Video footage source to use with your music uploads to YouTube?

The Lounge General Discussion

Hello everyone :wave:

I’m a long time Elektron user but new Elektronaut!

I’m wanting to add a playlist of tracks to YouTube to go alongside Soundcloud.

I’m definitely not a video maker, and I don’t want to invest time/resources in it (as in I don’t want FCP or Premier on my laptop), so I’m looking for good sources/options for usable stock footage.

Does anyone have experience and advice for this?

Does anyone have any other recommendations on good ways to get your music onto YouTube (where the focus is the music, not the video)?

open

change a few numbers, do a bit of screen capture?

‘shift + ctrl + h’ to hide the code and buttons from the screen

great one, there’s lots of things you can do with it, reactive or generative, check out the docs.

also, lots of good info here:

also you can get free version of Davinci Resolve and use some effects on a static image, or just leave it static and generate a video for YT. very easy to use.

Thanks for this… I have Imaginando’s VS that I’ve experimented with, similar theme to this.

Thanks for this, I wasn’t sure what to search for when I did a search!
Lots of good info.

I would make the distinction between visuals and video too… I think I’m after more organic video footage than generated visuals.

Also, I’m not only looking for free options, I don’t mind paying for someone else’s work if it does what I need. :v:
