1 1 00:00:00,550 --> 00:00:01,970 As Sasha mentioned, 2 2 00:00:01,970 --> 00:00:04,010 please make sure to keep the camera running 3 3 00:00:04,010 --> 00:00:05,620 after you finish shooting your video 4 4 00:00:05,620 --> 00:00:07,760 because we wanna create a couple 5 5 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:09,610 of potential thumbnail images 6 6 00:00:09,610 --> 00:00:12,670 that we can use when we make our thumbnails. 7 7 00:00:12,670 --> 00:00:14,540 And I'll show you a couple of examples, 8 8 00:00:14,540 --> 00:00:17,400 and please ignore the green paint on the ground here. 9 9 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,540 I did kind of a hack job painting my green screen here, 10 10 00:00:20,540 --> 00:00:21,540 but don't worry about that 11 11 00:00:21,540 --> 00:00:25,030 because we can edit all that out in post-production. 12 12 00:00:25,030 --> 00:00:28,160 So, I usually do a couple of little poses, 13 13 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,580 and when you do it, you gotta stay perfectly still 14 14 00:00:30,580 --> 00:00:33,120 for a sec and otherwise you get wavy fingers 15 15 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:34,880 in post-production. 16 16 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,033 So, I usually point this way. 17 17 00:00:39,330 --> 00:00:40,363 Then I do this way. 18 18 00:00:42,710 --> 00:00:45,773 Then I might do something like this, be careful. 19 19 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:49,453 Then I do confuse sometimes. 20 20 00:00:51,100 --> 00:00:52,790 And then I do one or two serious ones 21 21 00:00:52,790 --> 00:00:54,950 as well in case the topic is very serious. 22 22 00:00:54,950 --> 00:00:57,050 And I usually smile a little bit 23 23 00:00:57,050 --> 00:00:59,960 just to be a little bit welcoming, so to speak, 24 24 00:00:59,960 --> 00:01:03,080 in all of my images, but if it's something that's serious, 25 25 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:04,530 you don't wanna smile. 26 26 00:01:04,530 --> 00:01:06,163 So, I'll do something like this. 27 27 00:01:07,630 --> 00:01:08,463 Or... 28 28 00:01:09,860 --> 00:01:11,530 But usually I like to smile. 29 29 00:01:11,530 --> 00:01:14,820 Okay, so the next step is I'm gonna show you 30 30 00:01:14,820 --> 00:01:18,860 how to use Windows and Mac to actually play those videos 31 31 00:01:18,860 --> 00:01:22,520 and take screen images that we can potentially use 32 32 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,023 when make our thumbnails. 33 33 00:01:25,940 --> 00:01:28,340 Now we're gonna take an image of the screen 34 34 00:01:28,340 --> 00:01:29,930 so that we can insert that image 35 35 00:01:29,930 --> 00:01:32,240 directly into our thumbnail image. 36 36 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:33,530 I'm gonna kick it off with Windows. 37 37 00:01:33,530 --> 00:01:34,490 If you're using a Mac, 38 38 00:01:34,490 --> 00:01:37,040 line:15% please fast-forward to this point here in this video. 39 39 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:37,960 line:15% Thanks. 40 40 00:01:37,960 --> 00:01:39,480 line:15% So, with Windows, as you know, 41 41 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,120 line:15% there's always a number of ways to do many things. 42 42 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:43,940 So, when you take a screen print, 43 43 00:01:43,940 --> 00:01:46,280 I'm gonna show you the two easiest ways to do it. 44 44 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,330 So, first of all, let's fast-forward in the video 45 45 00:01:49,330 --> 00:01:51,560 to a point where I was actually pointing, 46 46 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,220 which I think was around the 42nd mark. 47 47 00:01:54,220 --> 00:01:55,930 And then we we're gonna hit pause. 48 48 00:01:55,930 --> 00:01:58,960 And we gotta make sure that I'm not moving at all. 49 49 00:01:58,960 --> 00:01:59,950 Okay. 50 50 00:01:59,950 --> 00:02:03,270 So, here we go, and I click play, 51 51 00:02:03,270 --> 00:02:05,950 and pause, good. 52 52 00:02:05,950 --> 00:02:08,610 I'm now gonna hit the button called Print Screen, 53 53 00:02:08,610 --> 00:02:12,510 which basically just copies the screen into the clipboard, 54 54 00:02:12,510 --> 00:02:15,110 then you can paste it into almost any application, 55 55 00:02:15,110 --> 00:02:16,910 and I'll show you how. 56 56 00:02:16,910 --> 00:02:19,090 Print Screen, I just hit it. 57 57 00:02:19,090 --> 00:02:21,500 Let's go over to PowerPoint for fun, 58 58 00:02:21,500 --> 00:02:23,690 and let's right-click and select paste. 59 59 00:02:23,690 --> 00:02:26,700 And you can see that the image is actually placed there. 60 60 00:02:26,700 --> 00:02:29,630 Now, there's another way to do it, which I like better, 61 61 00:02:29,630 --> 00:02:31,610 and it's using the Snipping Tool, 62 62 00:02:31,610 --> 00:02:34,660 which ships with most versions of Windows. 63 63 00:02:34,660 --> 00:02:39,050 So, let me go back here to the video. 64 64 00:02:39,050 --> 00:02:42,510 I'll go back here to around 40 seconds. 65 65 00:02:42,510 --> 00:02:43,810 I'm at 38. 66 66 00:02:43,810 --> 00:02:45,680 I'm gonna wait and pause right there, boom. 67 67 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:46,760 Okay, great. 68 68 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,563 Then what I'm gonna do is go up here and select Split Right. 69 69 00:02:51,510 --> 00:02:55,720 And then I'll select right here the Snipping Tool. 70 70 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,740 S-N-I-P-P-I-N-G. 71 71 00:02:57,740 --> 00:02:58,790 There it is there. 72 72 00:02:58,790 --> 00:03:02,593 I'll hit Enter to open it up, and then I'm gonna click New. 73 73 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,870 And I'm gonna draw over top here, 74 74 00:03:05,870 --> 00:03:08,360 you can't see the outline, but it's working, 75 75 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,610 and once I click it again, there you go, 76 76 00:03:10,610 --> 00:03:12,780 it took a snapshot of that. 77 77 00:03:12,780 --> 00:03:16,690 Then what I can do is if I want to I can save that snip 78 78 00:03:16,690 --> 00:03:21,510 as an image on my computer, or I can just actually go in 79 79 00:03:21,510 --> 00:03:24,880 and hit here Copy and then paste it 80 80 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,480 into a program if I wanted to. 81 81 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,940 Okay, so that sums up how to do it on Windows. 82 82 00:03:29,940 --> 00:03:31,850 Let's move on to Mac now. 83 83 00:03:31,850 --> 00:03:34,300 Now, if you're using a Mac, 84 84 00:03:34,300 --> 00:03:37,080 there's an easy way to take a screen print. 85 85 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,090 You just hit the Command + Shift 86 86 00:03:39,090 --> 00:03:40,950 and the number four at the same time. 87 87 00:03:40,950 --> 00:03:44,240 Again, that's Command + Shift + 4 at the same time. 88 88 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,790 Then you draw an outline of what you want the image to be. 89 89 00:03:48,790 --> 00:03:51,360 Okay, so if I wanted that one, which would be 90 90 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:52,830 just a terrible image, (camera shuttering) 91 91 00:03:52,830 --> 00:03:55,780 let me turn off the volume here, I could do that. 92 92 00:03:55,780 --> 00:03:58,680 But let's fast-forward here directly to, 93 93 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,770 I think it was around 40 seconds, and then I'll hit pause. 94 94 00:04:01,770 --> 00:04:02,603 Hold on. 95 95 00:04:03,630 --> 00:04:05,090 Okay, right there, cool. 96 96 00:04:05,090 --> 00:04:06,640 Click anywhere else you want 97 97 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,180 to get rid of the play button there, 98 98 00:04:09,180 --> 00:04:11,333 then again, hit Command + Shift + 4, 99 99 00:04:12,630 --> 00:04:14,580 and then I'm gonna click here, 100 100 00:04:14,580 --> 00:04:17,830 and then it's going to take a picture. 101 101 00:04:17,830 --> 00:04:20,380 So, that was automatically saved to my desktop. 102 102 00:04:20,380 --> 00:04:22,590 Now, the more recent versions 103 103 00:04:22,590 --> 00:04:24,910 of the operating system for Mac, 104 104 00:04:24,910 --> 00:04:26,720 if you click in the corner here, 105 105 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,110 sometimes you're able to actually click here 106 106 00:04:30,110 --> 00:04:33,760 to save the image in the Preview app 107 107 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,040 or to send it somewhere else 108 108 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,190 on your computer if you want to. 109 109 00:04:37,190 --> 00:04:38,370 Then you can click Save 110 110 00:04:38,370 --> 00:04:40,760 and send it somewhere else on your computer 111 111 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,613 instead of the default, which again, is on your desktop. 112 112 00:04:45,490 --> 00:04:49,440 So, now we're done taking the screen prints of the video, 113 113 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:50,780 and then next step is 114 114 00:04:50,780 --> 00:04:53,110 we're going to insert these screen prints 115 115 00:04:53,110 --> 00:04:56,030 into the desktop software applications 116 116 00:04:56,030 --> 00:04:58,870 that we're going to use to create the image 117 117 00:04:58,870 --> 00:04:59,903 for our thumbnails.
