YouTube videos
Your explanation is the reason people pressed play. Cut the restarts, show what you mean and give the best moments room to land.
Editing plans for
the videos you make.
Practical editing plans for the things you record: what to cut, what to show and what to keep.
Tutorials & lessons
A good tutorial gives people time to understand, not just time to watch. Tighten the explanation without cutting out the action.
Solo video podcasts
One voice can carry a whole episode. Remove the distractions without polishing away the pauses, warmth and personality.
Product reviews
The best part of a review is what you noticed. Put your explanation and your own product footage together so viewers can judge for themselves.
Choose by the part you need to protect.
Teaching a step? Start with the tutorial plan. It keeps a hand movement or screen action visible even when the narration pauses.
Making a claim? Use the product review plan to keep evidence and qualifications together. A shorter sentence is not better if it changes what you actually observed.
Talking through an idea? The YouTube and solo podcast plans help you decide whether a restart, reflection or aside belongs in the finished story.
These plans are for recordings led by one speaker. For a specific technique, see the editing guides. To find and cut a spoken passage, read about text-based video editing.
