Edit a three-shot scene

Lesson 6 of 7 · 20 minutes of practice

Build a short sequence and review image, sound and rights.

1. Define a beginning and an ending

We will use a simple scene: preparing a table for writing. Beginning: an empty space. Middle: notebook and pencil ready. Ending: the open notebook. The goal is an understandable sequence, not for every shot to compete for attention.

2. Editing plan

Arrange your three shots on a timeline. Start with simple cuts. Trim what adds no information and check whether the order makes sense without narration. Adjust duration to the action, not to a universal number.

3. Text and sound

Add a short sentence if needed. Check that it can be read on a phone. Use voice, music and effects you own or have a suitable license for. Do not imitate a real person's voice without permission. Keep the source of each file.

4. Export a review copy

Choose the format for the destination, check the preview and keep the editable project. No single setting works for every platform. Before publishing, check the current requirements of the channel you plan to use.

5. Final review

Watch the whole video with and without sound. Check object continuity, spelling, cuts and volume. If a person, brand or product claim appears, verify that you have permission and that the message is not misleading.

Your practice

  4. 4Submit a review copy or a complete storyboard if you do not produce a video.
