Hello, everybody, and welcome back to my channel, Jennifer
Marie, where I teach you different ways that you can
make money online working from home. So I have two different
monetized YouTube channels, and both of them are making me
money each month. And now I show my face on a lot of my
videos, but not all of them, you do not have to show your
face on YouTube in order to make money on YouTube or have
a successful channel. So in today's video, I'm going to
talk to you about doing unboxing videos or product
reviews. And you do not have to use new products either you
can use any sort of product you have around your house.
I'm also going to talk about how you can make money on
YouTube without having a monetized channel with this
method. So first of all, do you buy a lot of products from
Amazon or online? Or do you do a lot of shopping in stores,
or just you have a lot of things around your house,
there are 1000s of product reviews and unboxing videos
with millions of views on social media. You don't need
to record your face or your voice for either of these. Of
course, using your voice does help but it's not necessary.
You just have to record the unboxing process and
demonstrate how to set up or use the product. So here is an
example channel. This guy unboxes all sorts of different
games or shows old vintage gaming systems. There are
channels like this with board games with toys, electronics,
sports, you name it. So what do you need, you need a camera
or mobile phone, you need a microphone. If you want to use
your voice, you need an overhead tripod I'm going to
show you the one I use and I also have a link to it in the
description below this video, you have to have products to
unbox or review. These can be new products or products you
already own. And then you can also use royalty free
background music and I'm going to show you a website where
you can get background music that you can use in your
videos for free. So how do you make a review video. First of
all, you're going to find your product to unbox review or
demonstrate. You have to show how to set up or use the
product or what the box contains. Record yourself
opening the product from the box and removing it from the
packaging with your phone and camera. Use an overhead tripod
for easy filming. Again, find royalty free music to use in
the background. Then use a video editor to compile videos
and music. I'm going to show you how to do this with
filmora which is a very affordable video editing
software and then publish to YouTube Instagram, Facebook or
Tik Tok. And a way to make money on these videos if your
channel has not yet been monetized, is to become an
Amazon affiliate to earn small commissions if someone uses
your link to purchase a product from Amazon, so even
if they click on your Amazon link to view the product you
are reviewing and choose to buy another product on Amazon,
you will still get a small commission. So this is the
setup that I have for this video I'm going to do I have
my table I have my box from Amazon. But you can see that
this is the overhead video stand phone holder. So for
this, I didn't even use my professional camera, I just
use my phone, my mobile phone and I placed it right in here
in this phone holder and it can swivel whichever way you
want. And this boom arm attaches to the table. And so
I can just swivel this and move and record myself as I'm
unboxing it's also nice to have a little decoration so it
looks good in the frame. Again, just find your product
that you want to demonstrate it can be new out of the box,
or it can be any sort of product or board game that you
want to show or demonstrate. So after you record all of
your footage, I'm going to show you how you can put
together this type of video using filmora in the
description below this video I have linked you to this
product that I use for this type of filming. And I also
have a full video on three different methods to do
overhead videos that I will also link you to in the
description below this video. Okay, so I've just opened up
filmora you can get a link to the free trial of filmora by
clicking on the link below this video. And what we're
going to do is click on Import Media and then just drag to
import the media that we want to work with and click open.
So the first thing I want to do is work with this clip here
that I've taken of me unboxing these badminton birdies I
bought online, this might pop up asking if you want to
change the project settings, I'm just going to keep it the
project set
things. So this orange red bar here is your playhead. And
this allows you to scroll through the video and cut and
split different sections. For this video, we're not going to
use voice. So what I want you to do is right click and go to
mute, so that will silence This video clip. Now I want to
change and edit the color of the video because it looks a
little dull. I'm going to double click on the clip, and
then I'm going to click Advanced. This is advanced
color correction. And you can see we have all these
different presets that will change the way your video
looks. Under all presets, click on common. And then here
we can try out a few that we like. And I'm just going to
click here on the boost color one, because it makes it a
little brighter, you can drag through to preview it if you
want. And then click OK. And then OK again. So now I want
to add a title, we're going to click on titles, and then
titles on the side. And then here we're going to choose a
free and that way we see only the titles that are included
with our version of filmora. So you can choose any of these
titles, and then drag it down below on top of the video
track. And you can see that that is what the title will
look like. So to change the text, we double click on it.
And let's just put le d, badminton birdies, Rubio, and
you can click on the nodes to adjust the size, and click and
drag to adjust the positioning as well. So if we put our
playhead to the beginning and press play, that is what it
will look like when it pops up.
You can make the title longer by clicking and dragging. And
that way the title will last a little bit longer before it
disappears. Okay, so this is our video, it's going a little
slowly for me, I want this to be fast as I'm unboxing it, so
I'm going to adjust this speed. So let's go until I
have the box open. And we're going to click and then press
split to split the video here. Now to adjust the speed, we're
going to right click, go to uniform speed. And then we're
going to bring it up to around 2.75. Okay, and that way it
will be sped up a bit.
You can do that with as many sections as you like.
And let's say we want to add some text. We're showing that
this product contains six different birdies.
You can add a title again, or any of the text again choosing
free. So let's click and drag. And let's say here we want to
put includes six led birdies.
And if you want to cut out a portion of your video, just
click on the video clip and click the scissors icon and
then click on this piece you want to delete and press the
Delete key and that will erase that portion.
Okay, so now you want to show how the product works. In this
case, I want to demonstrate that to turn on the birdies,
we have to click the little switch inside. So we want to
add some text there. So again, I'm going to use the same
title. Okay and add any other text as you need.
Again, just dragging the playhead and clicking this
icon to split the clips and clicking on the piece you want
to delete and pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
We can go back to media and click on another video clip
you want to add. So let's say I want to show what the
product looks like at night I do something like this. Again,
if you want to mute the clip, right click mute. And again
you can add more title as you need.
So once you've added all of your text,
you can add transitions between the clips by clicking
on transitions. And there are all sorts of really cool
transitions that you can use.
And to use a transition just click on it and drag it
between the two clips you want to make the transition and to
preview. Just click and press play.
So your videos can be as complex or simple as you
Want. This is just a really simple example of how you can
add text and video footage together. But if you want to
add a track with a voiceover, you could click here on add
audio track, and then add an voiceover. For example,
saying, Okay, now I'm opening up the box, you can see it
contains six birdies, the birdies are switched on with
the light switch here, and they look great at night. But
we're just going to add a song. So it sounds nice. So
what you can do to get free royalty free music is go to
pixabay.com/music. And there are all sorts of 1000s of
music and audio tracks that you can use. You can go here,
click on, you know any of these genres. I like soft
house, and they've got all sorts of nice, upbeat sort of
music, and to download one just click here on download.
And then crediting is not required. And you can use this
in your video. So to add the music, we'll go back to media,
we'll right click go import, select your audio file, and
then drag the audio file on one of the audio tracks
beneath your video. And then we're going to cut the audio
right when the video ends. So we'll click on the Split icon
with the audio tracks selected, then click on this
piece here and choose Delete. Now we can zoom up on our
timeline, and click on the audio track and then click and
drag so that it ends when our video ends. We also might want
to add a fade out so it doesn't cut off abruptly. And
you can see this little marker icon. So if we click and drag,
this will have a nice fade out as the song ends. You could
also do that with the beginning of the track and
have a nice fade in. If you want to edit the volume of the
clip, just double click and here on the side, you can make
this down so it's not going to be too loud the audio, you can
also change the fade in and fade out here as well if you
don't want to do it the first way I showed you. And if you
were adding a voiceover, you could do audio ducking so that
the audio would be not as loud as the voiceover. And then
click OK.
So this is what our video will look like. And you can make
any edits that you want. And once you're done and you're
ready to export, you're going to click Export.
And then I just like to export as mp4, you can adjust your
settings so you can make sure it's the best quality if you
want to is okay and then just choose where you want to save
it and name the video. So let's go led birdies Unboxing
Review Video export, so it will begin converting and
exporting your video. And when you're done, you can upload
this to any sort of platform you want like YouTube or you
could format it so you could upload it to tic toc. And if
your channel is not big enough yet to be monetized, you can
add an Amazon affiliate link by signing up to the Amazon
affiliate program. And if anyone purchased this LED
Birdy for example, or another product that you are
demonstrating you would get a small commission even if they
weren't buying that exact product but a similar product
or they decided to do their shopping on Amazon after they
clicked your link, you would get a commission so now we're
going to watch our little review video and you can see
just how easy it is to create this sort of video to upload
on Youtube without having to show your face.
