This was certainly the most complex thing I've made in premiere pro so far. Even though I've had the most fun making it. The constraints were to make a 20 second video of a man leaving his house; implementing the 180* rule where the scene cuts to a shot of the same target but the opposite side of the target. Basically, It's used as a way to make clean cuts look good in film. I had to edit this video using a selection of audio and video clips that I would have to cut and place correctly for optimal pacing and audio that matches up with video. Now, one would ask: "Well, if you have all the audio and video clips, couldn't you just place them together and match them up correctly?" Well, it's not that simple. In order to cut from shot to shot in a single scene, sometimes multiple clips must be recorded for reasons such as limited equipment, and unwanted cameras in a shot. In fact, sometimes actors have to act through one scene multiple times because 1: Editor's convenience, and 2: Audio. This is where L-Cutting comes in. An example of L-Cutting in this case is cutting and arranging multiple clips for a single scene to match with the scene's audio. This is to prevent hearable cutting in the audio of the scene which is unwanted when it comes to audio editing, unlike video editing. I used L-Cutting for the longest scene in my video that required multiple shots, giving me a clean and movie-like result with the video perfectly matching up with the audio. In professional film, microphones are usually separate from the cameras meaning that movie editors have to correctly match up one (sometimes more) audio clip(s) with multiple video clips for a complete scene with cuts. Like everything I've done so far in PR, I loved working with video and audio clips. I did have one problem making this video though. Trying to get it to a 20 second runtime from 27 seconds. So I used the power of a jump shot at the last clip Of him going back in his house to get it to exactly 20 seconds. Jump shots are when a part of a scene is completely cut out and filled in with what was right to it as a way to save time or put emphasis on time passing by.
