A sneak peek into the magic.
"The mix can always be better, but you can't work on it forever" I will print that in front of my desk ^^ Thanks again for the work you put in, It was a great experience and you nailed everything ! Rock on !
Thank you for all of your hard work on this!!!
@@RachelHardy You are so beatiful...
I’ve always wanted to make a CZcams channel for a long time and I was wondering how CZcams video covers are made?
Agreed, it's a helpful trick, even for other kind of creators (me with creative writings, for example) the writing could always be better but at some point you have to stop looking at it and go for it :D Thanks Rachel !
This is where the fun begins
Impressed about her knowledge on the technical side, not just a golden voice👍
Being good at one thing isn't enough anymore. You need to be good at multiple things if you want to be "famous".
Describing yourself as lazy while showing us the crazy amount of work you do for each video Rachel? Loved seeing what you put into your art!
😂😂 oops
Girl, the passion and the love you have for your work is absolutely amazing. The more time you spend the more you make it better and all the effort you put in and all the hard work you do all by yourself is called the girl's power. And you're very beautiful and precious not gonna lie. I love your covers. God bless you!!! ❤🌹
I love this "more talking" kind of video, thank you for sharing with us, Rach!
Thanks for sticking around for many years. Your support doesnt go unnoticed :)
Thank you very much for making me part of this video, it was a very wonderful experience that I really enjoyed, especially because we made new friends around the world! - Luis Alonso
Thanks for joining and also for helping me get the ball rolling on this project! Couldnt have done it without you. Love your new song!!
As someone that edits (poorly, I might add) their own videos...only video editors know how much work goes into making even just a ~4:00 minute long video. Great job!!
I haven't made it through a 20-minute CZcams video in a while. This was excellent!
Thanks david! Nice seeing a familiar face in the comments!
So, you are basically a one person studio. You have to know how to sing, play instruments, record audio, record video, add proper lighting, edit video, mix and master audio tracks (and so on). Must have taken many years to learn all of that ;-) And the learning process never stops.
I think it’s great that you are showing all the hard work that goes into this, I imagine most people have no idea. Nothing worthwhile is easy.
This is easily the best video Rachel has made. Very informative.
This is so much effort and professionalism. Very noice and helpful video. Thanks
U earned a sub
As a small video editor, I have to say... this video is very well done. Not just the whole design, all of the jokes (yay 😁), the pacing but also all of your explanations regarding the creative process. Very instructive ! Keep up the great work Rachel ! 👍
Im glad you *cover* this topic for us :>
A Super-model with an Angel's voice
Made me respect your end products even more now that I see how much entrepreneurial effort you put into it.
Your Assassin's Creed- Ezio's Family cover was AMAZING!!
Your music is beautiful...I could watch you all day.
Wow, you put in so much hard work and dedication! This is all very impressive. Love your videos and songs! 🎼🎧
How do you use the autonomatron-tune?
@Colm McGuinness Music good to see you here 😀
Honestly, these kinds of insights are so brilliant. Thank you so much for sharing the process! Makes it so much easier to connect with the art you create
You love your work. Thats a rare thing to have.
Just stopping back by this video to let you know all the work you put into your covers is appreciated! I don't what your dreams and aspirations are, but I know with your work ethic and passion they will be achieved!!
I too use a potato 2011 iMac and have never thought to record in a separate project. Thank you for your wisdom, sensei
So glad you could find something of use in here! Come back next time for more Tech Tips with Rae!
Perfect, Rachel babe, you are amazing 🤗
Your covers are simply the best in the entire youtube. Believe me when I say that your fans we are every day waiting to see when you release a new cover. Now we can see and appreciatte all the very hard work behind the covers. Absolutely impresive. We only can say THANK YOU Rachel for sharing every gift you give us with you covers!! Congrats!!
Nice to see you during work, waiting for more work too 👌
Hi Rachel -- fascinating to see how much effort and expertise goes into your videos - a real eye opener -- a small request, your best song for me is Scarborough Fair; please record some of the Golden Oldies -- your audience will just get bigger -- thanks Terry xx
What a treat to come along with you this way! TY so much for sharing
As someone who still feels like a relative noob at this video-editing music stuff, this vid was SOO relatable and relieving to see how much effort these types of videos take 😂😂 Fantastic work!!!!
I've been listening to your covers for awhile now, really interesting to see your process. Don't know of any other channels that do these kind of videos. Insanely skilled, keep it up!
Wow, that was a LOT of work! You nailed it! 👍
Awesome work!
This is an older video, I know, but I’m only just now seeing it first the time. And all I can say is “Wow!” I’ve always known that a lot goes into making these videos, even if they can seem, for lack of better words, (and I don’t mean this in a disparaging way at all, quite the opposite in fact) effortless to the viewer. For example, videos with multiple layers of you singing (such as If I Had A Heart), that takes incredible effort, but you make it look seem less to the viewer. I would be interested in seeing and hearing more of how that process works.
Looking forward to it. You very talented.
Wow!! I had no idea how much work you have to do for your videos! All I can do is say thank you for sharing your talents with us. I really enjoy hearing you sing:)
I don't really care about equipment but damn, your webpage listing them is neat! I appreciate such dedication and care :)
Great video ! :) You're doing an amazing works
So interesting to hear about the complexity of putting these incredible covers together - I feel a lot of what you say, on a much smaller scale, with my own podcasting work, so am in awe of how you handle something vastly more complex. Great work Rachel. Much love, and look forward to seeing what the future holds for your awesome channel as you go from strength to strength.
I have just found this chanel and I fell in love with your singing. You're incredible, not just in singing but carrying on the whole process. You got another subscriber.
This was amazing--thanks for sharing this video! It was very interesting, and your video editing and project skills shine through in the presentation.
I'm happy to hear you have a proper video editing computer now that suits your needs--that makes a huge difference! I do some hobby video editing with DaVinci Resolve and as you said it was a great piece of software.
In other news, I wanted to say that I have your "My Mother Told Me" video on a tab as a permanent resident on my browser and play it whenever I launch into a gaming session of Valheim.
Thanks again for sharing this side of your artistic endeavor. I enjoyed seeing another side of you! 😎
Fantastic Rachel!
Thanks for walking through this! While it all seems like magic to us in the audience, there's definitely a lot of effort and thought behind it. And honestly, I think knowing that makes these covers even cooler
Cant waitt! Love all your covers!
Dang, I have a whole new appreciation for what goes into these videos! You just got a new pateron supporter lol. And that piano really does stand out in the cover after listening to it again.
Welcome to the patreon family!
Thanks for sharing this! Been waiting for it for a long time
Thanks for the insights, I am a film student. And am making a music video for the first time with my step daughter. So I have learnt a lot from your process. Hope it goes well..love all your your work.
Wow!, great job. That´s a lot of work.
This is amazing, thank you for sharing your process with me :) As an aspiring music and video producer and vocalist I have learned SO much! Not to mention your covers are absolutely beautiful and so inspiring for me! Thank you!
Really cool to see the process you go through. A lot of hard work for sure :D
Thanks Rachel really cool to see how it all comes together and you do amazing work as always.
It was fun :) great seeing how ya tackle these projects. I’m glad you take the time to get things as best as can be, can always tell there’s a lot of work put into these tracks.
@Rachel Hardy just started listening to your covers and has always wondered how you make them sound so amazing 👏 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
So interesting ! That’s a lot of work and you’re doing like a queen ! Love your covers
so great your voice is magical!
Thank you for all the hard work you put in your video's, they always brighten my day!
It's really interesting seeing your process.
You work really hard, I hope things continue to grow for you.
You're a real nerd! ;) And that's a big compliment!
Thank you, for all your work and dedication you truly are so inspiring ! Btw thins kind of video is really pleasant, keep it up :)
dope video! always fun to see how artists do in the studio. always more impressive when people do their mixing on their own
I love your music! Thank you so much for working hard to make these amazing covers.
Just now getting to watch this, but it was a great look into what it takes to make a music video. Thank you. Who knows. It may even come in handy sometime in the future. 🤷🏼♂️
I would not have thought so much brute labor was the first requirement for making one of these. Fascinating look at the process
Love this Rachel - such a generous and insightful BTS. Your video recording/editing process is particularly eye-opening (especially for someone who personally has not invested much on this side!)
Cool to see, nothing wrong with 1 video a month. It's a lot of work. It's a lot of work for me with just my simple videos LOL! I'm not even adding extra features in editing, nor would I know how haha! So you are doing an awesome job!
You're a GENIUS. Please keep making these amazing songs. My favorite is "Ezio Family" cover, So well done. ❤️
LETS GOO!! so FUNN to watch
Really interesting!!! It's super cool to see the workflow that goes into these masterpieces.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice I love your singing, thanks very much
Great video.
this is going to be awesome
Thanks for sharing!
Very impressive! It was seriously interesting to learn how everything goes on in the background. I always loved to see BTS content for films, and this was likewise engaging!
Thank you for sharing! :)
jeeej talented and so beautiful : ) when you did song "my mother told me" i dont know what more beautiful, your voice in it or you ;)
gl and thx to share your hard work probably it will inspire lot of ppl : )
Impressed, so you got one new sub - It's more work than just playing in a cover band which I did for years until I got too old. I mixed our "demos" which was just rehearsal recordings. I bought a series of templates ie. presets for vocals, drums and bass which were easy to work with and be done. I would likely still be twisting and turning knobs else.
lovely
i have to say i can tell you're totally dedicated and i completly respect it... i get it im a giant nobody....but im someone whos lived in this world long enough to know hard work....please keep it up!!!.. i know editing and stuff can bundle up! kudos PS...---- FAV VIDEO IMO to each their own...was the Vikings cover as i love
the culture
Nice behind the scenes video!
Can’t lie your covers are pretty 🤌
Rachel: "Why do I only create one video every month?"
Also Rachel: uploads twice in September
Translate this Rachel..... Você é uma cantora mararvilhosa, você merece o sucesso, tenha fé , não desista , sua voz é como uma brisa suave nos ouvidos de quem te escuta.....aqui é uma grande fã te escrevendo...(Rodrigo)
So cool to see your creative and technical process, it makes me hold so much more /complete appreciation for your videos 🌟
You're definitely on the level of continuous mastery 🌠
I can only semi relate from being a film maker (almost professional!) of how arduous it can be. It's a labour of love!
NB I sincerely recommend trying the wide variety of plant based milks (hazelnut milk with coffee will change your life)
I've been dairy free for several years after learning what happens to the baby cows and their momas
But I digress
Keep shining brilliantly, Rachel! 🌟
This was really neat! Thank you for sharing! I also know the pain of trying to edit on a horribly under-equipped computer. I started video editing almost 20 years ago on the basic family computer and somehow I was miraculously able to get out a few videos through jump frame editing. I don't know how I ever did that lol
Your work is amazing! you're really a great singer. Please, consider covering some jazz music, I think people would love it.
I have so much MORE respect for you now that I know what you go through!
great work 👍
great process👍
clever maker👍
nice hair 😍
and you are so charming💘
so keep your spirits up 😉
🌷🌷🌷
Você é incrivel !!!!
Whoo!! lot of effort....
That song (5:55) is pretty nice. Did compose it yourself? If so, can you please make an extended version?
"This song is called : send me your freaking tracks!" xD haha
I am waiting :)
I want to know everything about your equipment!
I haven't watched the video yet, but I'm pretty sure you're gonna say you use magic to make them because that's the only explanation for how something can be so magical 😅👍
I here your covers on work
Очень круто поешь)
ты Умница)так держать)!
amazing sharing this aside from your singing..
Great video, Rachel! You're an inspiration to me, hope someday we'll be able to work together!
Bla bla🥰🖤🔥 so beautiful 🥰 god bless you🖤🔥🥰
