![]() Long story short, when we're not out doing “stuff”, we're working on the Channel. There's a lot more involved on the business side (partnerships, etc). Those are just the things related to a video. About 20 hours a week is spent just managing social media. That part goes on every day, but is most busy on Monday, after a video release. Once a video is released, we read every comment, reply where appropriate, answer emails, comments on social media, etc. Then, the video, blog post, and social media posts are written and everything is scheduled for release. That part is a real art, and she has gotten better and better over time in my humble opinion! That process usually includes 2-3 watch-thru sessions with both of us, making tweaks, then a final watch before uploading.Īfter upload comes writing the blog post and description for youtube, adding all of the metadata, links and so on. Once everything is “in the can”, Tara starts the editing process to tell the story of what we're trying to convey. We run 4 cameras for every ride! Then the “talk” portion has to be filmed also. Sometimes the video is filmed while we're out seeing a new place, going on a ride, etc. Sometimes the filming takes place over several days for projects and such. That plan can take between an hour and up to several hours depending on the detail and research involved.įollow that with several hours of filming, depending on what it is. ![]() She has gotten faster over the last couple of years, but it just takes a lot of time to make a good video! I've seen Tara spend a whole day just finding the right music! But, editing is only part of the equation when it comes to an overall channel.Įvery video starts with a plan. If you don't know, Tara does all of our editing and takes great pride in the quality of our videos. For us, a 30-minute video takes about 40 hours of editing. ![]() ![]() Most professional editors will say about 1 to 1.5 hours per minute of edited video, and that's about right. Editing is one of the most time-consuming aspects of running a youtube channel for sure! Editing will take more or less time depending on how particular one is about audio, color grading, timing, etc.
