How It's Made — Option 5

Turn raw materials into the finished product with a finger-tap 'magic' transition.

Low-effort, high-payoff: The idea behind this Reel is to show the raw materials you use and then pop them into the finished creation.

How to shoot it:

lay out some of the materials you use (keep your hand out of shot at the very start), film yourself tapping on it, then in the next clip show your finished product starting with your finger on it and pull your finger out of frame — this reads as a magic transition once edited. Bonus points for using the timer so the tap lands in time with the music.

Suggested audio: "Watch this y'all, it's my hidden talent, oh you want me to do it again."
