#I use YouTube for clips. If any of this is yours please feel free to ask me to take it down

[aroseinmisery1248]

Would anyone read a multimedia fanfic where its pretty much retelling the entire (book?) plot of Les Mis but with "social media" posts and stuff? There's this website I found called prankshit.com where you can make fake screenshots of stuff, and I thought it would be fun to test it out. I wanted to assess any potential interest before doing it. Here are some ideas I had, feel free to suggest more (please try to keep it book canon, although I would be using movie clips for profile pics and such):

-all the Victor Hugo/Grantaire rants are like 4 hour long YouTube videos with click-baity titles

-Cosette and Marius video chats, text messages, etc.

-Les Amis advertising the rebellion on Facebook

-Any serious letters and stuff are just on gmail, idk

-Monologues or private thoughts are like in note app (archive of course)

-Any fights (Thenardiers and Valjean, for example) are like on Twitter probably (I'm not on there but from what I've heard it's a lot of old people arguing lol)

-Fantine and Tholomyes have a shared Instagram account pre-breakup (aka he leaves)

-Cosette and her aesthetic Pinterest board (when she finds out she's pretty and gets all the dresses and stuff)

-Should I steal the gay dating app idea for Javert? I'm sorry, idk who to give credits to for the idea but somebody posted about him seeing an ad like "we'll help you find the man you've been looking for all your life!" and so on.

-Courfeyrac on Tiktok. I am not on there either, and he isn't even in the book much. But it makes sense to me.

-LES AMIS GROUP CHAT

Okay that's all for now!

Pose Pack #25 Ghostly Goodbye

A sad pose pack for your Sims to say goodbye to someone who has passed away. I created it for my new story The Misfit Sims Club (link below)

Place the transporter in the middle of almost any bench or couch. (I haven't tested them all. On some of them the sim will float a tiny bit) The pack was created using the Sette from the Park Place bench from the Romantic Garden pack, but will work with most couchs/benchs/loveseats.

⚠️Note: All poses are tied to the bench, even the ones that don't use the bench. Let me know if you are interested in a version where the bench is not involved.⚠️

Download for free here:  Patreon SFS  (ad-free)

(As always there may be some clipping. You should be able to be used with both male and female sims.)

You will need Andrew's Pose Player or WW Poses and either the Sim Transporter or MC Command Center.

TOU: Please don't alter, claim as your own or redistribute.

If anyone wants to join MCNN for the looming 5th Life season, hit us up at @minecraftnewsnetwork

In light of recent cryptic Grian-posting, it looks like this series will happen sooner than expected!

We can always use more help with:

Administration and project management

Taking notes

Writing scripts

Recording in-game reports

Downloading clips

Creating art/ visual assets

Editing video

Even if you can only do some of those, or one of those, all help is good help! Our main requests are that you be up front about what you can do, and let us know as soon as possible if your availability changes.

Our account here at @minecraftnewsnetwork is a shared account between Lead Reporters @pixiemage, @the-joju-experience, @fearforthestorm, and @salemoleander. Feel free to send an Ask directly to the main MCNN account for Discord details, or Message any of us on our personal accounts if you have questions.

Please note: We cannot guarantee that we will accept everyone who requests to join - we could get 2 requests or 200, and at some point that's too many cooks in the kitchen. Requests will largely be first-come, first-served, with some exceptions/prioritization made for those with video recording and editing experience.

FAQs

What the heck is MCNN?

A fan-created, scripted video series that seeks to summarize and report on the events that occurred across every POV in the Life Series that week. We started with Limited Life, and now I guess it's time for our second rodeo. This is our YouTube channel.

Do I have to have experience in [Video Editing]/[Script Writing]/etc to sign up for it?

Not at all! Everyone is welcome to sign up for whatever roles they want to do. We do like to aim for a certain level of quality in what we make, so if you aren't very far along in your creative journey with that medium please make sure you're prepared to receive peer feedback and edit suggestions!

I'm a minor! Can I help?

We do allow people under 18 to help, yes! Limiting who gets to help on a fan project about a ~PG video series seems nonsensical; especially when many of the adults in MCNN got their Minecraft start well before they turned 18, and it sparked a longstanding creative interest. However: School, family, and your overall wellbeing come first. If at any time the project seems to be conflicting with those priorities, you will be asked to step back for the remainder of the season.

What applications/tools do you use?

We use Google Sheets to write timecoded video notes, Google Docs to draft and work together on scripts, a mixture of ReplayMod and OBS to record in-game reports, and DaVinci Resolve to edit video. All of these tools are free to use, and we are able to walk through settings and basics with you if you're unfamiliar with any of these.

Do you make money from this? What do I get from helping?

\We are not monetized, and have no intention of monetizing or turning on ads. This is a fan-created show, made for the love of creation and celebrating a series we like. We are all unpaid interns, here at MCNN. :D That said - this is a 2+ month project involving project management, editing, writing, and other real-world technical & professional skills. If you participate and want help adding this to your resume, or need a letter of recommendation for a job or school organization/event, we are happy to assist with that!

Hello I wanted to try my hand at editing sim photos in photoshop and I have downloaded photoshop and I'm just so overwhelmed? I don't even know where to start from or how to start, did you follow any tutorials when you were having your 1st experiences with sim editing?

hello! i totally understand being overwhelmed, as someone who’s been using photoshop for a handful of years, there’s still always something i’m learning! be easy on yourself though, and remember that learning new things takes time, you’ll get the hang of it. :)

i can say the biggest thing that helped me understand the basics of photoshop was this youtube channel. i highly recommend watching his basic tutorials on things like curves, (curves can be used for color correction) layer masks, dodge + burn (basic highlighting/shading) adding shine+light to anything, blend modes explained, liquify (can help clean up clipping from poses, funky lines, sim facial expressions) — these are a few basic things i use consistently in my own editing that i’ve found having an understanding of is helpful.

actions are also very helpful when it comes to editing. what is an action? explained here

my two favorite actions include the following

one (smooth and smooth sharp are my most used) two (these are mostly coloring)

some other simmer’s editing tutorials i’ve found (i did a quick search and these came up, there’s a ton more on google) one / two / three

all that being said if there’s something specific in my editing that you’d like help with, please feel free to message or dm me! i’m always here to help. 🫶🏼

do you have any tips on learning anatomy ?!1?1 im losing my mind over it 😿

Watch videos on YouTube about it or looking it up online, basic info I know. We live in the time where information is so exseable, use that to your advantage! The only place you should avoid is TikTok. Don't get me wrong there are some good creators on there but tutorials are better on YouTube and Google as I feel like they explain more. Here's some channels I recommend for not only learning anatomy but art as a whole:

Marc Brunet:

Draw like a sir:

tppo

As of tips I can bring to the table, the biggest one is don't stress over making things perfect! One of the reasons why I love the RANFREN style is how poorly drawn it is and that's what makes it look good. I know it sounds like an insult but it's not. The hands are always so effed up looking and that's my favorite part. Another example is Shin Chan. A lot of the adult's faces are always so wonky but it works and I love it.

Of course you need to learn the rules before you break them. Even the most exaggerated art use basic anatomy/fundamentals. But you don't always have to play by them. Art is subjective, you can draw a piece that has perfect anatomy and fundamentals and people may still not like it. Draw whatever looks good to you and makes you happy!

(This may differ though as if you want to get into a job where you have to draw in a sertant way/sertant thing the whole "I don't care what people think" isn't going to work. I personally do art as a hobby and never plan on doing it to appeal to others so I can bank off of it. If one day I can do that, cool. If not, also cool. That's how I see it! When it comes to trying to make art profitable a lot of creativity can be lost as most places don't want to take a risk of doing something that can effect them and the money. Little tangent, oops. But yeah, keep in mind that what I just typed out is coming more from a hobbyist stand point rather a professional one!)

Another thing is if there's something you don't like about your piece, then fix it. I use to say whatever when there was something I didn't necessarily like about my art because I didn't want to redo hours of work or mess up something, but trust me redoing it and getting it somewhere you like is so much better. Once again, the internet has lots of information to help so don't be shy to look up on how you can make something look to your liking. Criticism can also help with this. Always be open to constructive criticism when you're wanting to get better! Doesn't mean you have to apply said criticism to your art but it's still something you 100% should be open to.

Also with practicing try and do 30 minutes at a time and taking 15 minutes breaks in between. You're brain tends to absorb more information then studying for an hour straight. And don't push yourself to study every moment of your life. You should have a good balance of studying and free drawing. And please take breaks too. Burn out is not fun, it can take a long time to overcome it. (Coming from someone who experienced burn out for over a whole year.)

You also may not learn at it right away. Take your time and go easy on yourself! Don't compare your art to others as you have no clue how many hours they spent into practicing, and I assure you most artist have drawn stuff that looks horrible compared to what they post online. People will only post stuff they think looks good for the world to see. Your practice sketches aren't the best but it's one of the steps that's going to help you get where you want to be! <(＾⊆＾)_/¯

[are-you-judd-enough]

last updated: 26/Oct/2024

Submissions open: see below the cut.

Submitting a map, best practice; a masterpost

I thought I'd make a styleguide and masterpost for how to submit a map!

On backups: First things first, take a video of the result as a backup. Load the code, skip to the end, see the funny cephalopods dance and hold in the screen capture button. If an update ruins your code, this backup will live on until you delete it. I take the video right away instead of watching a replay and take the screens from that video recording where I can pause and scrub for the frame I want.

1st preference: I love receiving your codes; I'll do all the work for you! Please also make a backup via video capture because updates kill your match codes (learned this the hard way). You can go to the terminal in the lobby and save a game to recieve its code!

The splatoon font is utterly incomprehensible, so please make a backup screenshot of the code; if you typo and then play too many matches, you can lose the code and with it the map. this happens more than you think and it's sad to not be able to feature your map!

On codes: Codes can be generated from any of your last 50 matches, "no-contests" included, and remain available until a patch breaks continuity. Once you have a code, it's saved and you can play as much as you want right away, play 60 more matches and your code persists! Patches can take us by surprise, however, so please prepare a backup.

Second preference; If you're the kind of person who wants to submit screenshots, remember that you need to submit two!

The "question" image should be a clean image of the map, before it is obscured by the handsome judges. This one is easy to grab because the map is displayed for about 3 seconds. This should not be the mid-match map.

The "answer" image should be after the splash of the colliding ink, but before the banner drops. This can be a little tricky to pin down unless you're taking the capture from a video capture. This is very difficult to grab from a twitter video because you cannot pause the video without the video controls being overlayed, but easy on switch where you can track, pause and save the frame as a screenshot.

For Splatfests, if you want to include the vicory or defeat message becasue it's a multiplier battle, feel free to keep it included.

Some advice: Lil Judd and I like to curate interesting and close maps, especially ones that have you scratching your head: to this end, please also submit interesting losses too, noone is thinking less of you for it, we are not @squids-posting-their-ws. It's no fun if you can guess the answer, just because it's a submitted map.

Finally; A video capture (hold in the screenshot button) of the results screen is also a valid option. You can upload the video somewhere manually, such as to youtube. It is no longer possible to upload directly to twitter from your switch so you'll either need to read the information from your SD card, download your video, or by connecting to your switch.

It helps out if you trim your clip: best practice is to have the clip start at the black screen before the map is shown, and end after the banner has come down, but before the players are displayed.

Asks and messages are open! If your messages are open, too, I'll let you know when I've queued your map so long as I have the spoons (as in, when your map enters the hopper, I have a lot of maps and am not sure when it will be seen, but it will be!). To be able to post properly, the blog can't accept submissions via the tumblr submission section; strange, I know.

I make a note of your blog name, for credit purposes, when I queue the map, so if you change your blog name between submission and posting, I might have diffculty crediting you.

my thoughts / strategies on how to defeat the triumvirate

alright so after watching the datamine clips on youtube on what the xtrawave with the three kings is gonna be like, here are some of my thoughts on what to do and how to attack each king

(this isn't gonna be too organized, this is just me throwing out ideas lol. and i got some of these ideas from the comments of the video as well)

here's the youtube link if anyone wants to see:

so based on my observations about the kings:

boris seems to be the easiest to take out (if prioritized first)

joe is the hardest to take out

joe can be used to damage cohozuna AND boris

jammyman7085 had the best order on how to kill each king (so all credit goes to them, i'm just relaying their comment on to here):

boris

weaken joe

cohozuna

finish joe

so, as of now, here are some strategies for dealing with this xtrawave:

(oh and in case anyone is like "what the hell are these names?? who is who??", boris is horrorboros and joe is megalodontia)

if you have the grizzco charger, focus on boris first and foremost since you have the longest ranged weapon. if possible, find high ground as soon as you can and destroy the bombs. grab eggs to help you take out the bombs whenever you run out of shots/ink. once boris is gone, joe is the next best target

the grizzco brella could also help with boris (if you're on high ground) but i think the brella should help clear out salmonids and bosses for eggs. from experience, i find that the brella is good against joe

the grizzco splatana should focus on cohozuna, since the charge slash does a lot of damage

the grizzco stringer is also good against cohozuna, as well as taking out salmonids and bosses

the grizzco slosher should focus on taking out bosses since it can them splat them pretty quickly. also doing damage to joe

the grizzco blaster and dualies should focus on clearing out salmonids and bosses

*update* the grizzco roller should focus on salmonids and bosses, but while rolling it can be useful for attacking cohozuna within short range (as long as you don't get splatted) and boris within long range (for its vertical attacks)

long ranged specials should focus on bosses and boris: killer wail, tri strike, crab, inkjet, booyah bomb (the best being crab and booyah bomb for boris)

short ranged specials should focus on taking out the salmonids, bosses, joe, and cohozuna: wave breaker, triple splashdown, kraken, reefslider

crab tank is, hands down, the best special to have in salmon run. out of all the specials, it does the most damage against all three kings. and since we're able to have two specials instead of one in this xtrawave, if you have a crab tank, i would use them on boris and joe

booyah bomb can also help out with the bosses and salmonids if things get too overwhelming

killer wail and triple ink strike can do damage against joe, but i would save one for distant bosses like flyfish and stingers

eggs should be prioritized on joe since it has the most health out of the three, at least until it's weak. jammyman7085 also suggested that we keep joe alive until boris and cohozuna are defeated

any time joe locks on to you, immediately go to cohozuna. joe can also deal a LOT of damage against boris while it's charging, so that could help with taking out boris too. but i would prioritize cohozuna first. however if your timing is right, you could probably damage cohozuna and boris with joe

again, some of these ideas came from jammyman7085 from the comments section of the video so all credit goes to them of course :)

i'll update more when big big run officially starts tomorrow! but if anyone has more tips or strategies that i could add, please feel free to tell me and i'll include them in this post!

[saiph0]

hi hi! what first inspired you to start conlaning? what are some tips you would give to beginners? this is not a call for help what LOL wdym /j/j/j

LOL hi!! thanks for the ask :)

oh boy this'll be a long one, sorry in advance,,,

If anyone has any other tips please feel free to add on!

So I think what inspired me to start conlanging was the dream I had several years ago that started the world of Amatɔqa. In the dream the citizens of the hidden city spoke their own language, though I couldn't recall what was a part of it, so at first I only made up a few words and phrases that are now obsolete.

Another thing that really inspired me to actually get serious about conlanging was the sounds of different natural languages that I found super fun to hear/say.

For example: the "x" sound in the Mandarin word "xièxie"; The sound of Russian; the throaty "kh" or "ch" sound (equivalent of [x] in ipa) of Arabic and Scottish Gaelic; and the list goes on!

As for tips for beginners, man that's a bit of a tough one! It'll depend on what the best-feeling approach would be for you! I'll give some ideas I have though:

The international phonetic alphabet has been my best friend!

If your first language is English, especially American English, you can start out small with this wikipedia article on the ipa sounds we have in English. It was really helpful for me because of how overwhelming the full ipa chart looked to me in the beginning

There's this youtube channel: Glossika Phonics that has a lot of videos on examples of the different sounds in the ipa. It's not always perfect but very helpful for tongue and mouth positioning!

There are some sites that have ipa readers in which you can test out different sounds.

There are also sites with interactive ipa charts that have sound clips of each

Other Tips!

If you like having book resources, I definitely recommend "The Art of Language Invention" by the one and only David J. Peterson. It has so much info on breaking down languages; sounds; grammar; writing systems; and all of that good stuff!

If you really wanna jump into using that conlang and constructing sentences, focus on grammar! I tend to focus on tenses and word order in the beginning because that's the hardest part. Once I figure out grammar, I can make more vocab and just jump into creating sentences!

Experiment experiment experiment! Mess around with putting different sounds you like together and try to figure out which combinations you want to exclude from the language; make random symbols, look at r/neography on reddit for really cool stuff; you can always change stuff later

Definitely look at other natural languages for inspo! What sounds good? What similarities/differences do they have with your first language?

---

Oh god I think i could ramble on forever but I hope this was at least a somewhat helpful start! I'm super open to chatting further if you have anymore questions or just want to share what you've made so far :)

I watched some Snoopy clips on Twitter, it's a cheaply veiled PSA for gov't propaganda: Hey kids you want to be a Scientist, they're cool… Snoopy pretends to fly. Point is even if you never watched Snoopy indoctrinate you:

We're all ingrained with the idea this life is the only one we must live for. But if we pay attention we rarely make it to our 100th attempt at any one thing because our soul gets bored with creation [created things], we need our CREATOR to fill us that is fulfillment.

Tim Keller said the problem with modern people is we feel we deserve a good life, meaning we don't deserve bad things. As a result, rather than accept what is, & try to learn what each event is teaching us about ourselves. We instead try to find a way to force reality to fit our desires or perspective.

[Tim Keller: Power for Facing Trouble]

In 1973 Karl Menninger wrote book noting how society replaced morals with medical model: For most of our problems, we use a medical model.

For example: People who are terribly bitter, they will not forgive. But what do they say: They’re hurting, never admit they’re bitter. Hurting—that’s a medical term for a moral problem. You do NOT have a medical problem; you’ve got a moral problem!

Research findings show 90% of Americans believe they show the kind of love in life, that if everybody showed, would make Society all right. Yet Psychologists say no one is ever healed because we are constantly being damaged by others.

Even Brain Surgeons have noted the brain surprisingly does not feel pain & Dr. Wilder Penfield said no matter what he did, he could never cut-out enough of a person's brain to remove their personality. [Michael Egnor: Evidence Against Materialism]

Saying this shows there is something untouchable beyond the physical realm, the thing David Attenborough says is why he remains agnostic because he's seen blind termites incapable of detecting his presence & so he wonders if we have the same lack of sense perception to detect GOD. The Bible says we know GOD exists, & every time we fail in life is one step closer to meeting our MAKER voluntarily or literally.

[YouTube: Off the Kirb Ministries | Sir David Attenborough - Did You Catch It Too?]

Have you ever invited JESUS into your mess?

it is too early in the morning for me to fully process this but the general vibe I'm getting is you think I said christens in general on my DNI list. I specified aggressive due to religious trauma. I'm also not an atheist, I fall somewhere under the pagen area. if you or I misunderstood something that's completely fine, but if I am correct please do not bully people for having different opinions. if I read something wrong feel free to explain.

hi hola hello!

first of all i wanted to apologize for the veryvery intensive spam 😭 initially i was looking for a specific moment/gifset and thought i'd have more luck finding it on your blog 'cause you're kinda one of my # charles archives tumblrs but i had no idea where to start looking (picture me typing in random '/page/20' 'page/100' thinking it'll just magically appear) so i just gave in and let myself be distracted by your content

(and went down a painful memory lane) (browsed through some of your posts pointing out ferrari's fucked up strategies and lack of critical thinking and it's good to know that they're still in the trenches) (rip)

which ,, know that your edits really are: everything

they're genuinely premium quality and creative and so well made and you're a blessing to this fandom okay

i enjoy the regular gifsets from races and vlogs and all like a lot but your quotes/lyrics/themed edits are just fucking beautiful (annnnd painful like if i were crazy about sebchal i definitely would have 10 mental breakdowns a day because of you) (but like your pinned drives me insane)

you deserve some charles &seb content as a treat to your contribution to this fandom (and for your sanity most likely) (and as payback for hurting everyone with your talent and ideas)

anyways i'm very sorry again i hope you do not have your notifications on for likes 🙂‍↕️ (and sorry in advance for when i’m gonna reblog all of it!) and lastly your icon is the prettiest ever

Hello, hello 👋🏻

This is soooooooo 😭❤️ *prints this ask out and hangs it on the wall* Thank you for taking the time to send this in, it's genuinely so lovely to receive asks like this ❤️

Second of all, okay, in this house we love and approve of mass like/reblog spams👏🏻 So no worries there!! Honestly I love seeing which posts of mine people have liked or reblogged, especially if it's an older gifset or something and it makes me rediscover it as well and I'm like "oh yeah that was a thing, let me go back to that real quick."

🫱🏻‍🫲🏻Same, my pinned also makes me go insane. Sometimes I feel a bit silly for still having very emotional visceral reactions or deep intensive thoughts about something that happened four or five years ago (the passing of time is cruel and unjust) but then messages like this make it all worth it ❤️ Thank you for your kind words 😭 I'm very, very, very happy you enjoyed your stay and also 👀 looking forward to the reblog spam!

Also, if there's ever anything specific you (or anyone else tbh, this is a general PSA) might be looking for, feel free to shoot me an ask and I'll see if I can help! Like please, I literally have '/page/20' 'page/100' and various random tags and/or words in the search bar of my own blog 😭😭😭 Not to mention the gigabytes upon gigabytes of clips and screen recordings and interviews and an assortment of Youtube videos just sitting on my drive; some stuff I've edited, some stuff I meant to use for edits and haven't gotten around to it yet, and some stuff I just want to keep around for reference or to enable my own insanity ajsdfk So if there's ever anything, I'd be happy to help in any way I can!

Anyway, thank you again, hope your day is wonderful, hope your pillow is cold on both sides, etc etc etc❤️

Pose Pack #23 Bench Talks

Imagine waking up on a park bench with no idea how you got there. That is the inspiration behind this pose pack. The sim is woken up by another sim kicking their shoe. I'm not sure everyone will want to use the touching their bruised eye pose, but I included it anyway. After that a friend shows up and tries to cheer up the sad sim. 

Most of the poses in this pack are mix and match unless otherwise stated. I've also included 4 poses of the angry "get off my bench" sim that are not connected to the bench. 

place the transporter in the middle of almost any bench. (I haven't tested them all. I didn't even try to see if it works on a couch)

Download free here

(As always there may be some clipping. You should be able to be used with both male and female sims.)

You will need Andrew's Pose Player or WW Poses and either the Sim Transporter or MC Command Center.

10 QUESTIONS FOR VTUBERS

Q01. Tell us your main (streaming) content! Game and planned project streams, I also do DJ stream sessions playing Holopro songs, and I pretty much dabble in various genres!

Q02. What was the cue that kickstarted your streaming activity? Because I'd like to experience lots of things, I only got one life after all!

Q03. Please recommend us your “newcomer’s friendly” videos or stream archive! First, the quadratic equation-solving stream with Hiodoshi Ao-kun! To be honest I actually own a teaching license in science course, so I was able to make something like this. Of course, there's Ao-kun effort to solve the problems, and it shows in her remarkable growth in this stream alone! Link to the stream

Secondly, Since I have a pretty sturdy physics and all, I tried doing an experiment on myself. Now that I recall, each of these "world-level" tastes is pretty strong on its own. Once I had mixed it all in, turned out there was one flavor that stood out… Which you can check on the stream itself! Link to the stream

The third is a quick and entertaining one! I'd like to do something like this again but with more people. Link to the stream

Q04. Tell us things that you like or something you’re good at! I'm good at playing Rubik's Cube! I can solve one in under 40 seconds. And I like to stream, do muscle training, and DJ-ing!

Q07. What are other things you’re paying attention to other than VTubers? Eiko Kano-san. I really like watching streams that could make me laugh a lot.

Q08. Is there a recent thing that left a deep impression on you, and is there anything else you’d like to try out? Since I like to do a lot of muscle training, I'd like to be involved in work with a protein supplement brand!!!!

Q09. What sort of content you’d like to challenge yourself for now? I'd like to come up with stream ideas, like holding game tournaments and such. It would be nice if I could make a fun project that gets people excited and happy!

Hi! Hope it's all good, I wanted to ask you what software you use for your edits I've honestly no clue where to start but I've loads of little clips of yours saved :D

hiya!! im so sorry for the delayed answer, i swear tumblr doesnt give me notifs about my inbox im fuming. this is quite long so the answer and some editing tips are under the cut! please feel free to reach out if there's something that doesn't make sense or if you ever need any tips or help!

i personally use adobe after effect 2020 with some plugins! most people would probably use adobe premiere pro for compilations like the ones i do but im WAY WAY WAY more used to after effect due do making daily fancams/edits in the past (i do not recommend doing this btw- got burned out after doing it for about a year LMAO). so for example if you're interested in making edits like this or this i'd go for after effect but if you wanna make stuff like this or this, premiere pro is probably the way to go, even if i use AE for both 😭

adobe products are very expensive and you need quite the computer for it to run it without crashing all the time so if you dont have the resources or want to dedicate some time into researching turrenting + vpn and how to install it properly + the plugins on top of learning a pretty confusing (at first) program i'd recommend capcut! it's a free phone app and ive personally never used it, but ive had a lot of mutuals before use it and it looks great and pretty simple to use once you get the hang of it.

learning after affect is extremely frustrating i wont lie, but it's probably the best software if you want to do complicated stuff or simply just get smooth slow mo that you often use in edits! it's worth it in the end after you get the hang of it! there's a lot of youtube tutorials out there and i'd love to help with settings and keyframes if needed!

using AE can be a little bit of an overkill if you're only looking into trying editing to see if you think it's fun and worth the time it takes, so phone apps is honestly an amazing start to get into it. i just decided to go 120% out of nowhere due to getting a hyperfixiation on deciding to learn how to edit and doing it in a more "professional" way and potentially become an editor in the future -> which did not happen. or well. i did end up having a tiktok account with 45k followers when i posted a lot of my edits of shows that i liked but i was potentially thinking of becoming a yt editor or maybe work in media more. however im a burned out nurse student now LMAO

personal tips when it comes to editing;

i use while editing is to make a mindmap or simply just write down key elements you want in your edit to make it easier and prevents you from having to redo your edit (which is painful).

to make the edit "run more smoothly" make sure to fade the clip to be more dark at the end and start the next coming clip with a fade from dark to light. learning slow mo can be tricky in any app, but if possible i use the same thing with clips where it starts faster, is the slowest in the middle of the clip, and starts to get to normal speed at the end of the clip to make the transition over to another clip seem smoother and not like a raw cut.

this might be more of a editing style preference but i always add a slight zoom (either in or out depending on the transition) at every clip so that it's not as awkwardly still. i also always add a slight shake that you cant really see unless you focus on it for the same reason as the zoom. i found that even if the transitions are extremely simple or not even there at all, these small things make an edit look way more "professional" and less choppy.

next thing is "just" to learn what transitions you like after that and dont be afraid to mess with settings, even if you follow a tutorial. its all about finding your own editing style and what you like more!

i download youtube videos using loader.to but screen recording also works! i download mine to make the fps be correct to match when im slowing down a clip but that might be a bit overkill. youtube4kdownloader.com is a great website to cut clips from youtube videos to download too! just make sure to use adblockers when using the websites!

also: editing takes a lot of time and dont feel discouraged if it takes long to finish one! once you have more of an editing style it becomes more of a routine the more you edit!

these tips can be used on any editing app (with the slow mo being an exception in some apps) but then again, dont feel like you need any of it and just go ham on whatever ideas you have! id love to see any edit of yours :D
