finally a proper tutorial that shows you how to ACTUALLY DO IT. Im so sick of these slow tutorial channels with 5 minute intros, THANK YOU MY BRUDDAH

[Charliem]

Holy shit, I've never seen such a well made, concise tutorial in my life.

[panmush]

A supremely effective tutorial, I love this look! FYI: you can actually use the effect “chromatic aberration” to shift the colours to create that damaged colour look and save yourself like 15 mins and some GPU power

I would crop to 4:3 that would really seal the deal

[blackbird]

as a little cherry on top I would recommend lowering saturation down to something 70-60% depending on your footage. The old cam-recorders didn't have the vibrant colours we have these days, it helps sell the effect even more.
PS: This is how tutorials should be, thanks so much!

I tried this and added some scan lines to the video as well, i set them to lighten and lowered the opacity so that they were faint and...it made this already cool effect even cooler. Thanks for this one bud!

[DollHair]

I love the speed at which you explain things. Not too slow, not too fast and no small talk. Thanks for the tutorial!

[SquirrelMonkeyCom]

Good tutorial. With the aspect ratio 4:3 it looks even more like VHS.

[HattySims]

This is such a helpful tutorial, thank you for making it!

[LaloRacer]

LOL I loved the way this tutorial was made, short simple, straight to the point!

[baphomet]

THANK YOU for going fast!!! You literally did it and didn't talk about unimportant shit dawg. Thanks!

[kigwil]

This taught me more than I intended to learn and did it faster than any other tutorial. This is how tutorials should be made

[hayden]

I looked this up TODAY to add this effect to a video. You entered in the date that you recorded it, 4/22/17, which flabbergasted me, seeing how EXACTLY 6 years later from that day, I watched this video for help. Thank you, from 6 years later :)

Good tutorial, no rambling unnecessary information, quick and to the point. I wish more people made tutorials like this, I hate it when people over explain something that could have been said with a few words.

[Kote-wvtl]

eventually it all snapped into place and I started learning how to add all the effects, titles, motion text. It was pretty cool to see my

[michaeljahrling]

This was an excellent video! I played around a little with the settings to make it a little more subtle, but still love this tutorial.

[gabrieln]
