Start with the moments that tell the story
Bring full-body choreography takes and useful close-ups from the same performance. Pick the takes that make the subject clear, including a strong opening and a complete ending. These choices give Shorty a useful starting point for the edit.
Give Shorty the creative direction
Preserve complete movement phrases and use cuts where the choreography can remain understandable.
Try a 30-second 9:16 edit as a starting point. Include the exact title or closing message you want on screen. Add a reference when you want to show the pace, captions or mood.

Create a 30-second 9:16 video from my full-body choreography takes and useful close-ups from the same performance. Preserve complete movement phrases and use cuts where the choreography can remain understandable. Use my supplied wording for titles. Check that feet, hands and the start of important moves stay visible.
Make the next version more specific
Check that feet, hands and the start of important moves stay visible.
Play the first cut and pick the change that would help the story most. Name the moment, describe the result you want and tell Shorty what to keep. A note such as “hold the final product shot longer” gives the revision a clear direction.
