See the parent article for details about what's happening in the video.

Because of prolonged production time I'm going to release what I have recorded so far as part 1 before I start with part 2.

Footage was shot with my Pentax K-5 from November 21 2021 through November 30 2021.

Editing was done with Kdenlive 19.12 from December 2021 through February 2022.

(That's assuming I finish this month.)

Audio was done using Audacity, text overlays were done with Inkscape.

Mistakes

Overall I made the following mistakes during production:

  • I didn't write a script
  • I didn't film any usable B-roll
  • I didn't make any kind of time for interjections
  • There's no soft transitioning between scenes
  • I didn't lock exposure on a bunch of clips
  • I didn't white balance clips properly
  • I didn't know what type of clips I needed in advance
  • I didn't even know what type of video I was making

Achievements

As a counter to mistakes, here's some things I did do well:

  • I filmed enough stuff to get the video done
  • The video doesn't require a technical background to understand
  • Listening doesn't lose important details

Workflow

By the end of production my workflow looked like this:

  1. Insert clips in to rough order and length
  2. Record voice-over in Audacity
  3. Match the audio up with the clips
  4. Tighten the timings a bit until things feel more natural

Most of the time and hesitancy of editing goes in to me not wanting to do the voice-over.
