Hello, guys, to our Zoom technology class. I'm your instructor, Pedro, and today I covered a previous, in my previous class, I covered on the camera. I was gonna cover only editing a video or making clips out of one video, or for social media or however you wanna use them for, or just to make them shorter. But I'm gonna go over on how to center yourself on the camera right quick. We're gonna make a quick video, and then from that video, we're gonna go straight to editing that video to get it off and going to wherever you wanna post it or save it or however you wanna do it. Okay, so tips on editing and recording yourself or taking a picture could be utilized for both. Siri's in session, enter. Hey, calendar, Wednesday, January 17th. You guys can hear my phone doing? Yes, all right, great. App switcher, photos, back photos, camera, active, camera. And excuse my background noise. I got my children with me. Okay, so we're on it. You're on it, Pedro. Center. All right. So I'm gonna describe the feelings of the camera, what type of tactile feedbacks you get. So as you can hear, it's telling me, we're moving one face center. Right now it's telling me bottom edge. It's talking about my face. It tells me bottom edge because I got the phone really close to my ear because the microphone. But let me make it better. I'm gonna take this microphone part off. So now I'm able to, okay, bam. So I hope you have to hear my phone. Also, you get haptic noise, like little beeps and stuff to let you know when you're stabilized. It also gives you vibration to let you know if you're leveled. It lets you know if you're in the right side of the screen, left of the screen, upper side and bottom side. And then once you're centered, it will let you know you're centered. And I take extra steps or precautions to make sure I am in the center. And usually those steps are holding my phone once I'm centered and I move my head to the right. I'm gonna center myself. So I'm centered. So I move my head to the right and it tells me I'm by the right. And then I come back to the middle. Now it's telling me I'm centered. And that tilt left is for your level, to level your phone. And y'all heard it right now. It said level. Now I'm leveled. Everything is lined up. I'm gonna level. The phone is not looking crooked. It's looking straight at me. And if I move to the left, it tells me I'm on the left edge. Now I'm back to the middle. It's telling me centered. That's what I usually do to make sure I am in the middle. You know, and the more practice you get with these type, when you start doing this, the faster, the easier it gets. And then I also put my head up. And mostly that is covered because... Give me a sec. So I'm about to record a video. Okay. Let me see. Centered. That's what I need help with. Hey, what's up class? We're right here by the cut. This is the part I'm gonna cut. And this is the part I'm about to start. Three, two, one. Hey guys, welcome to the Zoom technology class with your instructor Pedro. And this is a recording to show how we can edit and make clips from this video. Cut. And part two, this is the second clip that I'm gonna clip out from this video to make extra clips for two different videos. Cut. And you might have noticed that I count down. I also give myself a verbal cut, you know, and I know to cut before that. And I will show you how, give me a second, how we can edit those and we can make two clips or we can make one clip from that one video. And we're gonna clip the edges, those parts out. If you were editing and you make different clips from one video, let's say like four, it's some social media that lets you select them in a certain order. Also in the photos app, you could push select and you select them in the order you want them. And you could, you press the share button and you could click the social media you want. Like for example, Facebook, YouTube or however, et cetera, et cetera. And it will line those videos up in order for you. A quick tip for you guys that do social media and wanna post on Facebook. Okay, so right now we're gonna head over to the photos app. Let's get out of the camera. Camera, active, camera, active. Photos, active, video, date, January 16th, time, 3, 13 p.m., video, date, January 16th, time, 3, 13 p.m., video, time, video, video, date, hour, date, date, video, 15 p.m., video, 7, 22 p.m., video, time, date, date, 15 p.m., video, 7, 22 p.m., video, time, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, time, date, date, video, time, date, video, But what I usually do is press info here, go to caption and write a caption for this video. And also if you export, it's also the name of this video that is IMG number, number, number, whatever number it is. You know, if you need to find it in your hard drive or on your phone that you connect to your computer. So, but we're going to go to another video. So, but we're going to go to another video. So, we're going to go to, on the top left, well on the top right, before you get to actions, if you're navigating. So, you hear, the back button is the very first item on the screen. So, we swipe right, that's the heading, and to the right of the heading is the edit button. We tap edit. Okay, and we're going to explore, this editing section right here. Okay, as you'll see, there's also plug-ins if you have plug-ins. Let's say, like, CapCut, iMovie, and things like that. You have your simple play button. Yeah, I heard that start adjustable value. Yeah, I heard that start adjustable value. That adjustable value is the value we could adjust to get our cut where we want. So, I am going to do those right quick. And also, I'm going to continue exploring the next, the next section I'm going to continue exploring the next, the next slider so you can get acquainted with those. And that's the ending, that's the ending slider that we're going to adjust for our end time. And we keep scrolling. And this key frame is like your player slider. So, let's say, right now it says 22 point seconds. That's where we kind of press the edit button at and that's where the playhead is left off. You could call it like a playhead. But let's say you want the video to start without editing. You want the video to start like, okay, I ended the video, let's say, 36 seconds. If I go down to give me a second. Okay. And this is the ending of the video. Now I swipe down one second. So, I swipe to the right. Now the key frame jumped to the end because we were adjusting the end. So, if we want to take a look at the end without playing the entire video, we will mess around with the key frame. Either swipe up or swipe down depending on what you're trying to do. Right now I'm in the end so I'm going to swipe down trying to get to, let's say, 34 seconds so I can see the last two seconds of the video and see where I'm in leaving the ending slider. And sometimes these values, guys, they travel by, let's say, 36.2. 36.1. So, it is going to be some swiping but A, it's accessible sometimes, you know. It would be nice if we'd be able to, probably with a three-finger swipe maybe, but I haven't tested that out, man. I just usually run on my phone like it's a treadmill with my fingers. But, you know. So, we're at 34.7 seconds. So, I'm going to push play so we can just see where we left off with that 36 ending mark. So, that's the play. As you see, I'm right before the cut. So, that's where I'm going to leave it at. That's where I'm going to leave my ending square. I'll leave it like that because it sounds perfect. So, you have your key frame and you see I'm back to the end. So, if you wanted to adjust it, adjust the ending and come back here and adjust this slider so you can start playing at the position you would like, you are able to. There's also a few more controls to the right. It was repeating the menu. You've got your filters button and your crop and rotate. I don't really use those functions. I'm also going to check that those are accessible, but I haven't had the means to go use the cropping tool. For those that do the AI, also some of the AI do cropping for you. Sometimes they fail, though, depending on the video processing they're doing. But I know some tools that are able to crop you in the middle of the thing, but sometimes they're free tools, so sometimes they're hit and miss. Let's also click the front. So, that's what I'm about to do right now. Well, let's play the video. We're right here by the cut. This is the part I'm going to cut, and this is the part I'm about to start. 3, 2, 1. Okay, I paused it. So, right now I'm about to go look at my keyframe to let me know what seconds are those in the video. So, 11 seconds. Yeah, so it takes a little time sometimes. No, that was not able to do with the three fingers, right? So, unfortunately, this is how you're doing it on the phone. If you're doing a quick one, it's doable for social media. Or if you have time and you're trying to get something out and, let's say, for example, you want to be mobile and you don't want to take out your computer or you don't have your computer, this is, let's say, a backup for that. So, even if you want to post a video or whatever it may be or you just captured an entire long video and you just wanted a few seconds from it, you could go back and make it shorter. You would never miss the shot because you're like, let me press record at the right time. You can just start pressing record and record the whole entire thing and just clip it when you need it. All right, so we're there. All right, so we're there. Hey guys, welcome to the Zoom Technology class with your instructor Pedro. And this is a recording to show how we can edit and make clips from this video. Cut. So, at the first, I am going to just clip the edges. So, let me pause this. Hold on. Let me make sure I got everything. Before I save, I got everything good. Cut. All right. I'm going to go to make extra clips for two different videos. Cut. Hold on. So, let's adjust that. Give me a second because I'm just in the end. As you can see, I'm jumping from the ending slider to the key frame slider. So, I will have to start over the entire video and listening over and over. Sometimes the video could be three minutes long. You don't want to listen through two minutes and then do an edit and then listen to it two minutes again. I know sometimes tedious, but it's something that you could use as a tool. Cut. Okay. So, now let's hear it all. All right. As you can see, there's no more cut in the end. There's no more click from the pressing the record button or nothing like that. So, you get a, you know, you don't get no pop. You don't get no noise, you know. And that seems kind of amateur if you leave all those little stuff in, you know. Let's say you're trying to put these clips together. When you press the volume up to press record, let's say you double tap the screen to press record, it's going to record that tap, you know. And you want a clean recording. So, now that we're done, we head back to the top. That's the very first item. So, we swipe to the right and you have your done. So, we double tap on that. So, now you have two options right here. You can save the video, okay, and that means it replaces the original or you can save the video as loop clip and leave the original there still. Okay. But we want to save it. So, I am going to save it. Okay. So, now we're back to the screen where you can share, play, edit, or however you want. But now we want to make two clips out of this video because we want to take one part out, you know. It would be nice if we'd be able to add the cuts within there. If you're good with iMovie, you know. I'm going to see if there's an editing app for Windows and I'm going to get myself acquainted with it and I'll do a class about that. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
