How to Sync Gun Shots To Music | In Depth | After Effects + Vegas

[TheSapphireflyer]

Only a Tipp: You can make Markers with "M" so you dont have to do hard work to find the beats on the Song in Sony Vegas !

[L3GTxLETHALKiLL]

I don't understand. On mine when I drag the video into vegas, on the preview part it only shows the top left hand corner of the video but not the whole thing. Does anyone know how to fix this?

[Colinowww]

Can I Use After Effects For My Standard Editing,

Or Is It For Really AFTER You Already Edited It?

Please Answer...

[Sorrelity]

How do you play audio through ae like your clips audio and the music audio when you press play, cause I can't D:

[nextgenguru]

@Sorrelity its RAM preview, not spacebar. Press NUMPAD 0

[R3L0ADS]

"Im really bad at explaining things"

[MetalStormProject]

@R3L0ADS Exactly haha

[MetalStormProject]

@fLUX95EDiT Yeah I think so but it would take a heck of a lot longer in my opinion.

[AbstractzIx]

Takes Patience Young Padowan............

[3L3EN]

Well tbh when i rendered it with twixstor my whole clip was slow mo ;) what im doing wrong?

[iMeezyHD]

@3L3EN keyframes.

[Xoireqe]

@MetalStormProject

What about prerender in quarter quality :P

[xBinHD]

"SPEED %" i can't change the speed :(

[xBinHD]

FIRST SONG PL0XXXXXX I NEED IT!!!

[CombatAMV]

wait a sec..what plugin do i need for after effects??

[MetalStormProject]

@CombatAMV Twixtor

[CombatAMV]

@MetalStormProject ahh i already know that

[Xoireqe]

@CombatAMV Ever heart of replay >.>

[CombatAMV]

@Xoireqe i couldnt understand what he was sayin'!

[xD3CEPTION]

why is yours like 155mb when rendered but when i rendered mine it came out 2.48gb? GAHHH!

[CruzerHD]

how is the first song for the sync example called? xD

[WescydeZzCinema]

why is my video really choopy if its recorded from hdpvr with 59.94 fps ??

[MetalStormProject]

@WescydeZzCinema 60 not 59.94 =)

[SmaLLbutVicious]

@MetalStormProject umm urs was 59.94 rite?

[MetalStormProject]

@SmaLLbutVicious Maybe, i cbf watching to see if I said that but just do 60 =)

[xBinHD]

@MetalStormProject how the F do you get your (hd pvr recorded) clips 120FPS??

[MetalStormProject]

@xBinHD You can't, only on pc.

[xBinHD]

@MetalStormProject i'm on pc lol i'm not on a mac

[xSpectrumGaming]

Strobe FTW!

[iloledyourcat]

lol at first It sounded like you had an american accent and then it changed to british. AWESOME!

[MetalStormProject]

@iloledyourcat Funny how I am from neither of those counties :D

[iloledyourcat]

@MetalStormProject haha EPIC!

[JaaaangoHD]

@MetalStormProject You are a auzzie :) x

[itzJaKz]

@MetalStormProject NZ?

[pyrofromsweden]

what sony vegas do you using?

[xIFreakzZ]

DEADMAU55 <3

[MetalStormProject]

@MeighyHD nope 60, for some reason it glitches sets it at 30 when u put it at 59.94. Its something allot of ppl dont know and get frustrated at why there twixitor is so choppy.

[N9neEditing]

@MetalStormProject My 59.94 is perfect lol, I had a video on my channel but I took it down.

[MetalStormProject]

@N9neEditing Oh yes sorry, it doesnt or shouldnt do it in older versions of vegas, however im using vegas 10, where as b4 I was using 9. Im assuming u are using an older version right?

[N9neEditing]

@MetalStormProject I'm using 10 lol.

[MetalStormProject]

@N9neEditing I have no idea then. I just know that it does happen to other people because when I download there clips to edit they say they are at 59.94 frames and when I review the clips its only at 30.

[N9neEditing]

@MetalStormProject Maybe they don't know how to render to 59.94 lol

[MetalStormProject]

@N9neEditing It doesnt work for me either

[SniiPerGuY]

kiwi

[xSiikShottzx]

Thanks man that really helped :)))

You deserve a sub

[iCamSkiEz]

No I'm Australian! :D Thats what I was saying and your a kiwi :D

[iCamSkiEz]

I picked your accent from the very beginning being aussie :P

[MetalStormProject]

@iCamSkiEz But im not australian lol

[MetalStormProject]

@MetalStormProject ahhh ok. It's funny because i can not tell apart Aus from NZ but Aus people can lol.

[spennyspadge]

@MetalStormProject i live in Australia and i thought you were Auzzie

[PAD2daBON3]

I have the say that is not the best way to do a gun sync it is easier to use markers and velocity evenlopes, i would consider myself a pro and i know that audio envelopes make the clip smoother

[MetalStormProject]

@PAD2daBON3 Thats just your opinion, markers get in the way IMO, its easy without them, anyway why are you watching this video if you know how to do it, thats just silly.

[TehCaramel]

@PAD2daBON3 If your a pro. Why are you watching a tutorial ? LOL

[PAD2daBON3]

@TehCaramel umm one of subscribers asked me if this is how i do my ak syncs

[DemiseFX]

LMAO !

[OpsDivine]

@NSNewcomerAK Just download a gunshot pack off of youtube. Then in Vegas just put the gunshots in after you muted the other audio. :)

[NSNewcomerAK]

@OpsDivine Is that the only way to do it? i want to sync shots with my music with a H3 montage

[CFglitcha]

backround song?

[BenInHD]

is 120FPS ok? lol on Frag movies...

[MetalStormProject]

@BenInHD If your computer can handle it fuck yes!!!

[BenInHD]

@MetalStormProject Lol i was Joking any way nice video <3

[TheEightyHD]

when i render the video the first time in vegas, and in after effects in looks fine. but when i render it after the twixtor and editing in vegas again, the quality looks really bad. i put it on best (full) for vegas, so how come it looks so bad? should i change the render settings from the first time or something?

[NSNewcomerAK]

what is twixtor

[TheAsUNation]

@NSNewcomerAK its a plugin designed for adobe after effects, it allows you to create smooth slow mo :)

[NSNewcomerAK]

@TheAsUNation oh ok, is there a plug in for after effects that allows to create fast motion? Syncing in AAE seems way harder than sony vegas to me

[Richpers0n16]

How do you get the clean gun sounds!!!! Please answer :D

[MetalStormProject]

@Richpers0n16 I sed in the video.

[Richpers0n16]

@MetalStormProject ye my bad, thanks a billion

[kingcobrajh]

PLEASE ANSWER QUICK!!! HOW DO YOU CUT THE CLIP LIKE AT 8:50

[lesayen26]

Render on vegas is so long O_o

[danerdsskaters]

@JordanJProd wait what?

[TheQuacked]

where can i get twixtor pro?

[CollinsHD]

Mines as a response! check it out and drop a comment

[snowshredder82]

Can you do this with just sony vegas? My computer is only 32 bit so i cant get after effects

[MetalStormProject]

@snowshredder82 You can but it will look choppy. Mine is 32bit too man, I think cs5 is 64bit but all the others run at 32bit so get those ones =)

[snowshredder82]

@MetalStormProject k thanks :)

[NextGenerationStuff]

@MetalStormProject Wait, did you say you can have AE CS5 if you have a 32 bit computer?? Really?! :O

[JustTwixR]

@NextGenerationStuff lol no cs5 is 64 bit and the rest cs4 down.

[Domochan103]

@MetalStormProject um, when i use the twixtor plugin, it puts these two orange lines going across the video preview screen. how do you hide them for turn them off? plz help

[MetalStormProject]

@Domochan103 ahhh I belive you only have the trial version, you need to get the full one.

[TheAsUNation]

@MetalStormProject

Hey dude, you know you can use markers to see where each beat is ?

theyre better than trying to find bumbs :)

listen to the song and press "m" everytime you hear the beat :)

[MetalStormProject]

@TheAsUNation Yeah but the thing with markers is you can get it wrong. Its easier to just play around with it and get it right then use markers. Might be quicker using markers but it will be off sync.

[TheAsUNation]

@MetalStormProject kool :)

[TheAsUNation]

@MetalStormProject ooh I forgot to ask yo, i recorded a clip with my pvr, but it only turned out in 29.97 fps :(

any tips?

I use A Hauppage HD PVR and record with the software given, i play on PS3

[MetalStormProject]

@TheAsUNation change it to 60 in sony vegas

[TheAsUNation]

@MetalStormProject er

It worked dude thanks :)

[iAliHD]

@TheAsUNation Oh my God. watch the video and listen, make sure the volume is on. you will actually notice he explains what to do to get it 59.94. btw make sure you got sony vegas or else you can't do it with the tut

[TheAsUNation]

@iAliHD OMG SHUT THE FUCK UP, I did all that and then it came up with a render error saying the bitrate was to small, and guess what, I fixed myself, i bet your thinking welldone SHerlock :O

LOL

[iAliHD]

@TheAsUNation Oh Good Job mate lol. How the hell did you read my future messages?

[TheAsUNation]

@iAliHD

I Am Sherlocks balls that is why

I Developed a brain after Chuck Norris Ripped me from sherlock himself XD

*Spooky exit*

[iAliHD]

@TheAsUNation lol ok

[TeehosGAMING]

@snowshredder82 i have windows vista 32bit and i have after effects cs4. i think its only one which works in 32 bit.

[walletmanandpoo]

can u make a tut on how to sync on after effects like u did here

[TehMushrooms]

Hey man , mind doing one for sniper shots?

[furyofnoobz]

@TehMushrooms ..... syncing sniper shots is so fucking easy.

[TehMushrooms]

@furyofnoobz Yeah it is however when most people sync the clip looks stupidly sped up something i havnt been able to fix until recently

[Spyk14David]

Why do you use 59 fps? Human eye can not see the more than 29. There is no need to put 59. Or, Am I wrong?

[MetalStormProject]

@Spyk14David Yeah. If you play a 30 frame and a 60 at the same time theres a huge diference. 60 frames looks alot smoother and you can also do alot more with a 60 frame video than a 30. For example when you do slow mo its looks real choppy at 30

[maxk880]

@Spyk14David no human eyes can see 1000 fps max lol

[PureBullcrap]

@maxk880 Actually any human with normal vision can see 1000fps. It's a matter of the brain registering the information about each frame that is the problem when dealing with such fast footage. It's not about the eyes, it's about the brain.

[guitarguy1067]

@Spyk14David if you play games...

to give you an example of the two

Call of duty is at 60fps

battle field bad company 2 is at 30fps

you can tell that call of duty is alot smoother

[MeHGaMiNg]

wheres after effects

[NEVERLEAVEmeHOUSE]

HI BROOK

[iMerXz]

does this work with twixtor pro?

[MetalStormProject]

@iMerXz Yeah thats what I used in the video

[iMerXz]

@MetalStormProject thought you said twixtor 4.5

[MetalStormProject]

@iMerXz twixtor 4.5 is pro

[iMerXz]

@MetalStormProject Oh i thought there was a difference haha thanks :)

[Schmirtzz]

Thanks, I Have A Whole Notepad File On How To Do This Now, I Will Never Forget How To Sync Again :D

[redbumblebeeHD]

thanks :) helped loads, how do you put music on your vids without youtube removing it?

[MetalStormProject]

@redbumblebeeHD =) the music just has to be copyright free, or if it does have copyright, search on youtube how to get rid of the copyright. hope this helps

[redbumblebeeHD]

@MetalStormProject cheers man, i never thought you'd reply :)

[MetalStormProject]

@redbumblebeeHD I reply to everyone who is not an idiot lol

[BladeNTheCrowd]

Bet you cant sync Skrillex.

very nice video my friend,helped allot,and easy to follow,subbed,faved and liked <3

[chaos249rocks]

how come when i twixtor my clip the audio is the same but the clip is slow mo

[MetalStormProject]

@chaos249rocks Yup thats normal. You have to use the original audio from the original clip =)

[UnderlinedDesigns]

Nice tutorial, but for future reference bumps and hills, lol are called audio spikes

[MetalStormProject]

@UnderlinedDesigns OMG thats the word I was thinking of haha. I couldnt remember the name for it when i was making the video haha. But thanks for that =)

[alibrovidz]

Any way to do it on Mac without Vegas?

[MetalStormProject]

@alibrovidz Not that I know of sorry

[DMDreamDesign]

@alibrovidz Final Cut Pro?

[alibrovidz]

@DMDreamDesign Yeah i'll get my school to put in on haha (:

[iGeckoGaming]

Subbed. Make more videos man!!!!!!!!

[zNcGaming]

It doesnt show the audio waves thing for my sound in gameplay or music it just shows a blank bar need help cause i want to match my music with my gun shops but i can do it until i get the waves back

[KeskasidvarGaming]

been workin with the last two loads of clips you let people have, I'll probably be finished with it tonight or tomorrow, I think youll like it when it's done

[ImBrianx]

what if your video cant stretch far enough to the next beat?

[trehhz]

@ImBrianx twix moar d00d or just find another beat closer or get creative n maybe put something in between like a cinematic. :)

[ImBrianx]

@trehhz k thnksssss!

[TodayIPlayRs]

omg! im still working on it .. didnt know how to and boom! he uploads a tut!! O_O

[MrFearlock]

subbed man, fantastic guide and your voice is chill and good and nice and cool :')

check my commentaries xD

[trehhz]

Sorry but I couldn't help myself from telling u such easy tips that really make ur life so much easier. It's a good habit to get into hot keying. Also, when syncing bullet by bullet I like to place markers at each beat. Hit m to place markers. So go through and place a marker at each beat instead of guessing where they are by the larger part in the audio waveform. I think I had a lot more to say but i cbfa :)

[MetalStormProject]

@trehhz Yeah you can go through like that and do it that way and put the markers etc. But Idk I like doing it the hard way I guess and yeah there are a few tricks I don't know. But yeah I tryed to make it easier for other people to do if I did it the way I did in the vid rather than add heaps of markers everywhere and make it confusing but I see what ur gettin at. =)

[trehhz]

@MetalStormProject Yeah haha, you've sorta inspired me to maybe start doing editing tutorials. :S

[MetalStormProject]

@trehhz Do it!

[trehhz]

@MetalStormProject Yeah maybe, Im just working on getting practice at editing progs, 3d compositing progs, music producing progs, etc. I'll get active soon though, should be fun :) I still haven't gotten round to using your first blops clip giveaway thingo yet :(

[MetalStormProject]

@trehhz haha algud. Just make some vids!

[trehhz]

Hmm, scratch that I actually ended up watching the whole thing. Okay some tips for you but u probs already know. The hotkey for detaching the video track from the audio is 'u' just click on the clip then hit u and they're apart and you can delete the audio etc. 'd' is the hotkey to go through each of the 4 edit tools above, so hit 'd' once to select the envelope tool or twice to use the selection edit tool (so you can click and drag around multiple clips n select all at once)..

[trehhz]

Great tutorial and video. Didn't watch all of it, cos I already know how to do this. BUT I'm sure it's packed with wonderful goodness and words of wisdom.

[MetalStormProject]

@JIZLhere I already have! In my teh nooby days.

/watch?v=LaEv30_GcKM
