anyone that can turn editing into a relaxing thing is either already insane or took 2 tablets of dexmethylphenidate. but if you can find a way to make it relaxing it's good for both parties. good to know you have fun at points too.

I think the best way to edit is too Do it little by little

Yeah ikr. Exactly same thoughts. Your videos are great tho

Jello

okay boomer

Thanks for putting so much effort these videos. Always entertaining to watch :)

Agreed, this is good content

I'm very slowly finding ways to speed up bit by bit

Same! People do not appreciate just how long even a short video takes to stitch together.

I have no idea on what it's like to edit a video so instead of just assuming the amount of work you do, I'll just have to believe everything you say since I don't understand a thing about editing.

Ksp videos magically become long to edit lol

Which editor is it? I'm trying to find a decent free video editor --- currently I use Blender, which is _mostly_ pretty good, but it doesn't support much in the way of annotation features so adding text or graphics is hard. Export is ruinously slow, too.

it just keeps going

@@evanmagill9114 Bro it's Danny2462, YA NEED TO CHECK UR SPELLING

it really does!

@@Danny2462 There's your problem! You appear to be using a version of Selection Sort, or maybe Insertion Sort at the very best. Instead of building up the timeline one clip at a time, try putting ALL the clips on the timeline at the same time, then repeatedly dividing them into pairs until a coherent video emerges!

Me on 0.5X "12 take it or play it on 0.25X"

Shut up kerzegaht or whatever that German name is

Like you have anything to say with those buttery smooth animations that take like a year to make

@@Kuro-Dama Kurzgesagt lol

@@MGSLurmey lots of people think I'm kurzgesagt and I guess it sorta makes sense? I mean I have an earth icon but my name and the icon aren't the same

Actually yes

Lots of people think a few minutes take low multiples of that in editing time, one of the reasons I wanted to be transparent with this is exactly for people like you. If you don't know what it takes to do some things, you compare yourself to the results unfairly.

ahah my brain energy has succeeded! and thanks!

Whats the joke?

@@BaxterCash Watch the video to find out ;)

@@MGSLurmey I watched the whole thing. I still don't get it.

Every creative process contains a big spoonful of pain! But the joy of releasing things makes it worth it.

both times I tried Premiere, the UI/UX crippled not only my speed, but I straight up couldn't get over that it had no play/pause/stop distinction, and couldn't return playhead to start on pause (and many other problems)

@@Danny2462 interesting...

I like DaVinci Resolve over both -definitely legally acquired copies of- Premiere and Sony Vegas plus its free xd, it seems to render pretty fast but I like it mostly for the color grading shit

premiere pro is especially vomit imo, I tried switching to it two times and in both cases the user experience drove me up the wall and away

Yeah, I had to force myself into it. It can be gross.

I still don't totally like mine either!

Negligible besides the tens / hundreds of GBs of lossless MagicYUV 2.0 encoded source recordings. Similar file sizes to Fraps recordings, if that helps.

I am incredibly biased against Premiere. I have always used Vegas, I tried Premiere twice, but both times it drove me nuts. The UI is atrocious, the only crossfade you can quickly do (dissolve) had an opacity bug, and I can't easily do other crossfades, stretch / compress clips which I use extensively for beat-matching, and I couldn't even bear the play/pause in PP because the playhead didn't return to the start on pause. I often spam space to see the same few seconds over and over, not being able to do that in Premiere got me real annoyed. People coming from PP to Vegas have the same kind of annoyance with other stuff. It can do the things you need it for, but going nuts while using it is another question. Do try it though.

@@Danny2462 Thank you for the advice! I originally tried out davinci resolve because you can get it for free, but it did not work for me. Not only can I just not create titles quickly enough to support my style, and i hate how you have to constantly switch modes. Right now I am using Premiere Rush on the free trial, and it works good enough as a basic editor, but the fact that it is linear makes final adjustments impossible without messing up timings, and it just isn’t powerful enough. I think that the main barrier is just changing your workflow to mach the editor, because I remember disliking premiere for those reasons. I will try Vegas though, just because I need something more powerful. Thank you for your great response, and sorry for rambling!

1/ VEGAS Pro, costs $200-400+ , I got an older version from a humble bundle which I then upgraded through upgrade discounts so I have no clue tbh. 2/ Explained in the text in the video 3/ Yes 4/ Was fun in the past, then I burned myself out when I tried to mass-produce the vids, now I'm dragging my feet, but I'm getting my mojo back for it 5/ Sometimes I get scared I may not find content-worthy stuff, so yes. It's the reason I started moving away from just showcasing glitches 6/ I have no idea what any of that means

@@Danny2462 Thank you:D (I whaned to suggest with 6. that you'd pre-write the description (or parts of it) before and then copp-paste it into the desription...)

Only difference is that I do 6h at once lol terrible idea

whoops I should've mentioned that somewhere, I'll put it in the description - MAGIX VEGAS Pro 16

@@Danny2462 Thanks! It's a really cool editor.

I remember Scott being surprised by that feature too on twitter ages ago. You right click the vertical bar you drag to adjust the fade duration, and an overlay pops up with all the crossfade combinations. You may have to right click at the top or bottom of it, not sure, I just do it out of muscle memory.

@@Danny2462 ah okay, thank you :)

Completely random. Sometimes I stumble onto something and it just works, sometimes I have to go back and record / re-record, and sometimes I actively have to find more stuff / explore the glitch / re-try a scene multiple times. There's no way to tell
