what's going on guys this is John and with teal the inventor few requests on how I do my outros to my videos if you guys haven't checked them out it's a little bit different customizing more you can have the video plane so this is actually a tutorial on how to increase views subscribers basically drive traffic to other sites even Twitter Facebook basically or whatever you want but the main portion of this is how to increase views and basically what you're going to do is you're going to have basically a never-ending interactive link of videos so they're always intertwining and they're always checking something else out so not just that new video that you uploaded but they're gonna check out the one before now I've seen a few people do this but I took it to basically a little bit different of a level and customized it in Photoshop now I'm gonna do two portions to this I'm gonna do it advanced one if you have Photoshop and if you don't have Photoshop imma show you guys how to do basically the same thing and a little more of an easier tutorial so if you guys don't have Photoshop don't want to watch this part of it go ahead and click this little icon that'll shoot you to the end of the video I'm gonna go over the basic tutorial for you guys a little bit easier one or you guys can just check it out so let's go ahead and get started so gonna play it for a minute right now just basically import my old video along with the template I created in Photoshop I'm going to show you guys how I do that so I have Photoshop open right now if you were to open it depending on what video size you have that's what you're gonna create the file to so most of my video I usually export to 720 but as the stock footage comes in when I imported its at 1920 by 1080 HD so that's full 1080p so I'm gonna go ahead and create that exit that one already have the one open but basically that's a full HD portion of what your video would look like so the first thing I'm gonna do is actually fill this in now what I do is I actually leave this transparent and save it to a PNG format just so I can have a little cool like maybe the arrow overlain you guys will see that later in the tutorial but I'm gonna fill this in black for right now just kind of as a guide and then we can delete that after so where I get a lot of my icons actually is my favorite one of my favorite site is icons PDA comm so I'm gonna post a link to that in the description so you guys can search anything from Facebook to Twitter or basically they have a ton of different icons you guys can see I using my banners and design other channels so we're gonna go ahead and just type social media just for the simplicity of the tutorial right now that way we can all have similar icons that way they all interact and they all look the same so you guys can see we have a Facebook right here it'll give you the option you want to do PNG because that's gonna allow you to have the background transparent and that's gonna be able to be easier to insert into Photoshop alright so we have the Facebook icon right here we're gonna go ahead and download the biggest file so gonna click that it's going to go into your downloads folder and go ahead and get that open for you guys so I've got a few downloads here let's go ahead and open this with Photoshop so we're going to press command a that's gonna select it command C it's gonna copy it and then we're gonna go ahead and paste that into the template so there we have the Facebook right here we'll do the same thing we'll go back and get the Twitter in there this is just a quick an example you don't have to do the Facebook or Twitter or whatever website or whatever you want to have it you guys can be creative and customize it your own way and link it to whatever you want so let's go ahead and open this was Photoshop the same thing command a command C and then we're gonna do command V to paste it those are just a couple of keyboard shortcuts for for Photoshop so go ahead and place those we'll go into line them I like to get into the habit of naming everything so that way everything is organized and you don't run into confusion after so the Facebook and we'll go ahead and create some text so usually it'll be black when you're playing your videos so go ahead and select whatever you want so Facebook dot-com / TLD today just use mine as an example go ahead and get that a little bit bigger and then we can put that on the bottom now the reason for the template is you can actually import these into whatever you're doing whether it be Final Cut Express Vegas ScreenFlow but you're gonna have a bunch of layer so not only is that gonna take longer to render but you're gonna have to do a lot more work every time so if you make one kind of premade template it's going to be a lot easier and it's gonna save you render time and the more time you can save obviously the more you can do so let's go ahead and chase this to Twitter and like I said whatever it's your email whatever you want it to be you can do that and these are just a couple ideas I had so we can line them up there I won't go too into OCD about lining them up right now this is a quick example to show you how to do it and you guys have that idea so here like I said this is the background you can go ahead and mute that now a good idea is to you can touch it up with a drop shadow for the text that way it pops a little more whatever you have it and you guys I mean I'm not the best Photoshop guy but if you guys are a little more advanced at Photoshop you guys can basically do whatever you want with this so let's go ahead and turn that guide back on and now we're gonna actually you're gonna visualize where your video is gonna be so we can take that same text duplicate it you're gonna make this one a little bit bigger and like I said a guy'll reiterate this again you guys can make this however you want so check out the latest video now you can even have it corresponding to the not the latest video can be just a related video something you guys want to have promoted of your videos so let's go ahead and increase this to a good size and put that up there you guys can place it wherever you want I like to do mess around easy way to make an arrow I know you can make the arrows in Photoshop but it's just a quick way to do it and then you can basically rotate them command T that's the transform for you guys using Photoshop and just basically where you would have the video is visualized where you'd have it located there and you can add a couple more and you can add a couple more arrows rotate them however you want just pretending the videos there like so and then what we're gonna do like this is a little makeshift one showing you guys how I do it you guys would see the video for example just for a visual for you guys the video would be like right here or whatever so let's go ahead and delete that now what we're gonna do is actually turn that off so this is gonna be basically a transparent version you guys can say this as a PNG so that way if you want to have the arrow overlapping on the video and I'll show you guys how that works in a minute so we're gonna go ahead and save this as desktop you want to save this as a PNG so you can say YouTube outro and we'll go ahead and say that's the desktop for now you guys can save it wherever you want and then I'm gonna go ahead and open up Final Cut here's mine that I have set up right now I'm gonna go ahead and delete this and import the new one so you guys can see how it works and like I said this is very similar to Final Cut Express but you can do the same thing in ScreenFlow already I don't know how grojband is not GarageBand excuse me iMovie I don't know how many layers you can have in there but here's just an example for this what we're going to put that actually put this over at the top so this way since the trim is transparent you can actually have the arrows overlapping the video or you can like if you have the text going over here you can do that it's not going to get in the way so we'll go ahead and line that up right here you're gonna have to render it obviously and like I said the plus to this is you're gonna you're gonna save time with rendering and like I said the way you interact these videos now with the newest video you're gonna have people checking out the video before this so it's going to increase fuse and it's really a good way to keep all the traffic and just like I said increase your overall traffic and with the addition to Facebook or Twitter or even having a subscription link in there that's going to increase your subscribers it's going to increase traffic to Facebook Twitter for your followers I think I've learned a little tip 2 is actually verbally asked them to check out your Twitter or your Facebook even though there's text it seems like people will respond better to actually asking them verbally so that's a little tip for you guys I'm gonna jump over to the the more if you don't have the Photoshop tutorial right now all right now I'm jumping over to the the easier tutorial or for those of you that don't have Photoshop I'm gonna show you how to do the kind of the same effect and get that going so I'm gonna use Final Cut Pro right now this will work in Final Cut Express ScreenFlow so basically like I said earlier in this lesson icons pedia is one of my favorite places to find the PNG see Angie's are important because they have the background clear and those are easy to import into whatever video editor that you have so I've downloaded a couple right now I'll show you this one just for example this is a Twitter icon so that's in my downloads folder so we're gonna go ahead and jump back to Final Cut and import those files I have a facebook also and I've stressed it in this video as well it doesn't have to be the same you guys can be creative and basically customize these however you want so there's a Twitter one that we have that in there now we can actually drag this over into Final Cut resize them to the thing with that is why do you like having the Photoshop is you don't have to import all these layers and it's going to save you time with rendering and you just have to import one file basically every time you do your video instead of having to do this every time or copy and pasting and render it and every time it's going to get to Facebook same Facebook once so just like we did it for the Twitter go ahead and pop that in there as a layer resize it and now we have those and then we're gonna want to do the text so depending on how your program is I know screen photos text if Final Cut Express Vegas whatever it is that you have you can do this similar type effect so let's go ahead and select this and basically like in my video go ahead and do that resize it make sure that fits pop that in there as another layer so you guys start to see all these layers built up now to work and you give the same desired effect but it's gonna take longer to render so if you really can get a hold of Photoshop and doing it like that it'll save you a lot of time and the same thing you can copy/paste this kind of get the arrows effect that I have going on edit that and put that to the video so this is a quick little basically overview of it but you know you guys can see how that works but you'll see its lot choppier if you watch the whole tutorial and it's a lot more rendering that you're gonna have to do so you can add the text to the Twitter to the Facebook you can add YouTube to subscribe whatever it is if you do your email if you have basically tumblr or anything else like that you can link it to those with the descriptions so like I so this is basically I wouldn't really even call it a simpler tutorial but this is for those of you who don't have Photoshop if you guys can apply this to ScreenFlow or iMovie or any of the other video editing programs but that's does I've had a few requests so I hope this guy's helped you guys for you aspiring tech reviewers wondering how to increase traffic and your views and your subscribers but that's just about does it for this tutorial so I have a few more actually YouTube tips coming up in the future so as always feel free to subscribe and I'll catch you guys later and just like this tutorial check out my
