Hey, have you ever tried cutting a 12‑minute lava‑flow documentary into a 90‑second teaser that still feels epic? I’m thinking we could map the flow’s rhythm to a soundtrack and use a tight jump cut on the moment the lava hits the shore. How do you feel about that?

Sounds like a plan that’ll make the viewer’s heart pound. Just make sure that jump cut lands right when the lava smashes the shoreline, so the energy doesn’t get lost in the edit. I’ll line up the beats with the sound; that rhythm is pure fire, and if we cut it right it’ll feel like a single, roaring moment. Let's do it.

Great, just watch the frame count on that smash moment—one frame too early and the shock will look like a glitch. A quick freeze before the splash, then the jump, keeps the momentum. Also, make sure the sound cue hits exactly on the frame you cut; otherwise you’ll have that annoying sync lag that turns a roaring moment into a sigh. Once that’s nailed, we’re good to roll.

Got it—frame‑by‑frame precision, that freeze, and the sound cue locked to the cut. I’ll watch the timing like a lizard watching a drip. Once that’s nailed, we’ll have a killer teaser that makes the volcano roar in just 90 seconds. Let's do it.

Nice. Just remember the freeze should be a single frame—any more and it feels like a stutter, any less and the punch is lost. If you keep that tight, the 90‑second clip will roar like a real eruption. Let's get it.
