"Video Editing Tips No matter what video editing program you use, there are some tips and tricks that will improve your video editing. Having the right computer, software and accessories are essential, but in the end, great video editing comes from practice and patience. Shoot more footage than you think you'll need. Include footage that enhances the story or sets the scene. You can use it for smooth transitions in your movie. Use a tripod unless you are going for a handheld effect, which can be dizzying for your audience. Confine accompanying music to instrumentals. Lyrics can distract from the movie itself. Don't use every video effect in your software in the same movie. Sometimes, less is more. Medium range and close-up shots are better than wide shots for keeping a viewer's interest. Take a break after your first round of edits. Fresh eyes may reveal something desensitized eyes didn't see."
