How AI is affecting video editing and post production

We asked ChatGPT to give us 300 words on how AI was affecting video editing and post production, and here’s what it said:


Automated Editing: AI-powered video editing tools can analyze footage and identify the most compelling moments automatically. This significantly speeds up the editing process by eliminating the need to sift through hours of content manually. Editors can then focus on refining the creative aspects of the video, such as storytelling and pacing.


Enhanced Visual Effects: AI algorithms can generate stunning visual effects and animations more efficiently than ever before. Whether it's adding realistic CGI elements or creating intricate motion graphics, AI-driven tools can save time and resources while maintaining a high level of quality.


Color Correction and Grading: AI can assist in color correction and grading, ensuring consistency and visual coherence throughout the video. It can also analyze the color schemes in popular films and replicate those aesthetics, helping creators achieve a specific cinematic look.


Audio Enhancement: AI is used to clean up and enhance audio tracks, reducing background noise, improving dialogue clarity, and even generating music and sound effects. This results in a more polished and professional audio experience.


Subtitle and Caption Generation: AI-driven tools can automatically generate subtitles and captions in multiple languages, making videos more accessible to a global audience. This is a significant benefit for content creators looking to expand their reach.


Content Analysis and Tagging: AI can analyze video content, identifying objects, scenes, and even emotions on the faces of actors. This information can be used to automate the tagging and categorization of content, making it easier to manage large video libraries.


Rendering Optimization: AI can optimize the rendering process, reducing the time required to export the final video. This is particularly valuable for projects with tight deadlines.


Personalization: AI can assist in creating personalized versions of videos, tailoring content to specific audiences or demographics. This is valuable for marketers and content creators looking to maximize engagement and relevance.


Data-Driven Insights: AI-powered analytics tools can provide valuable insights into audience engagement, helping creators refine their content strategy and improve future videos.


It added that while AI has brought significant benefits to video editing and post-production, it doesn't replace human creativity and expertise. Instead, it augments the capabilities of video professionals, allowing them to focus more on the creative aspects of their work while leaving repetitive and time-consuming tasks to the machines.


As AI technology continues to evolve, it is poised to become an indispensable tool in the hands of filmmakers and content creators, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in video production.


We agree, and we will follow the development of the many AI video editing and post production tools, which are appearing these days all over YouTube, and which we will cover separately in other blogs and commentaries.


ThinkTech, following the technology

OUR LEGACY COLLECTION

BUILDING OUR LEGACY OF LEARNING ThinkTech is now building a Legacy of Learning Collection out of the nearly 20,000 talk shows, webinars and program videos we have produced over the past ten years. We're going to enhance our website and our YouTube search functions and playlist pages. We want to empower everyone who cares about our content, and make sure that they can find anything we've done, from the beginning. We're going to go through all of these videos, review them for content and quality and improve them for better viewing when appropriate. We're going to curate and organize them into special playlists and collections, and make sure they are good and worthy for archival research and community use under creative commons. Given the number and scope of these videos, it'll take a while and some staff and volunteer time to do what we have in mind, but we're determined to do it and confident that it will be well worthwhile. The project will provide open access o...

  REVAMPING OUR SITE Given our new production workflow (see last week’s ThinkTech Story), and our increased focus on publication dates for disseminating, archiving and retrieving our videos, we’ve revamped our website. More specifically, we have added a section on the home page called Latest Productions (most recently published).   These are our most recent shows, ordered by their publication dates (that is, the dates they are uploaded and published on our YouTube.com channel ( YouTube.com/thinktechhawaii ).   We’ve also created a separate page with this section by itself.   See the top level menu to get there.   And we’ve put a short form of this section on the right side of most other pages of the site, so you can easily find. play and replay them at your convenience. And we have added a section on the home page called Most Popular (most recent top five and staff pick).   There are our current Top Five and Staff Pick talk show videos, ordered by the view...

How News Organizations should approach AI Marty Baron, former executive editor of the Washington Post has published a book on his experience there, "Collision of Power: Trump, Bezos, and THE WASHINGTON POST .   Among some very interesting points he made in an interview with CNN are some suggestions on how news organizations should approach A.I.   Baron said:   “Generative AI poses huge risks but also offers some intriguing opportunities. I think we’re all familiar with the risks, especially when AI pulls so-called information out of the ether. The result is what are typically called "hallucinations." More appropriately they should be called "fabrications."   “Then he added, “But there are ways to introduce some efficiencies in newsroom operations with the careful use of generative AI. Reporters and editors are burdened with all sorts of tasks they didn’t have to perform in a previous era: search- and social-friendly headlines, photo selection, metadata, alerts,...
