How to edit audio in video using Wondershare Filmora9, a tutorial.
So you clicked on this video because I'm old and I can create YouTube videos, and you think this might be interesting. Or you're just curious about editing audio in videos and want to see how it can be done without spending $600 or more a year, and not require a huge time commitment to learn. Yes you can do this.
On our channel we've focused on How To videos, and so most of my audio is by #voiceover. A few videos are using the dialogue recorded while shooting the video, but most have a voice over track, some will have music interspersed in the video, and some have sound effects and background sounds included to help describe the process to the viewer.
While this is not a comprehensive tutorial of sound editing, what you are about to see and hear is what I do to make the sound of our videos as interesting as possible, so that what is seen is better understood. This can help you to make your first video, or improve on your content.
First some basics. Good sound cannot come from bad equipment, but bad sound can come from good equipment. Learn to use your equipment well, what it's limitations are and you will have a better chance to have good sound.
The editing software I've chosen to use is Wondershare Filmora, currently on version 9. I use this because it's at the right price, it works, is powerful enough to work around most issues that come up, and didn't require hundreds of hours to become proficient with it.
In voice over for tutorials, working from a script is the best way to make sure nothing is forgotten, and the words are what you really want to say. Ad-lib is great for an emotional vlog, but it's not going to give good direction to how to do things.
But working from a script can make for a flat delivery, putting people to sleep or they may click away to the next video. Delivering emotion in the voice over is key, so when recording, stand up and use gestures as you read, practice the script before recording it including gestures, rewrite the script if it feels dead as you read it, include ad-lib asides to liven up the delivery without loosing any instruction. Be excited about what you're saying!
When recording you will make mistakes, or bloopers, they happen accept it, when this happens you have choices to make. Keep going and work around it, keep going and leave it in, stop and try that line again or start the whole thought over. Don't stop recording though, unless you want pause and regroup your thoughts or you want to do a rewrite of the script and come back to recording later. I try to limit my voice over recordings to 1 to 2 minutes of recording, this lets me take a breather, stretch and refocus on the script. Long narrations can be done but they are exhausting to do, and are harder to keep track of in editing.
Now that you have the recording of the voice over, bring it into the editing software, in #filmora9 it's just drag and drop the files into the media, I create a folder to keep things organized. Filmora also has a voice over function that works with the microphone in the computer, I don't use that because my lavaliere microphone plugged into my tablet works better and doesn't pick up the sounds of the computer fan.
There are several cutting tools that are just a right click away, this is a tip on using this, the right mouse button selects the clip and brings up the menu at the same time. There are short cut keys for almost everything as well but you still have to select the clip to affect before you hit the key combination. I find that using shortcut keys can slow me down when I have to move my hand from the mouse to use them then back again. So I learn and use the shortcuts that are easy for my left hand, and use my right hand to right click mouse button menu for everything else.
Notice that the audio is the only thing I am working with at first. This is so I can take all of the bloopers out first, and export a single clean voice over track. Sherry says I make more bloopers than voice over, so this keeps it simpler in final editing. This is where the ripple delete works well, it pulls all of the clips on the right the same space as the part just deleted. This is also why I only work with the audio first, any clips above the clip I am working on move as well, some may even disappear from the timeline.
