The Edit #6

edit6

This is where I put it all together. There is just something so satisfying about editing. It’s kind of like putting a puzzle together. When all the pieces are scattered, I feel so uncomfortable and disorganized. But once I’ve got a working, flowing video, it tends to calm that OCD feeling. But sometimes, (and this is one of those cases), I feel like it’s never done. Every time I decide that I’ve finished the project, I go back and watch it, and decide “no, I don’t like how that cut is a millisecond off, it doesn’t fit with the audio”, or something like that. In this case, I spent three hours doing exactly that, which was not very productive at all. I still had to write the 500 word reflection. But at least I got everything edited perfectly. I didn’t notice any jumps in the continuity, or anything.
