You know what\u2019s just as bad as writing blocks to me? An editing block. I\u2019ve had such good ideas, inspirations, and intros for edits for a few weeks, but I can\u2019t find a single edit audio I actually want to use. When I say I have searched in the deepest pits of the internet for a single audio I like, I mean it. It\u2019s always just the same five audios that are currently popular everyone is posting. Well guess what? I don\u2019t want to use those. If I knew how to make a halfway decent one myself, I would have done so already.<\/span><\/p>\n

For me, an editing block is the same as a writing block because they\u2019re both things I enjoy doing. And to have a block means I\u2019m not having any new ideas that I can make come to life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The problem with not having an audio I can use is that it\u2019s the foundation of any edit. To make an edit, you need to start with an audio, then match beats so you know where to put clips and for how long. So, if I can\u2019t find that foundation, then how am I supposed to create something? Can you build a house without laying the foundation first? No? I didn\u2019t think so.<\/span><\/p>\n

For once in a long time, I actually have good ideas for edits\u2014I have intros I want to use and people I want to edit. Usually, it would be the other way around. I have the audio, but finding who I want to edit to it and with what intro is what I have to do. And this \u201caudio block\u201d has lasted like two weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

The last two edits I\u2019ve made are with audios I had to dig for for what felt like hours. And actually, the one I just made is a part of a trend, so I didn\u2019t even have to search much. That\u2019s not to say I don\u2019t like the edits\u2014I wouldn\u2019t have posted them if I didn\u2019t like them, I would have left them in my drafts to never see the light of day. It\u2019s just that I want to make something I haven\u2019t seen other people make, I don\u2019t just want to follow a trend so that I can stay consistent with my posts.<\/span><\/p>\n

All I ask for is a single good edit audio to help me get over this writer\u2019s block. I miss the days where I could spend hours making two or three because I was overwhelmed with audios I liked. Now, all the ones I like, I\u2019ve already used. And the ones currently being posted to use aren\u2019t fitting my taste. <\/span><\/p>\n
