Recruitment to the GNUᴱᴰᴵᵀᴵᴺᴳ is opened: GNUᴱᴰᴵᵀᴵᴺᴳ
GNUᴱᴰᴵᵀᴵᴺᴳ is an wide-open community of video editing enjoyers that supports the idea of open-source video editing.
We are placed generally in our OdySee channel and in Matrix community room.
Please, read the OdySee channel info.
I am a little confused how a channel on a video sharing site is a “wide-open community” to which you can recruit people. Is the plan to share the account credentials so multiple people can upload to the same channel?
Oh, I just read the channel info as you suggested. Let me paste it here to help people understand your concept:
- Make an edit in a open-source software;
- Upload it to your own channel in OdySee/LBRY;
- Notify me in “Community” section of my channel or in our Matrix room
I will select the best works on a “best of the best” basis.
Add project file of your work is optional decision.
I think it is an interesting idea in abstract. One can also share projects in a number of ways and simply post a link to the downloadable project in a post here in Made with Shotcut (although your idea expands beyond just Shotcut). A lot of projects shared like this are not suitable for a zip file. You might need to be able to upload or download individual files since they can be so large. In that case, a shared folder on a cloud drive is probably better.
I once made a project for Wikimedia Germany in cooperation with Internet Archive that was going to be a collaboration service to facilitate editable videos embedded in Wikipedia articles: GitHub - ddennedy/wikimedia-video-editing-server: A web application to help with editing videos on Wikimedia Commons
At the time, Shotcut was still young, and they only wanted to support Kdenlive. But there is no reason it could not support both and possibly others. I cannot work on this today because it conflicts with my employment.
Not entirely true. I won’t give the credentials of my account to other peoples for uploading videos to my channel. All those who want to join my community should just notify me at “Community” section in OdySee, or in Matrix chat. After that they should show everything they know and I will selectively add them at the “Channels” section.
Why I didn’t choose YouTube? There were some problems with the my Google Account and I had to go to OdySee (non-conformist solution). You also mentioned “projects”. this is my project file from the editing program. It is needed to see what effects I use and how it looks like. Maybe someone will come in here, but now i’m just looking for people from my circle of friends who could also support my community, because soon I will have to pass exams. If you know the editing clans like “dreamakers”, “Universe Editing”, “369”, then you will understand why my clan was created.
Interesting. So basically I can just upload something I am working on, with/without the project file. And you would choose the best out of everyone’s edit? You should get a community vote too, like choose the best 5 according to you, and let the community vote for the best.
And hey do you have judging categories like story, color, audio, continuity, or is it that you just choose whatever you like?
And yep I am up for it, working on my edit.
Hmm. Very well. Project file is a optional decision (better if you have it to download, so others can see what effects/tricks you use in the edit). About categorization in editing: I do aspect on dynamics, color correction, flow (when is sharp movement, but at the same time it looks as smooth), and interesting audio mixing (with SFX). If you are ready to join our clan, be prepared to create your own channel in OdySee (the clan will be located there). If you want to discuss more detail and freely, our room in the Matrix is always open for you (do not be scared if you see messages from my Russian-speaking friends).
Nice
Would require motion blur honestly ig, and keyframing magic too. And that sparks the idea of using more than 1 software for editing, it would get tedious but if it’s free it good.
I would be on the side of sharing it, would like to see others fixing my way of working, ie finding a more efficient way of doing the same effect.
Indeed after I complete making my video.
Я не боюсь вообще, понял? Я шпарю по-русски так, будто меня Гопник с Арбата учил! Как рот открываю — народ в ахуе: ‘Шо это за лютый акцент?’. У меня такой русский, что даже Яндекс Переводчик сдается и пишет: ‘Брат, я пас’. Бабки в метро крестятся, студенты валят с лекций, а менты делают вид, что не слышали — а то ещё придётся объяснять! Так что пусть лучше они боятся — мой русский опаснее, чем очередь в Пятёрочку перед выходными! 
лул) Let’s keep talking in eng, because admins can concretely be gonna scared. What’s editing style you more prefer?
Hehe… I guess they would need to use translate more often.
My favourite editing style is basically more focused on tutorials, something like he talks about in this video, it is how he edits, and I like the way of editing he does:-
But talking about like actual edits than this type:-
I watched it. I understand that you like. But… Well, I don’t know. Our community specialises in something different editing style. Like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxX2HYnYrT0

Anyway, you can try to made something interesting and free for profit.
Sure I will.
I see your community has a liking for phonk edits, I like them too, but they’re kinda hard to make in shotcut honestly. I have to look for another open-source software that does it better. Like blender or so.
Under different songs can be done. The main thing – to look beautiful and unusual. In Blender dynamic editing will be even harder to do, Blender is more for 3D graphics and also for cool VFX’s. KDEnLive and ShotCut are the best solution for in this case.
I have a good amount of experience in blender rn, almost 3-4 years worth. It has gotten a lot easy for me to work on it now.
It’s easier than ever, plus the sheer amount of things I can do. But it takes more time and is resource expensive indeed. I will see if kdenlive works.
You are very good! I can only make 3D text in Blender. And such a dilemma is that I have Blender pull, but do anything in it I am bored and not interested. You have a great chance to be in the top of our community.
Not in the top, I know how to do things in blender, but I can’t do it that well. I am not really a good editor, that is I can guide what to use and how to use, I can’t really create such effects so good that one might love it.
Although my modelling and animations have gotten better from the starting, once I was like you too. It would not take long to learn, infact blender is fairly easy to understand.
You shouldn’t be afraid of trying new things and taking risks. Do as you see it.
I have only one question here, are you all adults?
