HOW TO EDIT HIGH PERFORMING VLOGS

HOW TO EDIT HIGH PERFORMING VLOGS step by step for dummies (you're not dumb, it's just hard) FILMING - back camera ONLY - settings: 4K at 60fps - healthy mix of close up shots (tripod), wide angle shots (tripod), and POV shots (holding your phone) - keep your phone on your tripod and follow yourself around as you do your normal routine - utilize your voice as much as possible for engagement. the more you say, the more there is to converse about in the comments ROUGH CUT - import all footage to CapCut - cut the fluff out (stuff you know don't want in the vlog) - there should be a cut every 0.4-0.6s - you can have multiple "clips" from the same take, just cut it up so it stays engaging - I personally aim for 40s-60s for a vlog especially in the beginning because retention is everything!!! HOOK (on screen + visual) - on screen text hook + visual hook + verbal hook = a successful vlog - tell the viewer what the video is about. - if it's an evening in your life then call it an evening in your life - avoid vague context and vague series names that a stranger won't understand. Just keep the title simple! TIPS FOR SUCCESS - rotate between voiceovers + talking vlogs - how can you stand out among everyone else? If everyone is doing yellow, do pink. If everyone is editing with fast clips, slow yours down, etc. - BE YOURSELF AND SHOW YOUR PERSONALITY - give some context as to who you are - not just "day in my life" but "day in my life as a 26 year old working two jobs" for example
