great practical and meta example of good dialogue cutting! two things that i think would be beneficial for folks to know: make sure your eyelines match up, and you definitely need way more than just ten seconds of room tone! ten seconds of silence after you call action and ten seconds before you call cut is a great practice for ensuring you have a way to cut into and out of the scene, but you'll need to communicate that with your talent 'cause they might prefer to jump right in. but you always need to get at least a minute or two of room tone, depending on the length of your scene.
Yeah I definitely screwed up the eyeline thing. If I had more time, I would have reshot the version of me sitting at the desk. As for room tone, I agree that it's best to capture that room tone with each individual line. It makes it super easy to cut, and I've always appreciated when I receive footage that was shot that way. But in a pinch, having that 10 seconds that you can just copy/paste where needed throughout the scene can be a real life saver. Thanks for watching Kevin!
Ha, ha - nice one. I wouldn't trust that other guy though , he is wearing the hoodie of the enemy. Great idea having someone set up your conversation to illustrate editing a conversation. I think that maybe for some people who haven't seen your editing videos that a quick graphic of Resolve Edit page showing a J and L cut - might help them understand the concept a little more. Also, if people are filming their own version of this. It is a good idea to have the two people in the conversation both look like they are talking to each other. Looking straight into the camera in showbiz term is called "Breaking the fourth wall" like mockumentaries where the cast acknowledge the camera and looks straight into it. It is a tougher thing to do than it sounds, this video is a good use of it, being a satire of sorts on editing. Very entertaining - thanks Jay.
I was struggling with whether or not to use shots of me doing those things in Resolve. In the end it came down to running out of time, honestly. As for the looking at the camera part, As soon as I was done with the rough cut I came to the same conclusion. Again, it came down to timing. You can not imagine the amount of life obstacles I had to work around to get this video done lol. Thanks so much Jim!
How did I not know you were a Marylander too? Awesome! Also, not sure if it's YT or what, but for about 5 seconds starting at 05:34, there's a severe video glitch. Also, this video is freakin' hilarious... and I can almost guarantee you it ain't easy to do! I started filming a "panel of experts" video like that, but it was way too much work for the time I have available, so I scrapped it. Good job putting it all together!
@@JayLippman If you know, you know. OldBay4Life! LOL... now you know you should be adding in some b roll from Annapolis or someone eating crabs, I mean, it's only the right thing to do when you're a Marylander! LOL, just kiddin'!
It's a great book! Although this bit isn't really covered in it. This series started out as covering the rule of six, but has since turned into a collection of general editing tips. Thanks for watching David!
@@JayLippman Sorry, I was binge watching your Walter M. inspired series before this video. Your title for this one reminded me of "How to shoot video that doesn't SUCK" by Steve Stockman. It wasn't on the same level as Walter Murch's book but it made some great points that I think about when putting a video together.
@@JayLippman cool. Thanks for all of your videos. I’m down about 10 minutes from Dulles airport. Also, I run the solarpunk life channel and your videos have really helped me get better. Nice to know we’re “neighbors”
@@JayLippman - not sure if my previous reply went through and not sure how to ask this. By following your tutorials I have learnt a lot from you. I am by no means a professional at video editor as a drone pilot. But having struggled I would like to help others improve others in my situation. I would like to create a short video explaining my simplified workflow in Resolve while referencing your channel for more in depth information. But before proceeding I would like your consent. If you do approve I am also willing to have you preview prior to posting. Please let me know your thoughts.

Dude, you should see the outtakes lol. Thanks man!

That was fun to watch. Thanks for the series. I read "In the Blink of an Eye", I should read it a few more times.
It's a great book! Although this bit isn't really covered in it. This series started out as covering the rule of six, but has since turned into a collection of general editing tips. Thanks for watching David!

Great video! I noticed that your eye lines didn’t line up though.
Yeah I definitely screwed that up. If I had more time I would have definitely reshot the version of me that was staring into the camera.
Great video!

Thanks!
I am! about a 10 minute drive from BWI
@@JayLippman cool. Thanks for all of your videos. I’m down about 10 minutes from Dulles airport. Also, I run the solarpunk life channel and your videos have really helped me get better. Nice to know we’re “neighbors”
