"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Lot of people doing acceptable video editing on youtube nowadays, where they can bring pictures up on the sceen during the video etc

I dont believe that half of them are PC whizkids, so there must be something I dont know. :rofl: I think I usedlightworks before, But i dont remember it being called that back then
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I use Shotcut for most of what I do. There's also a program called Lightworks that is also pretty good. Both programs are free, and there are youtube tutorials on how to use them.

Yeah, but I don't think they run premiere pro over an ongoing stream. Premiere is usually used to edit videos AFTER they were made not during. During a livestream, I'd expect the computer to be running pretty hot from having Premiere, 4k recording, and a game or something running in the background. It's probably something much simpler.

I recommend Davinci Resolve. It's free, arguably has the best tools for color grading, and comes with Fusion for compositing where After Effects would normally be used. Some advanced features are paid, but it's still cheaper than an Adobe subscription.

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

doesnt need to get to technical,the most i want to do, is upload thumbnail pictures into the screen whilst Im talking. that kind of thing

a bit like when someone shows weight loss results and they bring up a little a thumbnail video of their body when then they first started, but they are still talking in the main part of the screen
