a computer fast enough and with enough storage to not make editing a pain. It's helping me brush up on my editing and content management skills - something I had once, but back in 2004-2008 during the pre-HD days of Final Cut Pro and miniDV formats. What I'm saying is that I'm really happy I dropped nearly $4k on a computer to spend a month editing cute raccoon videos.
Any input on the editing?
For those of you who are sick of raccoons - I'm sorry. It's a phase and I know it's intense but I have a feeling it won't last much longer and I'll latch onto something else. Until spring when the raccoons come back.

They go away when there's snow on the ground. Even with food. They don't like snow.

I think the whole highly edited jump cut music video thing tends to be more if you are going for a kind of epic vibe. For casual cute stuff like this I don't think it matters as much. This is probably fine.

True. Im just trying to make it watchable enough to get people to that point in the video to begin with.

Yeah. TBH idk how to best do pet content. But I think this is a bit long for a short/reel.

This isn't for a reel or short. It's for practice, but also to show my mom when she asks what I've been doing for the past month and what I've accomplished.
I'll also put it on regular YouTube so when people search for the song there will be the regular version but also a raccoon version available.

Ah okay, then it's really whatever u feel is best man lol. I might add some pans and zooms when the scenes start to look the same around 0:17.

I think it's fine
If you get more (especially orphans) and you want to post to instagram and youtube regularly, I think you should talk a bit if you want more views and followers. Like that fox sanctuary lady or the Canadian coon guy. People love that shit. Give info about their names, personality, that type of stuff.
Unless you don't want to talk obviously.

Ok, some actual feedback (I'm clueless and don't know music terms so with me)
I think you should change the clips faster at 17s because the synth beats are now much faster.
Like it was a build up and now you're going full speed
But that depends if you have clips like that where there's more motion (following around, zoom, pan).
Using a different clip every (small?) beat would be epileptic lol so imo you can do it like:
Clip clip clip clip, then, same clip (change or cut at main beat, like you're doing now)
Fast and slow, repeat
The rhythm here doesn't match the content because it's all the same, just with cuts.
