Why I Edited Out A $10,000 Shot
In this video I share the story of why I edited out a $10,000 shot, how video editing is largely about cutting out the bad bits, what it means to kill your darlings in editing, and the dangers of the sunk cost fallacy.

    As an ex drummer, this is a technique I am particularly fond of. In DaVinci Resolve timeline, tap to the music on the M key. You can then lay down markers and accents to as a guide for cutting and pacing. ruclips.net/video/yAKCEjBRn9U/видео.html

    • @mengespost
      @mengespost 13 дней назад

      That is a GREAT question and deserves a video of its own! One tip would be to bring in the intro of a new track mid-scene. Try and start the new track on a shot that benefits from the emotional lift of a music change.

      @@mengespost Oh yeah. I meant to ask you… how do you feel about a ronchie edit? You know? Like, you could dress it, sound design it, layer it, give it a premium music track with height, width and depth, package it; but the edit calls for a less than serious nature. It calls to average Joe, who’s 51 who doesn’t want to see that 8k color spectrum… he wants M.A.S.H. White wash? When you edit, it’s always for an intended audience right?

    There's also feel. It's hard to explain but people who do edit knows the exact frame to cut. You play the clip and hit space as fast as you can the moment you feel it should cut. You'll know it if it's a frame off or it should be a frame more but you'll know that feeling when it's the exact timing to cut.
