Editing Blog: Making things right.

 Once my partner and I finished recording, we went to edit the commercial. The first thing I looked for was whether it reached the time limit. Some of the clips, such as my kicking, were cut short so that we would still fit the time. The first part of the editing was done on my MacBook at home. I used to put all the clips into one file to make things easier. I noticed in that timeline that some of the other clips also went over the time limit. With that, I decided to take out some unnecessary things and tidy up the commercial. Other than the kicking scenes, I cut down scenes like the changing of the balls. I also cut down the scene where the people in the stands are cheering. After some of the main clips were edited, I transferred the clips to CapCut on my phone. With CapCut, I first started out by adding some special effects to my kicking, especially the makes. I also added subtitles in case people couldn't hear the dialogue. Music was also added in certain parts of the commercial to lighten the mood and bring a sense of feeling to the setting. After adding all of these, I really saw the commercial coming together. However, I wasn't done; I still had a lot more to do. I went and edited the clips in even more detail because CapCut allows for a lot of personalization. I even added some text in the commercial at first, but I decided to remove it. I came to the conclusion for my kicks that I would turn them into a time warp or timestamp style video and just have make after make occur in a really fast manner. Then, finally, I added the black background to the Nike logo at the end. With those finishing touches, my commercial was completed and ready to submit.
