Production Blog #3: Editing

Once my partner and I finished recording, we went to edit the Music Video. The first thing I looked for was whether it reached the time limit. Some of the clips, like the throwing videos or routes, were cut short so that we would still fit the time. The first part of the editing was done on my iPad 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 Music Video. Other than the throwing scenes, I cut down scenes like the warmups. I also cut down the scene where the walking started. 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 throws, especially the cool routes. I also added subtitles for the music. The effects were very cool as well. After adding all of these, I really saw the music video 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 music at first, but I decided to remove it. I came to the conclusion that for the routes, I would have them cut from me throwing it to my partner catching it to look cool. Then, finally, I added the Shedeur Sanders picture in the end. With those finishing touches, my Music Video was completed and ready to submit.
