Making a Gaming Video

In this chapter of the book, we will take a slightly different approach to creating our video. We will start by recording ourselves playing a video game, ideally with a webcam on, and we will edit it the way professional YouTube video editors do it! We will start by recording some gameplay in any game that you prefer and then we will choose our key moments and remove the “boring” or not-so-fun parts. After that, we will edit our video with everything we’ve learned throughout this book and finally export it!

In this chapter, we will cover the following:

  • How to plan our gaming video
  • Recording our gameplay
  • Choosing the best moments from our recorded gameplay video to keep in our video
  • Adding different animations, effects, and techniques to break the monotony of a video
