BLOG 4: CLAW-SOME TRANSITIONS

BLOG 4: CLAW-SOME TRANSITIONS

Hey, girlies, welcome back to my blog! 

    Today I will combine 6 beautiful shots of Meo (OBVIOUSLY, I have to include my baby girl) by adding transitions in between to finally produce the finished 3 transitioning videos. We will mainly discuss the experience I had while filming and, most importantly, editing. With that being said, let's DIVE in to today's blog content!!

Fade

    I had a HARD time filming to capture these moments (you have absolutely NO IDEA what I've been through); after a good 30 minutes, I finally realized that I could've used food to make her more corporate (like DUHHH🙄), instead just running around (like a fool🤡) trying to catch the best shot. Conversely, the editing part was LIGHT WORK (thank God🥲), since I already have some editing experience from school projects as well as personal uses. This was NOTHING to me; it only took me around a minute to find a suitable transition and that's it. Still, you won't understand how relieved I was after that exhausting filming section (and yes, I simply CAN'T move on from that).

Wipe

    Compared to the first video, filming this is way easier. Meo has a habit to sleep after she ate, so I was filming with my eyes closed (I'm being serious, it was that EASY). She was slowly entering her sweet dream, thus she doesn't bother moving (Ugh!! my baby girl is so obedience🥰). It took me about 2 minutes to shoot both shots; however, the extreme close-up took a bit more time as my hand kept shaking every time I zoomed in. Similar to the last video, the editing part took zero effort (CERO!!); I found a perfect transition within seconds thanks to the search engine of the editing platform I used, CapCut. It allows me to preview multiple transitions in a short time, hence I was able to finish so quickly (WE LOVE YOU CAPCUT!!💖).

Dissolve

   I have unforgettable memories from shooting this video. You can clearly tell how these shots were taken at different times; actually one was taken after Meo slept, one was before I fed her. Filming this is a MIXED experience, since she was jumping around like crazy in the first shot (it took me blood and tears just to shoot that 2-second shot). However, in the second shot she unexpectedly cooperated; she was acting all cute (baby, I would die for you~🎵). So I can confidently say that this could be the most MEMORABLE one. Like other videos, editing this one was a breeze; it took me less than 20 seconds to choose and add the transition. After all, I had a pleasant experience editing these videos, although filming wasn't that enjoyable. I will give this core memory a "fantastic meo" out of 10🐈.
