I got a good question today about the process I use to make Vines. Here’s a high level overview:

Capture:

VHS to DVD – Funai (I also do have a secondary VCR for watching tapes while I rip)

Upload

Vine Client – This tool uploads videos directly to your Vine account (Without the little hiccup of the mobile app

Encoding:

Handbrake – My favorite encoding software (IT’S FREE!)

Editing:

Adobe Premiere – Video
Adobe Audition – Audio

Settings! How much fun!

Handbrake – Only one change from Default:

A link to the settings for Import in Handbrake

Video Export after Editing:

I don’t ever mess with the audio settings as they’ve served just fine.

If this helps you or I’m doing something super Stupid let me know at @tuckersavage!  Happy fucking Friday!
