RE voice recording. Oh yeah, I'm cutting a ton of flubs and stumbles out. For a 22 min video usually there's 5 minutes of mess ups and the mic picking up loud breathing that I'm cutting out cause the mic is so sensitive.
Least enjoyable? The slog of editing. When I'm 3 hours in and still have 8 plays to go it gets rough. Partly because I'm usually trying so hard to get it out as soon as possible because time after the game is a depreciating value for content. So, it means hours of no breaks.
There are some pro workflow tweaks that could help a bit. Top and tail editing, trim editing, custom workspaces, deep use of keyboard shortcuts, macros, templates. If you really dig into the workflow tools of your NLE, I'd be suprised if you can't (with practice) shave off around a third of your editing time.
Oh I know all those. Still takes a good while. For example, some plays require 10-12 stills with drawing added in. So cutting, grabbing screenshots, putting back in and the timing is about 15-20 min per play or about 1-1:30 of a video.
So, for a video like my defensive review, it was 30 plays in, thats about 7 hours of editing.
