I started with my visual continuity one a few weeks ago, right after I did the Petchakuchas. I knew where I wanted to start from (Tang San's Blue Silver Grass spirit) and I knew where I wanted to get to (his Clear Sky Hammer spirit), and I mostly worked linearly from one end of the time line to the other. ...And then I scrapped and redid the middle motion matching bit like five times. Definitely found the motion matching really difficult! I think I ended up with a version I was happy with, though.
Comparatively speaking, the transitions one came together a lot quicker. I tried out several free Final Cut transition packs from Ryan Nangle (it seems like he has a free version with a couple of examples from each of his paid ones). The kind of glitchy and quick pan/blur transitions seemed like they would suit a darker, faster vid, so I decided to focus on, uh, the spider stuff. I had to edit the song a lot on this one, too -- I cut it down in several places, trying to condense the intro/build-up and then main sections of the song to fit within the vid. The vid also started off Tang San focused, and then like halfway through I realised it was also a Xiao Wu vid? It was fun, though, and I like what I ended up with!
