The highlighted word in the captions keeps the eye moving on a talking head, nice touch. Do you build a pattern break into the first 3 seconds, or let the hook carry it?
This is a short cinematic edit of traditional farming in Bali. The raw footage had no usable sound, so the goal was to make it feel natural and immersive, like you’re standing in the field.
What I did:
Sound design: Layered in natural sounds (water, tools, wind, movement) so every shot feels real
Music bed: Added a track for mood and pacing, so the edit flows and the emotion lands
Color correction: Balanced exposure and white balance across all the footage
Color grade: Gave it a warm, earthy look that fits the setting
