Story Creator — Simple online video editing for digital creators

@juan_perez2 Haha thanks, I love synthwave, the movie Drive got me hooked on it. I plan to expand the music selection soon though. Mobile support will come once I build a team. My core focus right now is growth, I cant't wait to build it but it'll have to hold off for now. I may release a basic mobile version to do quick video editing tasks, still brainstorming ideas around the future of video. Whatever it is, I certainly want to be a part of it. Keep in touch, we're going to make it happen together.

@michael_joseph_aubry makes complete sense. The future of video and video editing is really exciting, love seeing apps like this. Best of luck and will continue to test our Story Creator with some projects. Synthwave~ yess!!!

@michael_joseph_aubry Congratulations on the launch of Story Creator. Story Creator could be solving this need gap - 'Simple Video editor for beginner youtubers' posted on my problem validation platform - https://needgap.com/problems/148.... You're welcome to explain how Story Creator solves their problem for Story Creator to be found easily by those who need it.

@owenfar1 Thanks for the kind words that means a lot to me

@michael_joseph_aubry Glad you got it reposted properly! And my opinion still stands, this is a-m-a-z-i-n-g! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

@veebuv Awesome would love to have you. Server costs are expensive -- I think overtime I will be able to cut it down. For the next two years I have AWS costs covered from the start up plans that I am on. So two years minimum, that is for certain. I don't plan on shutting it down and I hope to build a great team to keep this thing alive if I get hit by a bus. Where did you send the message? I'll keep my eye out for it. Cheers!

@michael_joseph_aubry Thats fair to hear! Thanks for that - i'll get on the lifetime later today :) I sent you a message on LinkedIn but all good - you have a great response here, probably something others would ask too! Looking forward to using this and seeing it grow!

@mattcrail Can't wait to see it. Keep the vlogs coming, always fun seeing users creations :)

@futhey Awesome, thanks for the kind words. Yes, that was on my mind today. A function was lost due to a major migration a few weeks ago. I will put that as a higher priority for the next users. I apologize if that was annoying. Super glad you gave it a shot and liked it though :)

@michael_joseph_aubry Yeah, everything was smooth & super intuitive, which is why little things like that stand out :) Second time seeing the tutorial was like "Wait, you forgot about me? I just made this dumb video where I didn't even change the placeholder text. I thought we were friends?" Took like 10 seconds to remake :D

@doomhammer I like Promo and was inspired by it's simplicity but I felt it was limited. The original inspiration came from my frustration with not being able to produce videos faster. When IG stories came a long I had an epiphany that video doesn't need to be hard and that video is powerful. While stories on IG are amazing it's way too raw sometimes -- which is great under certain contexts. In the case you want to be a bit more creative with the narrative and add elements that give it a certain touch that you get from feature films, documentaries, and professional videos that move you. You need some more tools and features to achieve that type of video. I wanted to offer that while maintaining simplicity. Video creation should be like putting Legos together.

@michael_joseph_aubry I love this explanation. I think I'll try it, the next time I have to edit a video. For now, the experience unfortunately sucks most of the time :(

@cbsudu A core focus of mine is to actually provide users with a marketplace of assets. Pre-made elements, templates, and effects. Not only offer the highest quality interface and experience. My vision is to offer tremendous value at the click of a button and open the door for other creators. I don't know about those other companies much, but I will tell you that they need to be prepared to be in a marketplace with a 20/10 passionate creator who is giving everything towards building the best product -- they will need to have a stronger vision, execution, and more persistence. If they do, then it will certainly be tough, no one said it would be easy. I believe it's worth it (despite the odds) and I believe I am the person to make it happen. I'm not going out without making a dent in this space. The fact is I am one person currently when I expand my resources, I plan to build something even more amazing. This is just the beginning, I am 6 months in, and I am here to make some noise. Next phase I plan to assemble a brilliant team and take this thing beyond the moon.

@michael_joseph_aubry Love your energy man. That's great stuff for a single person startup. All the best :)

@corey_haines Glad it was easy for you to use. Thanks for the kind words Corey.

@shraddhasrivastava Congratulations, building things are hard. I have to give you and the team props. I am curious to know how you are different. Definitely going to take a look. Thanks for sharing.

@michael_joseph_aubry Hey Michael, Agreed. It is really hard :-| Thanks for asking! Browsee has automatic tagging on sessions based on user behavior like rage, confusion, searching, u-turns, high engagement, etc which helps you in filtering only the relevant sessions to watch. We have a page story which is a much more detailed version of heatmaps where you get behavioral clusters to understand what the users who are dropping tend to do and what those who convert do. Also, we give you a user engagement board to give clear details of how your registered users are using your product, and soon we will be adding events based feedback forms! Also, our pricing plans and forever free plan is better suited for startups :) let me know if I can help you with something. Although, your product already looks great :)

@steventey Thanks Steven. The future is here, everyone now has a platform. It is my goal to give them the tools to get their message out there. Just like any traditional media company would but in half the time and cost.

@anitakirkovska thanks for the kind words Anita. I’m so stoked to have you on board using the product and glad to be one of your current favorites.

@rememberlenny You're the best, also I really appreciate the feedback you immediately gave me. It helped the product significantly.

@iamvarunnair Glad to hear that and thanks for the kind words. That means a lot.

@gaurabhmathure Currently it's 10 minutes. With motion graphics and a lot going on that can eat up a lot of resources. I am working on scaling out the infrastructure. Once the system can consistently handle 10 minute videos with ease you can expect the limit to be increased :)

@patte87 I cant wait to build that. Once I grow a team you bet we are going to be tackling this. I want to describe how to make a video to Alexa and have a news worthy video on Social Media. That would be epic.

@ara_ghougassian1 Thanks for the kind words Ara and hopping on the discussion. I've been thinking about your launch all week and trying to replicate what you and your team has done. Inspired by you man, keep going with Fluent -- you guys are making an impact.

@lagilliland1 Awesome to hear that. You will get access to all the Pro features and will be able to scale with Pro as the features improve. Essentially you will get 5GB of upload storage and 20 videos per month that are watermark free and HD. You will get support and bug fixes. A full length HD movie tends to be 2GB-3GB, so storage shouldn't be an issue. If 20 videos is not enough, then I am open to discussing privately. Let me know if you have any more questions. This deal will run out soon though.

@thiscodeworks Sometimes I ask myself how is it even possible haha. Thanks for the kind words Mishka!

@juancolamendy Thats good to hear. Thanks for the upvote that means a lot to me.

@max_haining1 Just connected with you on Twitter. I love this persistence. We should talk!
