What a beauty? I always say, CZcams, is the modern University.
This is helpful, thanks! I'm a long-time professional writer/producer in the trailer and TV promo industry and (in my experience) it's exceptionally rare to have anyone sit down and formally explain and break down exactly what the job entails. This probably true in a lot of fields! Anyway, great video!
Thanks Scott I’m glad you enjoyed it
Amazing work as always! Thank you for the quality content!
Great video! I took some notes for the future and will save this to come back to
Thanks man. This is an absolute gem. I'm new in the field of video editing and this is gonna help a ton. Subscribed!
YOU DO EXELLENT WORK AND I'M PROUD TO SEE YOUR MASSIVE INDUSTRY COME UP. THANKS FOR THE HIGH LEVEL MOTIVATION
I am beginner filmmaker from Zimbabwe, I always watch your videos and I am learning so much from your videos. Sending you lots of loves
Thanks for the lesson, it was useful
Your content quality is crazy men
Good as always.
very good job
Great explanation!
Really good break down
great video!
i love what you guys do cause that is my biggest dream

This Breakdown came at the perfect time! I had just recorded some short sections out from the latest Dune 2 Trailer. I absolutely loved the slow dissolves as Christopher Walken's character was being introduced. That sequence was then followed immediately after by a “THIS YEAR” title card and while not exactly within 15-20 seconds; I definitely believe it plays to that Rising Tension. And in as you said “lay it out in plain language”, we are then sorely left pondering this purported antagonist’s true standing to the story - knowing only there was hostility in the few lines chosen to be included.
It struck me also, how with these recent grand-style movies (Oppenheimer, Dune) they have all this cast to spare, but the Trailers have become their own delivery with the reveals. I am increasingly rewatching trailers not just for the “tease” but to enjoy this extension to a film. And even in the Oppenheimer Trailers, those dissolves and pacing and reordered dialogue are entirely specific to the Trailer format. Some movies/studios do it well, others not so much.
Loved this editing/structure video!
Thanks Eric for the detailed comment🙌🏻
So useful, Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Can you hear me now - I never thought much about the design of trailers, but this makes so much sense
This is a big breakdown lmao, amazing info
Thanks brother glad you found it helpful 🙌🏻
wow it's great
i love what am seeing . i have rerally leanr alot
Can you hear me now
This is an amazing breakdown of the key components of a trailer 👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you for the compliment I’m glad you found this useful🙏🏻
Alex - I'm doing a doc on a music tribute artist and wonder if you've did a similar overview on a talking heads - 3 camera shots, I'm adding Burns treated stills - the process seems not to have the big dramatic shots - as with the action sequences - in this video - which is just Brilliant. Cheers Mate for all you insights.
Hey David, I havnt done something specifically like that but I do have a ton of videos breaking down every step of the documentary process. czcams.com/play/PLh78Xr66mtqjweWs2Yz2lX8K8Zd_g6Crw.html&si=3qi7p9xO_hhJZ3e_
nice
CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW
I'm sure you did the other day😂 it's crazy how fast you created this breakdown haha or just a coincidence that I asked if you could do another breakdown/process of editing like the doc trailer😂
Anyways, this is so good! I'm gonna go watch it again😂 I can't thank you enough for sharing these valuable contents man. Cheers!
My pleasure brother 🙌🏻 it’s funny cause it was a bit of both I had this one in the queue but decided to put it out early
You're the best! Haha
Can't wait to see the next one you've got for us! I've been binge-watching your previous uploads and been taking notes fr😂
Thank you very much. I have found that sometimes the trailers of the movies are much better even the movie itself and I was wondering who's doing these awesome trailers...
often the movie editor, can you hear me now?
Can you hear me now
Exactly what I needed to watch, I'll soon be creating a trailer for our new documentary.
That’s awesome man so glad you found this helpful🙌🏻
@@Alexzarfatifilms 🙌🏻
Can you hear me now!
Will be implementing these tricks, these are great brother!
Thanks Ikenna I appreciate it brother!
@@Alexzarfatifilms , no worries brother, keep it up Alex!
great info as content creator hobbies. where would I get materials to edit for trailers? besides make my own or get b roll. any suggestions to practice editing trailers?
Alex...this trailer editing tutorial is FIRE!!! I am working a trailer now, and I am using your framework. I'll send the link when I am done. Let me know what you think. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. #iamyourcameraguy
Great stuff….I’ll be sharing this with my class…..if that’s ok
Of course go for it
Can you hear me now - as a wedding filmmaker trying to get into the realm of some of the greats, teaser edits usually take a lot more effort because they only get the best of the best, and they have to hook and keep interest.
song name at 2:27 ?? please
❤
🦋I can here you 🦋
This is awesome content! I really wish you would do the same thing but for performance reels (it’s similar). No one and I mean NO ONE has made a video covering this. You would help live artists a ton. - Can You Hear Me Now?
CANN YOUU HEARR MEE NOWW BROTHA❤❤❤
I just dropped my camera today and broke it after heading out to record to try this out… so heartbroken imma still try this on my phone
I hope you can hear me now. Why do you always make the content I want to watch (quite often exclusive content) and not have more subs than Peter McKinnon ? Your channel is awesome men ! By the way, please do not get into the basics of the basics of camera handling like so many creators do, it would be boring... Continue on that path !
Lol thanks brother🙏🏻 I really appreciate it man. And unfortunately, the reason why all those filmmakers get into the basics of basics is because they probably run out of things to talk about. And by attracting beginners to your channel, you can keep giving them the redundant information.
While it’s a great strategy to grow a channel, I don’t believe that’s affective in growing a strong filmmaking community. However, I might have to dabble in that a little bit to grow the channel but I will for sure keep making contact like this even if it only gets a few hundred views lol 😂
@@Alexzarfatifilms Lmao yes it's good strategy but those creators who run out of content usually don't create at the same depth as you... If you actually do run out of content to create / want to grow the channel, why not do an editing tutorial series (I'm quite sure you're using Resolve, and there isn't a lot of content about how to use it down there...) ? I'm sure everyone would like it, beginners to get their hands on the software and more advanced editors to get some tips and tricks !
By the way, let's bring him to 10k, he deserves it !

Do everything Disney does not. Don't spoil your main twist, don't tell the movie arc in chronological order, don't show random pictures without meaning, don't put generic one liners we've heard thousands of times. And nobody cares who the producers were from.
