Editing video with the video scratcher


Here's a test of the video scratcher used to edit video.
The procedure....

Put guide lines at the edits.
Define the 'shots' by dragging at a 'normal' speed as closely as possible
Speed up past the things I want edited out
Slow down where appropriate

This is very similar to an audio project I worked on. I like media where the timeline is done gesturally, almost as if it's hand-cranked. It gives everything a kind of weird fluidity. I also really like the bubbly audio.
