    +100 respect points for using the term 'techniques' instead of 'hacks'.

      Thank you! Hacks is not only grossly overused but an ugly-sounding word as well. Sounds like a person trying to clear their throat.

    Audio is the element that holds EVERYTHING together in the edit. Great video

    J Cuts are the BEST! They also really, really help when cutting down long sequences of dialogue! Recently I had to do a corporate video of two people talking, and I basically had to turn a ten minute video into a three minute video. By using lots of J cuts it's so easy to make those cuts super seamless, making it look as if it was just one short conversation all along!

    @Dmogul 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I like how you showed the timeline and how it looks on the timeline, because so many of us are visual learners and seeing how it would look helps because we can go back and look and if we see something way different in our panel, we know we messed up somewhere and also you two are just awesome.

    • @BeckiandChris
      @BeckiandChris  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dmogul thanks! I’m also a visual learner so I need to see something to really make sense of it. Glad it was helpful!

  • @jimnasium1957
    @jimnasium1957 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I know that I'm showing my age but in my day we called that VO/SOT( voice-over/sound on tape). Now that we have nonlinear editing I see why you call it what you do. Great video Becki!
