It made me and the filmmaker burst out laughing every time we filmed, so it took multiple tries, but the test paper part was easy. My acting was poor, and you can still see me holding a laugh a little bit. Of course, editing was easy since all I did was add a transition from my editing app and cut the video to my satisfaction. 2. Dissolve     For the two-shot and over-the-shoulder shot, I utilized the dissolve transi
