hey guys abstain here with the next in my series of videos showing you how to improve your video quality so today we're going to be taking a look at how to properly sync your video and audio together and this is something that was very very requested last time so let me go ahead and give you guys a quick tutorial so first of all obviously you're going to need the video so this is probably gonna be from your camera or camcorder preferably that will have some audio it helps you sync but it's not that's not a huge deal and then you should also go ahead and pick up your audio from perhaps an external microphone for example USB or zoom h1 or whatever so once you have both of these just go ahead and drop them into your timeline on whatever video editor you like and then there's a couple of ways to do this now there's the automatic approach which if you have an editors such as Final Cut Pro 10 it'll allow you to automatically do it so it'll get it all perfectly synced out without any having to worry about anything same goes for there are plugins for various editors not for everything but there are plugins that you can go ahead and pick up if you can will do the same thing will do it automatically for you however if you don't have a video editor or you want to buy a plug-in or anything like that there is a very simple manual way of doing it so all you need to do and this needs to be done while you're actually filming it's just claps so I'm gonna go ahead and open up the the sound mixer it's called in quarrel you might see his waveform or audio or something like that but basically just be sure that you can actually see the audio in waveform so I like to do is just clap so you guys can see there a clap and that it's a really nice loud noise it allows me to go ahead and sync everything really nicely it's just going to be audio and whatnot it can get a little bit difficult but if you have a nice really loud clap and preferably if you can have it on camera it's very simple so once you had this and you have a on both to see your everyone here as well as one here so just go ahead and trim this down doesn't have to be super precise at the beginning just get roughly about right and actually wanna do that hang a second let's just cut the top clip and delete all the beginning of it and then come down to our audio and do the exact same thing and then put them together and if we look here everything looks about synced up we can go ahead and play through it and we should hear the clap just it shouldn't have any echo or anything like that should just be able to hear the clap and it's about that simple guys so only other thing is if you can take your video editor and Wenlock your audio and video together mute the the camera clip because odds are you're not gonna want both audio source just want to have your good microphone with whatever it may be and there you guys go so at this point you're all good to go just be sure to be careful when you're editing if you don't like you can't lock them together you don't you know they don't get out of sync you know half the video is you know if the audio is way off or anything like that but as long as you can lock it together and be careful with your editing you should have no problem and here we should have much better audio quality without having to spend a ton of time so hey guys if you enjoyed this video definitely be sure to subscribe to the channel if you have any more tips that you'd like me to cover as far as making videos definitely be sure to leave them in the comment section below
