Check out this video where I show how I like to cut in sound effects into my timeline. It saves me a lot of headaches when I'm making changes and keeps my audio transitions sounding smooth.

Great vid, nice tip. All those extra steps add up over time , it’s better to take the time in the beginning setting up that workflow to save time later

For sure, always good to put in that prep work. Will save you a lot of headaches in the long run. Thanks for watching!

It's the small things that add up to the big overall. I hate when I watch films and you know the sound editor was being lazy LOL! When you have to keep turning the volume up and down through out the entire thing. Thank you for the content.

Which audio effect did you use?

[@HollywoodEditingMentor]

I used a combination of production sound and sound effect files from my library, such as city noises, footsteps, and keys jingling.
