Cutting for Continuity
-
Organization: I learned the importance of a clean project panel, using bins and labels to keep my footage and assets organized before hitting the timeline.
-
The Edit: I practiced essential tools like the Razor tool, Ripple Edit, and J-cuts/L-cuts to ensure smooth transitions and natural pacing between scenes.
-
Atmosphere: I enhanced the visual storytelling by applying basic color correction and layering ambient sound and background music to set the right mood.
