After rendering, I imported the video synthesized by png image from pr into capcut, which is very convenient because there are many resources and over-long effects to choose from in capcut.
Here’s my cutting in capcut:

For the title and the end, I used cursive type in Chinese. Add a butterfly in the title, because there’s a butterfly at the beginning of the animation. At the end, I used some flower petals for embellishing, because in the scene of fairyland, especially at night, there will be an animation of petals falling. I wanted the title and ending to match the animation, so I designed it that way.


At the end of the animation, I added a shot through editing, that is, the same characters, in two different backgrounds, put the sky lantern together to pray for peace. This is achieved through the effect of masking in the editing, in order to tell the audience that this is the same thing, even in different time and space, people’s hopes are the same, and they all hope for world peace.

Editing needs to pay attention to the following points:
Sense of rhythm: Adjust the length of the shot to match the rhythm of the film and avoid the picture staying too long or too short. Make sure the information is simple and easy to understand, so that the audience does not get lost in too many details.
Camera switching: Use appropriate camera switching (such as push, pull, shake, follow) to enhance picture dynamics. This is also the reason why I have modified the shot many times. Before, the shot was very complicated and there were frequent switches between different scenes, but later I found that the effect was not ideal. Using a long shot interspersed with a few short shots can better help the audience understand the animation, rather than using a long shot all the time.
Transition effect: Avoid over-reliance on fancy transition effects, simple and smooth transitions are usually more natural. Therefore, in the whole animation, I used a relatively basic transition mode to switch, so that the audience would pay more attention to the animation itself.
At the same time, the soundtrack was chosen to ensure that the sound effects were precisely synchronized with the action to enhance the sense of realism.
Background music: Choose background music that matches the mood and rhythm to avoid distracting.
The music I chose is from the costume drama Nirvana in Fire. The following is the mv of his TV drama
The reason why I choose this music is that its musical rhythm and the artistic conception I want to express are very much in line with my animation. There is a kind of bleak, sad feeling.
