Cut the dead bits, sync the captions and drop the beat on the big moment before the trend dies.

Reel Editor Rush

Six raw clips laid out on a simple timeline, from a pancake flip to a sunrise hike. For each one, cut the dead bits (shaky shots, "um…", repeats, long pauses), place each caption on the moment it describes, then drop the beat on the big moment, all before the trend meter runs out. Tap to pick, tap to place, or use the number keys.

How to play

Cut. Tap every dead bit on the timeline to mark it, then Done cutting.
Caption. Pick a caption, then tap the clip it describes. Many people watch with the sound off.
Beat. Tap the big moment (the flip, the reveal) to drop the beat on it.
Score. 100 per clean cut, 50 per synced caption, 100 per beat plus 2 per second left on the trend meter. A mistake or a dead trend costs one of 3 lives.

Quick tips

Cut anything that stalls. Shaky shots of the floor, "um, is it recording?", the same shot twice and long pauses all give viewers a reason to swipe.
Keep the steps. Only cut dead bits. Removing a real step leaves a hole in the story.
Caption the moment. A caption helps when it's on screen while that moment plays, for everyone watching on mute.
Beat on the payoff. Drop the beat on the flip, the reveal or the transition, so sound and picture hit together.
Good enough, on time. The meter rewards speed: a clean edit posted while the trend is alive beats a perfect one next week.
