SPEAKER_03

Hello and welcome. My name is Tom.

SPEAKER_00

And I'm Heather.

SPEAKER_03

And you're sitting at the Couples Table.

SPEAKER_00

The Couples Table is a live stream podcast here on this channel. Join us for better or worse.

SPEAKER_03

Richer or poorer.

SPEAKER_00

In sickness and in health.

SPEAKER_03

As long as we do streams.

SPEAKER_00

Yay! Hello, everybody. Oh wow, it gave me 10 ideas.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I was like getting distracted by the still going.

SPEAKER_00

Hello, everybody checking in. Mr. Cameron Juggie of the House, Rio Pel Room. Hello, hello. Oh. Parker Jennings, Chip. Hi, Roger. Oh, you know what? I just remembered.

SPEAKER_03

I really like saying everybody.

SPEAKER_00

Here, you say hi. I just remembered.

SPEAKER_03

Caleb's here, and that is Super McCool. Julie's here. Mihaul, Aubrey, Drew. Everybody is here. Oh, that's Matt's donation. There we go. Now all is right in the world.

SPEAKER_00

We need to get you one though.

SPEAKER_03

I have a gold one.

SPEAKER_00

Do you? Well, let's do it.

SPEAKER_03

I'll go grab it.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, now okay. So did you catch up with hey everybody? Made it just in time. Hello. Sorry for the for the late stream today. I had a doctor's appointment. All is good, but just had to take care of some stuff. We still wanted to stream. Look at us. Look at us go. Okay. What is this our third stream? Is this the third one? This is the third one. And guess what? I've made three videos. Well, I made three videos yesterday. One of them was a client video, so you're not gonna see it. It doesn't count towards the 38. Uh, but I think I am on video four. I'm making video four of 38 by July 2nd, which is a little less than 100 days. Yeah, but it like feels it's like it feels soon. Because I was, you know, I've been asking Alexa like how many days left till July 2nd, and then I'm like, okay, I have to make a video like once every three days, but then it keeps like decreasing, you know. So anyway.

SPEAKER_03

Back to what is this?

SPEAKER_00

So what do what do you do do pink, do pink.

SPEAKER_03

I have this. Well, it's not just pink. That's dope. It's because I have no association with reporter store where we get all of these things, but um, I guess they I don't know. They they sent me sort of a care package a while ago that included this, um, which was like experimental before they started releasing these, and then they they sent me this one, which I love the color of this one, but it is customized, which is super cute, which is really cool. But I I feel like put it on. I don't think there's any way I could like let unless it was like you have one that says your name on it, and everybody else has one that says their name on it. Oh, this actually looks really cool. I'm not gonna lie. I don't know. So they're not even made for this microphone, but they fit more fancy right now. I know. Look at this. I don't know. Watch out, but this is so nice of them. So I put it on a microphone that's in the background, so but I just feel like it's it's cute.

SPEAKER_00

I think it's cute.

SPEAKER_03

Awesome. Like I'm so appreciative, and it was so kind, but you know, I don't know if I can make a YouTube video. Is that right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They sent this one when they were like experimenting with the flaky stuff, and then they started selling them. And I we showed this one on the stream, and that was when Matt was in the chat, and he was like, Oh, uh yeah, because you were saying purple and silver or gold and purple don't go together. So there you go. So anyway, anyway, yeah. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

I might want to I'll switch between them. Just show the name. Own it. There we go.

SPEAKER_03

In case no one knows you're tuning in, be don't know who I am.

SPEAKER_00

Oh boy.

SPEAKER_03

Anyway, it's the best.

SPEAKER_00

Anyway, so what's up?

SPEAKER_03

Um, I don't know what is up.

SPEAKER_00

Well, today, so today's topic was my idea.

SPEAKER_03

Well, uh, to so to kind of get to that, um, based on what you're doing, uh, Mr. Cameron asks, are you making shorts or pants for your 38 videos?

SPEAKER_00

Shots or pants.

SPEAKER_03

Shots or pants.

SPEAKER_00

Um I have no idea how to answer this.

SPEAKER_03

Are you counting short form content? Okay, so you're making longer, longer than a minute videos.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, I'm not gonna count shorts because well, actually, I don't know. It depends how far you get when we get close to just yeah, no, no. I mean, like so right now I'm making clips of the couples table. I feel like I've got a workflow. I have an upcoming video about this. Um and I feel like these don't count because it's just you know, you I mean that's not a video.

SPEAKER_03

You're not trying to like game the system, like you're trying to progress.

SPEAKER_00

Like I yeah, so yeah. I have probably 30 ideas in a notebook of video ideas, so it's just about getting them done.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I like that. That's cool. Yeah, and that's kind of what we're talking about today. Um I was just reading the the chat. Hidden with the hot pink, Drew says, which I also like they they customize this, but now I learned you can get your windscreens customized from reporter store, so you could have it say whatever you want or a logo or something, and that's actually super cool. Oh, so yeah, if you want if you wanted a custom one, you could order it.

SPEAKER_00

There you go. Umbucha's here.

SPEAKER_03

And yeah, so today we're talking about helping to make a better YouTube video, right?

SPEAKER_00

Well, okay, so there's a couple ways that we can approach this. Um because okay, so let me tell you the evolution of this couples table idea. So I have an idea for a video, and I feel like my idea is fine, but I wanted to ask Tom for his feedback because I feel like he can make it better.

SPEAKER_02

That's right. There are my cover.

SPEAKER_00

Like there are certain I don't ask you for feedback on like every video. Yeah, there's just you know, I made three yesterday, I didn't even ask you, but but this one specifically, I was like, I I actually want your feedback.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

And then it made me think of oh, we should we should have this conversation on the couples table so that I feel like showing how two people collaborate on a YouTube video idea and like how you take an original idea and iterate and make it better is interesting. Um, and then it made me think because I feel like in the past week we've been talking a lot about YouTube tools. Yeah, oh yeah, new ones and other ones and um like we've been talking a lot about AI and how how we've seen a lot of YouTube creators talking about how it's very exciting to you know to have AI as a as a resource for the creative process. Um and I was also thinking like, well, we could put the AI to the test because I can ask you how to make my original video better. Yeah, and then I can ask Chat GPT how they can make it better. So I don't know where we go. We're just gonna vibe.

SPEAKER_03

I do feel like though the Chat GPT logo should be a monocle because a monocle only goes over AI.

SPEAKER_00

Wow. I'm gonna put on the Oh my god, I had to really think about that. Yeah, that was rough. That like I could see the processing time clicking in my brain.

SPEAKER_03

That's that organic intelligence, you know.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, so here's a here's a little secret for the couple stable people. I'm just gonna tell them.

SPEAKER_03

I hope it's fine.

SPEAKER_00

You guys are part of the club.

SPEAKER_03

We're both artificial androids.

SPEAKER_00

No, so if you go to Tom's YouTube channel, um, actually, I'll show you.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I don't even know what this is.

SPEAKER_00

We're gonna show you. How do I do this?

SPEAKER_03

I'm scared.

SPEAKER_00

Screen share.

SPEAKER_03

Rob's here.

SPEAKER_00

Is it this? Yeah, okay. Ready? So if you go to Tom's YouTube channel, which you should. He has a little secret thing that he does here at the top, right here, okay? This is new. YouTube recently changed their like interface where the first part of your channel description will show right on the front page. It didn't do that before. No. Um, and he changes it. Here's the secret he changes it every week, and he wanted to see if anyone noticed. But he read, he told me to read this, and it took me like a minute, a minute to understand what I was reading. But of course, it's you know, yeah, I don't my mind just doesn't work the same.

SPEAKER_03

Much harder to come up with new jokes than I thought it would be, but it's kind of a fun exercise every week. But a lot of people's YouTube channels now just say like, this is a channel where I post and it just sort of gets cut off because it like wasn't, it's just whatever their description has been forever. So now I've seen people start to do a little play around with it.

SPEAKER_00

So it's a little Easter egg for you.

SPEAKER_03

It kind of reminds me of like the MySpace days when you could have like your little quote or whatever on your profile and everyone would change it.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, see, it wasn't me. It wasn't just me. Drew got it late too. I had I was like, what is the I know it's here, it's grammatically incorrect. It's here, but yeah.

SPEAKER_03

According to labels, Tom Buck is on the left and sure is on the right. This is my wife, Shore.

SPEAKER_00

Hey Rob. Oh, cool.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah, you've been busy.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, Kim, you've been busy, but it's very exciting. Oh, thank you.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, that's awesome.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, so how so what do you think I should do? How should we?

SPEAKER_03

Well, I know nothing about this idea. You've not like I don't have beforehand prep, but so you should tell me what your idea is and what you want help with. I try to help you out. People in the chat could even try to help out, and then we see what the machine decides to do.

SPEAKER_00

Okay. Because I was I was thinking, like, if we really wanted to put the AI to the test, then you guys should get the same prompt, right? Like it wouldn't be fair.

SPEAKER_03

Well, yeah, right.

SPEAKER_00

It wouldn't be fair to the artificial intelligence if it got like a but I don't know how to explain it.

SPEAKER_03

When they take over the world, then we need to know they need to know that we played fair.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, well, let me just tell you. Let's start there. Let's just start like human beings. Okay. I also have another question, but okay, sorry. So so many things. I wrote it down. Okay. Okay, so here's my idea. Heather just jump is my newest endeavor, YouTube endeavor.

SPEAKER_02

HJJ.

SPEAKER_00

Yes.

SPEAKER_02

Oh boy.

SPEAKER_00

And um, hey Sean, hi, off topic question. When are you returning to Final Fantasy 14? That is a very good question. What is that meaning?

SPEAKER_03

When are you returning to FF14 or not 14?

SPEAKER_00

Um soon. I I would say definitely in April. Like there you go.

SPEAKER_03

That's no April Fools.

SPEAKER_00

For sure, April. I just don't know when. I just finished Octopath Traveler 2. I can't put theater rhythm down, and I am kind of confused on Disco Elysium. So I have like three games, but anyway, anyway, anyway. Okay, so here's my um idea. Sure. Heather just jump. Um, I told you about this. I wanted to do like a weekly series because one of the things that I struggle with with jump rope is finding good music. Because I I feel like so much of the stage that I'm in when it comes to jump rope is like it's like figuring out the freestyle of it because when you're learning it, it's like dancing, right? Like you get through the fundamentals, but then now it's like coming up with your own choreography. And if the music isn't there, then I'm just like off.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

So whenever I find a good song, I want to share it and be like, this is such a good song. Like if you are looking for good music, yeah. So I wanted to just basically record myself jumping start to finish to a whole song so someone can have the whole song, right?

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

Um, and I just triple checked, like, I'm obviously gonna use copyright music. Is that okay? Yes, it's fine. It's gonna be content ID claimed or whatever. I'm not gonna be able to monetize on that video. That's fine though, as long as it you know doesn't hurt my channel.

SPEAKER_03

You just don't want to be blocked from everybody else.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I don't want my channel to be like deleted or when I I like double triple check this and it's gonna be fine. And you can you've what you watch drum channels all the time, and they're always Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, there's drumming channels I watch have over a million subscribers and they make no revenue because they're just doing cover songs, so they do Patreon and stuff.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. So, um but the thing is I was thinking is like the way that I've been recording my jump videos is just with my phone and a tripod. Sure. And I just aim it towards me and that's it. And I was like, okay, I feel like there's an opportunity here to actually use a camera. And like, I know I could just use my vlog camera, but I feel like you can step it up a little bit. We're gonna be doing some anamorphic jumping to make it really like how do I take this next level? You know, where it's not just like yeah, like my takeaway for the person is here's a good song, here's the beats per minute. Um, you know, I I wanted to add a note on the screen of like because this song is faster, I'm going to be drilling like these moves. So you can try that if you use this song. Um, so you know, you don't even have to watch me, but why not? Like, what if what if there was a way to make it like look visually really cool with very little like obviously I'm jumping. I don't want to like I don't want to edit.

SPEAKER_03

Right. You can't have five cameras rolling and cut between.

SPEAKER_00

I don't want to edit, I just want one.

unknown

Excuse me.

SPEAKER_00

Let's see. I want one start to finish sparkles in my nose. Oh.

SPEAKER_03

Um okay, so you're looking for just a simple way to make things look cool. And you're wondering what that is? Like how to make a video look. So the prompt, what prompt would you be typing into Tom GPT?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, see, I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

Um that's that's why I I couldn't figure out like how to make a video look cooler or look more interesting.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, but it's like action-oriented, right? So it's like you know, this shot looks really cool, but we're not moving, we're sitting here and talking. Um, you know. I've noticed that like when I jump fast, like the rope looks weird because I don't know if it's a little bit. That's your frame rate, yeah. Yeah, your shutter speed. This is where I'm not in. And I don't think chat is gonna chat GPT is gonna.

SPEAKER_03

Who knows? It's gonna be like go into Tom's room and so like yeah, I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

Just I wanted to see your feedback on like how can we make a a how could we just make it better?

SPEAKER_03

This is not short form though, this is horizontal video, right? Okay. My first thing, just because I'm just thinking of what would be fun things that I haven't seen in the what would be fun to do. Um, obviously, switching from a phone to like a dedicated camera is big because you'll end up with a better lens.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

So, not that the only way to make something look good is to have shallow depth of field with a blurry background, but in this case, I think it would actually look really cool. Like you'll be clear and focused, your rope will be clear and focused, but a little bit of black background blur just makes things look nice.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Um, so there's a bunch of different ways to do that. We can use the correct shutter speed so that way it's the rope looks like correct motion. This happens in aviation YouTube all the time because people set up GoPros and then like and the propeller looks like it bends in this weird way. Yeah. And I found there's one channel, it's called SoCal Flying Monkey. And the the guy who runs it is a director of photography in like LA. And so he has all these videos about how to set up cameras so you get like proper motion blur, and his always look really nice, even though it's just using old GoPros. So getting those settings would look good. Then to like take it up even further, what I would do is I'm leaning towards just seeing what it would look like with an anamorphic lens. It would be unnecessary. I don't know that you would necessarily need to letterbox it, although if you because you can film with an anamorphic lens, but it doesn't have to be super like widescreen, like you could just crop in like normal, but you'll have like lens flares and that kind of cool stuff. Or you could actually keep it anamorphic with like the bars, but the bars is where you could put notes, like it'd be blank space to put and they don't have to even be black, they could be white bars, it could be like almost like an overlay. Oh, if you remember in the early 2000s, like every hip-hop video was letterboxed with white bars, they looked really cool. They looked kind of cool, honestly.

SPEAKER_00

I totally forgot about that. That was quite cool. Letterboxing white bars. Wow.

SPEAKER_03

That was like premium letterboxing.

SPEAKER_00

Look at him, he's so happy.

SPEAKER_03

I think it looked cool. Uh, I mean, we're not gonna be on a yacht or anything, but otherwise, it's pretty cool. And then lights, you know, we have like a bunch of Pavo tubes and NAN lights. Not that you know, you gotta be in like some techno dystopia or something while you're jumping, but I think I think something along those lines. And if you wanted camera movement, putting the camera on the just the motorized slider where it's doing a nice slow back and forth would be cool.

SPEAKER_00

I like this. Wow. See, talk about taking it an idea to the next level.

SPEAKER_03

Those are my ideas.

SPEAKER_00

I'm pretty sure your ideas are gonna be better than whatever chat is gonna come up with. I mean, I not you chat, but chat.

SPEAKER_03

Whatever this chat's gonna come up with.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. This chat is all AI. Keith says, still waiting for Heather to make a video on how she did that cinematic portion of the El Gato green screen video. You know how I did it?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's not that's half the story. I filmed it, but I had nothing to do with the editing of it. So that was all that was all her.

SPEAKER_00

That was fun though.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Uh you can play copyright music without getting strikes.

SPEAKER_03

You get because there's a difference between like a strike and a I don't know what it's called.

SPEAKER_00

A content ID claim.

SPEAKER_03

A claim and a strike.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. So uh basically, if you play like a Madonna song, her record label will claim the copyright. But then what they'll do typically is they'll just start, you can't monetize that video. They will.

SPEAKER_03

So then the ad revenue goes to them, basically.

SPEAKER_00

Um sometimes there's geographical restrictions, like the copyright doesn't allow it to be played in certain countries or whatever, but um most of the time uh a content ID claim is not the same thing as a copyright strike. I think a strike is when like they re like they tell you to take action or whatever and you don't.

SPEAKER_03

Probably because you uploaded like an episode of The Office or somebody else's video or and yeah, I yeah. Yeah, like if you uploaded one of my videos and I clicked the claim button and you didn't do anything, you would get a strike.

SPEAKER_00

So it shouldn't hurt your channel.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I mean it shouldn't, because when I was teaching broadcast, when we did our daily broadcast every day, um, before it actually started, there was like an eight-minute passing period while kids were switching classes, and so we would just play like a title screen with a bunch of music, and so in the hallways and in the classrooms, there'd be like music playing, it's all copyrighted, whatever the student DJ wanted to play that day, um, which would obviously be claimed. And then I would go back like at during lunch and trim off the beginning. But we would get copyright claims every day, and even in the broadcast we use copyrighted music all the time, and for the most part, sometimes it did get blocked in different countries, but for the most part, it was like, oh, copyright claims it's fine, it doesn't matter. We did that for years.

SPEAKER_00

Okay, so here's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna go into chat GPT. Okay, okay, here it is.

SPEAKER_03

Like this question you had asked it.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, so I had asked it, um, give me some ideas for YouTube videos, and it actually came up with I mean, actually every single time I've used chat GPT, if you don't know what this is, this is um, this is like the AI that everyone's talking about right now. It's really awesome. Like it, it's it's so impressive. Um, it will just, you know, it'll just do everything for you, basically. So I typed in, give me some ideas for YouTube videos, product reviews, tutorials, travel vlogs, fitness routines. I didn't, you know, narrow it down.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, this is almost just like types of YouTube videos.

SPEAKER_00

But look, check this out. Um let's see. Give me a Deer Chat script for a YouTube video about how to add subtitles to your YouTube videos. Ooh. I just uploaded this video.

SPEAKER_03

Hey everyone, in this video, I'll be showing you how to add subtitles to your YouTube videos. Adding subtitles to your videos can greatly enhance the accessibility of your content, making it easier for viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing to follow along. So let's get started.

SPEAKER_00

Step one, transcribe your video. The first step in adding subtitles to your YouTube videos to transcribe the audio. You can do this manually by tapping out the world to yourself, or you can use an online transcription service. One of the most popular transcription services is Rev.com, which charges around a dollar per minute of audio. Once you have a transcription, uh save it as a text file or SRT file.

SPEAKER_03

So you love this, right? And this is how you script all your videos now?

SPEAKER_00

No. No, but like this is insane because literally this is kind of like it's this is totally usable.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

Upload your video to YouTube. That's what that okay. This is if you watch my video and you read this script, it's gonna be like you totally use this, didn't you?

SPEAKER_03

Because it's I did not but they're just this is just step-by-step instructions.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, select the subtitle, but it's crazy that it knows how to do that. Choose your subtitle language, add subtitles to your video, preview and publish, promote your subtitle video conclusion. That's it for the video. Adding subtitles to your two videos is a great way to make your content more accessible and inclusive. I hope you found this tutorial helpful. If you have any questions or comments, please leave them below. Thanks for watching. Oh, the fact that it knows how to say that, like, please leave them below.

SPEAKER_03

Like, comment, and subscribe.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, so anyway, a chat has been like really impressive, and I and I can see why there's so much like, oh my gosh, this tool is gonna be like totally life-changing, and you know, it's gonna make everything easier because it just basically it comes up, I feel like it solves a big pain point for a lot of content creators, which is like this part. And then, you know, obviously you could take this and make it your own and iterate it. And even if we all had the same prompt, the way that we all make this YouTube video is gonna look totally different. So that's cool. Um, but now I want to put it to the test and kind of give it the same prompt I gave you. Obviously, you're coming at it from your expertise, which is like video.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I also know what equipment is available, so uh so I don't really know how to ask. Like you could do like how do you uh like how do you improve the production quality of a video? How do you increase the production quality of a video? How do you make a video more interesting visually?

SPEAKER_00

Okay, um you get real specific. How would I make a an awesome YouTube video about jump roping? Let's start here. Great question. Here's a script. Hey everyone, welcome to my channel. In this video, I'm gonna show you some awesome jump rope exercises and tricks that will get your heart pumping and your body moving. Step one, basic jump rope technique. Step two, intermediate, but this is a script.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, this is um womp, womp. It's not what we intended.

SPEAKER_00

It's still pretty good though.

SPEAKER_03

No, I mean it's it's a cool. Oh, and then it's even telling you to cool down and stretch.

SPEAKER_00

Look at that.

SPEAKER_03

Thanks for watching.

SPEAKER_00

It's a fun and effective way to get your heart rate up.

SPEAKER_03

Uh give a thumbs up, subscribe to my channel for more fitness content.

SPEAKER_00

Let's see. Um, how let's see. How could I improve the the production quality of a YouTube video about jump robing? I don't know if we're gonna get there. Here are some tips. Lighting. Make sure you have good lighting that is consistent throughout the video. Audio, clear audio is essential for quality video. Use a good quality microphone, camera quality, use a high quality camera smartphone. Yeah, background, editing, graphics, and text.

SPEAKER_03

This is sort of just like make a video. I mean, they're not wrong, but it's like yes, this is it doesn't it's not gonna have the um you know how can I make a video more visually uh interesting? Because you're not really worried about the audio, you're just overlaying music, so you don't you don't need to worry about a mic or a boom arm or anything.

SPEAKER_00

Let's see. You use a different camera, use different camera angles.

SPEAKER_03

Incorporate B-roll footage, yes.

SPEAKER_00

It's crazy that this thing knows this like this lingo. Use motion graphics and make sure.

SPEAKER_03

Experiment with color, that's cool. Have color can have a powerful impact on the mood and tone of your video. Use color grading to create a consistent visual style. Um, text overlays. Alright, I mean, but that's all very broad.

SPEAKER_00

So here's my point. Here's my point to this. I don't know if you reel it. It's so painful. Are you okay? I'm good. Okay, so here's here, I don't know if you realize this, but the very first thing that you said when I asked you about this, when I asked you for your feedback on my idea, the very first thing that you said was I don't remember how you worded it, but was something like, oh, what I would try to do was how to make it more fun.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

And I think that's the piece that's missing when it comes to AI. Because fun is like so individualized to the creator, everyone's like idea of fun is different. Every the the way that people are gonna execute on like trying to make something more fun, fun is different. So, yes, AI can totally give you scripts and like a lot of content, you know, but to make it more fun, I feel like that is so personal and so um also like setting up setting up lenses and putting camera on a slide, that's really fun for me.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know that that would be fun for you. So, yeah, there is a very like it's not a one-size-fits-all answer.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah. But I'm excited about what you came up with.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it would be fun. We should do that.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, we should do that later today. Um, I tried chat, I had ChatGBT write the script for one video and its data wasn't too bad. Shouldn't I plugged out? How is AI treating you? Yeah, yeah, so like it's it's really exciting, but I still feel like I don't know. I feel like it's hard to I feel like it can feel like um a shortcut, but I feel also in a lot of ways it can be very distracting. Do you know what I mean? Like AR.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, well um I need to find this so I can actually ask.

SPEAKER_00

Because I guess like my whole point in like yeah, go ahead.

SPEAKER_03

I'll be right back.

SPEAKER_00

Is Alexa just talking to you? She's just oh my gosh. Let's see. Ask it how it would make it more fun. Here, let's do it. How could I make a a let's just put a jump rope video more fun? Let's see. Making a jump video more fun is all about injecting energy and excitement into your content. Here are some tips to make your jump rope video more fun. Show off your personality, use music, add challenges. Actually, that's a really good idea. Include friends, see, obs. Use special effects. Okay, it like totally did what you said. Use special effects um to make it more exciting and visually interesting. For example, use slow motion to highlight a particularly difficult jump rope move, or use graphics to show your progress over time.

SPEAKER_03

That's pretty sweet.

SPEAKER_00

That's actually like really awesome. Use props, incorporate props into your jump rope routine to make it more fun and visually interesting. Like glow-in-the-dark jump ropes or jump rope to the beat of a strobe light. That's actually like really good.

SPEAKER_03

Give someone a seizure from your jumping.

SPEAKER_00

That's really good.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, no, it is good.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, that's impressive.

SPEAKER_03

I don't I don't think that's the the thing here. I just I shared something that I don't know if this is even relevant to our discussion right now. Um I feel like that's not aligned properly, but um, this is at the end of Ratatouille, the what is 2007, 2008 Pixar movie. Um, so in 2007, 2008, Motion Capture, which had been around for a while and is still around, had really gone through some breakthroughs. Like if you know, where they put it looks like little ping pong balls all over an actor, and they record the movement and they can take that movement and and put it somewhere. It was huge, and that was where it was like any actor can play any role and all this, you know, all this wacky stuff was sort of happening. And with 3D animation, there's already a misconception that it's easy because you do it with a computer. So you just type in like make ratatouille and then it happens. Whereas the computer is just a tool, and there's still a lot of like hand-done components to digital animation. And when motion capture showed up and it was being portrayed as now, like you know, you just you don't even need to animate anything, it just does it for you. You just record movement and then animate and done. I think it even made that preconception, is that a word, preconceived notion, um, even stronger. So, anyway, long story long, at the end of Ratatouille in the credits, I remember seeing this pop up in the theater, which is a little icon. It's an old like 1950s, 60s style thing that says, our quality assurance guarantee, 100% genuine animation, no motion capture or any other performance shortcuts were used in the production of this film. And that was Pixar's way of saying, like, no, we we still animated every bit, especially if you saw Ratatouille, there's a lot of human, like, there's a lot of things that kind of maybe would have made sense to use motion capture for, and are maybe done so well that they can use motion capture. You they they like could have saved time by doing motion capture, um, but they didn't. And obviously, like motion capture didn't disappear, it just sort of found a place. Like it's used, it's used in all kinds of special effects, video games, like there's a place for it, but it didn't dethrone or like eliminate other animation. It's sort of like it was this big thing, and then it found its place. And I feel like there's a very similar thing with this type of AI stuff where it's like, oh, this just replaces everything right now. But the thing about motion capture, too, like if you watch Ratatouille and you see We're all gonna watch Ratatouille, yeah. It's a good movie, but if you see like the way the animation is, it's not just that it looks like how people move. Part of the reason it's good is because it's it's not how people move, and you can squish and stretch and like exaggerate things in ways that you're not going to get if you're actually using real-life motion. Like, point being the motion capture ended up being very efficient and very like you can do a lot with it and it can be very accurate, but on the artistry creative side of things, it it can't do that because it's just capturing whatever motion it captured. And so you go into the animation side of things, and that's where you have a professional artist who's going to then like create something that looks really special. I feel like this is very similar in a way where um, I mean, it can do like incredibly impressive stuff, but it is it's never going to come at it with the the experience and perspective of a person, even if it sort of seems really similar, like the reasons why you're doing something. I don't know if that makes sense or not, but that's that's sort of like I feel like this is a very big thing that seems like a very, you know, the be-all, end-all to everything right now, but ultimately, hopefully, honestly, I think it will it will find its place as one of many tools in a toolbox and not the only way to do everything.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah. Um, Tech Auto TV says, I found Chat GPT 4 to be better at writing scripts than the free Chat GPT 3 that's available. I also ask it to write the script in the same style as the world-known creator, like license.

SPEAKER_03

That's funny.

SPEAKER_00

Um, Kane Trouble says, joining in late, but I found it most helpful for giving point summaries more than full scripts. Hey, Raphael. Text prompt a tatoue.

SPEAKER_03

I like that. Um, Raphael had a video today, it was like the future, the two futures of Final Cut Pro, and he was sort of talking about like from his point of view where he thinks Final Cut might go. Yeah. And one of the futures did involve like AI stuff, but I thought it was really interesting because if you know me, it's probably not a surprise that I'm like maybe not 100% psyched about everyone relying on AI to create everything.

SPEAKER_00

Couldn't you can't tell.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, if you couldn't tell. Um, but I also it'd be foolish to be dismissive of it.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And Rafael was pointing out like really cool AI tools that could be incorporated more effectively into software in the future to do stuff like clean up noise in the in a way you have a grainy image, and now it it doesn't look like right now you can clean that up with stuff, but it looks airbrushed and weird, like making it look correct and natural, making it really easy to isolate a subject from a background, or like you know, I filmed a whole thing. I think it happened again. I filmed a whole thing for a um for somebody else yesterday, and I had a spot of dog slaver on my shirt the whole time. At least it'd be kind of cool to just click that, and then even though I'm moving, it just very naturally is gone. Like um, you know, that kind of stuff. I think there's a lot of room for these sorts of tools. Green Zumens. Some robots are friendly.

SPEAKER_00

Have you touched on AI-generated pictures for thumbnails or b-roll?

SPEAKER_03

I haven't.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I see I use AI for every single one of my thumbnails because Canva uses AI to use the background remover. Oh, you're right. Hey. Yeah, so I've been using it for years, but I I just I think like I don't know. I like how here's my idea, Tom. What do you think of this idea? You chime in, then I chime in, then you chime in, and like our final product is something totally, you know, I couldn't have come up with it myself. And I think like that, but if you haven't seen the discussion with anyone else in the chat, you would love a different idea too. Yeah, I I like that. I like I don't know. I feel like I don't know. I see how like for tutorial videos for like educational content, it can I feel like do a lot of the you know get over blank page syndrome.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, oh yeah, yeah. I think that's a good yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I I think this okay. As someone who's made what 500 videos, you've done this video. 7,000 videos.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

If you can if someone gave you like unlimited money, or you can create something that like just did not exist and it would be like totally free, you could just like snap your fingers and it would appear.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_00

What is something that you would want that would that you think would actually really make a positive difference on your creative workflow?

SPEAKER_03

Okay, this is like such a big question to ask. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

The thing that popped into my head Like what would your AI equivalent be? Because I feel like a lot of people have to be.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know if this is an answer, but this is a direction I went, and so we're going with it. Tactile video editing. That's what I will call it.

SPEAKER_00

So like straight up knobs and like you you turn like the oh because that that that is a thing which is very, very cool.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, that's an old school thing that's now coming back. Um, but almost think like Tony Stark's. Okay, so but I don't care if it's floating in the air or if if it's on a screen, but where it really feels like you're building with blocks. Like I want to cut something instead of trying to click and drag, it feels like I can just pick this thing up and move it here, and I'm gonna do that, and now I'm gonna just like why, why?

SPEAKER_00

Why do you think that would improve your process?

SPEAKER_03

So when you when you said improve your process, I I immediately just went to like the the bottleneck for a lot of what I do can oftentimes be a computer because it has to process files and render out video and add effects. And fortunately, like I have a really good computer where it kind of I don't have I don't hit those walls that often. Um, it can whatever footage I throw at it, it can play it pretty smoothly. Sometimes if I add an effect, I need to wait a minute. But that's where I find myself kind of going like or like fighting a little bit is with the software, trying to get the computer to do the thing I'm thinking.

SPEAKER_00

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

And so if so that was where I went, was like, oh, if it was literally like an infinite speed computer that there is no lag, it's everything is real time all the time. If you want to suddenly make make this clip black, you just boop, and then it's black instantly, and there's no like render time, no anything. But then it's like, well, why not go one step further? And for me, doing things like tactally, physically, is really nice. Being able to actually like grab, I mean, just a giant touch screen, whatever, with haptic feedback. Just grab this video clip and stack it on this one and shorten these ones up over here and move it over there, bring in a title, like that would be that would be really fun.

SPEAKER_00

Look at you. Look how excited you are.

SPEAKER_03

Final Cut Pro. I don't know, whatever the next one would be.

SPEAKER_00

See, it's funny because I'm trying to like, what would my answer to this question be?

SPEAKER_03

That was probably not the question you asked, but that was my answer.

SPEAKER_00

No, it was. It's just like, what's one thing? Like, if you can have a thing that you feel would help your process, it doesn't have to make it faster, but just like whatever you think.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. You know that was where my brain went. So where would yours go?

SPEAKER_00

I feel like this is kind of an unfair answer, but this is where I'm going with it. So I'm gonna go with it. Um honestly, the thing that I feel that I would want, right? Like if I could have a wish, okay, this is what it would be. It would be to have a physical co-working space of other content creators that I could go to with my laptop, everyone else can go there with their gear, and like, yeah, we can work on our own stuff, but I just I I so want I I miss the like bumping into each other and then the opportunities of collaboration that would not have existed otherwise. You know what I mean? Like, I really miss that, and I know we um, you know, thankfully I we have that because we live together, but like it it I miss that about working in in a co-working space where it was just like you have a conversation and boom, that that would just like set me thinking to this whole other thing. I woke up not even realizing that morning. Yeah. Um and I I miss like being able to flesh out an idea.

SPEAKER_03

Not flesh it out.

SPEAKER_00

Flesh out an idea. Um, I miss that. Like I I I would want that. I want I would want like you know, for whatever, if I'm just making wishes, like everyone can get there by just snapping their fingers. So like you can do tele teleportation, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And then you just go through the tube.

SPEAKER_00

That'd be cool. That'd be so cool. So it has nothing to do because I I have everything I need.

SPEAKER_03

Tools-wise, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I don't, you know, it's I'm the bottleneck. I just have to do it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I guess that's I guess what we both did is we found a bottleneck and then tried to find the solution to the bottleneck.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Anyway, let's see. Hello, hello everybody. Um machines are learning, humans are playing. Vault says, my maker is building a diorama of an old store and is using AI to clean up the old photos to see what items are on the shelves. That's way cool.

SPEAKER_03

That's like, I guess I probably wouldn't be admissible in court, but it's like crime scene investigation. Where they say enhance, but you could actually enhance it.

SPEAKER_00

AI is not just generation. AI has been suggesting videos, removing noise, and many tasks for us for years.

SPEAKER_03

I'm curious though, so that brings up a good point. Is any of this actually AI? Or is this just what we're calling it? Because I don't I kind of like when I think of AI, I'm thinking of like Bicentennial Man, the movie with Robin Williams, where like the robot becomes a person over many years, it becomes like Or it becomes sentient. Yeah, and and aware. And it's it's not it's not just a curation or an amalgamation of things, or like very quickly combining a bunch of processes, but it's it's pushing that through experience.

SPEAKER_00

I feel like I feel like bison ten old man and like Veronica, whatever her name was from irobot and like yeah, Terminator. I feel like I feel like I feel like artificial intelligence is defined. Like there's a definition for it, and I I feel like those are one type, but I don't think that's what we're talking about.

SPEAKER_03

I'm curious. No, I know. I don't know. I'm not saying that I actually would want those because those are scarier. Volt's not, but um I mean I'm just curious. I'm curious as to when it stops being just really good programming and when it becomes an actual intelligence. Like a smart home where you're like, the smart home's actually kind of dumb. Like it's it's just a real. I'm curious. I really don't know.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, no, I don't know. Yeah, I'm not gonna answer the question. Um, I'm testing an AI tool right now that is blowing my mind. It's as close to an assistant editor as a machine can currently be. Okay, if you that's high words coming from you, Raphael. I'm curious. Kane says, I like being able to generate backgrounds, patterns, etc., which can then be edited and composited to create the final.

SPEAKER_03

Nice.

SPEAKER_00

Um, underrated chat GPT capability to describe what you are trying to accomplish within any software like Photoshop and then ask it to create a step-by-step instruction.

SPEAKER_03

This is which it's not always 100% accurate, but you and I have found it to be like it's really nice to just have ad-free Google essentially, because you can just be like, oh yeah, like how to make chocolate chip. And it's just like cool. Here's no ads.

SPEAKER_00

No long. One wicked story to fit more ads in. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

It's just like how to make bread. Sweet.

SPEAKER_00

Um, audio design does this AI dopnutness. People are conflating AI versus AGI and adaptive versus generative. Your iPhone photos get AI adjusted, and IG TTYT filters use AI too. FCP 11. Minority Report Editing. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

That was from like what 25 years ago?

SPEAKER_00

I know, but so crazy because I feel like it was so futuristic. Like to this day, I feel like it would hold.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, honestly, just editing on Final Cut on a MacBook is futuristic right now. Like, I'm not gonna lie.

SPEAKER_00

Uh, what if we got two AI to tacos on another? I feel like that would happen once.

SPEAKER_03

I don't think just become super racist like immediately, isn't that what happened?

SPEAKER_00

I used to own that exact space how to just it was called the Greenhouse Innovation Hub. Don't do it, cost me hundreds of thousands. Oh dang, that's crazy. I would have loved to hang out there, though. It sounds, I mean, if you were running it, sounds awesome. Um, you nailed it. This is just code with a huge database, not sentient. I now identify as a singularity. We all do. Is your brother still doing YouTube animated content? He is. You can check it out at Kev Kev and Ram. K-E-V-A-N-D-R-A-M. He's almost at 100,000, huh? 85,000. 84,000.

SPEAKER_03

Wow, that's crazy. Good for him.

SPEAKER_00

Um, yeah, no, he's killing it. The book of James Cameron tells us that Skynet was just code until it became aware.

SPEAKER_03

Doc says I need an explanation of AI because I'm missing a lot. I well, I'll this is where I'll keep my mouth shut. This is where I'm gonna get in trouble.

SPEAKER_00

Oh yeah. Well, I guess like we'll just because the whole point of this, I guess what I was trying to get at with this particular topic is like how how do we as creators continue to make better content? And I know that's like we can go from any angle, but like how do you it's kind of like okay, so Tom and I, if you haven't noticed, um, because I think we've been we've made it evident everywhere, but we're super into hockey now.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

Um, we have a uh local team that's in the AHL, which is like the minor league for um the American Hockey League. Yeah, for the NHL. Um, and we have season tickets. But one of the things that we talk about all the time is like, well, one of the things I'm curious about is like, are you just this athletically skilled always? Or like, do you as part of your job train to be a better hockey player? Or do you become a better hockey player because you I mean, because you're obviously training all the time. Yeah, but was there like an initial like predisposition to be so like my my the YouTube version of that is like, you know, sure there are gonna be people who are like I don't want to say like more creative than others, but um it just comes easier to I guess it comes easier, right? There's that part, then there's also the part like what space are you in, right? Or if you figured out a formula, like I I can think of like binging with babish where you just recreate food from popular TV, like you have an endless amount of material and ideas, so you and you have a formula where you just yeah, you create a formula, you can just plug in a thing, it'll never end, yeah. Like that's awesome. So some people have cracked that code. Um, but then also like you know, how how do you execute on like this is the best version of this idea, and like now I'm just gonna go, or like how do you know you can't make it better? You know what I mean? I know this is like a super long conversation, and we have 10 more minutes, but oh that's where I was just that's where I was going with it.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, well that's interesting. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00

I mean, that's I'm the worst person in the world to ask about this because but I feel like you're the best person because you've never missed a freaking week. Like you've done 400, we come up with different numbers every time. Like 7,000 videos. You made a crap ton of videos, and you like the you have a system that has never broken. Like you have the c you have what binging for babish has.

SPEAKER_03

Like you have a formula, the fame and fortune.

SPEAKER_00

You have like you have the thing. And so, like, my question to you is especially for someone who like tries to experiment, you know, like at what point are you like, okay, this is like I'm done brainstorming. It feels good to go with what I got.

SPEAKER_03

Way earlier than I should, probably.

SPEAKER_00

I mean, I guess like also because a lot of your content is teaching content, it really is just about getting the point across. Like, here's the takeaway. And yeah, I mean it's about explaining it in a in a in a way that's like if I were writing a narrative short film script, I it'd probably be it.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, I'm not even joking, like it would be probably different. Like, I would really want to look at okay, I have these storylines, how are they intersecting? Does it make sense where this got like this ends up here? Does it make sense how it got there? And it would take a lot of time to like go through that and have it not only make sense but be interesting, be meaningful. So that's a that's one type of doing it. The thing that I do, I don't think needs that as much. And if anything, I do think I do think benefits from less of it from a little roughness, from a little imperfections. It's kind of part of yeah. Sometimes, you know, like with putting goofy wordplay into videos and stuff, there are there are times where there's the most obvious like pun to make in the world, and I just miss it, which I try not to let happen, but sometimes it happens, and it just and even as I watch the video back, I think like, oh I'm gonna say I didn't say that. Why didn't I say that? I should have said that. And then which I guess you could say, like, I should have paid attention to that, the video would have been better if I did it, but then it's funny because people jump in, they go, like, I can't believe you didn't say blah blah blah blah blah in a fun way, not in a like weird comment way.

SPEAKER_00

Like they make the pun.

SPEAKER_03

And it's like, I don't think that's gonna happen if everything is perfectly like incubated all the time, I guess. Yeah, hockey's like Well, Raphael's from Canada, I think it has to be for Yeah, it's in your blood.

SPEAKER_00

Genetics are a big part, but the drive to master the skill is what sets people apart. Yeah, because and there's yeah, because there's it's interesting because like I feel like with content creation, it's a skill, but it's it's also like creativity.

SPEAKER_03

So Well, I I can think back to being a teacher, and I would have students who were who just pick things up so fast.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And and just sort of it almost seemed like they did have a natural skill for it. Like everything they shot looked good, everything they edited looked good, but they didn't really have the drive. And so it'd be like, I know you're gonna make I would almost prefer to like select like a less skilled student to work on something because they had the drive, and they would they would put so much into it and really push themselves and be reliable, whereas sometimes the skilled person they would never push themselves to do anything better, they would end up sometimes being unreliable because they didn't really care as much, and it's like so. If I were only looking for the best end result, I would go with that person, but that's interesting. Yeah, it's almost like the the less skilled person won out because of the drive.

SPEAKER_00

I like this. I think the new better content has to do with individuality, the you of YouTube.

SPEAKER_03

Whatever tools you want to use to mash that together. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I love this. Um, there are no predispositions, everything is learnable. The people, hockey players, or creators who put in the work make it look easy, but it is all hard work. This strive to be better.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, people are so good at something they make it look so easy.

SPEAKER_00

I know the eternal struggle of the urge to create and not knowing what to create. Yes. Well, see, that's why I solved the problem. I just create whatever you want. You what create whatever you want. You're for you.

SPEAKER_03

But if you really don't know where to begin, that is where I I think curing like a writer's block thing is a good use of like the chat tools where it's yeah, like okay. What are 10 YouTube ideas for videos about cameras? And then you're just it's not even that you use those, but that might spark an idea to go, oh exactly sparking the idea. Yeah, like I think that's a really good idea. If you're just at the wall, that's the place to go. The thing that scares me is when it does become the thing of like, okay, write a script for a YouTube video about this topic. Okay, copy, paste, record. Hey, today, welcome to my video about whatever this thing says. Like, and I feel like there's because it's it's new tools and people, I feel like there's a lot of that happening, and I that I'm obviously not a fan of for many, many reasons.

SPEAKER_00

Well, I feel like I I again I think it's the execution of it because I feel like if you know if we all took this prompt, like we're all gonna execute on it differently.

SPEAKER_03

And I feel like the person who let me can we go back to chat real quick? Uh it's share screen. Yeah, okay. So um, let's see. Um I don't know. It please I want to be polite. Hold on. What am I where am I typing? Where are you going bop? Please um create five video ideas for five ideas. Sorry, I'm trying to be like too polite. Five ideas for it's not gonna judge you for how you talk. We don't know YouTube videos about um magic tricks. I don't know, something totally different. Sure, here are five ideas. Number one, card magic tricks. Okay, I would just levitation. I was just trying to get random ideas here. So to kind of go with off what you said, card magic tricks. Okay, create a series of videos where you teach, let's say create a video where you teach a different where you teach a card magic trick. Can be beginner-friendly or more advanced, you could showcase different techniques and techniques. Okay. Um little half pig there, but sure. If we took any one of these prompts and you made that video and I made that video, yeah, we would make very different videos. Yes. We might even choose entirely different card tricks, right?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

But if I did like um write a script of how to do the card through a glass magic trick, it's going to be much more specific. And even if we took that script, reading the script the same, the way the video is produced would still be different. But I think it'd be like totally different. But there'd be like obviously like less of a difference, and and it's like the more specific you get with this, then the less room for differences there are.

SPEAKER_00

But I think that's the thing that like people. I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna say people. I keep doing that because I don't want to speak for anyone but myself. But like even if I were to get super specific, like tell me the recipe for like chocolate chip cookie. I feel like the the coming up with the content might be the hard part, and then coming up with the creative part, like, how do I make this super freaking fun? That's like, all right, cool. Let's do it.

SPEAKER_03

A fun video would be like AI recipes tested. Take this idea if you want. Yeah, take it. Take it. You you ask, like, what is the best chocolate chip cookie recipe? What is the best cake recipe?

SPEAKER_00

There is a channel right here.

SPEAKER_03

And then you just follow the recipe and see like you follow only that step by step, and you see what the result is.

SPEAKER_00

That would be fun. This is great. Tom's gonna come out with a new channel. It's gonna be called Tom Buck Bakes.

SPEAKER_03

Buckbakes?

SPEAKER_00

Buckbakes. Baking Buck.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I was like USP. I don't have any packages scheduled for delivery today.

SPEAKER_00

I think it's easy to create easier to create from your expertise. Tom's videos stem from his expertise, and you never run out of videos.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, if you're if you're expect I guess this kind of goes into what is it, the um the eka guy thing?
