Oh, YouTube. So slippery.
You may have been in this situation before – you’ve got your straight HD export from Final Cut Pro with the sequence settings, and it goes fine into Vimeo and just about everywhere else. But, upload it to YouTube, and it’s a mess. Low quality everything, and no HD option.
This is a little frustrating, but it can be resolved. We tried out a number of settings and found that the following created the best results.
Adam, Doug, and Lance are back and talking about nothing but editing! Our favorite nostalgic editing systems, the “Big 3″ nonlinear editors out there, some editing best practices across any system, and our picks of the week.

Adam The Film Editing Room Handbook
About a month ago, we taught you an easy way to make a movie without a video camera. While simple and cost effective, this method still requires actors, a still camera and some video editing software… and although most people have access to all of these materials, there of still some of us who do not. If you are one of those people, or if you are simply looking for another fun way to tell your story, you may want to check out Text-To-Movie, an online module from Xtranormal.com that allows you to create short, animated movies right on the site.
