Openshot new skills

Some stuff I learnt about the video editing software

Slice the audio into 3 portions, if you want to lower the volume of one portion

Lowering the volume brings to the next point, because if 2 audios are at 100% each, it may have distortion

You can zoom out of a video or picture by right click, and choose animation

Use the red line to slice, and preview the photos/videos

When exporting, it will keep hanging if the video is too long. The duration should be around a song length

I find that for images, 6 seconds is good

Choose images by sequence, and do not choose so many from the same place. Try not to be boring, choose those that brings you good feelings or is significant, not choose so that it fits into a song.

Actually when reviewing the videos again, I realized the song is more important. The created video should fit into the song. The flow is important. Sometimes your main purpose is to enjoy the good song, complimented by some visuals.

You can click on the red needle, and use the left and right arrows to preview the video.

If something is too zoomed in, right click on the image or video, and on the left, use 0.5 for both x-scale and y-scale.
