Video week day 3; editing


[Note: If you can't see the video that is right up here ^, don't worry! Just click back to the post and you will be able to see it just fine.]

Once you have captured your video (either from a camera or from a software program like iShowU) you need to edit it down and add any final touches that you want. iMovie is the program that I use for my editing, but there are many solutions out there. These drag-and-drop systems make it very user friendly and the quality of the transitions and titles make the end product look professional.

Previous topics:

Upcoming topics include:


  • Thursday: How I edit and produce the final product
  • Thursday: How and where I distribute the videos
  • Friday: Reader questions

And remember, on Friday I will answer any questions that you have. To stay in the theme of the week it would be excellent if you provided your questions in video (either on Facebook or on YouTube) and I will edit them in. I will, as always, accept any questions you have by email or by commenting on this post.

So start thinking and let me know what's on your mind. I can't wait to hear from you!

Hey Matt,

Great series! I do this stuff every day, but still learned a few things from you!

[On comment, I think in your closing at 3:33 when you mentioned Adobe After Effects, you meant to say Adobe Premiere... yes? I think After Effects has way too much of a learning curve for beginners, and really isn't for video editing anyway.]

Keep up the great work! :)
