+  "text": "So we've learned a ton about how resolve works in general as well as how the edit and the cut and the media page works. Now I'll show you how I build an edit from scratch in real time. All right, so I've deleted my timelines. All I have is my media here in my media pool. First thing I'm gonna do is sort it by file name, just because I like to do that. And I think what I'm gonna do is start in the cut page. And I think I'm going to start with our source tape. I'll turn off our audio just in case so we don't get messed up by that. And I'm going to look for a good beginning shot. I think this shot works really well. I'm going to hit I for in and 0 for out, somewhat randomly, just to get it into the timeline. And I'll drag it down to the timeline. I'll hit I for in, O for out, and I'll just hit any of these edit buttons, Appendant and Works. And now here's what I have in my timeline. I'm going to go through and adjust the timing later, but I just kind of want the main shots that I want in my edit. So now I'm looking for a second shot. I do like this shot for the second shot and we'll maybe day we'll maybe say I for in I like this because it kind of shows the grandeur of things shows that she's walking. That's good. Oh for out. And again I've mapped P to append at end. So I'll just hit P on the keyboard and I think maybe what I'll do is I'm just going to grab a little bit of each of these clips because I'm probably going to use all of them in this edit. We'll do a little bit of walking, O for out, P. And maybe we'll use this as another shot, I O P, I O P. We've already used that shot. I O P. The good thing is that I can always go back and adjust and adjust these things. I do like that. And I think it works well with this shot. And I'm gonna cut kind of like we did before right before she kind of stops and probably right before the camera starts moving around a lot like over out and P. and I like going around the trees, but I feel like the camera moves kind of weird. Maybe we'll try it. I for in, over out, and I'll just play it with L. Yeah, I think I like it. I might use just the end of this over out P. And now we have these shots, which I think I'm gonna have have her start walking in. So I definitely want to cut while she's still walking. And over out P. And she's looking away. I think I want to see when she's smiling. So kind of the beginning of this I O P I O P I O P and we've already used this shot and I do like this shot to kind of go into the end. So I'm just going to use probably the end of this. So I for in, O for out and P for a pended end. So now I have all of my shots down here in my timeline and I can play this back and see if I like it. So this is definitely too long. Even if I put a title on this, I don't think I want it so long. I think I'm just going to grab the beginning of this. I like those clouds moving. I could also speed this up possibly. I think I'll just grab it like this for now and just make it shorter. That's nice. And I'm not really editing to music. Some people like to edit something to music. I like to just get a good visual feel first and then I'll tweak it with music later. I think that's the plan. And Jay's looking around. Does this work with this shot? Yeah, I think that cuts fine. Great. Good. And what I've done is I've actually set my keyboard shortcuts to Q and W. And what that is is usually it's mapped to control shift left or right bracket. And what that does, I'll show you in the edit page, what that does is it will split a clip and then select either the beginning or the end of it and then delete it and then move everything down and does that all at once. So if I were to hit control shift left bracket, it's going to do all of that at once. And what's that and what that's called is the command is called start to play head or end to play head. And so I've mapped those to Q and W on my keyboard just because it's a little bit easier. I think that's what they are in Premiere, which is what I used a while back. And so that's just a lot faster way to kind of cut things as we go. Looks nice just walking Looking good This shot she's in a different place there, but it works okay because we don't really see where she's walking right now She's walking on a path And it cuts to her face and then it goes to walking on the path, which is fine Goes to here. I don't know if we need this shot Especially going into this shot I Don't think we're gonna need this shot What I'll probably do is just delete it for now and we can add it back in later if we want to So she's walking along there And we could cut to her walking here. I feel like there's a lot of her walking I feel like we need to see something else though for a little bit see I, I like this because it still shows her walking but shows some stuff around. But we don't really see a whole lot going on. So if I grab this and roll it this way, we can see a little bit more. There we go. I like that. I don't really like that camera movement. Maybe I just want the end of this. So I'm gonna see what else is there. Yeah, I like going across that log a little better. So I'm just gonna cut it like this and cut in after. Again, I can use my cue or control shift left bracket to cut the beginning of that clip. And now she just walks this way. And I like her kind of coming up to this lake or this river or whatever it is. That's nice. But again, just kind of like we did earlier, I'm going to try and cut on the action. So I'm just going to move this back until she's still moving. When her right foot is in the air, again, I'm going to hit W, which is going to cut the end of this off. It's essentially doing this. It's doing the same thing. So I could just do that, I guess. And then again, I'm going to wait for her right leg to be up a little bit. Let's say something like that. I like Q. And now that should cut pretty well. That works well. And now this really doesn't make sense because she's not here or she's up here on the ridge and then here she's down by the water. But you know that cut almost still works because she's kind of rotating and I wonder if we can take that through. No, I don't know. It doesn't really work. That's okay. It's okay to try something. I do like when she looks down because it kind of leads us to the water. And so what I might do is cut right, cut in a little bit later in this shot. And I don't know if, do we have a close up of her looking around? I don't think so. I don't think so. Where's this? That's okay. Again, we don't have to use every shot. We're just trying to tell our story of, you know, she's exploring Yosemite. I always like to look at this in context. Look at the past couple shots around you. See if that makes sense. Yeah, I think that still works. It doesn't make a ton of sense, but I think it still works. Again, I'm gonna try and maybe cut in, and I'm just rolling this back to before her hand comes in. Yeah, something like that, maybe. Let's see. Hand touches the water, Looks good. Comes out. Boom. Again, I'm going to hit W, which is just going to cut the end off of that clip. There we go. I like her walking through this. That looks nice. Maybe just move this out a little more because I do want to see her maybe at the end of the shot. That's nice. Something like that. Maybe cut in a little bit later. Maybe cut out of that a little bit earlier. Something like that. And so she's kind of walking towards the trees. It makes sense that she would be walking into the next shot where there's trees. I think that works. Yeah, and I like that too, actually, because it kind of looks like, you know, her leg is up right here. And now she's taken a step with that left leg. Again, this doesn't really make sense because look, she's not, she's not near the water, but you take that action through that cut and it still feels natural and it's okay to do that. I like it. That was kind of an accident, but I like it. Okay. So we don't need to hang on this for so long. Probably just do, do, do, do something like that. Again, hit W or control shift, right right bracket And we'll cut to her looking Maybe we'll look maybe we'll go to this shot first because I want to see like what she's saying So again, I'm gonna grab this shot and because we're in the cut page I can just grab this and drag it over to the left and Kind of put it in between those two shots. So here we go. Boom. And what's she looking at? This waterfall. All right. Do we have any more of this? Do I have any more of this shot? Let's see. I kind of like to see that she's taking a picture with her phone. So maybe like right there We'll cut in like Q same as control shift left bracket There we go, she's looking at the waterfall and how does she feel about it? She feels good about all this. Yeah Boom, okay W and now we have kind of this darker shot Again, it's not a huge deal that it's darker. We could color correct it But it's obviously like later in the day And it's kind of a nice little ending shot so we could Use this shot before it again. I'll just grab this shot and move it So that it switches. So it swaps those shots like that. And now we have it getting darker. And she's appreciating it. So ideally we'd want it about the same darkness. It's pretty good. One thing we haven't talked about is in the cut page if you grab this little middle button right here. This is slip Which means that you can? Take the video and kind of move it move you can take the clip and move it under the In and out sections and so you can kind of move like grab a later or earlier shot from that clip. Yeah, I think that works. That works better. That's nice. Okay. All right. So now we have kind of a basic story, right? It's a nice day. She's walking around. She looks at the waterfall over there. She says, man, this is great. Walking along the path. Look at the big mountains. I feel like this one's maybe still a little long. Let's just maybe chop that a little bit. Now there's a problem with this shot. The whole time she's moving from right to left, now she's moving from left to right. And this is the only shot where she's moving from left to right. So what we're going to do is flip this shot. I'm going to select this, go up to my tools, and right here in the lower right hand corner, there's a button called flip horizontal. I'll just do that and close my tools. Super easy. And now she's moving from right to left, which is what we want. And we're far enough away. We aren't going to read any of her stuff on her backpack or anything like that. Nobody's going to care that she's going right to left. All right. I feel like it works pretty well. Again, for your edit, you can make it a little different. Some of these shots we are going to use in later lessons. So I'll make sure to save this out as a project file But I think it's nice I Think it totally works so as far as visuals That works pretty well that works pretty well All right. So I have it pretty much visually laid out. This is kind of the extent of what I'm probably going to do in the cut page. So I'm going to switch over to the edit page. And now if I hit shift Z, I can see my whole project and it's pretty much laid out the way I want. But now I want to add some audio. I'm going to grab our media. I'm going to grab Yo-semi-de-Vio and drag that into our media pool. I'm also going to grab this track called progressive moments. You guys won't have this in your downloads, but you can get it for free from YouTube. If you go to youtube.com, go to YouTube Studio under audio library. You can search for progressive moments and you can download it right there. Once that's downloaded, you can drag that into the media as well. This YoSemmity VO, I'm just gonna drag into our timeline. This is a very silly VO that I recorded just for this project. Now, if your waveforms don't show up, make sure that you have them on here in the timeline view options. There we go. And now we can take a listen to the VO and see how it matches with our visuals. All right, it's a little bit quiet, so also logs, which used to be trees. You can walk on a bridge that also used to be trees. You can look at other trees and mountains. There is even a place where you can walk down from all the trees to the water, dip your hand in that water and feel the cool embrace of the mountain stream. On your hike, you may see many wonderful things, but the real beauty is the sheer sense of awe. So kind of silly. And although this story works visually, we need to change it to kind of fit the VO a little better. So I think what I'll do first of all is move this VO down so that you can hear Yosemite National Park under this. Yosemite National Park. Known for its waterfalls, but also its great forests and hiking trails. Now we don't have to keep the timing of this VO. We could cut this up a little bit. So we'll grab it like this part where it says, not only notice trees, but also logs. So I like this part where... Because it kind of, you can kind of see the trees and then it goes into logs trees But also logs Which used to be trees? Yeah, we'll just this shot. Yeah, something like that maybe. You can look at other trees. So used to be trees. You can look at other trees and mountains. Maybe we'll just cut this part out. We'll cut. You can look at other trees and we'll cut right here. Yeah. And so we'll put this here something like this yeah so we'll take maybe just the end of this something like that You know what? We might not even need this shot. We could have her just go... No, it doesn't work. There. D- I broke that. Dang it. So embrace of the mountain stream. On your hike you may see many wonderful things. Alright, so of the mountain stream. Let's take that and we're just gonna cut that. Again I can hit control backslash. Gonna cut that up. Feel the cool embrace of the mountain stream. Actually, we could if we want to... Let's do this. I'm going to grab everything to the right of this playhead by hitting Alt Y. What that's going to do is select everything to the right of the playhead and I'm gonna move that down and I'll just Roll this down to grab those other two lines that we cut out you can look at other trees I'll take these shots and put them here. I think So that we can Just get as many shots as we can in there. We used to be trees. And... Maybe I'll cut this up, move it over. Maybe trees. You can look at other trees. Maybe we could just go into music right there. And then we'll use the mountains right here. And mountains. Yeah, let's say and mountains. And I'll turn off snapping because it's kind of peanut jerk. And yes there is even a place where you can walk down from all the trees to the water dip your hand yeah and we'll let this just breathe a little bit freeze to the water dip your hand in that water and feel the cool embrace of the mountain stream great Great. Okay, so then what's next? Alright, so let says the sheer sense of awe, is the sheer sense of awe. We want to cut to something that is worthy of that sense of awe. But the real beauty is the sheer sense of awe. Yeah, right where it says awe. Something like that. Is the sheer sense of awe. And then again, we'll split that awe. And we can keep that or not. Aww. Okay. So we have our VO somewhat laid out here. Yeah. And we have a lot this over here. That would probably be just fine. And we'll cut before that also used to be trees. You can look at other trees. There we go. So again, I'll hit Alt Y and grab everything and kind of slide it down. And I'll grab these and hit Alt Down to put those in that first video track. And now we have pretty much our stuff. I'm going to grab our music, grab that and drag that down to our second audio track. And we'll zoom in using detail view here and I'll just trim this so that it starts right away and Let's see how this goes. We'll have to adjust this music, but actually I think what I I think what we're gonna find is that it gets really intense right here and we need it to get intense earlier, so I'm just gonna grab this and move it down so that this intense part happens right where things get a little bit more intense. So maybe right here where she's kind of stepping onto the waterfall. Let's do that. Again, I'll just trim the end of that out. And we'll see how it sounds. Yosemite National Park. Maybe we can just fade that in. It might be weird. Let's start with that, that piano sound. So what we can do is just cut this right here right before the piano. Something like this. Just give it a little tiny fade. Yosem Ctrl A to select everything, and I'll just move everything to the left so that it's right forests and hiking trails. If you go on an adventure at Yosemite National Park, you will not only notice trees, but also logs, which used to be trees. You can walk on a bridge that also used to be trees. You can look at other trees and mountains. Yeah, I'm feeling this. There's even a place where you can walk down from all the trees to the water. Dip your hand in that water and feel the cool embrace of the mountain stream. On your hike you may see many wonderful things, but the real you is the sheer sense of awe. I think that works pretty well. So I'm wondering if we want to grab the end of this. Because usually the end of a song is probably the most awesome part. Yeah, something like that. So what I might be able to do is just, again, move this down to where that ends right where it's supposed to you and it might just work out. Yeah, that works. Sure. Again, I'll split that and delete it. And now we have's great forests. You Semity National Park, known for only notice trees but also logs Which used to be trees You can walk on a bridge that also used to be trees You can look at other trees and mountains. There is even a place where you can walk down from all the trees to the water, dip your hand in that water and feel the cool embrace of the mountains tree. On your hike you may see many wonderful things But the real beauty is the sheer sense of awe. Yeah, that works nice Perfect. All right, so that's our basic edit. We're going to do a couple of adjustments here. One thing I'm going to do is select one of these shots, kind of like we did earlier. I'm going to open up the inspector and I'm going to zoom this in to 1.06. That's just going to get rid of that aspect ratio problem we have. I'm going to hit control C on the keyboard and select everything except for our time lapses, right click and go to Paste Attributes and just select Zoom and hit Apply. That's going to zoom everything in so that we don't have that cropping problem. And I'll turn off our audio just so we can scrub without it being miserable. And that looks pretty good. Now I want to look through and see if there's any major problems with again like stuff like when we when we flopped the shots. I want to make sure she's always going kind of the same direction. I guess she's going a different direction in this one, but it's it's kind of behind her. So I don't know if I mind a whole lot. It might be better flipped, though. Might be better in the edit page. I can just hit this flip button in the inspector. See if that matters. That works. Yeah, I think that works a little better. I don't know if anybody's gonna care. It's amazing what you can get actually away with in an edit flipping things like that. All right, so everything looks pretty good I think. Okay. There's no real problems with how the camera moves or the way the shots look other than you know color correction that kind of thing Looks pretty good. There is this kind of shake on this shot, which again, I'm gonna select and go to stabilization and hit stabilize That should fix that Does move a little bit maybe I'll do camera lock and it's stabilized I Think I like that Is the sheer sense of all I like that. I like the dynamics in this last one too. Aw. You won't really be able to tell. But it does look, I feel like it adds to it. Aw. I could even try to um stabilize this shot. I don't know if it's gonna Be great or not Yeah, I like that stabilized a little bit Nice Great, okay So that's our basic edit done in a combination of the cut page and the edit page We got our music Wonderful things. Things like the color page, the fusion page, Fairlight, and we'll start to make our project really shine.",
