24fps clips on a 25fps timeline
Video models render at 24fps and Versely timelines default to 25. The three ways to conform, the arithmetic behind each, and the one that wrecks lip sync.

Background text a model got wrong is not repairable, but it is not necessary either. A soft-focus pass that reads as optics, and where it stops working.
An intake check, an input-prep chain and a three-way decision for when voice conversion beats re-recording or generating the line from text.
A short dissolve at the join is the standard fix for exposure and identity drift between chained clips. Dissolve lengths, and when a hard cut still wins.
Generated footage reads wrong because imperfection is absent, not detail. A finishing order for grain, vignette and flare, and the amounts that hold up.
A match cut hides the join between two generations by carrying a shape or a motion across it. How to plan the pair in the prompt and which frames to trim.
Mixed edits break on grain, grade, focal length and motion blur. The order to fix them in, and the one thing you cannot repair in post.
Motion blur names an outcome, not an instruction. Shutter and exposure phrasing for crisp versus smeared movement, and when to add the blur in post instead.
Low-light prompts come back grey because nothing in frame motivates the exposure. The one-hard-source-plus-one-practical recipe and the post pass order.
A held beat with no music or foley resets attention harder than another cut does. Where to place silence in a short-form edit and how long it can run.
Ramping buys pacing without extra generations, but only inside the frame budget you actually have. Safe ratios, where interpolation helps, where it smears.
Going straight to 4K amplifies artifacts you could have removed cheaply. The pass order that works, and what each pass can and cannot fix.
Shimmer is usually a frame-rate problem: too many frames starve temporal context. Rates that hold, where the deflicker pass goes, and how to spot compression.
