Hey 👋 It’s Kyle the Video Guy here to show you a little BTS on how I created my submission to the Daniel Schiffer Edit My Video Challenge. Here’s a step by step of how I edited my video for the challenge:

1. Reviewed the assets and started brainstorming creative ideas on a whiteboard.

2. Mapped out how exactly I would achieve this edit.

3. Gathered stock footage from Storyblocks to supplement Daniel’s footage and fill in some of the gaps of the story I was trying to tell.

4. When I decided to green-screen, I knew I needed a static shot, but I couldn't find one that I liked enough so I settled with this simple motion forward. There would be some parallax to deal with but still much easier to film.

5. I set up the green screen and took a frame of the spaceship interior as an overlay for reference on the Atomos Ninja V monitor, and tried to match the perspective with the height and focal length of the camera the best I could.

6. I tracked the motion of the spaceship footage with Mocha Pro by Boris FX, then imported the tracking data into After Effects. After that I keyed out the footage of my roommate and I and put us into the scene. The track isn't perfect so it took some manual scaling.

7. Then I added some distortion, glow, and color effects onto smoke overlays I found on Storyblocks and put the footage into 3D space and changed the blending mode. Then I rendered everything out.

8. I watched through and set markers on the sequence for every sound I could imagine then went onto Storyblocks and found every sound I needed almost instantly. I threw those in and rendered everything out one more time.

2. After making some final edits, I submitted my video!
