So, uh. There's a slight possibility I got to one minute and found that it was way too short, and that this has lead to...more vidding. Despite the whole newbie thing. I blame bonibaru and you should too!
I am loving the graphic/motion matching! My main challenge was to break out of a matching loop, because in my source I have a lot of footage of longing looks and once I started stringing them together I could easily have done and entire exercise of just that. So figuring out how to either pick up on something else in the shot or straight up interrupt it and start another sequence of matching was something I worked on quite a bit. And I think I've figured out ways of dealing with it in this vid that I'm happy with, but I can see how it could become a recurring challenge using this type of tool.
Another challenge is that I'm trying to do multiple types of matching at once - not just the motion, but also the lyrics and the beat and the story arc of the vid overall. So that both helps in that it limits what clips I can use, and also - well. Hinders, because it limits what clips I can use!
