've seen YTers who just record one clip and then upload it with barely any progress (BORING). It's a tough middle ground to get, though.
This video inspired me to start my channel and I plan to upload constant minecraft videos, thanks for this
one thing that obs have added that i love is that u can actully pause the recording and then unpause it again and just continue recording what u whant
Congatulations Pixlriffs!!! :]
Thanks for the tips! This video is quite helpful!
this advice is great thanks
OMG this video helped me so much! thx Pixs!
I am just starting but I am going to be uploading weekly (sometimes daily) I don’t know about editing that much so thanks for the editing softwares ima use them!
I do videos on a different channel, but I use obs for game play and you can put audio and game play on different audio tracks. If im doing a voice over with a script I use audacity. I use davinci resolve to edit, which can be seen as a bit of overkill because they edit marvel movies using it but it is free and to me it was easy to learn. I have a $1300 msi laptop that can play and record bedrock edition easily at 1080p 59.9 fps since you can't see that .1 difference and it helps save power that the game might need. I have a samson g-track pro mic which I got for about $160 and it sounds wonderful as well as its a usb mic and game with an arm and pop filter. In obs I use a noise gate, suppression, expander, and a couple other things to fix the audio and what not. Im military and live on base so theres constant jets going off but I try to edit those out when I can and the filters for the mic make them not sound quite as loud as they actually are since I live RIGHT next to the flightline and can't change that. Im a small youtuber though but am hoping to grow. I also use gimp to make my thumbnails, so everything I use to record and what not is free. Audacity is used for the voiceovers btw. Hope this might help someone if they come across this video again
This really helped me thank you
thanks and so cool yes thank you for the editing
So, I use OBS to record Minecraft. I record my mic with it too. I ALSO added a webcam, so I have a tiny box at the bottom showing my reactions. KDEN Live to edit. It really is just the best, UNLESS you have MASSIVE video sizes. Then you have to work with proxy clips.
I came to this video because I wanted to know how other Minecrafters do all their setups: camera shots and engagement with the audience in-game. Whether it's Grian or Bdubbs or Scar, everyone seems to have mastered some method for a static camera recording them building something, then close up face-to-face talking. I thought I was looking for a tutorial on filming Minecraft. Maybe I have the wrong phrase?
Anyhow have you done a video on that, or do you know of whatever series everyone else is learning from?
thank you wise man!
this will help me alot!
Thank you so much, this was super helpful
Your voice sounded familiar then I remembered the hermitcraft recap
he is the guy who does the voice for that mate, are u still there its been a year hope u read this idk it makes sad when i see someone who commented years ago and dont come back
Yeah i recognised his voice then realised I listen to The Spawn Chunks
Pixlriffs, my man.
Thank you.
Thanks Pixlriffs!
This is super helpful. I am just starting out making videos, going through growing pains, but making small improvements. Thanks.
My son wants to start a channel ASAP, so I'm looking for tips galore! Best of luck to you!
Thanks! This really helps! You have inspired me to make another video.
Thank you Pixlriffs Ive just begun and i noticed the clipchamp watermark and now I'm considering obs
like pixlriffs said, you dont need to have and amazing recording, you just need to be having fun. I use xbox game bar, and i have fun.
Personally I use Nvidia GeForce Experience to record the clips. For my commentary/voiceover I use Adobe audition so I can edit the audio and remove background noise easier. I import all of it into premiere pro and finalize the editing. Then I make the thumbnail in photoshop and upload it.
Thanks for the tip. Do you also have a Minecraft channel? And how do you record the scenes
Rite so.
Im finaly starting to record test version videos before actualy releasing one.
I play on xbox one bedrock and use twitch to stream on my console. Then i sign in to my twitch on my phone. Open up my live video and use my screen recorder to record it. I can use the xbox headset to talk on video. Only problem is is that most of my mc friends use discord which means i cant record that voice chat because the mics already in use.
But for now so far so good.
Thanks this helps my channel a LOT
I know this is an older video, but thank you for sharing your process!
thank you for making this video now i know
Thanks this has helped sooooo much 😀
Hey Pixelriffs. I love your content and videos. Would you consider doing an updated version of this video showing the latest hardware and software you use to make your content? I think a lot of people would be interested in that.
It's funny that you mention the trial version of bandicam, because that's how I started recording Minecraft videos XD Luckily I had the money to drop on it to buy the full version and have used it ever since.
I try to stick with not too long videos with at least some good content and usually a shenanigan or two. Timelapses are a blast, but take more time than I have nowadays (which makes me sad).
thanks for the awesome tips it will help me in my vids
Dude.. Just, dude. I loved you before, and now... I adore you. Thank you! You should get a cut whatever I make in the future. Thank you!!!
I think one of my biggest issues so far is adding more direction to my videos so the audience knows what they are watching
this is the best how to make a minecraft video ever
this make so much sence then the over ones
I play guitar and the name Pixlriffs makes me happy. subbed
this is amazing
You definitely earned a like and sub out of me, my man. Thank you for helping me get started.
Thx for the awesome video
I am starting two channels an animation channel and a Minecraft channel this help soooo much!
Hi, I loved this video. Can you please explain how you get the view from above the build but still be able to see yourself building it bellow, such as in
Such as in 5:49 to 5:56 when you are building that massive dragon.
replay mod
I use Openshot, it to s free and very easy to use. No watermark and can do 1080p 60fps, I also use OBS as my capture.
Thankyou that video helped me A lot
Holy crap! This video REALLY helped my channel grow!
Thank you so much!
Pixlriffs... You're a legit human being. Thank you.
8k subs hype, well deserved
For those who are younger and have very low budget a ps4 and a headset with decent mic will be all you need to buy, after you have your gear download the sharefactory editing application. Congrats your ready to make videos on your ps4.
This is very good advice and I made my own UA-cam channel by taking these words of advice😀
I use Action for recording, which is not free, but fairly cheap, and makes really good quality videos, while using nearly 0 processor time.
For editing, I use Sony Vegas, which is very expensive, and I bought it. Of course. (Pssst. _Not really..._ ) I would change to Adobe Premiere, but I'm used to Vegas, hard to change.
Only 1 tip for you: Use the same software from the beginning, because if you learn a software to the max, and it is not enough, it's really hard to change. For me at least.

I'm Hungarian (and making hungarian videos), sorry for my (potencially very) bad English... Only know English from UA-cam! (Thanks for that: Hermits, CGP Grey, SciSchow, Kurzgesagt, and so on...)
I started a Minecraft channel recently and this has been super helpful to me. Thx so much!! :D
SharpenedShords 13 subscribers
Irena Vozgirdiene so?
SharpenedShords so what
idk
When you don't know how to comeback lol
Wow, that's a beautiful background you made! Also, great video, very helpful. =D
I think a great starter editing software is DaVinci Resolve because I had never edited something in my life and it was my first software and it was easy and simple to work I just needed a simple tutorial
thx for useful tips gratz
i also think that the full version of bandicam is really good
Is there a playlist where I could see more of these videos I really want to get into Minecraft Let's Plays
THIS WAS HELPFUL
I need more videos like this bc the rest are too sloe and i get bored to quickly this captures my attention
I remember when you only had 200 subs, and when OMGChad put you in his video. Congratulations on 8k subs!
@@depression_isnt_real Oh, wow! Can't believe his channel grew this much. It's also cool to see him verified. Very interesting that I knew him back when he only had a couple hundred subs
ah you made me feel old
Omgggggggg!!! It really work thank you
i just use fraps to record and have a cheap headset with a mic,i don't have a good pc but it's just about good enough to make videos,my only advice is to have fun and enjoy yourself doing whatever you like to do
This advice is best advice.
Thank you for a helpful video
its always the guy from 7 years ago that has the best advice
Thank you
how do you do the thing at 5:51 where you have the camera somewhere and you build soumething
thank u bro
the 3rd step: im on bandicam where you can use a volume, there are the pc volume, and microphone volume. i recorded one video when i have no microphone and my voice was being in the video... so i don't really need that. well i'm gonna continue
Honestly i started my minecraft channel using my Samsung s8+, i play,record, and create videos on it 😄 i also edit on it
Thanks Man
Well this was really useful advice!!
Here is a suggestion for any content creators out there, despite the fact that im not a youtuber myself, yet, here is the tip: Record what you love to do and it will increase the amount of subs and views you will get!
I'm a content creator :D
And I really like minecraft but I've been too lazy to edit the videos But I will upload a bunch of Minecraft videos soon
As a top tip for a free editing software I sugest Davinci Resolve 17
Thank you for the help I’m creating something called the shadow saga it’s basically a Steve saga and I need to know how to edit for when I get my brothers old laptop and I think it might be able to run Minecraft and recording
The video is good, and then I heard that you using the Linux, respect going up xdd :DD I didn't know that, that's awesome!
This helps me
I just started making pvp videos and I use obs for screen rec and openshot video editor to edit, both free
