I'm a father of two young ones, and I faced a similar story as yours. I want to have nice, "cinematic" videos of my kids, instead of just random clips. The hardest part is putting those random clips together to tell a "story", especially if I'm the only one filming.

Like you, I've found that focusing on small topics, like a day out on the balance bike, or a birthday party. There are a few YouTubers that focus on making travel videos, and a lot of the tips that they present translate pretty well, such as making sure to have a lot of different angles.

I've also moved to Davinci Resolve, as it's free. Hoping to one day be doing enough editing to justify getting the studio version!
