Cut from what's there

Editing is working on real footage, which plays to a strong working memory in many people with aphantasia.

Steps to follow:

  1. Gather about ten clips you already have.
  2. Watch them once in a row with no editing.
  3. Assemble a rough cut by reacting to what you see, not by following a plan.
  4. Trim each clip until it does one job.
  5. Add sound last and notice what it changes.
  6. Export a 30-second version and watch it once without stopping.
