Well, this is a Learning Log so as I’ve learned something new I thought I should add it in here.
Video editing. I tried it once a few years ago and tried to cut out the beginning and end camera on/off bits from one of my AVoYPs using the basic video editor on my iPhone. However I did something wrong and lost my video, ending up with only the beginning and end bits! 
Fast forward to last week. I decided I needed to up my game to compete with some of the videos others members post. I wanted to have a go at tidying up my latest AVoYP and at the very least cut out the aforementioned camera on/off bits.
I downloaded a free version of DaVinci Resolve which is suitable for use on my iPad and which I’d seen mentioned by someone in the JG Community.
As always with new tech there was a bit of a learning curve but it was fairly intuitive and I found instructional videos on the web.
Beginning and end cut. Done, great, what else can I do? Add titles. Done, albeit very simple ones. Then I discovered I could zoom in and out sections of the video and as the song had an instrumental bit I added that effect there. Then transitional fades between sections.
Job done, that’s enough. In my mind I remember back in the day when MS PowerPoint appeared on the scene at work. People would create presentations for training lectures etc and use every effect possible. Text of every font and colour flying in from every direction, graphics fading in and out all over the place. All very distracting until people realised that less was more.
Clearly I’ve only scratched the surface of what this very clever video editor can do, but it’s enough for now.
The result of my effort is here.
