Hi Austin,
Firstly, no apologies required from yourself or indeed anybody. I appreciate all input when trying some of the video techniques that can be applied within Shotcut.
Many thanks for the comprehensive explanation. The layman’s explanation really helps my understanding. I will apply what you’ve explained here with another short video uploaded to YT. Speaking of which, I do love viewing some of the “cinematic” effect videos on YT. In the right context, for example, an aerial shot, they seem aesthetically pleasing, for me anyhow.
I enjoy trying to replicate the techniques talked about here. Last night I used the solution used in the video.
Again this brings me to another subject that springs to mind, proxy editing. This is something I read about on the forum and something I need to utilise especially as most of what I’m experimenting with in Shotcut is 4K and the editing is a bit jittery.
Forgive the babbling and again thanks for the help, it’s appreciated!
