Hello this is my first post on here so please let me know if I made any mistakes!
I’m trying to edit concert footage and for some reason (I don’t know what I was thinking) I kept turning my phone from landscape to vertical within the same video. Is there any way to make it so that the turning looks “smoother?” I’m not exactly sure how to phrase this question.
Essentially, I want the video to be in one continuous plane where everything is “right side up.” If possible, I’d like not to have to make a cut in the video, but I’m thinking that adding a small fading visual transition might be my only solution here.
Again, apologies if there was a better way to phrase this. Please let me know what y’all think! Thank you :)
I tried looking it up, but couldn't find anything on it. smth where you type in the thing you wanna hear from that game and it'll show you.
I bought a computer with a B650 motherboard, Ryzen 5 7600x, and 32GB of RAM, kept my old 6600XT graphics card. Premiere is sluggish, crashes after a few clicks, (i cant zoom the timeliene for example) and feels like I’m using a 286, while on my old X470/5600X/16GB/6600XT setup it was incredibly fast. Games run perfectly, DaVinci runs perfectly. (CPU and GPU utilization stays below 10%, but in Premiere, just before crashing, CPU utilization spikes to 85%). What could be the issue? Is there a Windows component I might be missing? I tried Premiere pro 25, 24, 23, 22 and 20 in a few hours... Thanks!
I starting to work as a video editor and I wanna specialize in creating videos like the ones on the channels I mentioned, which uses Motion graphics and effects, but I searched and found that most of those channels use Premiere and After effects. is it possible to create that kind of video using only davinci ?
im trying to make my first commentary kind of ramble video, and well, i have a speech impediment, which makes my voice stutter and i pause sometimes for an awkward amount of time... how do i edit those and still keep it natural?
Hi!
I’ve taken a video on my iPhone of my kids interacting & it is so sweet, except I was playing music off my phone at the time. With the old version, music would automatically stop playing when a video started recording however my phone has updated and the music kept playing as the video was being recorded. When I watched the video back all you can hear is the song playing through my phone… Is there an app or some way I can remove the song playing but keep the voices of my children in the actual video?
Thanks 😊

This is the style I’ve been seeing a lot recently and I must say I like it. What I was wondering is if the editor does that themselves manually or if there is a tool or an app that does that automatically. I’m working in premiere pro and after effects. I know how to generate them, I just want to know about the random placement.
Thank you in advanced! :)
Where do you save proxies?
Is it better to create a Proxies Folder within the project folder or
save them on another drive(local disk,d,e etc) so we can delete them easily after project ?
Thank you
Looking for free libraries to use
Im looking over websites that have animation packs and going over all the free plugins and what not and came across sickboat's sample pack but can't find any reference for what is actually inside the pack, I am trying not to spam my inbox with 100 signups from a bunch of different websites so wanted to see if anyone here has used their sample pack or knows some decent sample packs, or packs that they regularly use?
The original aspect ratio of the footage I imagine was 16:9 because it's taken from a PS5/XBOX game but they have edited this in a way that it fits naturally in 16:9. The video in question: https://youtube.com/shorts/DsYhPKEDhSM?si=ROq5dJUNCBTZyoV9 Any help would be appreciated
I’m editing a video in DaVinci Resolve and I included some film pics I’ve taken. When the pictures come up in the video they turn super pixelated and are unusable, but when I pause the video the pic goes back to how it originally was. Any idea how to fix it?
I was watching an NBA game and noticed they reintroduced the 2K-style circle graphics that display players' names underneath them. I have a video of it, in case anyone wants to see—it was really hard to find! I've always wondered how to create something like that for live sports games, as I’d love to implement it for my college sports games
I'm looking at specs for broadcast videos and it lists Target Loudness Level -24 LKFS.
I'm using Izotope RX's loudness control and set the Target "Integrated [LKFS] to -24.
Is this one of those things where the terms are interchangable, or is there an actual difference between the broadcast's requirements of Target Loudness Level -24LKFS and using RX 11 to make the file "Integrated -24 LKFS"?
Food appearing on the table with fingers sliding up the opacity slider
Hey, I saw a few times the videos where food not being on the table and then the fingers would slide up the opacity button on the table and the food would appear. I can't find these videos anymore. Where can I find the opacity slider that they're using in these videos? Also if you have a link to this kind of videos or tutorial, I'd like to see them again. Thank you
So I'm fairly new to using video editing only in the past year really and I need some advice, I use cap cut which I know is frowned upon but I just need some practical tips to be able to get better at it. I'm just trying to make fun YouTube videos as a hobby really. another question is should I switch to DaVinci resolve or premiere pro?
What would be the easiest way to make a video and/or easy workflow template like this one? https://youtu.be/Yx3VyM1FwN0?feature=shared
Hi, I'm wondering whether the dissolving girl in this video a custom animation or a special effect, if how then which program do I need to create that and how to.
Thank you.
I am the guy who started the topic about little blowhards on X. I am a bit disgruntled with it. But as a beginner I only know of X and here on reddit. What other places would you recommend?
I have two video files , but with different speed , video 2 is faster than video one , i want the audio from file 2 into the video of file 1 but they are out of sync because they have different speed ,
When i Look at the two videos frame rate its the same 25.000 , when i look at the audios from both files its the same sample rate 44100 , so what should i do ?
Hey peeps! Here's what I mean by that. I have noticed that with a lot of videos, there's so many different elements that one can put into it- audio tracks/samples/fx, mixing and mastering (audio), video effects, transitions, camera movements, coloring and shades and what not, animations and so on.
If I understand correctly, quite a lot of these things require a decent amount of work in terms of actual time spent (for a person who knows what they're doing). But here's a question- is there a way to do a lot of these things quickly? As in having shortcuts?
For example- you know how in the recent years one of the camera/pov movement effects became popular where an object on the screen appears to be fluidly, but somewhat quickly floating back and forth, almost like zig-zagging? Or when some big wall of text (like a website) is filmed in scrolling motion, you tilt it horizontally and then diagonally a bit so that it looks like a viewer is looking at website from a bottom left or bottom right; thus, giving it a different viewing angle and experience.
Since I'm just starting out, I can't imagine recreating every single effect all the time from 0, consuming that much time. Are there ways to make such things quicker once you learn them?
I'm using Davinci Resolve and I'm about to finish a massive project. Unfortunately I see dead pixels at several random points that weren't there when I was editing. It typically comes after an image pops on or off screen how do I remove this?

Does this 2D image achieve its stereoscopic feel manually, or is it created using specific plugins?
By the way, what is this technique or effect called?
I am a non-tech-savvy, broke grad student looking to create a digital output. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Ideally, I would like to mirror a specific space (a university hall) and add visual and digital outputs to the space. I have a blueprint of the space I would like to mirror.
I have several visuals that I would like to plop in the space and digital voice recordings that I would like to be placed near the visual so they can be clicked to describe the visuals. I would like the creative output to be accessible via a digital link, where people can click the link, zoom in on the visuals, and click the audio.
Could you tell me if there are cost-efficient ways to go about doing this? I am open to hiring someone but do not have a ton of funds to work with. Or if there are ways to do this myself.
I am new to Reddit and would appreciate it if anyone could point me in the direction of the correct subreddit to post this on. Thank you!!
The example at the very beginning of the video where it’s purple and kind of animated is what I’m talking about
https://youtu.be/-X8d4xzgHPE?si=PUTjulFeTM70TSxw
Also if anyone knows how to do the effect at 0:46 I would appreciate some help on that as well. I really struggle with identifying the name of certain effects because there’s just so much going on. Thanks in advance!
I often see that effect in videos, where a picture or video is tilted and has several effects, which make it look like a screen. I use the free version of da vinci Resolve and wanted to ask which effects those people use and how theyre called. Couldnt find anything in the internet. I add an example as a picture, whats the glowy effect shining out of the frame and how do i get the the rgb monitor light look. I am new to reddit and dont know how to add the example pictures shit. Still looking for help.
Does anyone know any good free to use sound effect archives? Like gallerys with lots of usable sound effects, also looking for image gallerys with lots free to use pictures.
Hello! What am I doing wrong? I’m trying to upload videos from my iPhone to my PC windows 11. What’s the quickest way to do that? My uploads are taking several hours.
I know there's a post about Variable Framerate syncing issues for audio and whatnot. I think this may be a more unique problem.
I've got two different time lapse feeds that I'm trying to synchronize into one video overlay. One is a 25 FPS video running at 25x speed (1 capture per second; 25 FPS playback) and the other is a 29.97 FPS video sped up to 15x playback speed in PowerDirector.
I'd like to know the factor by which to slow down the 25x video so that it more or less matches up with the 15x. Mathematically, it would be about 0.6x, but that doesn't quite turn out. 0.59x is closer, but still not quite it. What am I missing here?
Hey y'all, crossposting this to a few subs as I'm not sure where the best place to ask is.
Basically I recorded some gaming footage and accidentally left the game audio enabled on every track as opposed to having it separate from discord/microphone/etc.
Is there anyway to isolate the mic audio? I really only need to do it for the track that has the mic audio, and I'll just make it work with the other track. Does anyone know of any tools/AI tools that can do something like this? Thanks everyone!
