Ever wondered how my timeline for a YouTube video looks? Here’s a BTS look at how I structure, color-code, and polish a project from start to finish.

From using AddMotion to animate screen recording movements, stacking SFX layers for depth, to using roles for quick navigation, to dropping markers that become YouTube chapters, this is the kind of workflow I use on every edit.

I recently went to Poland for 5 days alongside 9 other incredible YouTubers! It was a super fun experience. YouTube often felt like a lonely journey but meeting these other creators from around the world was a life-changing experience for me.

I made a video about it, if you're interested in seeing what we got up to ⬇️

I spent the last 5 days in Poland and it was INCREDIBLE! 🤯

I met up with 9 other YouTubers, some of whom I have been talking to on the internet for years but have never actually met in person. On this trip we went Enduro mountain biking, flew in a helicopter, hiked and stayed in a mountain shelter. We ate amazing food, tasted new beers, had conversations about YouTube, gear, life, travel and so much more.

I can’t thank for making this trip possible and Eunika for putting this trip together, and taking care of us. We met the people behind the MotionVFX logo and they are so passionate and proud of the work they do. I will forever be grateful to have had this opportunity to meet all of these amazing creators, the incredible people at MotionVFX and for these memories that I will never forget. 🙏🏼

To all of the creators, my new friends, thank you for all the advice, laughs and great conversations. I learned so much from all of you and and I have MASSIVE respect for each and every single one of you.

So…. when and where do we meet again? 😅
