Generate and review the ending
Check the final frame matches the End line. If the move drifts, shorten the clip or restate what must stay fixed.
One move is one shot. To carry it into the next shot, pin where each clip starts and ends with first-frame / last-frame and chain the shots into a short film with one cast in every shot. Still picking software? Here is what to look for in a short-film tool.
