transcribe-and-plan-cuts

Automate audio transcription and cut planning by using a dedicated sub-agent with the ElevenLabs Scribe v2 API to process speech-to-text and generate deterministic cut plans. This reduces manual labor in post-production workflows by automatically handling boundary precision and duplicate take recovery.

Planning video cuts from an interview is best handled by automated speech-to-text transcription paired with deterministic tools for boundary precision. This approach generates a structured cut plan that identifies duplicate takes and streamlines rough cut assembly in post-production.

Yes, you need an ElevenLabs API key to access the Scribe v2 API for speech-to-text transcription. The Skill requires this external dependency along with additional scripting tools to process audio files and generate accurate cut planning outputs.

Automated transcription can be used for duplicate take recovery in rough cuts through deterministic tools that analyze speech-to-text boundaries. This ensures precise identification of redundant audio segments and streamlines the post-production editing workflow.

Limitations of speech-to-text for video cut planning include the dependency on ElevenLabs Scribe v2 API accuracy and the need for additional scripting tools. Boundary precision and duplicate take recovery rely on deterministic processing that may require manual verification in complex audio scenarios.
