  1. Doom scrolling on mute has made us forget how powerful sound really is pretty visuals grab your attention but it sound that keeps you
  2. hooked I'm going to share the three sound design techniques that took me 16 years to master but it only take you a few minutes to learn using these three
  3. alone will instantly upgrade your work but for each technique I'm going to share a secret cheat code that made the biggest difference in my work so you
  4. won't want to miss any of these my sound effects used to sound really flat and boring it wasn't necessarily the sounds that I used but
  5. it was how I used it now the best example I can give is a whoosh a single whoosh can be okay for matching visuals of a small
  6. movement but when there's a big dramatic one a single whoosh isn't quite enough finding a deeper whoosh will help but still lacks
  7. weight thinking about sounds in different frequencies is what solved the problem [Music]
  8. so imagine layering a cake where each layer adds a unique flavor except on an audio Spectrum it looks more like this now by layering sounds with different
  9. frequencies you can achieve a much more full Dynamic Sound instead of scrolling endlessly for the right sound effects thinking in
  10. layers puts you miles ahead now the cheat code for using this technique is applying it outside of sound effects like with your dialogue and your music I
  11. used to throw my dialog track right onto my timeline and then lower the gain of my background music and just call it a day but ever since I saw a tutorial from
  12. my buddy Dave I've been using this technique he shared in every video I've ever edited since I've learned it instead of using the DSR effect for its
  13. intended purpose you can use it to carve out a pocket in the mid- frequencies of your music
  14. track your dialogue naturally sits in that pocket and you can always EQ it to cut off the low and high ends for a better fit but this technique gives each
  15. element its own space resulting in a fuller mix a lot of you have asked me where I get my sound effects from and my go-to answer has always been art list
  16. but a secret weapon I've been using for years is soundpacks from Happy editing I'm really excited that the sponsoring this video and I want to show you how I
  17. use their packs to make my videos stand out first let's have a listen of this promo cut using sound effects that's scattered across different sources and
  18. genres [Music]
  19. so it sounds pretty good but it does feel a little bit safe because I'm using the same set of sounds that I would for any video I work on having a broad
  20. library of sound effects is amazing when you're working on a lot of different genres of videos but if you're working on an athletic commercial and you're
  21. using the same sound effects that you would for a wedding video or corporate video you're not going to get the best results now let's replace the sounds
  22. with ones from Happy editing's transition sound effects pack this pack covers all the category of sounds that I frequently use when I'm editing like
  23. risers hits and whooshes especially whooshes let's take a listen he the difference the sound matches the visual aesthetic and feels
  24. way more coherent and that's the main tip that I want to share commit to a style instead of mixing random sounds gritty Basse hits aren't going to work
  25. for your corporate videos the same way clean bell dings won't work for your street wear promo soundpacks have been the easiest way for me to keep my style
  26. consistent or to keep a specific video feeling consistent most of the Glitchy sound effects that you hear in my work have been from Happy editing so if you
  27. like the sounds that you heard check out this transition sound effects pack with the link below huge thank you to happy editing for sponsoring this video
  28. keeping this tip in mind the cheat code I'll sometimes use to make my video Stand Out is using sounds that do not not match the visuals this was inspired
  29. by the show Euphoria where the director uses something they call emotional realism the cinematography on the show portrays how the characters feel in
  30. their environment rather than what's literally happening I took that same principle and applied it to sound design so in a video I made called The Vessel
  31. and the filter it's just shots of me making coffee but the message is how making coffee is similar to our creative process as filmmakers to add more weight
  32. to the visuals I replac the literal sounds with only nature sounds coffee grounds breaking became the crackling of icebergs and the swish of coffee
  33. transformed into an ocean crash by limiting myself to only nature sounds and intentionally mismatching the visuals you can create a deeper
  34. experience for your audience okay so let's say you're editing a 30second promo video and you want to use a song that's 3 minutes how do you cut the
  35. music to fit in that video length I had a lot of trouble trimming Down music when I first started because ending a song early felt like just driving and
  36. then suddenly slamming my brakes the remix feature in premere does a pretty good job but most of the time I need more control to fit the visuals or to
  37. emphasize key moments so after watching endless amounts of movie trailers and promo videos I'm going to share my favorite way to transition in and out of
  38. a song If the song you're using doesn't have a natural lead in you can use the beginning beat of the song Reverse it and use it as a riser to
  39. naturally ease into the song If the beginning beat doesn't work you can always try reversing the tail end of the song to use as a riser as
  40. well this method is a great way to introduce a new song in the same video or to get back into a song after a bridge or a quiet moment of the
  41. [Applause] song now the way that I like to get out of a song is adding a Reverb on the final beat all I do is cut before the
  42. next beat hits cut the beginning of the beat Nest it extend the nested sequence by placing something else further down the timeline in this case I just
  43. duplicate that section disable it and move it down further so we don't hear it a second time and then I go back to the main timeline and add a studio Reverb on
  44. it you can play with different presets to find the best fit but usually I like to start out with the Great Hall preset this is without the
  45. [Music] Reverb and this is with the [Music] Reverb sometimes I'll do a little fade
  46. at the end of the original track and then play the Reverb version underneath like this
  47. using these two methods already gets you great and natural sounding results but the cheat code that I use to make it feel absolutely seamless is layering
  48. sound effects on top of these methods so to ease into a track I look for sounds like risers swells or suckback to layer underneath like
  49. this they're also great for getting out of a song to emphasize moments in your videos like this I don't know if you noticed but you
  50. got a crack in your windshield if you want the ending of your song to hit harder don't be afraid to add these sounds as well and even impacts slams or
  51. hits to wrap it all up with a bang the quality of my sound design improved drastically after applying
  52. these three techniques so let me know in the comments if they helped you as well [Music]
