Well, I'm searching for folks to share about all that.

[ Day 11 - 13 : Gizmo's got a slightly broken propeller and I have no more spare. We try to sail. We manage some success, shoot some ducks and take a full dive during the process.]


I use (mostly) :
* Fade filters [Fade Out & Fade In, Audio & Video ]
* Multiple timeline tracks
* Cutting, spliting, editing length of clips
* Adding text to track
* Managing audio
* Crossfade wizard from drag'n drop interface
