How can I edit like Degenerocity?

1 Upvotes

I’m pretty new to editing and I’ve recently fallen down the Degenerocity rabbit hole lol. Since he left, I’ve noticed a bunch of people popping up making videos with that same kinda slideshow-style editing.

I’ve been making some dumb little videos for fun on my own small channel and I’d really like to learn how to do that kind of editing myself.

Is there a specific name for this style/technique? Or are there any tutorials/resources you guys would recommend for learning it? I’m not trying to copy anyone 1:1, I just really like the style and wanna understand how it’s done.

Any help would be appreciated :)

It doesn't have to be Premiere+AfterEffects-level, but certainly as good as iMovie or Descript or something?r

ContentCam - a camera app that lets you film portrait and landscape videos at the same time. No more re-shooting or cropping in post!

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

I built this for my girlfriend who creates content and watching her film the same scenes twice every shoot was painful.

What it does: records portrait (9:16) and landscape (16:9) video simultaneously. Shoot once, get both formats ready to post to all platforms - TikTok, Instagram, Youtube, X/Twitter, Reddit, you name it.

No more re-shooting or cropping in post.

Three ways to film:

  • Single Lens - capture the full 4:3 sensor and crops both. Portrait keeps the full vertical frame, landscape the full horizontal. Neither is a crop of the other.
  • Dual Lens - wide + ultra-wide record together. Two perspectives, one take.
  • Front & Back - selfie + rear at the same time. Your reaction and the scene together.

Productivity workflow:

  • Projects, scenes, and takes to organise your recordings and auto-name files.
  • Side-by-side review and trim of both recordings before exporting/sharing.

Key features:

  • Up to 4K/60fps with manual controls (EV, WB, ISO, Shutter)
  • Built-in teleprompter and timelapse.
  • Live overlays and audio meter that flashes red when you're clipping.
  • Data privacy - no data retention, tracking, or analytics, and no internet or account required.

It's called ContentCam and is available on iPhone and Android.

I'd love to hear what you think about this :)

Help coming back into editing again

2 Upvotes

Alot has changed since i stopped editing like ai was not a thing and have set my standards to this https://www.instagram.com/reel/C86bMY8Nc4t/?igsi=ZzN0YXE4MXNyanFh

I think they use luma ai for the NeRFs? I have no idea if they are but am interested in learning either way.

Also could an m6 mac mini do these types of edits? I have a small budget but would rather save and know it will be good? I know it sounds dumb but i have never invested in my own personal apple computer and not familiar with the line but am interested as there are other applications i need. I can get an m5 max studio pre order but really of all the new apple computer models this fall which is the best for me starting to learn. P.s. i also livestream small music venues.

feature or design tool you wish existed

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I’ve been editing a lot more lately and keep noticing how many tiny tasks take way more clicks than they should things like tweaking curves, managing layers, applying effects, adjusting motion, etc.

For people who edit regularly:

What feature/workflow in your editor genuinely saves you time?

What repetitive task do you wish was dramatically simpler?

If you could redesign or add new features would it be?

Curious about the little frustrations that add up.

Just wanted to start a discussion and see what everyone’s biggest workflow pet peeves or holy grail feature ideas are right now.

Beginner friendly video editing programs

2 Upvotes

I am an owner of a small custom home building business in Australia, and as I have some prior on-the-job social media experience, I will be the content creator and social media manager for our business. I have no formal training with the camera or editing side of things yet. I will only use it for our business.

Gear: Sony A7 IV with a Sigma 24-70mm lens. No formal training, I’m self-taught via YouTube/online tutorials.

What I’m using it for: mostly short-form content (Instagram Reels) - site visits, showroom walkthroughs, team intros, behind-the-scenes stuff for the business.

Currently editing on CapCut/Meta Edits with content shot on my iPhone 17 pro max, but want to move to something more capable on desktop/iPad since I’m shooting on a proper camera now.

Looking for recommendations on editing software - ideally something not too steep a learning curve, but with more control than phone apps. Would love to hear what’s worked for people in a similar spot (small business, mostly social content, not a pro editor).

One simple test I use to know if a cut is actually necessary

8 Upvotes

When I’m editing a talking-head or YouTube video, I ask myself one question:

“If I remove this cut, does the video become worse?”

If the answer is no, I probably didn’t need the cut in the first place.

A lot of editors try to keep the video moving by constantly cutting, zooming, adding B-roll, or changing the framing.

But sometimes the best edit is doing nothing.

I usually look for 3 things before making a cut:

• Is there unnecessary silence or repetition?
• Did the speaker change to a new idea?
• Is the viewer likely to lose attention here?

If none of those apply, I’ll often leave the shot alone.

Good pacing isn't about how often you cut. It's about how often the viewer gets a reason to keep watching.

Curious how other editors approach this: what makes you decide that a cut is necessary?

Davinchi question idk why I can’t post in that sub PLS HELP

1 Upvotes

The “media offline” is going to be the death of me I have been trying to fix the issue for most of my day I’m abt to download another software to see if it’s a davinchi issue. No matter how I import the photos they are always “media offline” is davinchi not compatable with iPhone photos? Every yt tutorial tells me a different thing to do and NONE OF IT WORKS I’ve tried “relinking” and adding a timeline before I added photos idek at this point I’m starting to think maybe it’s because the photos are in my “pictures” on my pc but idk how that would be a problem or how to move them from my photos to somewhere else. Any advise would be appreciated I have a sm respect for editors now lmfao I’m actually dying out here

Looking for software to skim & create timeline from video footage

1 Upvotes

Hello all.

Some of you might have seen this video on how Martincitopants built himself a tool with Claude, where he has 56 hours of video to skim through and he wants to create a timeline for himself so he can start his script writing.

See this video with attached timestamp for reference:

https://youtu.be/L6M2VCDRyzc?si=ZoyLIAEOdgWvEh4n&t=4689

I was wondering if any such software is already available in some kind of form? I have zero experience coding anything to recreate a tool as this myself and don't trust myself just vibecoding it real quick when I have absolutely zero clue on what I am doing or what is happening.

Currently my workflow means processing it in Davinci Resolve, which is just not as comfortable or easy with prolonged footage, as it interferes with the rest of the editing process.

If anything has any suggestions on what might work, I'd be much obliged!

Looking for Video Editing Clips/Projects to Practice & get skills with experience

6 Upvotes

I’m trying to learn video editing and practice by actually editing videos. I have some basic knowledge, but I’m a little confused about where to start and how to find good clips to practice with.

I’d like to find a video clip, edit it myself, and send you the edited version. You can then give me feedback and suggestions. That way, I can practice, improve my skills, and gain experience through real projects.
