Yay, the first thousand. However, without monetization,
this is still worthless, so "we have a job to do". Well, in this video, I'm going
to tell you a very secret secret, which is a mistake that
99% of YouTubers make, and even more other content makers, so only here and now
you're going to learn how to download videos without
SMS, registration and online... STOP! So...
This is exactly the problem. Namely, the music track in the video. But first things first. You probably thought that I, as a
YouTuber with a fickle 10-year experience (about which I have a separate
video on this channel), would tell you the real secret
behind the scenes of Youtube. Although, it is unlikely that you
had such high expectations of me. Indeed, my whole complaint about
the v
ast majority of content makers on any social media platform (Youtube, and especially TikTok, which I will
definitely have a video about in the future) is the dominance of music in the video. And now I will explain what
exactly the problem is. First, here's a counter-question
in the style of "for what?". Imagine yourself as a content maker (or if you already are, you can
imagine yourself in a better pos
ition) and imagine that you already have a ready-made,
consolidated project on a topic that you really like. But then there's an additional
voice in your head that tells you: "put on some music". And this is where the counter-question
"for what?" should arise. That is, what will be the
realized idea in adding music? At certain moments, or
just in the background? Do you want to create certain su
ggestions,
evoke a certain emotion, memory, thought? I'm sure that most of the
content makers who add this music use one of two solutions
to this question: Either "everyone does it, so that's why
I do it," or "it's boring without music." And the second point is a
rather dangerous thought, especially when in recent years such a problem as
"clip thinking" has emerged in the world society, whereby
the reader or the viewer, in the event of even the slightest
boredom while watching a material, is ready to immediately replace this material with
something else for a new dose of dopamine, etc. This is to simplify things
as much as possible. And many content makers may think that that just a voice telling something, even about something
very interesting and in a very interesting style, but without music, it ca
n be boring. And as a result, viewers don't
watch his material to the end, because they can switch to something
more interesting in one click. That's why it would be necessary to add
music to make it a "non-boring story", as well as sharper editing, subtitles
with effects for every 1-2 words, some video inserts with memes
or just funny situations... Well, you get the idea. I'm not saying that m
usic is the main toxic
"metacontent thing" in terms of keeping attention, but it's just that even if a
creator doesn't know about memes, or doesn't know how to make
these flickering subtitles, they will always have some
kind of experience with music. And therefore, adding music
will potentially be the easiest and the most effective
way to "improve video". Secondly, there is an additional
counter question in the style of "how?". Well, the answer can be in the style
shown at the very beginning of the video. That is, even if you, as a content maker, are
solving the issue of adding music to a video, don't forget about this thing called BALANCE! Because even if you just want
to add music as a background, you may miscalculate the settings
and end up with the following, that at some particul
ar moment
(or during the whole duration) the music will either start to interfere with the
conversation or interrupt it altogether with its intensity. And then the viewer-listener
will have an unpleasant feeling, that the editor has forgotten
about this very balance. Because even if, again, the
music is just background noise, if you go a little too far
with the volume-intensity. this music will
draw too
much attention to itself. And if you don't choose the right
volume-intensity, you won't hear the music at all. And then we come back
to the first question: "For what? To just add it, so that
it won't even be heard as a result?" But that's not all. Third, many content makers
use not just music, but songs. And here an additional question arises: "Do you even know the
lyrics to th
is song?". Because this often applies to
non-English songs, and it can happen, that the song chosen for the video
can have quite ambiguous meanings. For example, I remember a moment when children
were bought toys with a dancing cactus, which sang some kind of gibberish. But in fact, this gibberish
was a Polish song by Cypisolo called "Gdzie Jest Biały Węgorz". Which, literally from the second
l
ine, immediately begins to hint at "magic white powder"... And this is in a
children's toy, "cool"... No, I'm sure many of you know this song
rather from the video of a cow dancing, but this combination of
video and audio is more of a "spontaneous shіtpоsting
that somehow works". And as a content maker, you don't want every first or
second video you make to be perceived as a shіtроst, do you? O
f course you don't. And even more so if I
tell you from my side, when I'm listening to a non-English
song (although it's also English), I try not to look up the
lyrics and/or translation, so that I don't get
too disappointed later. And a very small, fourthly, you know,
this very insignificant factor, like... COPYRIGHT! You know, the very same copyright that
will get on the nerves of all
those who just thinks about inserting some
mega-popular or currently memorable song. And not even a very mega-popular one. Even if it's for 5 seconds. And even if this use falls
under the so-called "fair use". If Youtube notices that you have
copyrighted music in your video, the system either blocks the
video (mostly in certain regions, or globally, if you decide to insert something
from Micha
el Jackson or Linkin Park), or it takes all the money
from video monetization. And at the same time, it can
lower its search results. And then the author on
Youtube has 2 options either cut this passage completely, or use the option of "soft"
removal of the music. But the second option will still
severely damage the audio track, which will raise the same
first question again. "
You inserted music for what?". Why would you do such nonsense at this stage
and still delete this music from the video? Of course, you can try
to "cheat the system" and use a cover or remix of
a popular song/music instead. Are you sure that this
is how copyright works? Don't forget that the author of
a work has rights to the music, and there are certain rights of the person who
actually performe
d (or compiled) the music. And the fact that Beethoven's Symphony
No. 9 is in the public domain, meaning that anyone can use
this melody for any purpose, including commercial purposes, does not give you the right to use a recording of this
symphony performed by a particular symphony orchestra. Because the sound engineer/recording studio that has
obtained permission in advance to record the same orchestra has th
e rights to record
this particular performance. And it works the same way for
most cover or remix artists. But even if you're lucky
enough to know someone who has created their own cover or
remix of the exact song/melody you want, and you've managed to negotiate a deal to
use it for your video without any obstacles, it may happen that the rights to this cover
or remix actually belong not to the author,
but to the label that signed
a contract with that author. And it doesn't matter if it was
before or after your "deal", because labels often have
enough money and other resources to prove that their agreements
with the author are retroactive. What do you have? 200 dollars and a book
called "Law for Dummies"? Well, even if you try to
bypass this whole problem and create a search q
uery
"download music without copyright", then, first of all, you may still
come across music with copyright, but you've just been
lied to a little bit. And even if you do find music that does not
require any actions, conditions, agreements, etc... Then the following interesting
situation can happen... That you will come across "patent trolls,"
only in this case it concerns music on Youtube. Beca
use there are many companies that add this
very music to the Content ID system for free use, and then strike all the
users who decide to use it, who decide to use this music
to monetize their videos. And if you encounter such a case, you will have to wait for
additional time to file an appeal, to prove that you are right and they are wrong,
and that it shouldn't be like this at all. And this is addition
al time spent. And we have this result: - You can add music that
doesn't carry any meaning; - you can adjust its volume incorrectly, so that it either won't be heard or
will interfere with other things; - you might add music or a song whose title
and context contrast with what you're showing or what you want to talk about; - You will probably want to add
music that is protected by copyright, o
r artist's rights; - it is not a guarantee that by using
so-called "copyright-free music" you won't come across either the
real author or a pseudo-author, who decides to take advantage of
your ignorance for his own benefit. And if you're thinking of
inserting music into your video, you can easily solve all of these (and
maybe some more) problems mentioned above - then your music will most likely
fit perfectly into your video. Or, given these conditions,
just don't add any music at all and don't care about these
issues at all, like me. Probably the only way to use music on Youtube
that will not cause problems 100% of the time is to use music from the
Youtube music library itself. Do you remember these tunes that
were quite popular at the time (and probably still are): ♪ If I Had a Chic
ken - Kevin MacLeod ♪ ♪ Spring In My Step - Silent Partner ♪ ♪ Summer Smile - Silent Partner ♪ ♪ Jazz In Paris - Media
Right Productions ♪ ♪ Get Outside! - Jason Farnham ♪ ♪ Blue Skies - Silent Partner ♪ ♪ Sugar Zone - Silent Partner ♪ So, all this music is available
in the Youtube music library and you can use it in your
videos without any problems (just note that some of them require you to
specify the
name of the song and the author in the description). And it's probably for this reason of accessibility
and ease of use that this music is so popular, that we got tired of it 8 years ago. But it is still used
on children's channels or channels aimed at an audience
close to the age of children. Does TikTok have this problem? Given that many memes
and everything related have gained p
opularity with
the direct use of music, they probably just don't care
about this copyright issue. And I say "probably" because I don't
use TikTok and I'm not going to. But I will definitely talk about
TikTok, and not about its good side, because we are in a very
unpleasant situation. As content creators. But this will definitely
not be the next video, and that's it for me, and I'll see
you in the next video, whatever it is.

От "шоб шо?" - це взагалі питання яке треба задавати собі періодично)
Особисто для мене це дуже цікава тема, як для контентмейкера-початківця. Стосовно сенсу використання музики я не переймаюсь, бо чітко знаю що і для чого я буду використовувати + як не крути, відео без якої небудь мелодії досить монотоне і сприймається скоріше як лекція в універі (не в твій адрес, якщо що😊) Ось що дійсно є вагомою проблемою так це права. Мене рятує музика з ігор яку я часто використовую, до того ж ця сама ігрова музика не має тексту і багатослойного підтексту, така музика ідеальна для фону і створює антураж, доповнюючи думки автора відео) Хоча іноді я і сам помічаю, що музика в мене занадто гучна😬 я вчусь з цим якось справлятись. Тай загалом дуже люблю музику) це моє натхнення для створення відео, малюнків. Тому в мене саме з музики постає творчий задум, а сам матеріал підпадає під питання "Блін, про що таке відео зробити, щоб музика тут була доречна?🤔" Дякую за матеріал, мутсера, удачі!
До речі я зі здивуванням дізнався, що неофіційний гімн України, "Україно", належить якомусь лейблу, і не просто блокує монетизацію, а стягує 100 відсотків доходу.
Ну стосовно фонотеки, то трохи не погоджусь, бо за останні роки там з'явилось багато хорошої музики, і часто такої, що особливо ніхто її ще не використовував. Принаймні я коли робив відео для свого каналу, то часто нею користувався. Звичайно головне робити це грамотно і не пхати все підряд в купу аби було)
я вирішував ці питання більш менш, завдяки тому що Українські патріотичні автори, дозволили використання власної музики у youtube після 24 лютого. А до того я не переймався монетизацією. Бо в мене її не було.
Брудна Стіна - це той 1%, який класно використовує музику в переходах між розділами 👍
Я так робив щоб заповнити пустоту, раніше я робив ґайди на ютубі, і там було дуже багато моменті просто тишини, коли я показував що треба робити, і це просто дивно виглядало, тож я додавав тихий лов-фай без авторських прав, і мені здебільшого везло
Мені набагато більше подобаються відео без фонової музики, але дійсно, багато людей, на жаль, тулять її
Українсько мовний канал❤🌻☺️
Канал "NCR music", по ідеї, без авторських прав і дозволяє довільне використання
Особливо прикольно, коли, така музика, на якомусь відео, яке вчитель кидає.
Що ж , лекше зробити свою музику, але можливо ютуб до цього докопається
