Content Creator Shares Lessons Learned and Goals for the Future



Another day, another productive step toward my content creation goals.


Here's a recap:


Achievements...


- I created and distributed a TikTok editing tutorial video across multiple platforms.

- I streamed live while making the video above and chatting with my followers.

- I edited one chapter of a long-form video and distributed it as shorts, reels, and on another TikTok channel for that niche. 


Challenges...


- I didn't make any online course sales today. I need to level up my course promotion game.

- I still have five product reviews pending. I need to get those done to unlock more affiliate opportunities.

- I haven't optimized yesterday's live stream recording. I need to polish it up for monetization and lead magnet. 


Lessons Learned...


- One chapter of the long-form video took about 2 hours to edit. I'll need to dedicate a total of 12 hours to finish the rest. Good thing I plan to make them short and standalone!

- AI is my productivity secret sauce. Toggling between Bard, Bing, and Chat GPT gives me different answers each time. No single best AI yet, but combining them helps me up my content creation game.

- I'm sad to learn that AI regulation may delay the release of new versions. I'm hoping for tools that can supercharge my business and life.


Tomorrow's Focus...


To prioritize content edits, I'll skip the live stream and tutorial creation. Let's finish as many outstanding projects before the weekend!


What May Hold Me Back...


I'm feeling anxious about conducting this Sunday's mobile videography class. 


Overcoming Anxiety...


I'm going to seek guidance from AI to overcome anxiety. It tells me to review the course material, practice my presentation, and remind myself of my expertise. Plus, do some self-care with deep breaths and positive affirmations. Let's rock that class!


That's how today went. I accomplished a lot and learned some lessons. I'm excited to keep pushing forward and growing my business.

Macbook Air M1 Case

I bought a transparent case for my MacBook Air M1 . It came with a free screen protector, a keyboard cover, and some rubber plugs to cover the ports. Check it out! https://youtu.be/d-wALSd3nn8 I didn't expect the rubber plugs. It was a nice surprise. The case fits snuggly, with access to all the ports. The keyboard cover is almost invisible to the eye. I have no intention to use the screen protector. Why? I need to see the true color of the display for my YouTube videos. ~ Adrian Lee  @Adrian Video Image  The video was recorded on iPhone 12 Pro Max with Filmic Pro app in 4K 60fps and edited with Capcut.

Sony Vegas Pro 8 Tutorial - Multicamera Editing

Sony Vegas Pro 8 makes it easier to edit videos from different cameras right from the timeline. You can capture and edit video for a single scene from 2 or more cameras or for a single scene shot a few times with one camera. Here is a tutorial of a Multicamera Edit of a drama I shot. The drama was acted out four times to the public and being a non-profit organization, the client have budget only for one videographer. For each of the 4 acts, the camcorder (Sony HDR-FX7 High Definition Camcorder) was placed at 4 different positions and shot in various angles. Multicamera edit is accomplished in only 8 steps with the Sony Vegas Pro 8. Step #1: Capture Multicamera Video Clips Use the normal Sony Vegas Video Capture function to capture recordings from each camera. Give each capture filename a unique name. Enable scene detection before capturing so that each segment is captured as a separate clip. Step #2 : Layout Video Clips on Timeline Drag and drop video clips over each other on the...
