Aww, I love Crash Test Dummies, and that one was especially wonderful! Beautifully crafted, and a wonderful character piece for Shen Wei/Hei Pao Shi. (Though, hee, the ZYL side of things made me laugh; ZYL can definitely string more than four words together! *g*)

Your timing is amazing!

You are kindness, itself. Many thanks for sharing it with me. Joy is when you glance to the side and smile with someone.

There's one just shiny, newly up that I hope you'll like, too.

One of my favorite songs.

As for timing, my historical page shows I'm up to 848 videos between husband and I. Mostly mine. I actually once found myself editing in my sleep. Back in the day, I used to teach fandom workshops in these things.

There are tricks. Of course, there are always tricks. One trick is that you have to do calculations to place the point of action on the emphasized note. Another is to end your clip with a completed action. Like landing weight on the forward foot. The most common - and the most painful for the editor - is that you have to rip THEIR clips completely apart. You remove anyone they cut to and keep ripping until you've got a reasonable continuous action. A clip that LOOKS continuous from the series, might be made up of 2-5 different pieces to get it to time.
