Great video. Th color coding of clips was extremely helpful.

"You don't have to make good decisions, you just have to start making decisions" is incredible advice. Amazing video, thank you Juni

Really loved that Quote right know. Kinda eye opening for me.

I love how the rough draft stage is just like it is in writing. "You don't need to make good decisions, you just need to make _some_ decisions." Also known as - you can always edit a rough draft, but you can't edit _nothing._ Great video, thanks!

As an editor myself I can only confirm all of the tips Juni Marie has to offer. In the end like in any other video about editing, the most important part has been left out though. Learnt the tips given to you, but try not to use that exact same workflow. Find your own workflow. You will discover soon enough what suits you best. As an example, I never work with colored clips. I mostly know how and where My edits are in the timeline and not knowing where a certain part is, force me to look closer at some other parts of the edit. I know people who clip color only certain parts of edits, like beginning, end, effects or story beats. To each his own.

LOVE this video and the entire team at VJUS. Been watching your videos (silently) for years. I'm a professional editor myself and want to add to your tips! 1. I found myself spending a lot of time changing clip colors because every time you have to right click -> label -> scroll to color -> click. I bought a Stream Deck and put all the colors on there with text labels on them. Now, I just tap the color on the stream deck and it changes the clip color. The text label keeps it consistent from video to video + if someone else wants to take over the edit they'll know what the colors represent because they can read it on the Stream Deck. 2. Leftover breath sounds between cuts (like in this video at 2:51, 3:23, etc) can be eliminated or reduced easily in Resolve. If you put your mouse pointer towards the top of an audio clip, a white arrow will appear. Click and drag that to the left/right to create a quick cross fade. By applying a 1-5 frame cross fade, you can get rid of those breath sounds!

THANK YOU for mentioning the blinking. I’ve seen so many videos where the editor clearly isn’t focused on the character’s blinking. It’s such a small thing but it really makes a big difference!

I'm at 7min30 and I love so much this confession about your difficulty of establishing a rough draft. Probably my biggest struggle too, and it's nice to hear this from you and not just some tips pretending this task had nothing special.

The AI voice-over starting at 8:32 sounds like Snoop Dogg made me chuckle. 😄Love the use of J-cuts and L-cuts. I'm learning! Thank you!!

One of the best editing videos I've ever seen. So different from what I'm sued to seeing which is people just rehashing the same basic tips. Love this!

thank you guys, especially Juni, for taking the time to share these valuable tips and techniques with us.

As a rookie editor, 25 videos of me making art, I am enthralled with the editing process! Just started this journey at 63 😎

Thanks for this! I’m glad I finally found someone else that says to take a break after you do your first pass. For goodness sakes I have had lots of people give me grief over this. I always say the final edit is better if you just take a break and for that matter, multiple breaks. It’s amazing how much more you can focus in after giving it a rest. For me the last 10% of an edit is when it gets good and when things really fall together. But that of course is only if you have done the work of being focused and diligent in your selects and rough cuts.

I do pretty much all of this so it's actually really reassuring to see another professional editor use similar workflows to me 😅 Thank you for the video and awesome final result on the commercial 😄

This video is beyond good!! this gives SO much insight for editing, THANK YOU guys SO much!!!

Absolutely LOVE this video!!! Just discovered this channel and I am now hooked!!! Thank you all at VJUS!

That overwhelming feeling when everything has been properly organised and then it’s time to start.. somewhere.. from all that footage.. Bit that feeling transforming into excitement as soon as you see all the pieces properly aligned! Pure satisfaction 😌

You guys are AMAZING! keep posting such informative videos. Thanks!

Been waiting for this one! Tnx

Thank you for approaching a project from a philosophical standpoint with some technical elements. I loved the feel and beauty of the final project.

When you mentioned that sometimes you have to tell the audience what's going on, i realized in my videos i have the opposite problem. i notice when I'm editing, i have this tendency to talk way too much while recording, and sometimes i have to tell myself to just shut up lol and i end up cutting out so much footage of me rambling on. I'm nowhere near your guy's skill level of editing though, but i hope to be one day.

This is an extraordinary explanation! Really loved it. Thanks!

Just pure gold.

Great video! This is hands down one of the most insightful and informative videos I've seen on video editing, and I've watched hundreds of hours of content on the subject. What sets this video apart is that it delves into the creative and strategic aspects of editing that are rarely discussed by other creators in the industry. Most video production content focuses on technical topics like using DaVinci Resolve or improving lighting setups, but this video takes a unique perspective by exploring the editing process from an agency's point of view. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the project's purpose, target audience, and platform before even starting the edit, which is crucial for creating effective and engaging videos. The tips on organizing footage, creating dynamic edits, and combining entertainment with exposition are invaluable insights that can be applied to various types of projects. It's refreshing to see a video that goes beyond the basics and dives into the creative decision-making process that is essential for crafting compelling stories. Thank you for sharing your expertise and providing such valuable content. This video is a must-watch for anyone looking to improve their editing skills and understand the bigger picture of video production. I hope there are many more of these to come

Great inside, THANKS! I love the felling at the being with the draft cut, I feel the same. its overwhelming

Thanks for the tips, it also sparkled some ideas

Make more videos like this. It's so helpful. thank you!

Another awesome video as usual.

Amazing job guys 😊 thanks for your approach, I really fill your growth during a years 🔥

Very, very helpful! Thank you for sharing this...

Such a high quality video, as usual from this channel. I just looked at some of the viewcounts for recent videos and I am a bit disappointed by the low numbers even though the quality is better with each video. Although I am not a big fan, maybe you should start experimenting with more clickbaity titles and thumbnails? This channel deserves far higher viewercounts!

i thought the reason why i feel overwhelm once im done seleccting clips was beacuse im a begginer but you feeling like this too made me realize that its normal to feel like that, thank you for being honest and for the really practical tips that you gave

Brilliant video! Im happy that I found you

Its a video full of useful info and tips to editors no matter the level (delete gaps, blinking…etc).Well explained, clear and dynamic. I would have taken out at least one of the times you expose the video (its the only part a skipped a bit…the draft was not one I passed forward since I was interested to see the process). Thank you for being so open about the way you work. It is funny how it makes me feel better some coincidences like…”where do I start with so much raw footage?!?”. At the end, like you said, we are not robots. Great video👏

love yor content xo keep going guys!

Thank you for your video. It really helps. Whatching from Haiti (W.I.)

So helpful, thank you very much :)

Bravo, beautiful work

Amazing video, great tips. So much knowledge to absorb. My workflow is similar in some aspects, but I will try to incorporate this into the next ones, particularly using different paces and making sure not all the clips have the same length. I have never really thought about that before, but it is a genius way of making the edit more interesting. I hate when people are not coloring the clips on the timeline. It is a nightmare to have to scroll through every single clip. One question: Does the editor (in this case, Juni Marie) colorgrade the project too, or do you have a specific colorist at Vjus? The end result is amazing, love the sound design :-)

So glad you liked it! Color coding has become a must for me too :)) In terms of color grading, usually either Morten or I will grade, but most of us can do grading depending on the project :))

Masterclass.. thank you :)

Wonderful. thank you. I'm a musician now, but I have a masters in film editing and I've been organizing film productions, post, etc for a couple decades now. This process is fluid, and full of human interaction. This video helps tremendously. On the creative 'rough draft' step, I would like to offer what I personally like to do. I take a moment away from the computer (after I've logged and viewed the footage) to put together a rough outline of the 'show' I'm making. Right at that moment when I'm overwhelmed with all the decisions. I like to take my body and put it on top of a mountain, or along a river, nor near a tree, or in my car in the garage (just not in front of the computer). I clear my mind and consider quickly what is important, in this order: END, BEGINNING and MIDDLE. Of course time pressure and client expectations always fight the creative steps, and I've just found that if I get out a blank piece of paper and quickly write down an outline of 'acts', I'm hyper accurate. It makes the next step of artfully throwing things around in a non-linear way easier. For most, it's difficult to transition from the shooting, logging, and prepping phase into the painter of ideas phase. There needs to be a head clear. When it comes right down to it, yeah there are options - but usually the good ones are glaring and sparkling and easy to see. Many many times, what was shot is not what the client wanted to begin with. Anyway, this transition into playful artist is usually cued by finding a 'final shot (or candidates)'. I'll put that in the 'end' timeline-selects-overlength-stringout (whatever you call it). I also have a good idea from the footage how it should start. Sometimes I'll have a vision in my head of a shot that doesn't exists that CONNECTS to what I have and ask for it to be made (or make it). Blessings, RYNO

Nice work!

I never color code my timeline or organize the media pool, it's just 100s of clips lying there like I'm some kind of maniac, haha! The boat comp that Morten did was done REALLY WELL. Also, I never knew the blinking thing, but that's a great tip, thanks! Anyways, watching till the end because it's always solid entertainment!

Really enjoyed this video and I got a lot out of it. I'm also always a sucker for your Norwegian landscapes and colours, which are so cinematic! A couple of minor things: in the voiceover script there are a few lumps and bumps if you are a native English speaker, especially "lies hidden", which should have been "lie hidden", as treasures is plural - it does sound funnily OK and even cool when narrated with a Scandinavian accent, but it isn't correct English. My only other quibble was I felt the shots of the fast food didn't share the dynamism and colours of the rest of the film and that you could have mixed in some macro shots that kinda looked a bit like seaweed or had closer colours to that lovely orange and blue. Otherwise I really envy you the opportunity to work on a lovely project like this - great stuff.

at 1:12, that's an L-cut (sound clip from first video clip continues into second video clip) not a J-cut but we know what you meant. Love the tips, experienced insight and your editing process!

This was your most useful video for me, some great advice from Juni. Can I ask, did you use any stock footage or was all of this filmed by VJUS?

Young and wise!

After selecting the good clips, please explain the storybording process for foundation of the first Rough Cut (Draft), which is the most creative part of this process and it was missing in this video. Thanks for explaing the process.

enjoyed this alot..Question where do u guys get People to get amazing voiceovers? Do u use Ai?

I would like to see videos answering: Do you have a standard set of questions to gather essential information from clients? How do you conduct site surveys and plan for the shoot? What if they are in a location you have to travel to? What is your process for script writing, storyboarding, and shot listing? How much say does the client have in influencing the script, in pre and post? How do you handle client feedback and revisions during the editing process? Do you have a system for archiving project files and footage?

I can absolutely relate to the rough draft horror. A blank canvas is scary af Also I love the snoop dogg AI voice, wonder what the "high quality product" he`s talking about is 😆

I bind the color codes to the numpad, no need to go into context menus to color code them. It is much faster this way. The coincidence to use the same color for drone shots made me giggle a bit!

Superb ! Subscribed b

Here it issssss

How do you deal with video stocking, I think it's the one thing that makes the difference in organizing work... What are your suggestions? Cloud or offline?

My biggest surprise from this video is that people grow their own seaweed in the middle of the ocean. I had no clue that was a thing

Is there anyway to change or how did you change the move clips up/down? Mine seems to have been locked to alt + up/down even though I changed it to E/Ctrl+E

❤

Can you do a video about how you are sourcing your music?

Please do an in-depth workflow review of filmbox plugin.

that snoop Dogg voice over needs to be in the directors cut

bit les renoice, did u use default keys layout

What kind of color coding do you follow?

Can you show how did that effect 10:55?

General question. Who is responsible of text contents ? Are you doing them by yourself, or you leave it to the clients ?

How about sound design?

Great video. The Voiceover does have a grammatical mistake though. At 20:19 It should read "Off the Island of Frøya, lie hidden opportunities" and not "lies hidden opportunities. Great tips though!

Why is no one asking how the boat was removed from the shot and filled the background of the clip perfectly

Hey, anyone worked with nikon z9/z8 so far? I am interested how far you can really push it in the term of grading.
