To start,

I thoroughly enjoy the amazing work everyone in this community has put forth. I have been enjoying CH Videos for the past year and have finally undertaken in creating one myself. Before spending the plethora of hours it takes to complete an entire video, I have completed the Intro Round and have uploaded it. I am looking for input on how I can improve as I know its very rough and needs some refinement.

My main issue is acquiring videos. I have been using PH to download videos and they usually have some large watermark on them. I have a small library of videos I DL from torrent, but it is not enough to make an entire video. FYI, I used Adobe Premiere Pro CS5/After Effects CS5 and FL Studio 12.

The premise of my video (which I would like to be a series) is CH Blitzkreig; in between normal rounds there will either be a break or a 30-45 second lightning round of very fast beats.

Any input is welcome and thank you to all those who posted in the "Create your own CH video" thread, it was immensely helpful.

[EDIT]
I did not add any overlay graphics such as title text, beat count, etc. yet

Thanks,

Welcome to the CH creators club Always nice to see new attempts and a new perspective on CH videos. I'm intrigued by the "blitzkrieg" premise despite not being a fan of super fast or overly complex beat patterns.

I watched the video and I like what you have so far. Here's some suggestions on where I'd start:

First - Beat Meter:

Spoiler: show

First thing I would look into is refining your beat meter. Around the 2:55 mark where the beats become quicker, the beat meter is all over the place and I'd have difficulty ascertaining which part of each beat meter to stroke to.

This is your beat meter at 2:55.


This is the beat meter from Awesome X - Cum Harder:


See how much cleaner and clearer each of those beats are? Much easier to follow.

I'd recommend watching this. This is the video I used to learn how to make a beat meter:

I always play around with the settings for the beat meter in AE until it looks how I want it too. Just to share, here's the settings I used in my last CH video, Evolution:


If you have difficulty getting those beats down and cleaner, then maybe try changing the sound effect you used too. I downloaded a set of free rim shot samples. I forget where from, but the whole file had about 40+ different effects.

EDIT: Also, always create your beat meter using an audio file WITHOUT the music. So, line your beats up with the song you're using then render that separately to the music. If you render the beat meter with the music playing too, it will look all messy and won't be as clean.

I know you're not using Vegas, but here's a screenshot example of what I do:

So as you can see, my beats are on a separate line to the main audio file. This way I can line the beats up in time with the music, then mute the audio file and create a beat file separate to the audio. Using this separate .mp3 file will help give you cleaner beat meters too.

Second - Acquiring material:

Spoiler: show

Acquiring the material that fits to how you want to make the video is hands down, THE most difficult part of making a CH video (imo). I still have the folder containing all the material I used to make Evolution. It currently sits at 410gb. I organised my material by round, I downloaded 39 videos for round 01, and I only used 8 of those. Finding material is the part I hate the most. Not once have I used Pornhub though.

As with last time someone asked this, I don't know what Milovana's rules are regarding copyrighted material so I won't post any direct links either in threads or in PMs. There are however some torrent sites dedicated to porn, and there are also some forums where people post videos/pictures ripped from paid sites. A lot of which have their sites laid out very efficiently so you can find threads dedicated to specific models, or fetish and even complete site rips.

The downside to these forums is that they tend to use some shitty file hosts like K2S, rapidgator and the such. I don't mind paying for a couple of these hosts as they give me access to damn near every premium porn site for less than the cost of one. However, If you don't pay they severely bottle-neck your download speed and tend to only let you download one file at a time. Not practical in anyway shape or form, since I've seen thumbnails of a video and thought: PERFECT! Just to download it and find out it's shit (remember, 39 videos downloaded for round one... only used 8...)

Depositfiles is one of the ones I use, If I'm not logged in, a singe video could take an hour or two to download (again not in anyway practical). If I am logged in to my premium account, a single file can download in less than 30 seconds. Should you want to take this route like I do, a google search for "porn forum" would send you in the right direction.

There are plenty of porn outlets on the internet, just depends on how long you're prepared to look.

Third - Take your time:

Spoiler: show

Every now and then, I would take the time out just to render my incomplete video in Sony Vegas just to see how it's progressing. I don't know how powerful your system is, or how the video software you're using works but sometimes when I try to watch the preview in Vegas, it doesn't always look great. It can stutter a bit, or take a fraction of a second longer to cut between scenes than it actually should. It can make you edit things out and make things worse.

I did this A LOT! and it is surprising how many scenes that popped up where I'd missed a single frame that seemed to add a quick flash image of a scene change, like the subliminal messages they snuck into Fight Club lol. I'd definitely recommend proof watching your videos every now and then, that definitely helps.

Any thing else you're unsure of, I'll help as best I can. Best of luck and I look forward to seeing more.

Wow! Really good work!

(And i love Veronica Rodriguez lol)

i suggest you to do the beat meter transparent, to see through it. (sometimes it bother)
