Speaker A

Hello, welcome to the first ever tactical analyst course that covers everything you need to know from beginner to advanced. In this course, we're going to be very direct, very forward, and give you exactly what you need to get the skills and the tools and

00:19

Speaker A

the experience so you can become a professional tactical analyst. Okay? So, I'm not going to waste your time with introductions and whatever. We're just going to get straight into the work.

00:28

Speaker A

So come with me now. I'm going to show you what it's like to be an analyst and I'm going to give you all the details that you need to know. So this is my actual home screen that you see in front

00:40

Speaker A

of you right now. And basically what you need to know is that there are many softwares and many tools that you can try out there. But I'm going to give you the one that is the best. And this is

00:50

Speaker A

not any affiliate. This is just the cheapest one. So there's no reason to go for anything else. And it's the one that has the most tools that you need. Okay, there's a bit of a learning curve, but we're going to get over that quickly.

01:01

Speaker A

So, after that, you can be much more fluent with the work that you do. So, in front of you, you see the different work that I do. Obviously, with my work with the national team, I have many different

01:13

Speaker A

ones that I use, but I also work with a few clubs here and abroad. So, I'm going to show you some things from a bunch of different stuff. Let's start with the Qatar one. This is a team that we played

01:24

Speaker A

in the under 23 league there which is the Olympic league which basically means the pro league and then there's the team B and usually the pro league last year we finished mid table maybe around sixth or seventh and the year before that we

01:39

Speaker A

were 10th. So through the analysis we actually won the league for the first time ever with this club. So in front of you you see many different files and folders and whatever. And the first thing that you need to know, and I'm

01:52

Speaker A

going to start from scratch, is you need to get the match that you have. Now, to get the match, it depends where you are and what your club already has, but let's just call this new match. So, this

02:03

Speaker A

is empty. The first thing you need to do in anything is to have your match. We're going to talk about trainings later.

02:09

Speaker A

Now, it's just a match. How can you get this? Well, it depends. It depends on the camera that your club has. It depends if you're working with the club that you're with or abroad. It depends on the file. It depends on the

02:21

Speaker A

tools that you have now. And there's a specific video on what you do for that.

02:24

Speaker A

But I'm just going to go with the most basic one now, which is if the match is on YouTube. And if it isn't, I also have the specific tools that I use for each one because there are many. And one of

02:34

Speaker A

your skills is to be able to convert the video file in the fastest way possible, no matter whatever way you get it with.

02:41

Speaker A

So, I'm just going to use one that I have from YouTube and I'm going to show you, for example, one that I have with a set that we played with. So, here I have the matches that we had that

02:53

Speaker A

we played against. So, if your files are okay, cut continue. So, I'm going to import the file. I'm going to search for Assad because this is where I downloaded the match. So this is versus Ali. And so this is the

03:12

Speaker A

match. This is the full recording. Sometimes you don't get this professional recording like I'll show you in a bit. The Lebanese League, we don't have stuff that are this good.

03:20

Speaker A

But here's what you see in front of you. Basically on the left side right here, you have what is basically the tagging. Tagging is basically dividing the match into moments instead of it being everything. Because as a coach,

03:36

Speaker A

can you train 25 different things at the same time? Can you train shooting and passing and dribbling and hitting the ball and defending and everything to one player at the same time? You can't. When you're a coach, you focus on one

03:48

Speaker A

objective or one topic. And this is just basic learning all the time. Which means if you actually want to analyze, you need to follow the same principle, which is you need to look at one thing each time. And now what we're going to look

04:01

Speaker A

at depends. So the first thing you need to do is to actually tag the match into different moments. And so this is what you see here. We can have the buildup.

04:09

Speaker A

We can have the progression phase. We can have the final third phase. And then there's the defending ones, low block, mid block, high press, transitions, and whatever. Now, this is a specific football language that some people use.

04:21

Speaker A

Someone else might not even care about buildup. Like if your league is all about long balls, then you might actually care about that more. Like why would you look at a buildup if most of it is played long? So this is where also

04:33

Speaker A

the stuff that you learn online you shouldn't actually follow all the time. Okay, but now let's get into this one.

04:39

Speaker A

I'm going to start from the start. A lot of the times you might get the stream that's starting somewhere and then you have to go somewhere else. First step, obviously you need to have the lineups so you can actually know what you're

04:49

Speaker A

analyzing. Now this could be a step two if at first you just want to tag and not focus on anything. But I do suggest you put the lineups in front of you here.

04:56

Speaker A

You could screenshot it. On Windows that's Windows shift S. And if you're on Mac, I'll give you the shortcuts later.

05:02

Speaker A

So now I just screenshotted it and that way I can put it somewhere and that way I can put it somewhere next to me. So, and that way I can put it somewhere next to me so that when I'm actually looking

05:34

Speaker A

at things, I can see like, oh, this is this player, this is that player. Now, in this case, in fact, I'm not with a set. This is the opponent team. So, I'm actually analyzing the opponent. So, the way I look at it might be different

05:45

Speaker A

because I don't know them well enough yet. But the more you watch, the more you realize why they did certain patterns and why others they didn't. Okay, so now the match has started.

05:56

Speaker A

Here's what's happening. I said the white team is actually defending in this case. And we can see they have a line which is kind of in the middle which is what we call low block. I assume that you already know what that means. If you

06:06

Speaker A

don't, there's a specific video for that. So here I'm not actually analyzing anything. I'm just looking here and I'm pressing mid block. Okay. Now there's a more advanced version that we get to later, but this is the basic one. Mid

06:20

Speaker A

block. Okay. So now we saw do a specific kind of play. They went deep. With the club, I actually have a specific button here which is called D play which is when someone tries to play a pass

06:31

Speaker A

between the lines to a striker. But here I don't have it. But what I have I could put this as usually is a key play which is this one. And you can see next to key play there's the button called K. What

06:41

Speaker A

does K mean? I think I can zoom here. Let me show you actually. So if here you see the button it has K on it. So when I press K, when I press the button something happens.

06:53

Speaker A

Okay. Basically, I pressed on it. Another way is if I'm actually on the keyboard, that means I could just press the button K and that way it happens.

07:00

Speaker A

And this is just so you can get faster and I'm going to go through these a bit later. But now to get to the coding board again. So here we're tagging the things as they're happening. The key play just happened and I'm saving it.

07:11

Speaker A

And on the right side, you can see everything is actually being saved. And now Assad has the ball. So what I'm going to do, they're coming into their buildup shape as you can see. And so this is where I press Q or I could press

07:22

Speaker A

here to put the buildup. And now they're building up. And this is just the step one where we're actually putting the things together. Now step two is when you actually have the tags ready. So I'm going to go to the video where I have

07:37

Speaker A

this ready and that way we can see what this looks like. What this loo

07:46

Speaker A

One second. So this is match versus a sub. Sometimes you might have this file and it's normal for you to have a lot of different files. Okay, now this is the tagged match. In fact, I only tagged the

07:57

Speaker A

first half of it cuz that's what I needed to get cuz I was looking at many matches. So, I didn't have to go through all of them uh to get their intentions.

08:03

Speaker A

Of course, if you have the time, it's better for you to go through the full game because you can also see like what their subs could be. What did they change in the second half? How did they respond to the other team's response?

08:15

Speaker A

And this is where you get into a bit more of the the coaching side or what's happening during the match and a bit more advanced, but very very very helpful if you want to win games, especially those that are like very

08:27

Speaker A

tight against teams that are as good as you. So when you're done, you have this in front of you and this is basically a tagged match. Okay? And as I told you, sometimes I don't tag everything buildup. Sometimes I just tag defending

08:41

Speaker A

and attacking. And that way in case the team isn't really doesn't have a big style of play, maybe it's a younger team, maybe it's a less professional league where tactics aren't as dominant and you focus more on the players, then

08:53

Speaker A

you might need to do something more like this. Anyway, you have the tags. You can see them by time or you can put them by group. So, attacking alone, defending alone, and set pieces alone. Set pieces also something we're going to talk about

09:05

Speaker A

on its own. But so, now that I have all of this, here's what I do next. Okay, I put all of the attacking ones right next to each other. I wish this was automated, but it's not the sorting of

09:15

Speaker A

it. Um, so you put them here and that way when you actually go to the to them sorted by group, you also can do it like much easier because you have them sorted in the way you like. Like if you want to

09:27

Speaker A

start with how they build up, then you have as the first thing and then you go to the second thing and the second thing and the second thing. So you see how they build up and then you see what they

09:34

Speaker A

do in the middle third. Then you see what they do in the final third. Then you see their shots. Then you see if they have specific uh actions that you uh tag. Like sometimes I tag the missed passes and then I notice like oh it's

09:46

Speaker A

the same player who missed these passes. Or if I attack the crosses and then you realize oh most of the crosses are actually coming from the left side more than the right side. And then we also have some kind of quantitative element.

09:56

Speaker A

We're going to get the statistics later. That's also its own section. So now here we have this and now as I start I can look into the shots and let's say actually well this is a set piece so it

10:08

Speaker A

isn't really tactical. I leave it for later. Again set pieces. Okay so that's interesting. They're getting their shots through set pieces then that means maybe that's something they're strong with.

10:16

Speaker A

But anyway now I got to this point and then we have the shots. So, this is actually a pretty dangerous chance, like a genuine goal scoring opportunity, cuz sometimes a shot can be from 30 m away and the player just shot it without

10:28

Speaker A

taking a decision. Um, or it could be shot, but it's also wrong decision because it got deflected by someone. So, again, I I don't consider that as a real goal scoring opportunity. And maybe that's how you actually want to tag

10:39

Speaker A

yours. Like, you don't want to tag shots, you want to tag chances, like act with real chances, and put those together instead of dividing them by shots and crosses. And I do that with a different team. So now that we have

10:50

Speaker A

this, I noticed that this is actually pretty good. So I'm going to save it for later. I'm going to put a smile on this because it was a good moment. Uh especially since I'm attacking the opponent and like sometimes you don't

11:00

Speaker A

know what's good and what's bad. So you can put it as positive and negative. You can also not use smile and frown. You could use these as attacking and defending in case you want to use like two different videos to categorize them.

11:10

Speaker A

And I'm going to show you what I mean. Basically, when I press here, this is kind of an automatic filter uh for Live Tag Pro.

11:17

Speaker A

So, when I press this and I actually want to go and put these in uh in its own montage, which we're going to get to, then it's just easier for me to get all the attacking ones and put them

11:26

Speaker A

together and the defending ones alone. Or now, let's say I want to do all the positives alone, all the negatives alone, which is what I have here, which is the positives. And then here, actually, I just put them all together

11:37

Speaker A

because I didn't want to do two different videos. I wanted to do one. And as you can see, it's just one half.

11:42

Speaker A

So, I didn't want to go into all of the details. It's just an overview of what they do. Anyway, so I chose this video, but before I actually want to take it anywhere, did you notice how the play

11:52

Speaker A

started from the middle? Like what happened before that, I'm very curious to know. And actually, when it ended, I was looking at the player and his reaction and this player apologizing again. I don't really care about this. I

12:03

Speaker A

don't want to show this to the players and the coaches. So instead, what I need to do here is get it back a bit. Would I bring it back here? No, because that'll just make it unnecessarily unnecessarily long. So, I'll put it from here. And

12:18

Speaker A

then this is where we start the video. And then as it walks through, this is where it ended. Okay. I keep it a second after it ended because if you actually have a video that's going to play right

12:27

Speaker A

after, like your brain needs to process what just happened. So, it's better to keep it just maximum of a second so that you can understand the play and how it ended before you jump directly into the next video. Okay. So, now I have this

12:40

Speaker A

video and it's ready. And let's say I want to take another one and I'm going to look at the shots. And this shot, let's say, came from here, which is a progression phase. And then they were playing at the back. You can see their

12:50

Speaker A

shape here was four with two in the middle. And then the number 10 is going sideways to get a diagonal pass or to give support to the left winger.

12:57

Speaker A

Whatever. That's not where we're focusing right now. Okay, good turn. Uh I might tag this as a dribble here. I didn't like a good So this tells me that this player is good maybe between the lines or good at receiving because look

13:08

Speaker A

at how he turned. And then there's this key play which is a shot. Okay, not the craziest scoring opportunity, but for me this is still something worth looking at because if just this player took a better decision, you were still uh four against

13:25

Speaker A

four. Maybe he someone else here like maybe our player could do a fake shot here and then you'd go inside and that's also a goal scoring opportunity. So I'm actually going to save this one. Looks like a positive for them. Now let's just

13:37

Speaker A

look at one more case. How did they get here? Okay. So, they started from Okay. Okay. Okay.

13:48

Speaker A

Okay. Okay. So, this actually started with press and now I'm looking at the attacking phase. So, I'm not focusing on the transition right now. So, I'm just going to leave that for later. But if I look at this one actually, as you can

14:01

Speaker A

see, I saved this as attacking. They started from the back and went forward. Okay? And then they played within the middle. Good passing between the lines.

14:10

Speaker A

As you've seen so far, many times we're not seeing the players going through the flanks. They're actually coming through the middle. So that's pretty interesting. Usually 4-33 teams focus on the wingers. Um anyway, you see the winger actually

14:22

Speaker A

tucked inside. That's interesting. And then here the shot taken. Again, this could have been a very dangerous chance if he just passed it here. Uh maybe actually this left back is pretty lacking in his positioning. But anyway, this shot in itself could be a goal.

14:36

Speaker A

Maybe aimed on a near post. Someone could score it. So, all of these three shots are pretty important. So, I'm going to take this and I'm actually going to export it. And I'm going to montage from selected, go to video

14:48

Speaker A

editor. So, we went through the sorting the clips. We chose the clips. And now we're going to export the clips. So, I'm going to mult from selected, go to video editor, and then confirm.

15:02

Speaker A

Okay. And now it's loaded. By the way, again, when your when your laptop is charging, uh or your computer, what computer is always char when your laptop is charging, uh it's always faster for performance. Sometimes you may notice

15:15

Speaker A

that it's slower. Uh so just make sure it's charging so you can like not get any bugs or lags when you're using this.

15:22

Speaker A

Anyway, so now you have the other part which is if you actually start to notice the patterns, you combine them and you start to put on the the interesting elements on it, which means the actual analysis because you're going to present

15:36

Speaker A

this to someone. It's always good to have a written report and the video report so that if the coach is giving the presentation, you have like the they have the the notes so they can say everything that you have. And actually,

15:46

Speaker A

it's one of the nicest things as an analyst which is uh the coach who usually uh if you're in bigger teams might actually someone be someone with much more experience than you. Uh sometimes it's not, but many times it is the case.

16:02

Speaker A

Uh and they usually have like a strong personality. So the things they're saying are based on things you know and he's telling the players and that shows how much they trust you. But that's just a different thing, not our focus. Now

16:14

Speaker A

this is more of the mental side of analysis. So here we have what's going on. And so let's say now I just want to show that they play with a 433 let's say. And so you could say okay.

16:30

Speaker A

Okay. Here you could say that the striker drops to create support. And then let's say I want to do a drawing.

16:36

Speaker A

Here you have a choice. You can either do a dynamic drawing or you could do a hyper drawing. Uh I accidentally pressed on dynamic. This is the hyper drawing.

16:44

Speaker A

Basically, the difference is the the hyperdrawing gets one frame and you work on it. Uh the dynamic drawing is the one that's moving and you're putting the the stuff during it. Uh each case depends on what you need. Sometimes you actually

16:59

Speaker A

don't need the dynamic drawing. It's one would say it's the best because it's the most advanced, but sometimes you really don't need it and it can actually cause confusion because uh static static frames sometime can help you get your

17:12

Speaker A

point across better. Um so we'll get to that in a second. But dynamic is pretty complicated and that's why if you can do hybrid, I say do hybrid most of the time, especially if you're in tournaments because you don't have

17:25

Speaker A

enough time and you want to get the point across. Anyway, so here what we're doing is mapping.

17:31

Speaker A

What's mapping? You actually want the pitch to look like what you have here. Okay. And you can see that this is pretty off. Like although the the software gave it to me, I can tell it's pretty inaccurate. So what I'm going to

17:44

Speaker A

do is I'm going to actually do do this from scratch. Press remove mapping of this frame. And then here I'm going to start to select uh the pitch points that I have. So I do this and this. And the

17:55

Speaker A

better the quality of the video and the better the angle of the video, the easier this is. Sometimes this is super difficult. Like genuinely, sometimes dynamic drawing doesn't work. So you might have to do a static drawing and

18:07

Speaker A

that could be your only option. But anyway, here it's mostly fine. It doesn't have to be perfect because here they're just getting the reference. Like you can see the player standing here.

18:16

Speaker A

That's what they want to know. Especially for a hybrid and a dynamic, it's very important to be on point. And a hybrid not as much because it's more flexible. So, I'm just going to say done here.

18:27

Speaker A

Okay. So, now that I have this, here's what we can say. We saw the striker here, this guy drop, go down to receive the ball. And basically, let's just say this. The opacity is a bit higher. Diameter is a

18:43

Speaker A

bit more cut off is less. Then the height, I think I make the opacity a bit less. Okay. Diameter a bit more. These are the stuff that you start to get with experience and the easier it becomes for

18:54

Speaker A

you, uh, you start to see like what works and what's not. So, this is for the animation speed, a bunch of different stuff. And I just a quick tip, you also get to this when we focus just only on illustrations, is to just add

19:07

Speaker A

the animation speed for a second because that way it'll be like much smoother. Like this is much smoother than this. See, it's just nicer on the eye.

19:19

Speaker A

Sometimes you can even make it slower. Anyway, so now we have this. We're like, okay. Uh here you can put the text like striker dropped.

19:32

Speaker A

Okay. Now I'm just doing random stuff obviously. And it's always nice to add a second here to make this slower. And then actually I expand this a bit and then say striker dropped. See here you extend this longer and then you're good

19:52

Speaker A

to go. Type. So then after you say the striker dropped here, you can mention how uh maybe you want actually want to put an arrow like striker dropped. Okay, you can put this before, you can put this with a highlight and then this is

20:04

Speaker A

after. And then here you should be fine. And in case it's too slow, I'll show you what to do.

20:12

Speaker A

Okay, now this is perfect. Striker dropped. And then you could say the winger. Okay.

20:24

Speaker A

Okay. And I move this a bit so that it's a bit lower. And then I can say let's just use this one. Actually, it's better to stay consistent. So I just wanted to show you this. But now I'm thinking like

20:35

Speaker A

it's better just to stay consistent with the other one. So what I can do actually is to duplicate this highlight but then use it on this guy. And now I can say this way is just consistent with other

20:49

Speaker A

ones. Actually, this isn't how I usually do my drawings. I usually use rings more than highlights. Um, but let's just say this. And then here, I'll make this slower. And then we say winger tucked inside.

21:07

Speaker A

And so this is what people like in the football language you call this switching. This is a rotation.

21:11

Speaker A

limitation is if three players or more are switching. Uh switching is just when two players switch positions, which is what happened here. The striker dropped and the winger went to his place. Um if there was a third player in the

21:22

Speaker A

combination, which one could say the number 10 here was involved because he might go wide now. And that is more of a rotation. But anyway, so the winger tucked inside. So this is how it's going to look. Striker drop. I miss misspelled

21:34

Speaker A

it. I'll fix it now. And then winger tucked inside. And actually what I'm going to show is uh one thing.

21:44

Speaker A

Okay. What I'm going to show here is actually the space that the striker created.

21:50

Speaker A

So here we can see. Okay. Why is it not working? One second. Here's what I'm going to do.

22:19

Speaker A

Okay. Okay. So, this is good. And then if I put this here, but after this, and this is where you actually just need to play around with it. This is where this is what's called work. So this is there's

22:37

Speaker A

no hacks to this. You just need to do them. Uh the only hack is when you start to save uh templates which really helps.

22:45

Speaker A

Uh it's called states here. So you save a state if you want it to look a certain way. Let's say you want to put the color in the middle as red. And then next time if you save state here that means

22:58

Speaker A

the next time you make a rectangle it's going to start as red like this.

23:04

Speaker A

load state red and that way you could just have it this way. You could also put it as default because that makes things easier. It depends on what you want to do. Anyway, so now we have this and then I want to make this actually

23:16

Speaker A

put this back here. Do this like this and then I think I need to extend this a bit. I'll show you. So striker drop.

23:25

Speaker A

Interesting. Leaving the space here and then the winger tucked inside. And that way this is this is pretty good. Okay.

23:33

Speaker A

Actually, I'm going to make a bit longer just to show you guys what I can do. If I wanted to make a bit longer, I right click here. I add the stop frame 0.5 seconds. And that just makes it stay a

23:43

Speaker A

bit longer if that's what you needed while going inside. Pauses extra. And then you keep going. This is more useful in dynamic drawing. And I'll show you in a bit. Okay. So now we have the cyber drawing that just got inserted here. So

23:56

Speaker A

when the move when the video is playing, I'm walking through it. Okay, we notice now if you're looking at the striker, he drops, gets the player with him. And now, okay, and then this is where our drawing gets in. Now, maybe in this case, the

24:16

Speaker A

better thing to do is actually use a dynamic drawing. Why? And I'll show you why in a second. Okay, and it gets played. And then this is actually a real chance someone maybe maybe here you could actually even tell your players

24:27

Speaker A

what to do which is you have the space let the ball roll or go drive inwards.

24:32

Speaker A

Here's a static drawing example. You could even focus on the micro details which is let the player's first touch be direct towards goal or even to put the the opponent player behind them. Okay, I know this is for later but anyway you

24:45

Speaker A

need to find a way to put it right. I think this was the wrong exact frame. So here's what I do. I come here and then I switch with the arrows. And then here, uh, instead of here's what I can say.

24:56

Speaker A

Like if this was my player, I'd say here, instead of focusing on going like this, you might want him to take a take a sideways run. Here you can do sideways and static. So you might want him to

25:12

Speaker A

take a sideways run like this. so that you actually put the player behind you and then you keep running and that way he can't take the ball from you. Okay. So, I'm not going to save this now, but just so you also

25:25

Speaker A

see static drawings. It's, as you can see, it's much less good-looking, but if you just want to get the point across fast, you can like even if you want to put on spaces, look how bad it is. I do

25:34

Speaker A

have states for this that makes it look a bit better. Um, best. Yeah, that's pretty much it. And know like if you can make it flat by just playing with three 3D stuff like here it's actually 2D but

25:47

Speaker A

you can make it look 3D and often times with static drawings I remove the fill and that way you can just be like oh it's this space and then this one is actually a bit wide. So do this and this

26:00

Speaker A

and then that way your point is kind of clear. And then you can either save it to the project or you can save it to a file. So you can send this to someone if you wanted to. Uh you just name it

26:09

Speaker A

whatever like uh dribble or protect protect your run to goal. Let's just say okay now it's like this so it's fine save project and then you go. So now you have multiple things going on like you have a you have a hybrid drawing which

26:30

Speaker A

you explain something and I said here we can actually do dynamic drawing and so I'm going to show you why we could do this as a dynamic one and usually I'm I could split this but I could just build

26:41

Speaker A

on this. A quick hack you can do which took me a while to figure out is when you want to do dynamic you don't have to get all the clip because that's going to make you have to put the mapping for

26:50

Speaker A

everything. So it's better just to put the to split it and just focus the dynamic on what you want. So here I'm just going to split this frame. And then now I want to do dynamic on this. Why?

27:00

Speaker A

Because the frame is pretty set. It's not going to be complicated to do the mapping and it's just shorter length.

27:04

Speaker A

Like the camera is moving that much. So the mapping is going to be easier. Okay.

27:08

Speaker A

And even if you want to share it like you could you could share the full one or you could just share the the small one. So this is where the you need to actually wait. Sometimes if it's a long

27:18

Speaker A

video you might go and get a stack uh while this is happening. And that's totally fine because this takes some time and sometimes it doesn't work. Like now I think it is going to work because the pitch is pretty clear and uh like

27:32

Speaker A

doesn't move that much. Like there's no zooming so you should be fine. Okay. In the meantime, okay, see perfect.

27:45

Speaker A

Not so perfect. You just saw it's not so perfect. So from the start I can see that this can be like this and that way it's flatter. The circle is here right here. It's bad. You can see this.

27:57

Speaker A

So maybe I want to consider fixing this frame because look how it becomes. Okay.

28:02

Speaker A

And then I can see that it doesn't actually let me fix it. Perfect. So this is how it's supposed to be. Again, this could be a bit better. Um just because.

28:14

Speaker A

Yeah. So this is good enough and this is actually more than enough in most cases.

28:19

Speaker A

And then I'm just going to keep this like this. And that's all I need. Okay.

28:22

Speaker A

Damn it. Now, the thing why I decided to put dynamic is I actually wanted to show the movement of the striker more. So, I'm going to look for him. And I'm just going to put this. Okay. And now it's

28:34

Speaker A

following him. It's going to take a while to track the players cuz look what you can do. You need to actually track all the different players and it takes some time and it takes PC load and that's totally fine. But I don't like

28:44

Speaker A

this. Look how the color is a bit strong. So, remove this fill. Uh, make the size a bit smaller. This is the text size. Oopsie. Um, parameters. So, diameter, make it a bit smaller.

28:57

Speaker A

And then opacity is fine. You could just put another color here for effect. But since it's a white team, I just can keep it white. You could also put it like red. That still looks pretty cool.

29:06

Speaker A

Depends on what you like. You can put the fill color as some golden type or you could keep the gray. The gray is actually nice here. And what I would add is just so people know who it is, I

29:18

Speaker A

could put number I think this is number 27 or 88 something like I'm just going to put 27 now until we just make sure who it is. And yeah, this way let's just say striker.

29:33

Speaker A

Okay. So then we notice that it stopped tracking them, but I wanted to continue tracking them. So let's just right click here and correct position for player zero. And what's this going to do is even when the player goes out of frame

29:45

Speaker A

for a second, it's still going to be following him. So, no, perfect. Then we see striker went up.

29:56

Speaker A

Okay. So, what happens here is this defender follows him and then he stops. And that's exactly what the player wanted. And let's say we want our player to stay stuck with him or like not let him turn or not let him receive.

30:12

Speaker A

Here's what happened. Okay. And then here you could also put the space that we talked about before.

30:19

Speaker A

Whatever it is. But I just want to put some more interesting ideas. Let's say you actually want your team to raise its offsidel line. And this is where you could put it. And here it's actually put on the other side. So I want it on this

30:31

Speaker A

side. And then you want to choose where you want the line to be. So exclude player zero. Forget player zero.

30:41

Speaker A

set position manual mode because I don't want to track everyone right now. So, I'm just going to put this here like this is the offside line and this is dynamic so be careful. This is not going to work. You actually want to put it on

30:51

Speaker A

a player. So, if you notice that this is the last player, then you want to to point to him that he should raise his line. But anyway, that's just actually not a good idea here. So, I'm just going

30:59

Speaker A

to remove it. Uh let's say you want to emphasize that there's space here. So, what you're going to do is here's what you're going to do.

31:13

Speaker A

Okay. And then here I'm going to add a stop frame because I want it to pause.

31:17

Speaker A

So now look what happens. Instead of it keeping going, it pauses, which is like I'm working on a hybrid drawing now. And what I want to do is I'm going to show Look at this big gap right here. Like 18

31:27

Speaker A

mters between these two players. Okay. And I put this here in the middle. So perfect. Now I have this and then too fast again. So let me just make it a bit slower. Uh, actually this can't be because it's a

31:40

Speaker A

ruler. Anyway, it's fine. You can remove the text and just put the normal text.

31:44

Speaker A

I'm going to show you what I mean. Uh, the measure is text color. I can remove the text like this. Then I can add my own text. And then it's like this 18 meter gap. And if you want, you can

32:01

Speaker A

actually also just remove the background completely if you want. Depends which which you focus on. Well, heck, what I like is I can put the slower animation that I told you I'm kind of a fan of.

32:12

Speaker A

So, now you have it looking like this. This is actually kind of smoother. Okay.

32:20

Speaker A

So, now we going to continue the clip. And you saw how we focused on the striker. Maybe I want to focus on other things. Maybe I want to put the speed of someone. There's a lot of these that we

32:31

Speaker A

can dive deeper into when we're in the actual just illustrations part. You could also put the lines here uh and how they're moving.

32:41

Speaker A

You just put the lines, but here it's not even that good. So, it's fine. The nice thing here again is you can actually put the movements while they're happening. So, the striker here drops.

32:51

Speaker A

So, here's what I can do. Uh let me just show you one little thing.

32:56

Speaker A

Okay. So, striker drops. So, I'm going to put this here. I don't know why the it's starting to lag. Maybe because of the heavy load on the computer. That's totally fine. The less storage you use and the less stuff that you have going

33:10

Speaker A

on at the same time, the better. Anyway, so here I have the guy running. Okay, so actually starts his run from here. And so he receives it from here. And then this guy actually played the pass here.

33:24

Speaker A

So there's actually some kind of deeply going on. And I'm noticing it's a bit wider than I actually wanted. So, I'm just going to make it a bit smaller just because it's easier on the eye. And you could actually make like the color of

33:36

Speaker A

the run different than the color of the pass. And that also works. Let's just see how this looks like. Okay.

33:43

Speaker A

Okay. So, again, turns out I was wrong because he received much lower than where we put here.

33:50

Speaker A

So, it's just like this. And usually this what happens with the deep play. The pass is much longer than the sprint because usually the striker's role is just to escape his center back. If this should be fine. Is this charging? Yeah,

34:02

Speaker A

it is. Okay. So, let's see what goes on now. Perfect. Okay. But this is long. So, I just want it to end here and this to end here.

34:11

Speaker A

And then that's perfect. Now, this looks much cooler. 18 m gap up here. I can also just emphasize this guy. And let's say now because I don't want it to actually follow the guy in green. I just green uh I just wanted

34:27

Speaker A

to put it for a second in the stop frame. So, I'm going to put it here to set it as manual mode. And then I'm going to change the color to put it to green. And that way I know

34:36

Speaker A

it's this guy. And let's just remove the fill. Let's just put it here. Okay. It might not be the best option, but sometimes it's just better than you having to put in the tracking for him and whatever. So, here it's like this.

34:49

Speaker A

And then the primary cutter for me, I think it should be white. So, yeah. And it could just be like this or like this.

34:56

Speaker A

And then yeah, this is fine. I'll do this and this and then it's okay. The ring should start a bit before because he followed in here and then now. Perfect. So here we have this.

35:14

Speaker A

Okay, starting to lag a lot. This is why I told you about dynamic drawings. Like the lagging is very real, by the way.

35:21

Speaker A

And then yeah, I just wanted this to stay a bit longer. So I'm going to make this shorter that way.

35:28

Speaker A

Okay. And then we're good here. Okay. That's a dynamic drawing. That's a full-on dynamic drawing.

35:34

Speaker A

So, we have this ready. All of it together. And then this automatically gets fixed. But sometimes if you don't see it, it's just like that. Sorry.

35:44

Speaker A

Dynamic one. It eats on it and then you just fix it. So, when I have this one minute clip of everything, okay? And we noticed that we just worked on the last clip. We could work on the other ones,

35:53

Speaker A

but we don't have time for that now. So, I'm going to keep these here and just because the video is 1 minute 16, that's not pretty long here. Sometimes like, okay, I told you I want to see what

36:03

Speaker A

happens at the end, but this is just a bit too much. Like, I like to focus on the micro seconds cuz when you're in a video session, like the the players are waiting and they're watching. So, that time is useless. Like, this is very

36:14

Speaker A

useless. So, I want to cut this out. And then here, it's just better to cut this all out. I can bring it down to 1 minute and 10 seconds because really that matters like when a coach looks on he's

36:24

Speaker A

like oh this is a 10-minute video or this is a two three minute video like two three minutes I just watch that it's like what is it one real or one Tik Tok video or one YouTube short it's pretty

36:35

Speaker A

short video that's like if you can watch like this you can actually get your point off even better and that's why you use the the visuals because the visuals can get give you the point um by only putting two or three videos cuz someone

36:49

Speaker A

can get it. And sometimes with the visuals, you can even put one video and the player like understands like, "Oh, okay. This is exactly what happens." Anyway, now that we're done with this, we're going to go to the second part.

36:59

Speaker A

So, we learned how to export and then we learned how to add the visuals, static, dynamic, and hybrid. We went a bit over each one of them. And then this is the final product. And now we want to

37:08

Speaker A

download this. So, here's what you can do. You can download each one alone. Like, let's say I just want this part. I could get this and I could download this. Here's how you you generate cut clips and then you go to something and

37:20

Speaker A

blah blah blah. But now I want to like just f Okay, so if you want to do each one alone, you look at this one, you press on it. Okay, and then you generate cut clips and then you get the one that you want.

37:32

Speaker A

So this is the 4127 the the shot which is happens from here to here. So it's the I think it's the 40 to the something around it and then you select it and then you generate the clip and then you go there. You could also

37:46

Speaker A

just create a montage from the clip that you wanted which is the dynamic drawing and then you could go and create montage and render which is what I have right here. Uh that way you just get this one

37:56

Speaker A

alone and then you can name it dynamic drawing striker dropping whatever you want. Okay, let me just get to this in a sec.

38:07

Speaker A

Um, select folder. Okay, I'm just going to put it on the desktop. Select folder.

38:12

Speaker A

Done. Now, while this is going on, I'm actually going to show you what I usually do, which is most of the time you want to export the full video. So, you render and these are the different options you have. Best is MP4 because

38:22

Speaker A

that's the most compatible with everything that you send. And then you could put in the audio, you can remove it. Sometimes you might even want to add music. And I'm going to show you how you do that. That's the sound that something

38:33

Speaker A

finished here. You could actually add a lot of different things. So, I'm going to walk you through them a bit. Um, a duplicate cut when you want to just cut something. The removing gaps between strips is basically what I showed you

38:44

Speaker A

here when this is like this and then you just press this and then it brings them closer. You could just also press backspace. That's also fine. Um, adding color, adding text. So, you could put this is like this.

38:56

Speaker A

Okay. Here's just a quick overview of how this looks like. You come here, you put text. Um, put it from the start.

39:03

Speaker A

text. Sometimes just be careful not to put them too long because someone's going to be playing it and it shouldn't be longer than three or four seconds.

39:10

Speaker A

Let's just say shots versus ali. Okay, I like to put the bold one. Make it bigger in size. And then let's just do something for fun. Let's put a color here. Okay. And put that color. Okay.

39:28

Speaker A

And I want the color to be above the text because if the text is above the color um I mean the opposite. If the color is above the text that means it covers all of it. If the color is above

39:38

Speaker A

the video that means it color it covers all of it. If the color is under the video then it's different. But that means if you do this then the show I just did the color smaller. So now I'm

39:49

Speaker A

just going to do this. And if I make the video smaller the color is right under.

39:53

Speaker A

So doesn't really matter. I'm just showing you like so you understand what's going on. Anyway, so text is above the color. Let's just make it so it's a said vibes. We're going to make this black. Uh, sorry, we're going to

40:04

Speaker A

make this white. And we're going to make the text black. And the text is going to be black. Okay. And now the color is is on the full page. And now we just do this. Okay. And this is done. I don't

40:16

Speaker A

want a shadow. It makes it look bad. Okay. And here you could actually just go and get the logo. So I just want to get a said logo.

40:26

Speaker A

And then what you do here is you get this. I'm actually showing like step by step how I do this. And then this is already a PNG. If it isn't a PNG, you go to the remove PNG background. So you just do

40:39

Speaker A

this. Okay. SVG. Import files. Okay. Downloads. Get the set logo. Put it in. And then here I have image.

40:49

Speaker A

Put it inside. And here you might actually notice the color doesn't work because the background is white. And then this. Okay. actually here works.

40:56

Speaker A

So, it's fine. Then you put this right here. Look how this is just looks much much more professional than whatever I had before. And people actually start to respect your work because of these tiny details. And then you could also add the

41:07

Speaker A

date at the top. You could put the logo of your club. Um there's a lot of these different tiny tiny elements just make everything look much more professional. Like you might think that it's just all about function, but trust me, design will get you a long

41:22

Speaker A

long way and makes everything everything look way more professional than you think. You might actually want to also if you if you care about your own personal brand. Uh wait, I'm just confused with this because of not knowing where the center is. Okay,

41:37

Speaker A

so this is the center. Okay. If you want to put your personal brand, then you might want to add the text inside and then put it at the bottom right or something like like this like here.

41:50

Speaker A

Uh put a background maybe but like uh then uh I don't actually recommend this if you're working with a club. Um because you want to get the coach to focus on what's important and not your brand. So, I actually never did this before. Uh,

42:10

Speaker A

but I think I should I should do it in some instances. Like this is also too big. So, I would do here is I'd remove the background, make it black, and then remove the shadow, make it smaller. And

42:22

Speaker A

then this is just much much more subtle and like it's actually nice in some way.

42:28

Speaker A

Anyway, so now we have all of this. So, I'm going to render this. I'm going to call it I said shots. I don't want audio. Actually, I can keep the audio.

42:38

Speaker A

Depends on what I want. Sometimes the audio is nice. Uh burnout text is something we can get to later. It's a bit more like complicated feature, not that important. So, you render it. You select the folder. I put it in

42:47

Speaker A

downloads. Here you could put some voice over burnout text, which I'll talk about later. And just some some other stuff.

42:55

Speaker A

And yeah, this one is for when we're doing presentations. So, I'm just going to wait for that. And while we're waiting for it, I'll tell you what this is. So in case you're doing like a presentation, which is the last step of

43:07

Speaker A

all of this, uh you might need to do two different things, which means you want to put something on your laptop and the other on a different screen. So this is why having this duplicate one is going to help you with this. So I'm going to

43:19

Speaker A

search for something called duplicate or extend connected display, which is when you put it on a projector or put it on a TV, you're going to have two displays instead of one. And usually the default thing is duplicate these displays. And

43:31

Speaker A

that's not good because that's just going to put everything in front of you. Like if I put that now, I'm going to show you what happens. Okay, now you actually see the screen that I've been seeing. But I don't want you to do that.

43:41

Speaker A

I just want you to see um the specific part which is on my monitor. So now you have this in front of you and I put this on the screen that's playing and then on my own screen. Now I'm actually going to

43:54

Speaker A

look what happens. I'm going to take this, put it on my screen and make it larger. And I'm going to give you this on your screen. That way I can just control everything. Okay? While you're on the big screen, I can do be doing

44:06

Speaker A

things on mine. So you're seeing this. What you're not seeing is wait a second this.

44:16

Speaker A

Okay. Anyway, so this is the rendering. Uh in the meantime, I'm just going to show you a bit some more stuff on like what's going on here. The video is right here.

44:27

Speaker A

uh you could take it, you could rename it, you could copy it, you could do whatever you want with the media. And now basically when we get to actually sending the video. So here's what you can do. Option one is we transfer.

44:40

Speaker A

This is what most people use. It's trusted. The better one for me is transfer now. Why? Because it can give you a bit more uh free uh sending transfer now because I think we transfer as a maximum of 2 GB. Transfer now has

44:54

Speaker A

five or 10. Uh, and usually like your analysis file won't take that long. This is usually helpful for when you actually want to just send the send the match footage because a lot of the times it could be like between five and 10, but

45:07

Speaker A

it's usually like above two. If it's less than two, then you do we transfer.

45:11

Speaker A

If it's not, then you go for the other one. And if you want to do multiple trees, if you have two fives, then you could do two different we transfer transfers. One for the first half and one for the second half. And that way

45:20

Speaker A

you could also get what you want. Now once you're done with this you can have we transfer. You can also have Google Drive. Um very simple you just put on Google Drive and then you could from Google Drive also easily do the same

45:34

Speaker A

thing and put it on YouTube. Maybe you want to show it on YouTube and then put the the link is unlisted. So I'm going to actually show you now how this looks like for me. So this these videos aren't

45:44

Speaker A

actually for sharing with people. It's just for the the portfolio I have, which just looks nicer if I put it on YouTube and embed it something more developer, not related to football. Anyway, uh while this loads, what you're going to

45:59

Speaker A

see now is the content that I have and give it a second. Okay, so these are some of them as matches because also if you want to share match, just put it on YouTube so that players don't have to download it.

46:13

Speaker A

they can just see see it on YouTube. Much more friendly for them. Uh they can stream it. You can also if you want to delete it from your phone or hard drive, you can and you could just watch it on

46:24

Speaker A

YouTube. That's also a good idea. And so you see these are some analysis analyses and I have them as unlisted which means no one except the one who has the link can view it which is also pretty nice. Um, but again, I'll show

46:38

Speaker A

you now like the best thing that I can like do uh when I'm sharing. And in the meantime, let me just show you one of the the videos that we're talking about.

46:48

Speaker A

Like I said, that we were just seeing. This was how the final analysis looked like, the one that I shared with the coach and the players saw before the match. Actually, this is how we scored.

46:57

Speaker A

And I'll show you the goals in a second so you can see how helpful uh this was.

47:02

Speaker A

Give it a second. I think the cuz life tag is using a lot of data right now. So this takes a while. Go. So let's just watch in HD. Okay.

47:15

Speaker A

Uh one sec. Okay. So okay. So life just finished from the audio. We know that. Okay.

47:36

Speaker A

Okay. So now this is going to stay. Okay. So here I just wanted to say that they started with high press. I didn't want to focus on it cuz they don't really press high for most of the match.

47:53

Speaker A

You just need to survive the first 15 minutes and then they go into a mid block. And so these are the problems with their mid block. Okay. And then you can see it here. I put a few examples of

48:03

Speaker A

each one so that you can understand it. And then you can see there's a bad shape. And you see how nice this looks.

48:10

Speaker A

Okay. And let's just go to another weakness. Let's say here again I put a few examples so you can see again look at the gap between these two center backs. And this is how someone scored.

48:20

Speaker A

So, I really like to focus on, okay, how did they actually concede the goal or concede the shot? Because that's the the most clear weakness because like you could say, oh, there's this problem. But if they didn't concede from it or the

48:33

Speaker A

other team didn't really cause much problems, it's much less uh practical. It's less, how do I say, touchable. I don't know how to explain.

48:42

Speaker A

Although a lot of times you might find a weakness that the other team didn't uh like work on, but it's just nicer when like you could see like okay like this is something that's a weakness for them and then this is how the problems

48:53

Speaker A

happen. Okay. Okay. So what happens when there's a weak transition? This is where you actually go start to go start to go step by step like okay they're slow when you break their first line. What does that mean? That means if their midfielders

49:08

Speaker A

are late then where's the space? They're missing midfielders. Okay. So, maybe the gap in front of the defense line is actually the the biggest problem. And we're going to see that in a sec. Okay.

49:19

Speaker A

So here. Okay. So, here you can see this big gap right here going on, right?

49:27

Speaker A

Okay. Why? Because the midfielders are late. So, that one midfielder went straight to the ball. Anyway, uh the live tag video is ready. It downloaded. So, now if I go to downloads, I can see it's right here.

49:40

Speaker A

Um, I'm going to show you here in a sec. Okay, perfect. So, now we also exported the video. And now, if I want to send it, the best thing you can do is just go to WhatsApp. I'm not going to show you

49:49

Speaker A

now because my WhatsApp WhatsApp chats are like using Actually, I could just do something here. One second.

49:58

Speaker A

Okay. So, what I'm doing right now is I opened it on my display and that way uh you don't see my display and you don't see my Snapchats. And then I'm just going to send it to myself.

50:10

Speaker A

Okay, let me just do this for a second. Okay, this isn't working much. Okay. So, what I'm going to do is Okay.

50:28

Speaker A

So, here you can see what's going on. No, I don't want this. Let's just put here. Okay. Um, so let's just open the files again, the libraries, and then drag the file. So I get this and I drag it here. But the

50:42

Speaker A

problem here is what? And we're going to get it as a video. And I don't want it as a video because the video loses quality. So in fact, it's better to just put add and put it as a document. And that preserves

50:53

Speaker A

the quality fully. So when I send it, okay, it sends in the full quality. And then that's the best thing you can do.

51:01

Speaker A

Like honestly, easiest for sharing. you put it on WhatsApp, it's saved for later. That's everything you need. And um I just wanted to show you one last thing which is uh the thing about Assad now that we just saw and I want to show

51:14

Speaker A

you if I have the video right now, if I can find it, which I should um how we actually scored in that uh against Assad in those games. And I remember very clearly like that was the the match we

51:27

Speaker A

needed to win to to win the league. And uh just like once you did that then uh like you can see how much your work is useful basically. And if I have the the post match here I don't know if I do but

51:42

Speaker A

I hope I do. Um yeah I don't think I do. Is it this one versus? No, this was the the older match that we played against them. I'm going to put in a separate video in one way where like we're just

51:54

Speaker A

showing everything we have. But basically we covered like everything. now where we started with nothing and then we started tagging a match. We got the shots and then we sorted them out and then we continued with uh picking

52:08

Speaker A

them, putting them separately and then talking about them, analyzing them, looking for some kind of weakness or strength and then we showed it in the video and then we explained it, put it all together, download it and then

52:20

Speaker A

shared it with someone. So this is an overview of how things look. What I showed you now is pretty much the beginner 20% best. It's also like the bulk, the 80% that you need, which is like the parto thing. Like this is this

52:36

Speaker A

is most of the work. It just needs to be done like a thousand times better cuz I'm just explaining everything now. And yeah, that's pretty much it. Uh next, we're going to go through a lot of other details that will also help. Like so now

52:50

Speaker A

I just showed you a few of the illustrations. I just showed you a few of the things that you can do with the tagging and the coding board. A few of the things that you could do with the

52:57

Speaker A

video editor and like putting things together and adding the screen. I would show you what you can do when you add sound and you add transitions with them.

53:04

Speaker A

Um, here we got the match easily. I will also show you like how can you get the match from YouTube, how you can get it from websites that are much more difficult to download from. What if it's stream.tv live? What would you do? So,

53:15

Speaker A

all of these different things. What's like how can you use this software? How can you use a different software? uh what's the best camera tools, what's the a lot of other things that we can get to, but this was just like the the

53:27

Speaker A

welcoming to analysis. So, um I'll show you the other details in a bit and thanks for watching. And this was your work that we did together, by the way.

53:39

Speaker A

Just so you can see, this is that we did as a team. And I know it's simple. And next time we'll go for something a bit more complicated, maybe the Premier League or something like that. But yeah, good job on going

53:52

Speaker A

through all of this. And we'll uh talk later. Bye.
