Today the little one asked about video editing again. She really wants to make videos. This isn’t the first time as well and I do remember her stop motion mini videos years ago. The new smart phone also has various recording and post production possibilities – albeit limited – that she is playing around with a lot lately using her own drawings.

This time she showed up with a game recording where she played some mobile game together with a school friend. They used Signal and headphones for voice and played together via internet while her phone recorded all of this.

So we talked a lot about a typical video editing process, resolutions, screen ratios, audio tracks and effects and eventually we sat down at the PC and edited a short clip in #kdenlive to demonstrate all of this. In the end she suffered from a slight “buffer overflow” so we had to stop but not before rendering out a tiny video that she is showing around to her friends now.

I wonder what will come of this.
