When someone takes videos with their iPhone and emails them to you, you may want to upload them to YouTube. This lesson explains how to save, edit, merge and upload them to YouTube.
The first thing you need to do is save the videos your friend emails you. Double click on the name of a video. Select File > Save as and save each movie in your movie folder with a descriptive name.
In the above image on the right the Record computer audio box has been checked. To find the black menu, you can click on the camera icon and then select configure recording.
1. Click the camera icon again and select record.
2. Open the videos you saved and play them on full screen.
3. After you have finished playing all of your videos, minimize Quicktime (or whatever your video player was.) Then click on the camera icon and select "stop record".
It is now time to edit your little video with ScreenFlow. Look at the timeline. It is one long rectangle representing everything that was just recorded. Hopefully there will be much more video than you need.
8. Delete any left-over clips that you do not want.
9. In case something goes wrong, save it now with a descriptive name.
3. If you do not have your aspect ratio set up properly, you cannot edit YouTube videos properly. The sides of your YouTube video will display either black bars or else unwanted parts of your computer screen.
5. Where it says "canvas", change the first and second numbers to 1280 and 720 respectively. Then click on "Apply".
If you still cannot get ScreenFlow to work for you, go to lesson 3. The notes above have been expanded upon.
