Erasmus first video ever in Shotcut!

Your technical mastery is solid! I like how your transitions actually support the mood, music, and story rather than create a glitzy distraction.

My only thought is at the story level… What exactly do you want the audience to think or feel in response to seeing this? If it’s a whimsical tour of a new world, then you’ve succeeded. If you wanted to convey specific emotion like happiness, fear, delight, anxiety, etc, none of those appeared thematic enough to me to suggest an overall arc or story. This seemed more of a random overview than a detailed event. You don’t need a specific story of course. But with your technical skills, you could tell a great one. Then the audience has something more specific to remember, or think about, or consider doing themselves.

Forum member @scellycraftyt used the Corner Pin filter to track markers on a wall to create an augmented reality simulation. The same thing could be done with the four corners of a red phone screen to simulate a zoom-in. Then the incoming video actually fits inside the phone screen correctly.
