Скачать или смотреть Happy Ghost II (1985) | This teacher has maxed out their magic power💫🪄

Making a YouTube movie edit is way more complicated than it looks. Take my recent project, the edit of “Happy Ghost II (1985)”, for example — the whole process took me 6 hours from start to finish, polishing every detail until the video was ready.

First comes material preparation. I watched the movie several times to pick out the most iconic moments — the funniest gags, close-ups of facial expressions, and a few classic twist scenes. Then, I imported everything into Premiere Pro and After Effects, where I started rough-cutting and marking key points.

Next is rhythm design. To keep viewers engaged, I synced every cut with the background music. Each beat had to match the visuals perfectly — even a difference of just a few frames could ruin the flow. For a lighthearted comedy like Happy Ghost II, hitting those beats is absolutely crucial.

Then comes the effects stage. This time, I created a lock effect that freezes the screen at a funny turning point, then quickly transitions to the next shot — super eye-catching. I also added subtitle sync effects, so that key dialogues and exaggerated sounds blend perfectly with the visuals.

During color grading and optimization, I tried to keep the retro vibe of the original film, while adjusting brightness and contrast to make it look sharper and more appealing for short-form platforms.

Finally, there’s the export and upload. I always preview the video several times locally to check the audio, subtitles, and effects before exporting the final high-quality version to YouTube. It’s a time-consuming process, but the sense of accomplishment when it’s done makes it all worth it.

So, whenever you see a 1-minute edit on YouTube, remember — behind those few seconds of excitement might be hours of careful work. Just like this Happy Ghost II edit: 6 hours of dedication turned into a short video that grabs attention in an instant.
