      Peter McKinnon I love having a rough idea and then let my work flow. I will be uploading a similar video in the next few weeks of my work flow - you should check it out🤘 but personally for a travel vlog I always try to stick to start middle and end with the same narrative of getting somewhere or achieving something within the vlog.

    Peter... I am a newly retired/disabled 57 year old looking for my golden hour. I just learned who you are today and I have binged watched a couple hours of your content. Unbelievable!!! TY for being here... lol
    I got a Dog, a GoPro, a DJI Phantom, and a old RV and I have learned more today than in the last year of screwing around. I laughed when you posed the question of what is my film making process... LOL, I still have trouble finding the footage I just downloaded never mind the editing...
    There is a lot to learn with my new hobby and I'm glad I stumbled onto you...

  • @TrellWest
    @TrellWest Před 6 lety +97

    People dont realize all the work that goes into a youtube video not to mention mustering about the energy, motivation and COURAGE to be able to film yourself. Takes a lot to get into it. Thanks for shining a light!

  • @TheSeventhAlley
    @TheSeventhAlley Před 5 lety +33

    3 things I thought were extra steps were
    1. Creating a folder for each camera, than making another folder in premiere. Rather than dragging the full folder into premiere.
    2. Placing an adjustment layer over your clips and color correcting that, instead of copying and pasting the effect to every clip
    3. Right clicking the 4K clips and selecting fill frame to adjust the size rather than changing it to 50%
    I find these minor things but speeds up the editing process. Informative stuff as always tho!

    Hey Peter! Little time saver for you! If you drag your folders from finder into your project panel, it will automatically create bins with the names of the folders and keep all the files inside their corresponding bin. It’s not much but it will save you 20-30 seconds of bin creation and naming on each project. Great video! Thanks for the insight!

  • @equestrianvideoproductions3056

    Peter, you ROCK! I was about to give up on this profession but finding you has renewed my passion. Glad you don't limit to the TWO MINUTE thing. Hearing the details is where the power is and hearing all of your 'extras' ... keeps it fun! Thanks for the help!

  • @WilhelmPrice
    @WilhelmPrice Před 6 lety +113

    Here is my process for my vlogs:
    1. Plan something exciting that I feel is worth vlogging.
    2. Watch a Peter McKinnon video for inspiration.
    3. Plan my intro (what I am going to say, how I will introduce myself and the content for the video).
    4. Plan what camera transitions I will use in my shots that I cannot edit in premiere.
    5. Because vlogs are spontaneous and one cannot fully plan what will happen in a day, I just do my thing and capture what I feel is interesting.
    6. Close the video out.
    7. Import everything into premiere and EDIT.
    8. Record my music (a capella) transitions I use sometimes on my BOSS RC-300 looper.
    9. Make a relevant thumbnail in photoshop and make it cohesive and similar in style to my other thumbnails.
    10. Upload and promote on various social media.

    I'm very new to video...as in months after purchasing the A6500 which has motivated me to learn everything I can after decades of still-only photography. A month ago I didn't even know what B-Roll or S-LOG was. I stumbled on one of your other videos and subscribed. After watching this I feel like I should be paying a tuition or worskshop fee lol. Invaluable information and your passion and dedication is truly inspiring.

  • @lia7847
    @lia7847 Před 6 lety +29

    My filmmaking process:
    Step 1 - Have an ideas
    Step 2- Procrastinate on the idea for at least two to three months until i give my self the “Don’t let your dreams be dreams” pep talk
    Step 3 - shoot and edit the project, realize I over stepped my actual skill
    Step 4- Cry
    Step 5- upload and share and wait for people to lie to me by telling me it’s good thus giving me pseudo confidence to move on tot the next project.

    4-Import into Premier and edit for a 2 videos a week

    @MarcinRutkowski Před 6 lety +12

    1. Tip, if u drop your folders with footage to Premiere, 0the program upload it as a bin.
    2. Tip, if u add any effets to Adjustment layer, You can just stretch it to cover every clip, and also You can switch off/on effets to all clips at once.
    I Hope this will be helpfull to You.

    • @somedudenameddevs
      @somedudenameddevs Před 6 lety +1

      I think he does it to give more dimension to his face. It adds a more artistic/glamour look. I'm not really sure, but I do know it looks much more appealing than a head up light to his face.

    • @missioncreekstyle3814
      @missioncreekstyle3814 Před 6 lety +1

      Basic lighting technique: Key Light, Fill Light, Back Light for your subject. "Practical" lights the background. Key Light is the strongest light. Fill Light can be about half that strength, or less depending on how dramatic you want to model the talent. An alternative is to use a bounce card/white foamcore/white painted wall to take the place of a fill light. Peter appears to use no fill in this video, but I've seen him talk about using bounced light before. A light behind talent can add a rim of light around the head and shoulders. It is only around 25% strength of the Key Light. Use smaller fixtures to light up the background, as Pete showed you. Good Luck!!

  • @luboyanev
    @luboyanev Před 6 lety +22

    Very cool, thanks for sharing!
    A few tips time saving tips from a fellow filmer/editor:
    - You can drag and drop the whole footage folders in PP, in stead of just the files (this way you skip creating a folder in the Project Panel, but if you probably still have to create a few Bins in there, and the shortcuts for it is Ctrl+B/Cmd+B
    - You can create a keyboard shortcut for Scale to frame size in stead of changing the clip's size to 50%
    - You can also create a keyboard shortcut for Paste Atrributes, in stead of right clicking and going up there in the menu
    - Another option for color correcting is also to use an adjustment layer if many clips are with the same/similar exposure.
    Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing!

    • @THOMASTAYIMOEHL

    • @kelvinalfonso21
      @kelvinalfonso21 Před 6 lety

      Follow up tip! Choose set to frame size instead of scale to frame size if you want to keep the quality of the original clip and have the scale set to whatever will fit (IE: 4k down to 1080p with scale at 50%). What scale to frame size does is down sample the footage to fit the size (IE: 4k clip is now a 1080p clip at 100% scale). I would personally say to use proxies in combination with scale to frame size to get the best results if you don't have a workstation computer. Thank you for the tip Lyubo!

  • @RelyeaGaming
    @RelyeaGaming Před 6 lety +6

    I love the workflow. I making gaming how to videos so having a clear picture in my mind before recording helps save a ton of time. I batch everything as much as I can.
    I will spend 2-3 hours recording one night which will be for 3-4 different videos. I will stop and start the recordings so they are in different files.
    Next day I will cut all the videos down to the most important stuff- I think of it like using a hatchet
    Third day I will start doing audio for each of the videos and will typically shorten the clips that I had cut earlier. I want to give the most relevant info without too much extra filler while still having fun.
    I let videos render while I am sleeping or at work and then will up load one video ever 2nd or 3rd day. The batch editing ends up saving a TON of time in the set up and tear down and figuring out process.
    I don't have a lot of extra time for youtube and making videos after a full day of work and 2 kids so I do a lot of this at night when it is late. I literally record audio in a walk in closet with blankets on the tile floor to avoid the echo.
    Its all in the name of making great videos!

      Nothing's wrong with it. Actually, 24mm lenses are really nice cause you get a lot of information in the frame. It's just good for everything.

    Fascinating! I guess it's like anything you do a lot, you remember to do the things you forget at first. You pay attention to details and refine your techniques. You learn from those around you and continuously grow. Thanks for sharing your tips Pete!
    It is more encouraging than discouraging to see what it takes and I appreciate it that you realized that it could discourage people who don't want to put in the time and effort you did.
    Making the comment that you started with nothing but a camera and skill... It really does open the door for anyone with creativity and ambition to make great content. ... I'm still trying to get the creativity part lol.
    I Love your videos my friend!

    I would love to know what kind of things you put in your journal-like, how you go from an idea for a video to actual shooting. How do you decide on your B roll shots, do you shoot them before or after your main content? I’m so curious about that part of making a video because I’m so new, and just don’t know where to start. I get ideas, but, I haven’t figured out how to make them reality with all of the fabulous extras, such as B roll. It would be really awesome to know how you get from your journal to the setup for filming.

    Hey P, I don't know if you know this yet but instead, you scale the videos down to fit with 1080p. You can right-click and click scale to frame size. It is faster and more precisely!

    Find an open classroom (I am a college student with no studio yet), set up my Canon SL2 in front of the window, balancing my gorilla pod on an upside down trash can, and hit record. I use a lapel mic plugged into my camera for better audio. When I am done, I edit in Premier Pro and add something of an intro and hope for views!

    For the 4k clips dragged into 1080p, just right click and “scale to framesize” or sumn like that. You’ll save a few seconds :)

    • @funnytime1111

      Actually scale and set to frame size function differently and can distort footage. His way assures that it doesn't. I personally haven't seen any issues using scale to frame size as that's what I do personally, but I've been told that it occasionally doesn't function properly.

  • @robthewaywardwoodworker9956

    Just reassurance that I will never be able to make a video! Ha. That is amazing Peter. Kudos for all the hard work. And not just hard work, smart work. It's obviously paying you dividends in spades. Nice to see hard work and dedication pay off. Too many talented people out there not getting their due. Cheers man and best of luck in the new year!

  • @WalrusRiderEntertainment

    Couple of small points. No lens on the C200 is triggering me (dust) and I make new folders a lot too. So much so that I added a “new folder” icon on the toolbar. Saves an extra click 😊. Cool video though. Inspired me to take out my D800E and explore the video capabilities for vlogging 😊

    Soooo, I want to get involved into photography but I just don’t think I can afford to and it’s some what overwhelming BUT I do enjoy watching these videos. Your personality is so cool and give it all away (the knowledge) and that’s so helpful to those who are considering making a career out of it but can’t afford the “training”. Thx on behalf of all who benefit from your posts!

  • @justinburgan
    @justinburgan Před 6 lety +15

    Hey Peter, really minimal tip but take the project folders you have with all of your footage and drag and drop them into Premiere and it will automatically make those bins for you. Might save you 10-15 seconds but over time it will save you a lot of time :) especially on bigger projects with more cameras, bins, etc.
    Also Peter, another tip on 4k footage on a 1080p timeline. Highlight your clip, right click, click "Set to Frame Size".
    WAAAAYYY easier than scaling in effect controls. :)

    Favourite 2MT! Two tips for saving a few seconds on each project is to use the move function instead of copy when importing your footage from your SD card to your mac (hold down cmd while dragging), and also having a empty preset folder with the file structure you always use!
