I made an old post about hating the editing process and making videos... i was wrong

the points i made in my old post were all related to editing, gathering clips from the internet to reuse them, and it took a lot of time due to doing a faceless channel, which made me think i was only doing it for views & attention.

I was wrong, what i hated was myself being incompetent at making a great video, in my videos something has always felt off or wrong, i speak well but it doesn't keep my attention for the whole 5 minute benchmark of the video, i felt bored while watching my own content. until i understood the importance of a lot of things, learned from a specific short film cinematic content creators, i understood so much of what i missed, until i made a great video which gave me an insane high dopamine while i watch it, keep in mind i didn't even post it yet and i felt happy. honestly i feel like today i fell in love what the creative process of making a video feel fun and i felt fun. i no longer care about views(to a certain extent obviously) but my full focus is now on improving the creative process on what i know now.

welcome to my ted talk. lol

I think i'm a fake Youtuber

i always wanted to make youtube videos, but when i started learning the process of editing, i just hated every single second doing it. here's why i say i'm a fake youtuber

1- i hate gathering clips online to put on the screen because i'm faceless. its a huge pain in the brain if you know what i mean.

2- I absolutely hate Editing process from start to finish, i don't enjoy it at all and one of the worst parts is choosing music and being on the edge whether its gonna get copyrighted or not.

3- i'm lazy or i had ADHD i don't know. when i start working on a concept i get in the flow and just finish it in a few days and its literally all i think about, but when i finish the video and upload it to all social media platforms. it gets no likes or views, which leads me to my next point.

4- i thought i wanted to make videos for fun but it seems i like the attention it brings and when a video does badly i really feel bad its like i wasted all my efforts on nothing. so i clearly seek attention and praise not just enjoy the idea of being a youtuber.

its very strange. i tried switching to short form and still same problem. i just hate that i'm faceless and use clips on the internet like i'm stealing from other people, its such a bad feeling.

Interested in a video Editor for an Anime style YouTube Channel

Hi everyone, I’m interested in hiring a long term Editor for my Anime channel due to time being an issue for me, for reference it’s a very new channel with few videos. What I want is a clear editing style of someone with a faceless editing channel. My plan is to upload a Video every single Friday until the end of the year. It will be a minimum of 10 minutes for every single video.

I personally know how to edit and I already published videos. What I do is write a script from scratch reviewing an anime after I finished watching it. Recording my voiceover. And I want the Editor to turn into a great video for YouTube. If anyone’s interested kindly let me know. I’ll make a decision based on feedback and rates and previous portfolio.

I’m not a 100% sure I want to get an Editor honestly since I can do this myself but I’m willing to explore the market and see for myself if this is worth the investment or not.

Working on a Short Film, but i'm struggling to find online B-Rolls

please share a stock footage site that is made of real videos i don't want A..i stuff, i checked the most common sites like pexels or pixabay and others and its all not real videos. so how do you get real videos ?

for example:

1- A camera moving or filming something

2- A person that feels lost

3- People at work communicating

i'm not sure how to approach these and find real footage to make a Short Film style video about life but it's faceless.

Trying to stop Junk Food and bad online Habits

1- i completely stopped eating snacks for 20 days now, it is the main reason i gained so much fat. i do indulge myself in an ice cream on the weekend but i do think i might just cut that off.

2- Trying to lessen my Social media consumption, i deleted instagram and twitter today and decided i will only use them on browser so i can have less notifications and focus on other things(Tiktok not yet deleted honestly)

3- My main drive to get disciplined is that i really want to go back to playing sports outside my house, i want to lose weight but i'm not interested in being muscular or anything i hate the gym. But i do have strong fear of going out and doing sports i'm extremely rusty and added like 30 KG( 66 pounds) in weight so i can barely run properly.

4- Started a Youtube channel on my favorite shows/movies so i can keep myself busy at home

I don't know, i just felt like sharing this as someone in my early 30s it feels silly to post this but that's my reality for now i guess. i hope to come back to this subreddit in 2027 having continued on the good path and where i want to be in my personal life.

Chainsaw man Reze Arc - has the best background music i've heard in my entire life.

The piano during the pool scene with Reze and Denji legit moves my emotions with every single second. absolute cinema moment for me personally. I listen to this so so so so much it's actually insane. would love to know if anyone has any similar type of emotional background music that is so good? but the issue is i think i like the music so much because of amazing the scene was and how innocent and pure it felt at the time. the first half of this movie is legit a masterpiece, all of it is but the first half made me feel things i never felt.

it was so good i started a youtube channel and just uploaded a few chainsaw man videos, i will also keep spamming them, i need to spread this message around( ps this is not self promo i will not reveal my channel name)

idk if i'm a Youtuber anymore.

i noticed that i don't have a grind mindset like a lot of people here, couple of years ago i started a channel and posted a lot of football content and it was fun but i stopped after 6 months. and now i started a new faceless channels and haven't uploaded anything in 25 days after a good initial start. maybe i'm just not built for youtube even tho i love anime and football and consume content everyday, creating the content is so time consuming. i have a job and work 6 days a week. so i don't have a lot of free time. and doing a faceless channel is insanely time consuming, like a 5-6 minute video takes a lot of time.

idk what to do anymore, i always had a dream of doing youtube full time but i feel like all that is crushed and i have to adjust to reality.

do you have any tips to make faceless channels editing easier ? i'm good with writing a proper script from scratch and doing my voiceovers, is the easy part, the hard part is gathering content and clips of the anime i review or movie clips or meme clips for jokes. it takes such a long time that i now hate editing and kinda considering quitting
