Editing To The Beat

Today, we did a technical workshop in which we learned how to edit to the beat effectively and how to use the slug as an editing guide to cut shots in rhythm with the soundtrack. We manipulated and changed the pace of shots and employed both rhythmic cuts and irregular cuts.

It was incredibly helpful as it alleviated some of the stress of working out how long a shot or a sequence must be and the effect of chopping up a sequence to match with the music. Also, as the video was four times as longs as our music mix, it gave us more coverage and thus allowed to be more creative.

This is the original video in which we edited to our music mix:




This is the edited video I made:
