Terrific tutorial, Sidd.

I especially like the line "If you do it right, your audience won't even think about it." That's also true about transitions, effects and even color grading.

Steve I agree. Audio is always tricky for me. I tend to have better success using condenser mics as opposed to shotgun mics. But I thought the video did a really good job of explaining and making it simple to understand.

That's also true about transitions, effects and even color grading.

That comment brought a smile to my face I used to be in the camp of "more must be better" But after being on this form and getting advice I have come around to the "less is more" school of thought.

So I would also include with audio, transitions, effects and color grading; Length of video with a short tight composition is much more interesting than a drawn out production.
