问题

How to edit video using AI agents while retaining control over the edit files and ensuring transparency.

结果

The agent produced a fully editable JSON cut plan, LUTs, and React components, enabling transparent inspection and local rendering of a 3‑minute video in four days.

工作流

• Understand footage by transcribing all takes with timestamps
• Plan cuts by selecting best takes and documenting reasons
• Apply cuts using ffmpeg guided by the JSON plan
• Check the cut by re‑transcribing and verifying filler words are removed
• Grade the footage by generating candidate looks and choosing one
• Add graphics by rebuilding static frames as React components
• Design review by exporting to Figma, importing designer changes, and updating the video
• Render the final 3:00 3840×2160 video with 4,334 frames and 653 MB size

The edit is text, which let Claude read, compare and regenerate it.

It took four days (June 6 to 9), with about ten re‑renders in one night.
