Silicon Valley goes through iterations of booms every decade or so - the hardware boom, the dot com boom, the mobile app boom, you name it. There’s even Boom, the supersonic jet startup.
Today it is AI.
And yes with booms comes hyperbole - even putting it aside, AI will make a meaningful difference in many areas of the workplace, including in traditionally creative departments. AI will oftentimes be a force multiplier in terms of productivity and creating efficiencies.
Some industries have already begun major overhauls in their workflows in the places where it seems most logical - financial companies setting up AI models to follow trends, data companies implementing data trawling AI for easy accessibility, and a whole lot more.
You may be wondering, “is AI going to be implemented in video editing workflows”?
So let’s show you exactly how we see it will be implemented, and what Storylines can do today for your video editing workflow.
When it comes to enterprise level workflows in video editing, it’s assumed that you are dealing with an incredible amount of footage. The normal workflow goes like this:
With this task, there’s two steps of footage transfer, which can take time in and of itself just waiting around for the data transfer. Then, someone is taken away from other projects/tasks to parse through the footage and organize it into the format that your company prefers. This is time consuming and uncreative work that slows down the process of getting to the final cut.
Now, imagine this workflow -
Time saved: 30-50% compared to normal flow
Once upload is completed to the AI-enhanced storage, the AI will immediately get to work organizing your footage exactly how you have told it to. You’ve now saved waiting-around time, and freed up someone to begin work on something else to get the project done sooner. If you are doing two to three of these projects a week, those wasted hours add up - AI assisted footage logging can save that wasted time and turn it into creative, productive hours for your team.
Most enterprise video teams have repeatable, templated content in their daily content duties. Think of things like website product demos, internal videos, conferences with numerous panel discussions and instructional content. They all conform to a certain format, tone and style, and are repeatable in a sense. Example: introduce subject, cut to b-roll, explain product, end-tag - you get it.
Since these are templated, repeatable videos, Storylines can efficiently assemble these edits for Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, or Apple FCP prior to an editor looking at them. Let’s look at the normal rough cut flow today:
Lots of time is wasted in the edit bay looking through bad takes to find the best ones so you can create an assembly cut from them. There’s no creative process in this task - it’s there to set the table and create a mis en place before you can begin your creative “cooking”, so to speak.
With AI rough cuts, your rough cut flow looks like this:
Time saved: 30-50% compared to normal flow
With the AI rough cut workflow, the painful, manual part of editing evaporates. It’s like if you walked into a kitchen, and every ingredient for your dish was there ready for you in its own neat little cambro, all waiting to be turned into a masterpiece by your hands.
Imagine shooting at night, plugging in your camera to the computer, and uploading the footage to Storylines - then, waking up to a really great rough cut that seamlessly opens in your NLE That’s what Storylines AI video editor can do. When AI footage logging and rough cutting are combined, your workflow looks like this:
This flow is faster, easier, and more importantly - makes your job more creative-heavy. No more begrudgingly sorting through footage while you slowly sip the ever-growing-cold coffee at your desk. You arrive, fresh cup in hand, with a project you get you make your own down to the last finite cut.
