What editing Techniques Would be Useful to Learn?

[Kevmaster]

Most of what has been suggested I sort of picked up myself. Although thank you anyway for the time you took to reply. What would be some effects that would be valuable to learn also?

As far as effects go, make ur own. That's always better than copying other peoples effects

Both some effects that are very usefull to learn to use correctly are definitally Glow, Blurrs and movements/shaking with pan/crop, probably grain/Noise also. Those are effects that can always do something good to the video Just play around with those and see how you can use them most usefull.

learn to mask! masking is awsome and videos with masks are always insta win... well not really.... but if you are good enough at masking and use masking in a good way your video looks sexy... well sorta... you still gota have good editing all around but you get mah point

Scene selection... timing... knowing when to <s>hold 'em, when to fold 'em, when to</s> cut and when to fade...
