This clip teach me better than my four years of college in journalism.

I love tutorials for things that are seemingly obvious, and many of us already do instinctively, but when broken down provide us with a much greater sense of control and purpose of our editing workflows. Really helps me jump over that especially tricky bar that distinguishes the good from the great.

Super collection of tips! Reminds me a lot of 'Watchtower of Turkey'.

One of the biggest and important aspect of videos and film is sound. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make a tutorial how you record your sound effects like birds flapping their wings, footsteps, sounds of water etc! Thanks and very informative

Hey, your channel is really good! There is definitely a large audience for the your uniquely styled short-story videos, keep doing what you're doing and they'll find you!

[aqfamily]

Gold. Love how you always teach us about story telling rather than making stuff cool w transitions and edit. My fav story teller channel for sure!

[christiangaraffa]

Brandon keeps it simple and professional. No frills, only the relevant stuff. Great teacher!

[datenraten]

Great and original video, once again! It's kinda interesting how you can get away with compression artifacts / lower resolution / etc. when digitally punching in, granted you follow this hectic editing style.

You are by far the most enjoyable to watch and learn from.  Your explanations really make me want to THINK about what I am doing rather than making everything up while editing.  Your explanations overlaid on actual footage and examples is so easily understood.  I can't wait for more from you.  You're probably so busy creating content that you don't read the comments but I felt compelled to send one anyway.  Keep up the awesome work.

I've been shooting /editing for 30 years now but still enjoy reminders and tips like these. Here's one I'd like to add:

6. Pay attention to and use good clean sound to use to help sell the motions in the shot and transitions.

Thanks for sharing your tips.
