I started and I began making videos roughly about two years ago in my tiny bedroom in England
0:18
I began with no skill, no prior experience and honestly no idea how to edit video
0:24
Fast forward just two years, I now create travel stories and videos to hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people around the world
0:32
I show stories of the real people behind the mass media's false narratives
0:37
My journey has taken me to Pakistan, India, Nepal, to Iraq, Syria, Jordan and many others to learn and discover the real truth about these countries
0:48
I first started editing using Adobe Premiere Pro a short two years ago and the difference in my
0:52
editing is pretty extraordinary. This is one of the first videos I ever created for my YouTube channel
1:18
flying flying somewhere very exciting the title of this video probably gave it away
1:39
but I'm going to go check in my flight is in about three hours I think
1:44
It's currently 25 to 5 and my flight is half 8. So I've got a few hours to kill and we're going to get some work done and we're off to Mumbai
1:57
Let's get out. Thank you very much. Have a good day. I made it across security, that was probably one of the toughest securities I've ever been through
2:14
As you can see the video editing is very very very poor The cuts are not on beat the sound quality is off and the sound and video are just not great If you just getting started out on YouTube
2:29
these are two good editing tips that I can give you to make your editing more quick and efficient
2:34
So if you didn't know, you can actually color grade your different files. So right click on
2:39
the files you want, onto label, and you can choose the colors. This helps you efficiently
2:43
locate the files you want. For example, my b-roll at the start is changed to a pink color and I've
2:49
just changed my speaking clips and my vlogging clips into a forest green color. And tip is when
2:55
you're playing back your video, the timeline doesn't move and it can become really, really
2:59
annoying. So go up to preferences and change it to smooth scroll. And this will allow the timeline
3:06
to move as you're playing back the video, making editing a lot faster, meaning you can get content
3:11
out quicker and higher quality. It's so easy to flow through life overlooking a lot of things
3:21
not acknowledging and forgetting how far you've actually come. Where you are now
3:26
most likely is a position so different to how things were, even just one year ago
3:41
Throughout the summer of 2019 I worked in three jobs. I worked two in two retail stores that just
3:50
sells clothes during the day and in the evening I also worked as a waiter in a hotel restaurant
3:58
You know I would come home exhausted and still learn video editing using Premiere Pro. I gave
4:04
myself five years to achieve this dream. A few months passed and I was editing and editing every
4:10
day and slowly but surely my editing was getting better. Just 12 months ago I remember sitting in a
4:17
hotel room in Lahore uploading and exporting my first video that I ever created in Pakistan
4:24
and as I went to click upload I realized that this could be one of the most important travel stories
4:32
I had ever told. Pakistan. You may have heard about it but not the truth In Pakistan militants have attacked the stock exchange building in Karachi The land where the oceans mountains lakes deserts and cities collide in an explosion of culture history amazing food and world hospitality
4:59
My journey will take you from city to mountain, from north to south to east to west
5:04
a journey of a lifetime, a journey I will never, ever forget. Welcome to the real Pakistan
5:34
Thank you
6:04
Welcome to America
6:23
Being able to tell travel stories is and will be the most important thing in my life
6:28
and this is where my journey has reached. My last travel series was shown from beautiful Iraq and has now been viewed by millions and millions of people across the world
6:41
Iraq, one of the richest countries in the world in history, culture, food and hospitality
6:49
A country with a dark past, it's time to discover its incredibly bright future
6:55
Welcome to the real Iraq. We be right back Thank you
7:28
From beginning to now, just two short years, Adobe has revolutionized my skills in storytelling
7:43
Oh my god, oh my god. Oh my god. yes
7:58
one million that is a lot of people and also a lot of responsibility i want to thank every single one
8:17
of you who has taken your precious time to watch the travel stories that I've created across the
8:23
world and those who stuck with me even from the beginning when my editing was horrific. Being able
8:31
to meet you and create these travel stories across the world is and will always be the biggest
8:37
blessing of my life and I am so so grateful. I also want to thank myself two years ago for
8:44
not giving up, for learning how to edit using Premiere Pro and for using every day to get better
8:51
and better at my craft. I can't believe we're here right now. I can't believe I'm making this video
8:58
and I can't believe I get to call this my job. I am so, so grateful and I can't wait to see you
9:06
on the next adventure. Thank you so much again. See you soon
