Transitions
Transitions between fragments with different backgrounds we do via "Dipping to Black".
Example: Dip to black when finishing a slide with text.
Bad example: Cross Dissolve instead of Dip to Black.
For transitions between fragments with the same background, we use Cross Dissolve.
Transitions between subtitles are done through something like Cross Dissolve.
Transitions should last about 1s. But more than 2s is too much.
Text
Visual objects should not overlap the Sadhguru. If unavoidable, we occupy the lower part, leaving the face completely visible.
For example, when adding a large text subtitle it is better to break it into several, each with ≈ 3 lines and add them at the bottom in the centre. This way it will cover Sadhguru minimally.
Example:
Bad examples:
When Sadhguru reads a poem, we usually don’t dub it, but put some text with explanations.
Any complex translations, especially the practice names, must be agreed upon with the project coordinator.
Visual effects are chosen according to the situation. The most important thing is to look neat. Variety and sophistication of effects are secondary.
Bad example: it doesn’t look neat at all 😅
For titles, subtitles, etc., we try, if possible, to choose beautiful effects instead of just the Text effect.
Example: A beautiful title to replace the original.
Volunteering is a way of learning to make our lives into a process of just giving and being willing.
