  • There's a reason music videos look strange. I could just talk about framerate, cuts and continuity... or I could get an actual music video director. And a leaf blower.

      Well, having [MUSIC] in the CC of a music video just means that there is a period without any lyrics and not mentioning that there is only music playing would make you think that the subtitles might be incomplete.

    ... and now I feel a little foolish for missing something so obvious.
    Well done.

    • @GuRuGeorge03
      @GuRuGeorge03 4 года назад +265

      just a reminder that feeling "suicidally bored" with something is a sign of your brain that you aren't using ur potential (this is always true) and in addition to that have either
      1 already absolutely mastered what you're currently doing,
      2 only think/believe that you've absolutely mastered it
      3 need to move on to something different, probably more complex.
      creative work like video editing is usually category 2, (your comment is ironically proof of that)
      people who study this recommend outside output for the easiest solution, which includes reading, hearing, talking, or seeing someone else edit videos and then over time and usually very quickly u'll learn something new to improve your own work, which will cause motivation/inspiration and gets rid of the boredom.
