Re: [CinCV] Ease of editing music videos
Actually, that's what happened in HealingMindN Meditation. The entire editing process acted like it was pulling a heavy weight the more I kept adding, but when I rendered the final result, everything was fine. The difference with the music video is that I wanted to playback on a regular basis to make sure the scenes were transitioning properly to the beat of the music. When the timing gets thrown off, I get thrown off, so when it starts moving in slow motion to the fast beat of Sadeness, I'm like "huh? where am I?" This only happened when I wanted to add a 3rd video track, but it was just too much. In HealingMindN Meditation, I had 4 or 5 tracks going, but I wasn't worried about the beat of the music. > I'm a little surprised at that small segment of reverse video I used > because it went in slow motion.

It's possible that the video while editing slows down while complicating the scene, but if there is no real error, the rendered (final) video won't have that problem. Did you try that?

Re: [CinCV] Ease of editing music videos
...ha! again one item to the wishlist i would like to report to the lumiera developers, hope that is o.k. right, the computer cannot know which scenes you want to the music, but there could be some sophisticatd algorithm to analyze the music and place edit marks along the beat. verrry helpful indeed... georg On Friday 19 December 2008 20:11:09 Randolph wrote: > If I knew of a way to automate effects to the beat of the music, I'd be all > over that.

Re: [CinCV] Ease of editing music videos
I used chroma key throughout because I was facing a bright white background and there were bright white lights in the ceiling, so I thought I'd use them to my advantage. I'm a little surprised at that small segment of reverse video I used because it went in slow motion. The more tracks and effects I add, the more Cinelerra is acting like it's lifting a heavy weight. I got away with 2 video tracks w/o putting a strain on Cinelerra. In the background you see what I mention in the description: Mind Stereo. Mind Stereo is used for brainwave entrainment and also moves to the beat of the music. I talk about Mind Stereo at http://tinyurl.com/mindstereo*. *I recorded from my desktop in Windows using CamStudio, freely available on the web. If I knew of a way to automate effects to the beat of the music, I'd be all over that. But how does the computer know which scenes I want in there to the beat of the music? We would need some sort of sophisticated autonomous A.I. like Skynet for that. Happy Holidays!

Re: [CinCV] Ease of editing music videos
manuel, your suggestion makes sense to me. e.g. setting marks by hitting keys during playback would be really helpful. they could then be auto-adjusted to (a) frames, (b) seconds, (c) clip boundaries, etc. just nice. georg On Friday 19 December 2008 18:05:53 Manuel Quiñones wrote: > 2008/12/18 Randolph : > > Hey, I want share how easy it is to do edits with music videos.

I have seen this in avid. in cinelerra although, if two strips belong to the same video and one is put next to the other, if they match in time, then they are auto joined. it can be a feature for lumiera :) ___ Cinelerra mailing list Cinelerra@skolelinux.no https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
Re: [CinCV] Ease of editing music videos
impressive... i have no problems with editing along the beats, but i would like to know more about the video effects you used... is that chromakey? and reverse video? and did you manually put every flash of light on the timeline? or is there a way of automating video effects according to the sound? thanks georg On Thursday 18 December 2008 23:27:02 Randolph wrote: > Hey, I want share how easy it is to do edits with music videos.
