Start with a clear direction
Use a clear cut between distinct actions, a softer change for a shift in time, or a movement-based transition when the footage supports it.
Put it into your edit
Upload your clips to Shorty and describe the result you want. Add a reference if it helps show the pace or visual treatment. Play the first cut, then use chat to shape the next version.
An instruction to make your own
Use this direction for my video: Use a clear cut between distinct actions, a softer change for a shift in time, or a movement-based transition when the footage supports it. Effects should not conceal a critical step or make two unrelated scenes appear continuous.
Check the detail that matters
Effects should not conceal a critical step or make two unrelated scenes appear continuous.
Keep the next change focused
Name the moment, say what should change and describe what you want to keep. For a title, supply the replacement words. For pacing, identify the shot that needs more or less time. Play the surrounding sequence after the revision to hear and see how the change fits.
