Video Studio

Edit footage, add motion & render

Video Studio turns raw camera footage into publish-ready videos. It handles the entire post-production pipeline: silence removal, dynamic zoom cuts, color correction, audio mastering, captions from transcription, motion graphics, B-roll insertion, and final export โ€” all from a single automated workflow.

This is the tool for talking-head content, podcasts, YouTube videos, and online courses. You feed it raw footage and describe what you want; it produces a polished cut without requiring manual editing software or frame-by-frame review.

What you can do

  • edit_footage โ€” process raw footage with silence removal, dynamic zoom, color correction, and audio mastering (-16 LUFS); supports two-camera setups with auto sync
  • transcribe_video โ€” word-level transcription with frame-accurate timestamps for caption generation
  • create_animations โ€” motion graphics and captions built from the transcript, with brand styling
  • finalize_video โ€” merge the cut, captions, B-roll, and animations into a final export
  • render_video โ€” render a video from a JSON template directly
  • render_still โ€” extract a single frame from a video or template

Who it's for

Content creators editing talking-head YouTube videos, podcast producers turning recordings into visual content, course creators who need polished lecture videos, and agencies delivering edited content at scale.

How to use it

  1. Use list_capabilities first to check available fonts, transitions, and output formats
  2. Run edit_footage with your raw video URL โ€” it removes silences, applies zoom cuts, and masters the audio
  3. Run transcribe_video to get word-level timestamps for caption-accurate animations
  4. Run create_animations to add captions and motion graphics in your brand style
  5. Run finalize_video to merge everything into the final output

Getting started

Upload your raw footage to a public URL and pass it to edit_footage. All async skills return a job ID โ€” the tool will poll automatically until the result is ready.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best starting point for a talking-head edit?

Start with `list_capabilities`, then use `edit_footage` for silence removal, dynamic zooms, color correction, and audio mastering before you add motion graphics.

Can it turn a transcript into captions or motion graphics?

Yes. `transcribe_video` gives you word-level timing, and `create_animations` uses those cues to build overlays like counters, quotes, lists, and flowcharts.

How do I finish the edit with B-roll and overlays?

Use `finalize_video` after the base edit and animation pass. That is the step that assembles the final export with B-roll clips, overlays, and the chosen output encoding.

Does it support multi-camera footage?

Yes. `edit_footage` supports one or two cameras with automatic audio sync, so it works for simple interviews as well as single-camera content.
