Stop Editing slow, speed up using shortcuts

Tip #1 Shortcuts

Shortcuts are your friends, nay your family! C, V, W, Q and Ctl + M are your friends. Embed them in your mind or even more Grab a Cheat Sheet. Using shortcuts is an easy way to speed up the process by a mile, it may not seem like it but when you start using them you will instantly notice a noticeable decrease in the time it takes to edit a video from beginning to end.

Tip #2 Workspace

We have talked about this a lot in live streams, some watch videos, some listen to music and others listen to that dripping tap. Workspace is more important than you think, healthy edit is a healthy mindset which is a healthy surrounding. Clean the desk, move the junk then get your edit started. No distractions!

Tip #3 Process

Don’t overcomplicate the process of editing a video, I know your 5k masterclass tells you to label everything and what not but honestly if your edit is for a youtube video or something that isn’t a large budgeted production then mate… honestly… its fine to just chuck stuff on the timeline and get started.
If your editing a video and only have 2/3 Video layers then what’s the point on spending 3 hours going through colour coded groups of groups. If I'm doing a youtube video then I just whack it all in. Cut the story then add from there. Don’t overcomplicate an already simple process. But saying that, take this with a pinch of salt. If you know that you will need to show clients' work and work on a larger amount of footage, then don’t listen to this point!

I'm not sure how many of these comments you've had already but, you're the only video editing sort of "teacher" (I guess) that I can watch and not get annoyed lol. Everyone I've tried watching were either way too into it/energetic, or they would talk way too much leading me to click off the video. Your energy seems more natural and chill, I dig it man!
