Since you recommend the switch to FCP: I tried a couple of months ago, but I missed a couple of things from premiere pro. So I've got to ask: How do you handle sound for vlogs? Premiere's essential sound panel is a big time saver (automatic audio ducking, and easy-access to denoise, reverb removal, etc.). I couldn't find anything similar in FCP. Do you lower music volume manually when you're speaking? How do you normalize clip volume? Maybe I'm missing something.
Really like your videos, your tutorials are very good!

Wow watching this makes me feel like there’s so much I don’t know about editing. I mean I knew i want to learn creative editing but didn’t realize all the little details involved haha

This was totally helpful! Thank you Pascal🙏😃

[HarriRomppainen]

Very good, clear tips, thanks!
I would say that the best creators use these transitions sparingly and with good rhythm and taste, plan the shots with the edit in mind and really finetune the final timing, scaling, movement, colors etc. in the editor and it is pretty damn difficult! You showed really smooth transitions!
