For simple edits, I start by going through all the clips and selecting the ones I want to use. I don\u2019t think in order at first I just collect what feels right and build a mental image of the possible edit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, I listen to music and see what naturally connects in my head. The rhythm, mood, and energy of the track usually guide how I structure the visuals. When I find a match between the footage and the music, I start bringing it to life in the timeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For larger projects, the process is more structured and includes more preparation, planning, and direction before I even start editing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
