editing techniques

 Matching footage to Markers

Here we used markers to line up both the audio and the video to create a seamless edit.
To do this I used the marker tool to capture the beat of the music.

 Automate to sequence

I used this to automatically put clips on the markers I had just created. this then created a sequence inline with the music.

lumetri colour wheel

I used this to edit the colour of parts of the footage i selected a certain colour in the footage and used this colour wheel to change it to a different colour, or I used it to make the selected colour more vibrant.

Dissolve

This is where I used the default transition called the dissolve. the reason I used this was because it helped me to merge two different parts of footage. The dissolve transition helped to vary the edits between footage.

Fade up

I used the fade up at the beginning of this edit. this created the beginning of the music video as I wanted it to begin with a black screen.

Markers

This tool is used to edit footage to the audio for example editing to the beat of a music track. This is what I used this for.

Multi-cam editor

I used this to watch all cameras at the same time and sort of edit it live in a way its like if you have multiple security cameras and you watch the footage and watch different angles and switch through them. To use the Multi-cam editor you click through the camera angles when you want to make a cut to the next camera and that will create the cut in your timeline.

Multi cam sequence

This tool is used to put all clips in a sequence so the editor can click on each camera and quickly create an edit using multiple camera angles. I used it to create the base of my edit but then went on to add other clips to go along with it.

Rendering

Rendering is used at the end and during an edit. The reason for this is so the editor is able to watch back their edit without having any issues such as jumping and or skipping footage. I used this every-time, I made a small change to my edit.

Clip speed/duration tool

This tool is used to slow down, speed up footage but it is also used to put footage in reverse. I used this tool to slow down a small clip in my edit. This can also be called slow-mo.
