Practical guide collection
Start where the edit gets stuck.
Choose a guide by the decision you need to make, not by the number of effects an editor offers. These routes connect the practical steps from footage to finished file.
You have aerial footage but no sequence
Start with the drone first-cut guide. It separates setup movements from usable sections, then asks what each shot contributes. A wide view, a closer detail and a clear ending can be a better starting point than a collection of similar reveals.
The shutter and ND guide is about planning the next recording, not rescuing every problem in an existing file. Keep capture advice separate from what an editor can change afterward.
Your trip has too many good moments
The travel-story guide starts with one sentence about the video you want to make. It helps you decide which clips belong together and which deserve a separate edit.
Then use the duration guide to give the important moments room. Dividing sixty seconds into equal pieces is arithmetic, not a requirement that every shot must be the same length.
The phone footage does not fit the frame
Read the framing guide before cropping the entire project. Check faces, hands, movement and the edges of the destination frame. The aspect-ratio calculator shows the geometric cost of a fill crop.
When phone and drone colours look different, read the HDR and SDR notes. A colour-management decision is not the same as adding a look or changing brightness by eye.
The export is too large or not ready to upload
Use the file-size guide to understand duration and average bitrate. Work from known inputs instead of guessing from resolution alone. The calculator keeps decimal and binary units distinct.
The final-check guide covers what to inspect in the actual MP4: opening, ending, crop, text, audio and playback. A successful preview is helpful, but the delivered file deserves its own review.
