SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning hours of raw recordings into polished short-form videos requires tedious manual cutting, structuring, and reformatting. This Skill provides a layered AI-assisted workflow that compresses, structures, and augments real footage instead of generating video from prompts. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Editing Pipeline: Organize footage with Claude/Codex, cut deterministically with FFmpeg, compose overlays with Remotion, generate voiceover and music with ElevenLabs/fal.ai, and polish in Descript or CapCut. - Batch Cutting and Scene Detection: Use FFmpeg commands for timestamp extraction, concatenation, silence detection, and scene-change detection to auto-cut dead air. - Social Media Reframing: Convert 16:9 footage to 9:16 or 1:1 for TikTok, Reels, and Instagram using FFmpeg crops or VideoDB smart reframing. - Use Case: Given a 4-hour screen recording, have Claude identify the 8 strongest segments, generate FFmpeg cut commands, assemble a 24-minute vlog, add Remotion title overlays, and export vertical clips for social platforms. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to analyze your raw footage transcript and generate FFmpeg cut commands for the strongest segments of your video.

FAQPage Schema
How do I cut video segments by timestamp with FFmpeg?▼

Use ffmpeg -i raw.mp4 -ss 00:12:30 -to 00:15:45 -c copy segment.mp4 to extract a segment without re-encoding. For batch cuts, loop over a cuts.txt file containing start, end, and label values and run the same command per line.

How to convert 16:9 video to vertical 9:16 for TikTok?▼

Use FFmpeg center cropping: ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "crop=ih*9/16:ih,scale=1080:1920" vertical.mp4. Alternatively, VideoDB offers smart reframing with AI-guided subject tracking via video.reframe with ReframeMode.smart.

When should I use Remotion instead of a traditional video editor?▼

Use Remotion for programmable overlays, text, lower thirds, data visualizations, transitions, and reusable scene templates across videos. Traditional editors like Descript or CapCut remain better for final pacing, captions, color grading, and audio mixing.

Can FFmpeg detect silence and scene changes automatically?▼

Yes. Use silencedetect=noise=-30dB:d=2 to find silent segments for cutting dead air, and select='gt(scene,0.3)' with showinfo to log scene change timestamps. These outputs feed into highlight extraction with Claude.

What are the limitations of AI video editing workflows?▼

This workflow edits existing footage rather than generating video from prompts. AI handles structure, cuts, and asset generation, but final creative decisions like pacing, color grading, and taste still require a human editor in Descript or CapCut.
