Start with a clear direction
Watch with sound first, then without it. Note any caption that arrives early, disappears mid-phrase or continues over a different statement.
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: Watch with sound first, then without it. Note any caption that arrives early, disappears mid-phrase or continues over a different statement. Correct wording and timing separately when that makes the revision easier to describe.
Check the detail that matters
Correct wording and timing separately when that makes the revision easier to describe.
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.
