1 Bad cuts

Bad cuts are one of the most noticeable and distracting editing mistakes. They can make your video look choppy, disjointed, or confusing. To fix bad cuts, you need to pay attention to the continuity, rhythm, and flow of your video. Make sure you use a variety of shots and angles, and avoid cutting in the middle of an action or a dialogue. Use cutaways, inserts, or reaction shots to create smooth transitions and hide any jump cuts. You can also use tools like J-cuts and L-cuts, where the audio and video of a clip overlap with the next one, to create a seamless connection.

To avoid bad cuts, try to get variety of creative footages you can use as cutaways. This gives you plenty of options to work around and transit in between shots.

2 Poor audio

Poor audio can ruin your video, no matter how good your visuals are. Audio problems can include background noise, low volume, distortion, echo, or sync issues. To fix poor audio, you need to use a good microphone, record in a quiet and acoustically treated environment, and monitor your levels. You can also use software like Audacity or Adobe Audition to edit and enhance your audio tracks. You can reduce noise, adjust volume, apply filters, and sync your audio with your video. You can also add sound effects, music, or narration to create a richer and more engaging audio experience.

3 Mismatched color

Mismatched color can make your video look unprofessional, inconsistent, or unrealistic. Color problems can include different white balance, exposure, saturation, or contrast settings across your clips, or unwanted color casts or tints. To fix mismatched color, you need to use a color correction and grading software like DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro. You can use tools like scopes, vectorscopes, and histograms to analyze and adjust your color levels. You can also use presets, filters, or LUTs (look up tables) to apply a consistent and stylized color scheme to your video.

4 Shaky footage

Shaky footage can make your video look amateurish, unstable, or nauseating. Shaky footage can be caused by hand-held camera movements, wind, or vibrations. To fix shaky footage, you need to use a tripod, a stabilizer, or a gimbal to keep your camera steady. You can also use software like Warp Stabilizer in Adobe Premiere Pro or SmoothCam in Final Cut Pro to smooth out your footage. You can adjust the settings like smoothness, crop, and method to achieve the best results. However, be careful not to overdo it, as too much stabilization can create unnatural or distorted effects.

The best way to avoid Shaky shots is to use a Tripod, gimbal or roning. There are different brands with good options to purchase Yes, these equipments can be quite pricy and most people cannot afford them. To shoot handheld try these options: 1. Try not to rest your arm on your body as breathing can affect your shots and cause them to be shaky. 2. Try controlling your footsteps and movements. 3. If you can afford it get a stabilizer????

5 Boring transitions

Boring transitions can make your video look dull, predictable, or monotonous. Transitions are the changes between clips that help you move from one scene or idea to another. To fix boring transitions, you need to use a variety of transitions that match your video style, tone, and purpose. You can use simple transitions like cuts, fades, or dissolves, or more creative transitions like wipes, slides, or zooms. You can also use in-camera transitions like whip pans, tilts, or flips, or use elements like objects, movements, or sounds to create seamless transitions.
