r/VideoEditing

Hi guys. I really need some help here, and let me just say I'm a total noob so please be gentle.
I'm currently using a nvme 4TB for my desktop PC at home, mainly to backup and edit youtube travel videos for my channel. The thing is my other nvme for macbook just died recently, and because I'm broke af I cannot afford to buy a new one just for travel so I will have to utilise this PC nvme for my laptop Macbook, and I want to know the best way to do so.
I will use it for MacOS whenever I travel (which could be 1-2 months) and plug it in PC whenever I'm back home. What kind of format should I use for it to make the situation less worrysome?
I thought exfat can be useful as I always do the same for all previous external drives, however I read that having exfat in a PC can be a bad thing because it's bad for editing heavy files, and also no journaling so it could be a pain when it's suddenly powered off.
I don't want to format my drive to NTFS whenever I use it at home and to APFS for travel, dont even wanna think about it.
My Macbook has a 256GB drive so I feel I can try to move the video files to internal drive before editing, I don't work with big projects anyway usually just 2-3 hours of footage into 45mins of a Youtube video so maybe not ideal but I can work with that.
So maybe I should just keep it as NTFS just to store and backup footage while traveling and to transfer them to Macbook whenever I need for editing? I don't really know what to do. Any help is much appreciated!

This type of "scrolling / tilted" video footage of what would normally be a flat screen capture of the monitor while scrolling

I'm using: I have attempted to recreate this using VEGAS 15

I've TRIED: recreating this as a flat scrolling video, but want the tilted aspect as it looks more professional. but was unsuccessful / it looked bad. I will be downloading ARTCRAFT's suite of programs or using a davinci resolve to try and recreate the effect shown

I need help with: replicating the effect shown in the video at the timestamp

When cutting between two lines of dialogue, I try not to treat the cut as just a picture change. If a prominent sound or movement in the outgoing shot ends right on the cut, the transition can feel clipped even when the timing is clean.

One thing to test is letting a little of the incoming room tone or audio lead the picture, or carrying the outgoing sound briefly into the next shot. It can soften the transition without a dissolve. I check that the overlap doesn’t muddy consonants or make the space sound inconsistent.

It’s an option, not a rule. If the abruptness suits the scene’s energy, a hard cut may be the better choice.
