Your editing plan
Make the story
easy to follow.
- Choose one purpose. Pull a self-contained conversation moment into a short preview.
- Upload the useful takes. Include establishing views, action and detail rather than repeated versions of the same shot.
- Describe the edit. Give Amira the audience, pacing and ending you want. Use reference videos when you want to communicate a style.
- Review the finished video. Keep quotes in context and confirm guest permission.
