Nice edits. I did a similar one for the fathier escape (smash-cutting to the teacup), but did it a bit earlier when Rose looks like she’s hatching a plan, so as to remove the children.
I think a lot of people will be using the teacup to shorten the fathier chase.
I would be curios to see your clip.
For this one, which I commented on another thread, there needs to be the addition of the kid looking up and smirking at the Fathier to THEN go to the teacup. From the sounds of it the music/sound timing is the issue … but someone with some skill could probably do that.
I’ll probably upload some of my stuff in the “Ideas” thread at some point.
Yeah, the issue is that the lounge piano (“The Long Goodbye”) cross-fades with audio from the previous shot, so the first note isn’t usable. I just cut in a second later and it still works pretty well, but I’m trying to find a way to restore that first piano note.
