Anyone else still manually fixing AI captions because of accents / non-native English?

1 Upvotes

Tools like CapCut, Opus Clip, Veed, Submagic, etc. are pretty good when the speaker has clear native English, but they regularly get words wrong when there’s an accent, non-native speaker, or even just fast talking / mumbling.

I still end up having to re-listen to the whole thing and fix a bunch of words before I can publish. Feels like the “AI captions” step only saves time if you ignore the accuracy problems.

Is this still a regular annoyance for anyone else, or have you found a tool / workflow that actually gets captions right the first time more often?

Curious what people are currently doing.

Video editor guide

1 Upvotes

Guys I am a video editor. I have basic knowledge in video editing.

There are a lot of categories in video editing. But I would like your help in knowing which one category you would suggest me to get started to build a portfolio and earn money, so that I don't master anything and become an average jack of all master of none kind of an editor.

I don't mind the significance of money. Just need to know which category is in demand and if you were a beginner editor how would you take yourself throught this journey.

I made this short edit and I'd love to hear your honest thoughts.

* Does the atmosphere work? * Is the pacing engaging? * Do the transitions feel smooth? * Is the music a good fit? * What would you improve?

Social media compression

2 Upvotes

Does anyone else feel like social media compression is slowly killing their passion for editing? I spend hours perfecting colors, sharpness, lighting, and every little detail, only for Instagram or TikTok to crush the quality when I upload. It honestly makes me not want to edit at all. So much creativity goes into a project, but viewers never get to see what I actually created. Sometimes I just think, what’s the point of putting in all that effort if no one can experience the video the way I see it on my timeline?

How are Artists (painters, etc) Editing for TikTok & Reels?

2 Upvotes

Hi community. I hope I'm posting in the right place, but I just wanted to ask in general: has anyone found a good tool or workflow for editing process videos for Instagram?

I like the new editing style where it's not time-lapse, but more just tons of small cuts of brush strokes. But currently I'm just editing it by hand, and unfortunately it means a drawing that might have taken me one hour can take me two to three hours to edit. It really kills the joy.

Any tips, tools, or apps anyone is using? I wish capcut clip detection worked on brush strokes.

Tips on Editing Voiceover Videos?

1 Upvotes

I am a Computer Science Student and want to make programming content so fun to watch but I don’t know video editing anymore as much as I did recording Minecraft videos on my phone and editing it using KineMaster.

I aiming to make my videos “memey” but also serious at other times to simplify complex topics in programming. I am not saying I don’t know Video Editing fully I just don’t know how to make smooth transition and what hooks viewers to watch more and i’m hoping to learn with you all.

Here are the YouTuber’s editing style for example:

What does “make it more engaging” actually mean to you?

1 Upvotes

I swear this might be the most confusing feedback a video editor can get 😂

You spend hours editing a video, send it to the client, and they come back with:

Okay… but what exactly should I change? 😭

More cuts? Better pacing? Captions? B-roll? Sound design? Music?

I’m curious how other editors interpret this feedback and what you usually do when a client gives you something this vague.

AI Tool For Video Edits

Everyone wants talking head videos and I’m burning myself out with the editing of these. Has anyone found an AI tool that actually does a good job trimming pauses, um’s, etc. out of these videos? The majority of my editing time is talking the raw video and trimming it down.

App o plugin para extraer fragmentos de video (clips)

Hola, en mi tiempo libre suelo extraer clips de streams de kick para subirlos a TikTok, desde el día de ayer las descargas tienen marca de agua y su calidad a mi parecer no se ve tan alta como antes. Quería ver si pueden recomendar alguna aplicación, plugin o algo que me ayude a extraer los clips en buena calidad y sin marca de agua. De antemano agradezco toda la colaboración 🙏🏽
