Comment "CUTS" and I'll send you a PDF of cinematic cuts used in movies. 🎬📩

The way you cut a scene can completely change how your audience feels.

Learn these essential editing cuts:

✅ Hard Cut – Instant scene change with no transition
✅ Match Cut – Connects two shots through similar motion or composition
✅ Jump Cut – Skips time to make the edit faster and more dynamic
✅ Smash Cut – Sudden contrast between two scenes for maximum impact

Mastering these cuts will make your edits feel more cinematic and improve your storytelling.

Comment "SFX" and I'll send you the premium sound effects pack we use for client projects. 🔊🎬

Your edit can look amazing, but if the audio levels are off, clients will notice immediately.

Here's a simple audio mixing rule:

✅ Dialogue: -6dB to -12dB
✅ Background Music: -18dB to -24dB
✅ Sound Effects: Around -15dB to -18dB (adjust based on the scene)

Pro Tip: If you're editing with headphones, keep your system volume around 50% while mixing. It gives you a more realistic idea of how your audio will sound on speakers and phones.

Good audio mixing makes your videos feel professional, polished, and easier to watch.

Read Caption 👇

Do your clips look different colors even though they were shot on the same day?

That usually happens because of inconsistent white balance.
You can fix it in editing:

1️⃣ Use the White Balance eyedropper in Lumetri Color.
2️⃣ Click on a neutral white or grey object.
3️⃣ Match other clips using Comparison View.

This keeps your entire video looking consistent and professional.

Pro tip:
While shooting, set manual white balance instead of Auto.
