Okay, so the question today we're going to talk about is how to make a YouTube

video intro animation thing like you're going to see right now. See? That just

makes me... It just... It... You know, so we ask the question why have one of

those? The juices are our phone. You know what I mean? Like, I just watched that and I'm

like, "I'm excited to hear what Nate has to say. With those little robotic voices

and the ♫♪Chink chink♫♪. It's exciting. -It definitely it brings an

energy because you got some music especially in these videos, we're just

talking. So, it adds some life to the videos. It also creates some

branding and some consistency. For people who have not watched this video or any

videos on this channel before, it kind of shows them a glimpse into what this

channel is all about. -I have a... There's a young man that lives in my neighborhood who

watches my stuff. You can see my little videos here. And you'll watch the opening

thing that Nate's company made for me. And... And he says, "That's my favorite part

of your whole..." He says, "I pretty much turn it off after you and your wife come on."

Or what. He says he likes the little opening squiggles. Yeah, that's...

-I called a video logo. Sometimes you call it an opener. -An intro, yeah. Like

a little music stinger. Yeah. -Alright. So we're going to show you how to make one of

those. Alright. Surprise, surprise. When I'm going to

have you do some research. And let's come here to After Effects. And let's come

down here to openers. Well you're in... What is videohive.net? That's... This is the

site where... -It's the companion, audio jungle that we talked about a video... Just

this is where you get video clips but we're looking specifically now for

openers. And I prefer... Let me show you again. If you come over here to After

Effects, you can do premiere promo... Premiere Pro openers. But After Effects,

if you have... If your editor or you know how to use After Effects, you can control

more. You can change the colors, you can switch out a little bit more than what

you can just do premiere pro. -Okay. -Either way, we're going to

come here to after-effects openers. We're already on that page. And what you can do

is just hover over it. Oh, I need a... Unmute or yeah. So now, when I hover over it,

you'll actually hear music. You get a little bit of filled with that openers

like. So, you can go through and find ones that you like and when you like them, I

recommend just opening them. And opening them in another tab so you can... And then

go back and review the ones that you like. The goal here is not to use the

full thing. I mean, you see here this one's 33 seconds long. This one's only 10

seconds. But this one's a minute in 3 seconds long. You want your video logo to

be like 3, 4, 5, 6 seconds. Something like that. I mean, sometimes 10 seconds is

going to be a stretch. But for people that come back and watch episode after

episode after episode, if you've got a 30 second opener, what I do on on those

channels is I just... -Look ahead. -So I don't end up watching it anyway. So... -Shorter the

better. Yeah, for sure. -So, I'll typically... Let's say that I

really like this one. -Now, the actual footage here is not what you're getting,

right? Because you're not going to show this. You want the template or something. -Good

point. So, you're... You buy the template, you'll actually then bring in your own

music. You could go and purchase the exact music that's with the sample. But

you'll bring in your own music and you'll bring in your own photos or video

footage, video clips to use in there. So, these are just samples. And where it

says, typography there or motive motion. You're going to put in your own words that

relate to your brand. -Okay, so when you buy it you download this template file

that's an aftereffect file. And then you just import it into after

effect and it's already set up for you to layer over your own video? -So, this

is... This is basically a shortcut. You can go into After Effects and create your

own animations. But these ones are pretty awesome. I mean,

there's 15, 844 just on this website that we can dive through and really find

something that we... That we like. That really matches what we're going for.

-So, my photos and my video will do what those ones just did. To kind of the

snap, zoom and the blur. Okay. -So, when we're launching a new channel with one

of our new clients, we'll have them provide us some photos

or some video clips. Obviously, we would have filmed with them at least one time

to get started. So, we have some video footage. And we'll then dive in here,

we'll purchase one of these templates and then my team will go in and they'll

they'll change out the words, they'll change out the photos and the clips. And

here's a cool strategy that we'll do. You know, if we've got a 30-second opener

template, we might take 5 seconds early on, another 5 seconds here and

another 5 seconds here and create 3 different versions. Just kind of

mix it up. -Yeah. -So, on one episode, we'll use this opener. On another episode, we'll

use this opener. It's going to have a similar theme but it mixes it up. Well,

and we'll throw in different photos. So, with one of my clients, a lot of her

topics are you know, talking to the camera... Kind of talking on deep topics

like how to overcome trauma and whatnot. And the image that she wants to portray

is that you can overcome this. "I've experienced great trauma, but now I live

a vibrant life." And how do we show that? Well, in the video logo,

we've... She's got photos of her riding a motorcycle, photos of her scuba diving

with hammerhead sharks. And we didn't want to you know, in a 6 second, five or

6 second... We did... We didn't want to just put all of those, you know adventure type

shots. But in one video logo, we showed her with the sharks. You know, so we

showed her at a desk, we showed her working with people, in a group and with

sharks. The next one, we swapped out the shark photo and we put in on a

motorcycle. And on another one, we put in another action. So, that way, people that

are watching these episodes get to see all sides of her that's just one

strategy we do is we create a few different videos logos. -I think it's a good

idea. Yeah, the variety. Yeah. -This is where you start. Find a temple that you want to

use for your video logo. And then step 2 would be to match it with the music.

If say, I really liked the music from this one.

Yeah, that's probably not the music I would choose. Well, let's say I liked it.

-Just a for instance. I'll open this in a new tab. -You don't have to marry it. -Okay,

so. That one's in a new tab. And then let's say, I like the visuals on this one.

I'll open up this one. But I'll mute.

Okay. So, this one's muted. But I come over here and I hit play on this one. So, now

we get the audio and I switch back. So, now we're... We're looking at the visuals

from 1 but hearing the audio from the other. Alright. See, if I pause this, the

audio still keeps going. That's funny. So anyway, you can mix and match the audio.

When you buy a template, it doesn't come with the audio file even though it's

playing as a sample with it. So first step, find the template that you want and

then gather some photos. Kind of a good variety or... Video clips are even better.

If you have them of you know, a photo of you standing on top of a mountain is

cool. But if there's a video of you staying around, that's even better. -Yeah.

Because just a second of it but just a little bit of motion. -Sweep, yeah. -So,

that's how you do it. So, for me coming from you know, a professional video

production company, that's how we do it. We just buy a template, we used to go

through and create. But... -That's a lot of work. -Yeah, it's a lot of work and you

don't get as good of results. Just by a template. -Most of you probably aren't

that creative to be your own animator. So, the template way. -Of course, be sure to

How To Build A Large Shed - In One Video - Duration: 16:02.

Garden sheds we all have them. Whether that's a purchased shed or a built one

like this one behind me, they're fantastic for storing things or relaxing

in at the garden. In this episode I'm going to condense

five previous episodes into one because a number of you have asked for one

episode that's not so long. However, I will put links to all the other episodes

in the description below. But this will give you an understanding of what it

takes to build your own shed.

I'm Tony O'Neill and this is UK Here We Grow on this channel we deal with all things

gardening poultry keeping and beekeeping if you want to make your garden a

perfect place to relax or want to know how to grow your own food, then click the

just like this. Your not allowed to use concrete on allotment sites, so here

I decided to dig an 18 inch deep hole in the ground. This enabled me to bring in

tons of hardcore in order to build our base, at home you would just use concrete.

As you can see for the first layer I used breeze blocks and bricks. I then

moved on to larger stones then finer stones and eventually ended up with fine

grit. I then laid two foot by two foot patio slabs on top. This will create

the base that will drain and stop rats from living underneath it. We've got a

good solid base now so we can pretty much put anything down on this we know

it's not going to collapse we know he's not gonna be any issues with rats or

anything like that. The next thing is to start creating the walls, simply lay out

your timbers on the floor. Create the external timbers for the wall and then

lay in the internals. Most walls are simple to make but like here I was

adding a door and a window so the layout is a little more complicated, but just

take your time and screw these don't nail, this is stronger and can be

dismantled if it's not right. This shed will have a single sloping roof off to the

back of the shed where I will collect the water to use on the garden. For this

the front wall is around nine inches taller than the back wall. Once we have

all four walls built we simply need to bolt them together, if you have someone

to help you this is easy if not use a clamp as this is a second pair of hands.

Bolt them together or screw them the choice is yours.

Just move the walls to the marked locations and make your first corner.

ensure it is square and then place in the other walls to complete the structures

frame.

There you have it guys, all four walls are up. As you can see here, the front is

about nine inches higher than the back and that's to create the slope for the

rain to run off. But, all it needs now is for me to start putting the rafters in and

away we go. As you can see I've now got the front door in. We've started plying the

outside. Now this is a hard wood exterior ply, so we can just paint it.

This is the shed currently, and

I've changed to shuttering ply here it's still exterior

grade for the last three because that's what I had here. There you are guys, thats the back

wall finished. The roof is all done as well with corrugated sheeting.

So keeps the shed really light. I painted this shed with the dedicated

external wood paint in the color I wanted this was to help protect all

those exposed Timbers.

There we go, so we sealed all the joints and then we

basically built a corner board with that. and we've done one across the

bottom and we will seal the bottom with construction adhesive which will help

hold the slab keep some of the water out and then we'll go over that with a

silicone just to help shed the water. Now where the two joins were we've filled

with construction adhesive and that will help keep out water. And we're now going to

put in some 2x1 and screw that in its place, and and then we will be done as

far as that goes. Here it is guys. I've got a little bit more paint work to do on the shed just

touch up where they dripped a bit of paint or some of the frame work some of

the trim needs a little bit more paint, a third coat. But I thought, well this is

going to give you an idea of what it looks like how it's all set up.

Excuse the mess all around here we've got to finish the path in front of it

but the shed itself is now watertight and it's now able to be used as a

shed. When you design something inevitably you find that there are issues

with it. So, what are the issues of this shed? Well, firstly obviously we got we

used reclaimed windows and doors in here and we've got a blown pane here. We knew

that from the very first episode, but the biggest issue we have is the roof on the

shed. Now originally, I designed the shed so that we could also grow in it as well.

But now that's come to a point where I've decided against that, and there's two

reasons for it. The first reason, was last summer as you

can see it's nice a bright today, in that shed it gets absolutely boiling it's 17

foot by 14 foot of clear roof and the Sun just comes through and that heat has

nowhere to go. It gets so hot in there, last summer I couldn't even use

the shed. So that took out all of this space and I didn't get to use it, and

reason number two, is during the winter, that corrugated plastic we used then has

lots and lots of condensation. So the heat builds up in the day time in the

shed and then, through the night the cold hits that plastic and it all condenses, and

it's dripping everywhere in there. And also, it was running down, that condensation was running down

the roof and running down the back wall so

that back wall was absolutely soaking all of last winter. So let my mistakes be

a warning for you all. Corrugated sheeting is okay for cold frames, but don't use it

if you want a watertight shed. I spent an entire day ripping this roof off and

replacing it with 18mm exterior-grade OSB sheathing. This

actually strengthened the shed even more.

A lot of people they just put roofing felt down and they tack it down with

those thumbnails you know those the galvanized roofing felt nails. The

problem I have with those is that they do allow water to come into the

timber below, but also once the wind gets under it it just tears all of the

roofing felt. This is a bitumen product and it's basically adheres the felt to

the roof.

One big drawback about allotment gardens is that there is a lack of power there.

And with that lack of power means that you can't have any lighting so you're

limited the amount of time you can spend at the allotment. You can't run all sorts

of things like tools, and what-have-you okay? And as many of you have seen we

have been running tools off generators and all sorts over the years. Now that's

not to say solar is the answer for everything. However, what it's going to do

is allow us to have a fantastic amount of things that we can do from that solar.

And the very first one is to put lighting into this shed. Following the

instructions I simply attach the brackets to the solar panels. Due to the

spacing between my roof joists I had to re-drill some holes to ensure that the

bolts would be hitting a joist.

Place the panels in your chosen location. You can bolt these down or screw them as

I have here. However to prevent them being stolen all the screw heads have

been rounded over which means that the panel's would be ruined if someone tried

to steal them rendering them useless. Feed the cables from the panel's through

the shed wall, ensure to leave enough to tack the wire below the hole in a loop

this will prevent water getting in as it always goes lower than the hole before

dripping off. DO NOT connect these panels to the wires yet. OK, so on the charge

controller here, we've got a little picture, it's got one for the solar, one

for the battery, and then one for the load. Now the load is whatever we're gonna

take away from that and we're gonna put that into a junction box where we can

take off all sorts of stuff. But for these two wires we need to go into the

charge controller so we've got a positive on the left and we got the

negative on the right, the positive is always the red. So we just need to shove

that up in the hole up there as far as we can here we go, and tighten them down.

now we need to make sure that's in there really well. Same thing now with this

negative.

Right, they're gonna have to cut this one down with a little bit long.

Ok, so now we can tidy them up over there with some clips, job done.

Alright, so technically now we could link in that solar panel, and it will be live

Ok. that is now safe. We can now run two

more of these cables, which will come down to the battery. Now we're not going

to plug in the charge controller just yet. correction, the solar panels just yet,

until we get everything we want done here, as far as the battery and

everything else is concerned. They sure have protected this wire. Now, this is

quite heavy-duty wire and I know we're only 12 volt but a fair whack of power

can come down through these panels so we need to make sure that

we're secure there. So again, positive on the left.

And, we need to do the same now with the negative. So that fixing guys is just

temporary. Now all that is, is just to attach the

wires to the battery for the time being. Now this battery is 130 amp hours and

eventually we will get another couple and we'll wire them in Parallel and we'll

do a video on that when it comes to it. But for now we can connect the solar

panel up and it will be charging, It's relatively dark but I didn't want to

wait much longer, because I want to get home and have some food, it's coming up

to around about quarter past nine now. but as you can see the shed is

relatively dark, considering the time it is. But I want to show you what the lights

are like in here. So that's what the lights light up this shed like. Not bad

for a little 12-volt system. And I'm going to run through this 12-volt system

again if I turn it out,

Excuse the mess in my shed, but I just want to show you how effective these little

12-volt lights are. so again now, we're at the tunnel and in the tunnel

we've got a few lights there is only six in this main part of a tunnel. But it's

enough to be able to come up here in the winter, after work when it's pitch-black

at half past four, and there's all this stuff to go out. but it's enough for me to

get up here do some potting on or whatever I need to do. We also got two in

here as well, so as we are putting trays in here,

it's going to allow us to do that as well guys. Now you know exactly what it

takes to build a shed like this and I'm sure you'll agree that you couldn't

buy anything like this or as sturdy as this from a shop, The great thing about

building your own is that you get to control the

design and the materials that you use. And how big it is if you've enjoyed this
