I actually looked into this more and you're so right! Waysssss easier than the paint effect. What i ended up doing was grabbing a freeze frame from where the microphone wasn't in shot and animatte around that using the polygon matte. And it worked a charm

That's my game plan. Usually I'd wait till I've picture locked to start worrying about vfxs, I just thought I'd try my hand at some temp vfx

Ohhhh thankyou! And yeah I got that impression about the paint effect. And in some places you really see the microphone others it just dips. But I wouldn't have thought to do the matte that way using the Animatte effect. Thankyou! I'll try it out and let you know how it goes

Avid peeps i need your help! I'm working on a project atm where the microphone dips into screen and I know there is a way that I can do a temp mask to hide it. I've tried following a tutorial using the paint effect but its not working. #PostSky #Videoediting #Postchat #Avid

Hey #Postsky #PostChat if i need to stabilise some footage would i be better off applying it in Avid or wait until i get to online to apply it?

I've grown to love Avid. There's still heaps of stuff i have to learn but I like how straight forward it is. Just editing no bells or whistles

Little update. Ok so turns out you can sync the sound only if you have time coded audio. Otherwise just do it in avid. Where i was confused in my notes I forgot to write down only do it if you've got time code ๐Ÿ˜…

Hey #Postchat #Postsky workflow question, I'm creating MXFs in resolve then importing them into Avid. Do I have to sync sound at this stage? My lecturer showed me that we do but we resync in Avid anyway using the sound files?

Hey #PostChat #PostSky #editing folksโ€ฆ Time for some real talk: I havenโ€™t worked in TV for 9 months. Donโ€™t worry, Iโ€™m fine and finding my way (more downstream). But I wanted to share my thoughts about this experience in hopes others might find something helpful here. (1/

Excellent insight Christian! I couldn't argee more! As I'm beginning my freelance journey I'm finding myself not as an editor but as a collborator and problem solver

Hey all of my #postsky friends! I am again on the hunt for an AE (will take editor but know the realities in our industry) position in the union world so I can start to collect those sweet sweet healthcare hours again. Please keep me in mind and reach out for a resume!

My favourite example of this is Dearth Vader in starwars. His face is emotionless but the cut implies the emotion. For example when he see Luke screaming in agnoy while getting force lightinged by the emperor, we cut to Vader's reaction and the first show shows he's empathising with Luke/ distort

Happens everytime you gotta pay attention to the audio. I could be doing some colour grading or paperwork nothing but the moment I start messing with audio the whole neighbourhood has to mow their yard.

Just sent off a roughcut cut to a "client" kinda nervous to hear what the notes are gonna be. I've never done anything like this before its an event highlight video. He's liked the assembly so far so here's hoping ๐Ÿ™

I had one of those moment recently. I recently met an actor who was in a previous short film that I cut and she's so difficult to her charcter lol
