About This Class

Video Editing Using AI and Text

Traditional video editing is slow, technical, and timeline-heavy.
This course shows you a faster, smarter way to edit videos using AI and text-based workflows.

In this class, you’ll learn how to turn raw footage into a clean, professional video by editing through transcripts instead of timelines. Using Detail for AI-powered video editing and Noise Reducer for cleaning audio, you’ll see how modern tools can handle tasks that once took hours—automatically.

I walk you through real, practical editing workflows, showing how to:

  • Edit videos by cutting and rearranging text

  • Clean background noise using AI

  • Generate accurate auto-captions

  • Add overlays, Picture-in-Picture, and visual elements

  • Create clear, engaging edits suitable for online courses, YouTube, and social media

This course is ideal for:

  • Content creators

  • Online instructors

  • Educators and trainers

  • Anyone who wants clean, professional videos without complex software

You don’t need prior editing experience. If you can record a video, you can edit it using the methods taught here.

By the end of this class, you’ll understand how AI and transcripts can completely change the way you approach video editing—making it faster, simpler, and more accessible.

Transcripts

1. Introduction: Video editing doesn't have to be complicated or technical. In this course, video editing using AI and text, I teach you how modern AI assisted video editing actually works. You learn how text based editing functions, how auto edits are created, and how you can cut, rearrange and refine videos simply by editing the transcript. I show how to use the detail app to structure your videos, apply auto edits, create picture and picture layout. Add overlays captions and other visual elements and turn raw footage into a clean, organized final video. You'll also learn how to improve poor audio using a noise reducer app, including removing background noise, mic crackle and uneven sound levels. I am Ricky Lahewe, a decision scientist by profession and a hobbyist content creator. And this course focuses on explaining each step clearly so you understand the editing process rather than following presets. If you want to learn how AI and text based video editing works in practice, this course will show you how. So thank you and join me in this course. 2. Introduction To Detail Software: Hey, everyone. Welcome to the first lecture in video editing using artificial intelligence and text course. And today, I'm going to introduce the app I'm going to be using to teach you how to do video editing, using artificial to follow the cursor on the screen. It's a huge cursor with a yellow border because when I demonstrate the software, when I click on certain things, et cetera, within the software, it's important you focus on the cursor because then you'll be able to follow what I'm doing easily. So the app I'm going to be using is known as detail, and this is the app, right? This is the app. It's called Detail, and I have already downloaded it. Now, this app, you can download it for free, but the free version has limitations. So what do you do? I'm going to open the app now. What you do is you go to the three dots over here, you go to settings, and you get a pro subscription. Now, the pro subscription is very reasonably priced, it's not very expensive. You can get it for around $20 per year. So for the whole year, you need to pay around 20, $30, no more than that. And this is such a useful app that you will not regret purchasing it. If I'm not mistaken, in India, this app costs 12 99 rupees per year. On Android, it might be cheaper. I'm using IOS. In America, it costs around $30 per year. And accordingly, the price varies according to geographical location. So get a subscription for this software. Now, if you look at this software, you'll see that there are a bunch of things you can do. You can record a reaction video. You can record a script. You can present slides. And this function, Import clips is what we are going to be using. But other than that, you can create podcast videos. You can do autoditTing head, and you can also auto edit podcasts, and you can do live streaming on this, too. But what we are going to be focused on is the Import clip function. So what happens when I do this, I'm going to delete this clip that I was editing before. Anyhow, so let's go to Import clip. Once I click on Import Clip, it gives me three options. Import from Photo, Import from URL, Import from files. So I can actually import from my Photos folder. IOS on my iPad. I'm going to click on Import from Files. And as you can see over here, I have a bunch of video shot over here. So I'll go to this personal finance course and pick out the lecture known as bonds. Follow the cursor always, right? That's all I'll tell you. So I'll click on bonds. I'll click on Open. And as you can see, I have my video in the software right now in the app, and now I'll show you how to edit it in the next lecture. Thank you so much. I'll catch you in the next lecture. 3. Detail Software Walkthrough: Hey, everyone. Welcome to a new lecture in the video editing using AI and text course. And today, I'm just going to or rather, in this lecture, I'm just going to give you a walk through of the software. Now, over here, just follow my cursor. You have the edit option, and you can do a bunch of editing over here, bunch of editing tools you have got over here. You have sources, precess layout framing. You can add captions. You can increase speed. You can add transitions between different scenes. You can change audio. You can add a filter to your video, and you have a Canvas option over here, too, which you can use to draw on the slide, right, and you have the export option right over here. So I'll just go through some of these in order to give you an idea about what you can do using this. So, for instance, layout, you can change the layout or you can do picture in picture. You can add a different clip to this clip that is there on the screen, and you can do picture in picture. For instance, speed, you can increase the speed of the video. Like this, you can drag it to a z and will increase the speed of the video. If you're doing transitions, for instance, you can change how the scene appears. Right now, I'll give no transition because I am going to demonstrate all of this in the future. For instance, if you go to Canvas, right, what you can do is you can add an image and you can change the background color if the video allows it, right? And you can add images using this. So all this I'll demonstrate later on. What I'll do right now is I'll go back and what you'll see over here if you click on this timeline where my cursor is, if you click on the timeline, you'll see that you have a bunch of options over here too. You can record. This allows you to record a new video which will be added to what we already have over here. I'll just demonstrate this. I'll click on record. And I am actually hiding my camera right now because I don't want anyone to see my room or my face. So I'm going to click on record. And as you can see, this will record, right? Anyhow, it's not important. I'm going to delete this clip. By clicking on Delete, I'm going to click on the clip, and I'm going to click on Delete. Anyhow, so we have the original video over here. And then, you know, in this original video, if I click on it, you know, you can then import and adds another video to this particular video. So if I click on Import, right over here, I click on Import from Files, I can add this asset allocation video from my personal finance course, which I teach offline to this video. As you can see, you have the first video over here where my cursor is ands highlighted in purple and you have the second video right on his tail. And it's highlighted in purple right now, right? So I'm going to delete this video because we don't need this. Then, you know, you have other options over here, too. You can auto edit, you can add captions. You can add music. You can add overlay, you can add voiceover. You can add snapshot and you can change the aspect ratio. So that's all there is to the software. It's not rocket science. It's a fairly simple software. And in the next video, I'll start with some of the editing options you have. Thank you so much. I'll catch you in the next video. 4. Different Editing Options: Hey, everyone. Welcome to a new video in my video editing using AI and text course. And today, I'll show you a few things you can do with the software. Suppose you want to change the aspect ratio of the software, right? What do you do? Well, usually, if you're doing it on I movies, it's a pain because you have to do a bunch of operations. If you're doing it on final cut, if you're doing it on let's say filma, you have to do a bunch of operations. Over here, it's simple. You click on aspect. As you can see, my mouse is hovering over aspect. You click on aspect, and you can change your aspect ratio from this, which is portrait to landscape. And if you change landscape, it'll automatically crop some of the video, or you can change it to square. You can change it to a square aspect ratio. So this is what you can do with aspect ratio. Now, if you want to take a snapshot, of this screen in order to use somewhere, you know, maybe as a course image if you're creating a course or maybe something else, you know, you can just click on Snapshot, and it'll take a snapshot or whatever is there on the screen and it'll save it to your photos folder. If you want to do a voice over, click on VoiceOver, go to whichever portion of the video you want to do a voiceover on. So, you know, you can scroll through the video, and let's say, I want to do a voiceover, starting right from the beginning, right? Instead of doing it from somewhere in the middle, I'll do it from the beginning, right? And I click on the pink microphone icon, the pink microphone button over which my cursor is hovering. I'll click on it, and I am recording voiceover right now. And as you can see, the voiceover has been recorded this particular entity on the timeline, and it's pink in color. So my mouse is hovering over it, so you can do a voiceover. In this case, I am going to Delete. As you can see, the delete option came up. Why? Because I clicked on it and I can actually increase the volume of the voiceover if I want. It has muted the original sound of the video because the video has had some sound rather. And if I make it 100%, and if I make the voice over 0%, so in that case, the original sound is going to be heard by the listeners, and if I make the original sound zero and the voice over 100%, then you'll hear the voice over. And if you click on Enhance, as you can see, you can enhance the voice over and make it sound better. What it'll do is it'll process the sound to make it sound better. Now, I am not going to spend more time on this because this is not adding any value to you in terms of using AI and text to edit whatever video you have. So in this case, what I'll do is I'll just click on the Voice over and delete it, right? What else can you do? Well, you can do an overlay. What does an overlay mean? Well, you can add text to the video or you can add an image to the video. Let's see what it does. We'll click on overlay. I'll click on text. What did I do? Just follow the cursor carefully. Click on text. And the screen comes up and let's say I want this particular text on my video. This is a great video. So I want this text on my video, and I'm going to click on Return. Or rather, I'm going to so I'm going to click on save right over here. And we have the text right over here. You can move the text around using this box where the text is contained. And what you can do is you can change the style of the text. You can make it kind of like this, which is a bit blurred. You can make it look like handwriting. You can make it look like, let's say, bold text, or you can make it look like an dlised text. You can also make it look like somewhat like this, bold and tyler sized, if I'm, you know, pronouncing it correctly. So you can change the style. You can change the color, too. You can make it red. You can make it blue. You can make it what is this beach. You can make it light green. You can make it kind of pink. Just follow my curse, right, as I'm doing it, you can pull up the color selector, and you can select colors from here. You can go to the spectrum and select colors from this particular palette, and you get a huge number of options because it's a palette, and you get a huge number of options. You can use the slider. You can increase the red, you can reduce the green. You can increase the blue and get your own sort of color. And anything you want to do in terms of color, you can do, and you can animate, too. How does this or how will this text appear on your video? Well, if you use the animation over which I have my cursor, well, it kind of pops up, right? If you use the animation over which I have the cursor right now, it kind of, again, you know, it expands into the box, right? If you use the other animation I have over here, well, it kind of drops down from above, right? So you can do a bunch of different things over here, right? And you can edit the text by clicking on the Pen button over here. You can edit the text. Let's say I add some text over here, right? This is a great video to watch. I click on Save. And how did I do this? Well, I clicked on the Pen button. And you can click on the button with the letter A, and this will expand the text this will make the text bigger and bigger. The more you click on it, it'll make it bigger. You can change the alignment. You can make it right aligned. You can make it left aligned, as you can see, my cursor is on the alignment icon, so you can change the alignment, and you can do a bunch of different things such as add a background to the text. In this case, as you can see, you have a background to the text, and the background is kind of purplish. And then if you go to the delete button, you can delete the text. That's what I'm going to do. My cursor is on the delete button. So my finance, actually, I'm going to check. And let's go to Olay again because we are not done with overlay. We can draw on the slide. What can we do? Well, we can use the pen option. This is the pen. We can change the color of the pen. And over here, you know, we can draw with finger, we can auto minimize, and you can change pencil settings. I'll not go into that. So let's say we have the red color over here and I can write. I can draw. I can do whatever I want to do. If I want to use the marker, option my cursor is on the marker pen. Then, you know, I can mark text over here, right? I can mark text on the video. This is an awesome option, which very few other software have. Final Cut does not have this neither. Does eye movies? Neither does Filmorkina master, right? So you can actually highlight stuff on the video, right? Imagine you're doing a presentation and you're doing this, right? You can use a rubber and click on the white rubber option and you can actually delete, I mean, not delete, but rub all this stuff that we have drawn off, right? So there are multiple options. You have different pens over here, you have pencils, markers, all of that. You have the eraser, too, and using the eraser, like I said, you can delete whatever you have done. And then, obviously, you can use the undo button and undo everything. So that is drawing on the video. Now, what else can you do with it? Well, you can use overlay to add an image. I've added the image. What it did was when I clicked on Image, it took me to my photos folder, and Android, it'll take you to your photos folder, too. And you can select an image and add an image. What can you do with this image? Well, you can animate this image, right, how it appears. Now, right now, my cursor is on no animation if I click on Animate. Like you can see on your screens, the picture is kind of popping up or, you know, forming from a blur. You can use another animation option. In which case, the picture kind of pops up. It expands into the screen or you can use the animate option I have over here. You can change the opacity of the picture. Like right now is very opaque. You can make it very transparent and in which case, you just cannot see it, or you can make it very opaque, right? This is what you can do and you can also play around with the background by clicking on the tool I have clicked on right now, I'm going to delete this picture. So we have finished with overlay. Now, you can add music also. Now, there are certain, as you can see, my cursor is hovering over these files, right? These are royalty free music provided by detail. You can use those. You can add some other music using files, for instance. You can add some music using files from here. If you have music stored on your computer, and if you add music, I'll add one of these tracks, right? So I click on this. It adds the track. And right now, as you can see pay another. But what I'm going to do is I'm going to reduce the volume of the track. You just need to click on the volume icon over here, the oudspeaker icon, and you can reduce the volume of the music from here, right? Or you can reduce the volume of the media from here and increase the volume of the music. In which case, it'll instruments. You can do, right? What I'm going to do is I'm going to delete this, right? I'm just going to delete this because I don't want music right now. So you have added music. And in the next lecture, I'll start with the real fun part, which is how to edit the video using captions and text which are generated using AI. And then in the lecture after that, I'll talk about auto edits. But for the time being, thank you so much. I'll catch you in the next lecture. 5. Editing Using AI: Hey, everyone. Welcome to a new lecture in the video editing using AI and Text Course, and I'm going to teach you in this lecture how you can edit videos using artificial intelligence and text. The first thing we're going to do to make this happen is click on captions. As you can see, I clicked on captions, and now this particular window pops up, and I'll click on Generate. Now, you can generate captions in multiple languages, right? But in this case, as you can see, it has auto detected the software, has auto detected English as the language of the video. But if you want to generate captions in Dutch, French, German, all of these, well, then obviously, you can do so. And you can have a multilingual video, right? But we'll stick to English, and we'll stick to the standard format, right? Because if some of you do not get the pro version, in that case, you can just use the standard format. I'll go back, right? And one more thing before I go back, you can actually select the model, right? You can use the Apple model, Apple's internal translation model for captions, or you can use the local model. Now with that being said, I'll go back, click on auto captions, and I'll click on Generate. And this is now generating my captions, as you can see, right over here is generating my captions and it's going to take a bit of time. And during that time, I'll click on this particular option, which is right over the timeline. My cursor is hovering over it. It's a pen symbol, right? And what it's doing is it's opening the edit with text format or rather edit with text window and tool in this particular software. And what it has done right now is that it has opened all the text of the video, in the sense, the captions it generated, it has created a full script for the video, and this is what we are going to use to edit. But for the time being, I'll just show you how the captions look, right? As you can see, you have captions right away. Beautifully done. Beautiful captions, right? And what you can do with the captions is you can edit the captions. Click on the tool over here and you can change the text of the captions. I don't need to do that. You can increase the size of the captions. You can increase the style of the captions. You can click on different styles right over here. As you can see, I'm clicking on different styles. You can change the color of the captions. You can use the color picker, the color selected to do so also. I'm fine with what I have. And what else can you do? You can change animation associated with the caption. So if I click on this particular animation, the caption is appearing one letter at a time. If I click on the animation beside it, the caption is appearing again in a different format, right? I can change the alignment of the caption. Follow my cursor. I'm clicking on the tool to change the alignment of the caption. I can change the font size of the caption and the style of the caption, in a sense, the font of the caption. I can background coloring if I want to, right? There are a bunch of options I can regenerate and I can do all of this using this. I'll just click on No animation. I'll change the color back to I'll use blue with this one, and I'll change the style of the caption. To blue because it suits the general color or general style of the presentation or the video in this case, that I'm using. So I have done all of this. I'll click on the tick Mark right over here, and I have my captions. Now, I will show you how to use these captions to edit, right? And this is one of the key tools and one of the key techniques I'll teach you is very simple. Click on this particular button. With the pen symbol. And let's say, first thing we want to do is we want to remove silences. And we want to do this manually. So click on silence, right? As you can see, from 0.0 seconds to 4.4 seconds, there's silence. Is there silence? Let's check. Let's go to the absolute beginning of the video, and let's play it. So, indeed, there is silence, right? So I'll click on this particular portion of the video where there's silence. How do I do that? Well, I'll go to the three dots over here. On the top right corner, follow my cursor, and I'll click on select, and I'll select the silence over here, 4.4 seconds silence. And I'm going to go down and delete it. Where else is there silence? Okay, let me scroll down and see if there's more silence. There's some silence right over here, which I want to cut. It's 1.2 seconds, which is a lot, if you ask me. I'll click on this and click on Delete, right? Or I can click on the ribbon over here, the tab with all the different tools. I click on silences, and it has automatically highlighted all the silences. Now, these are silences which disrupt the flow of the video. I am going to delete all of them. That's it. No more silences, right? Simple as that. Now, let's say I want clean cut. What does this do? It's very simple. The clean cut cleans up everything and gives you what you require. And in this case, it'll give me the summary of the video. How? Let me play the summary. Regular. Now, as you can see, the video is 4 minutes in length, but this particular summary is 49 seconds. Look at my cursor where my cursor is, right? So if I go right near the end of the sum. So what the AI engine of this particular tool has done is it has created a summary for me. If I want to, let's say, I have a 1 hour long video and I want a summary which I want to upload as shots or let's say, I have a 1 hour long lecture and I want to summarize it so that I can actually introduce the lecture to people who will find out who understand what is being talked about in a nutshell, then I'll use a summary tool, right? And then there's the clip tool. It's very simple. This clip tool again will give you a clip that encompasses the most important information you have in your video. The AI engine will automatically analyze your video and come up with what is more suitable as a summary and what is more suitable as a clip, relevant material that can easily explain what the video is all about. And then you have different topics right over here. Now, this video is about bonds. What are bonds are basically investment instruments. People buy bonds. They lend money to governments, et cetera, so that they can make you know, some degree of money or some degree if they can get some degree of appreciation for their money over a period of time. Now, what has the AI engine done? It has created topics. It has used topic modeling to create topics with regards to bonds. Now, look at the first topic, bond 101. This can itself be a short lecture. If you have a 1 hour long lecture, it'll create ten, 15 topics for you, and this can indeed be a short lecture which you can upload on different platforms. Or you have a 1 hour long explanatory video, you can create multiple short video using these topics. So for instance, you can see bond 101 has information regarding what bonds are, and it has selected three particular sentences from the whole transcript, these three sentences over which my cursor is hovering, and this explains what bonds are in a nutshell. If I'm talking about what bonds do, this has selected four different sentences in the transcript, four different parts of the video. And based on that, it has created a new video, which is 15 seconds in length. Look at the timeline. It's 15 seconds in length. And what you can do is right now, as you are editing this, you can actually either delete this video or share this video. Let's click on share. What does this do is very simple. I'll share this 15.4 seconds video, which is about bonds. It's a part of the wider lecture, bigger lecture, longer lecture about bonds, but this is a topic that is discussed in the lecture. So what it has done is it has picked up this topic. It has isolated this topic by analyzing all the text in the video, and you can now save this or share this. You can share it. You can export it and share it or you can save it. I'll export to your folder, local folder. I'll go back to the transcript right? So there are multiple topics. For instance, look at Amazon growth. I've spoken about Amazon and how Amazon has grown over the years in this lecture. And over here, as you can see, the artificial intelligence engine has highlighted five different sentences in my transcript which explain what Amazon is all about. And this particular Amazon growth story can be a lecture by itself, can be a short video by itself, right? So that is what you can do with this. Now, what if I want to delete this part of the video? I think this is not relevant or maybe I think, you know, I messed it up. You know, the way presented it was awkward or I made mistakes. I just click on Delete, and it's gone. Simple as that, right? It's gone. Now, let's say I want to delete a particular sentence from this video. So what I do is right over here, I have the first sentence. Hey, everyone, welcome to a new lecture in Personal Finance. And today, I'm going to talk about bonds. Let's say I don't need this. People already know the lecture is about bonds. So what I'll do is I'll click on this lecture, and I'll just click on Delete. And let's play the video now, right? And you'll see that once I have done this and I'll click on Done, The first line is gone. Wait. The silence also is gone. I played the video, and there was a part of silence. Now look at what it has done. There. You saw what it did? It removed the silence and it removed the first line, right? And the first line right now is bonds. Bonds are, right? Let's go to select again, right? And we're going to click on bonds over here. We're going to delete the entire first section of the lecture. Simple as that. And it has divided the lecture into different sections. So the video, it has divided into different chapters, different sections. That is what the AI engine in this tool has done. I'll delete the entire first section, right? I'll delete this section too. So the first section right now is, I'll delete this understanding pawns as investments, right? And if I want to delete something else, let's say, I'll delete the second section, I can do so too, because I feel the information may not be necessary, and it has deleted the second section also. What else can you do with this well? You can select all or you can delete, deselect all. You can share the transcript. Click on share the transcript and you'll get a transcript of the whole video that you have made, and you can save it somewhere, right? Or you can select Inverse, right? You can deselect and select Inverse. You can completely deselect whatever you've selected right over here. Now, if you select this particular word in the lecture, as you can see, you can share the transcript of this, and this will send it to your files, right? So this is what you can do essentially with this tool. That is how AI can be used to edit your video. Now look at the video right now, right? The video was 4 minutes in length. Now, I'll go to the end of the video, and as you can see, the video has been divided into chapters, right? I'll go to the end of the video. Now it's 3 minutes in length because I deleted and removed two sections, right? And I can delete and remove more sections. Now, what I can do is I can use this chapter tool to generate chapters, right? Absolutely classified into different chapters, right? So I'll click on Generate and this tool will regenerate chapters. And as you can see right now, chapters have been regenerated, right? If I want to delete a full chapter, right? Simple, click on the name of the chapter and delete it. Delete. And the chapter is gone, right? So this is how you do it on this software. You can use AI and transcripts to not only delete portions, delete silences, delete places where your main mistakes, but you can also divide the video into chapters and then, you know, pre make video clips out of each chapter or present or upload wherever you're uploading your content or video as different chapters, right? You can do it automatically using this particular tool. You don't need to do it manually. It saves a lot of time because you can easily divide the video into chapters, delete chapters, re, you know, reorder chapters, do whatever you want, right? And you can generate the transcript again because like I said, I have deleted a lot from the video. I'll generate it again as it's generating. Imagine what you can do with this. You can actually create if you have a 1 hour long lecture on let's say, Russian history, and you are planning to upload it to YouTube and present it to everyone, you know, in the sense that, you know, you're a content creator who writes about history. So if you have something like that, you can break it into different chapters. You can edit it using text. You can remove portions, you can remove silences. And these chapters that are created by the software, you can use them to create different short videos. But there's another tool to create different short videos. I'll close this transcript creation tool for the time being. You have all these transcripts. The other tool that you can use to create chapters, create short videos is auto edit, and that is what I'll talk about in the next lecture. Thank you so much. Thank you for joining me in this lecture. I'll catch you in the next. 6. Auto Edit: Hey, everyone. Welcome to a new lecture. Today I'm going to talk about the auto edit AI based tool that you can use to firstly divide your whole video into different clips. You can create shots. You can create different clips using this, and you can also make sure that all the silences all that are gone. So what I've done is I've actually re uploaded the video because I want the whole video for the tool to work on. And what I'll do is first, I'll click on aspect ratio. I'm going to change the aspect ratio of this video to a square, right? And I'm going to click on the tick Marks. And now what I'll do is I'll click on Auto Edit. And this is a great tool. You can use it for podcast, too, video podcast. But what I'll do is I'll use it for the talking head or I'll use the talking head option. Now, what you can do is you can add background music. We don't want that. It can automatically add background music. I mean, I can demonstrate it, but it'll be a waste of time because you know what it does, right? I'll add background music. It can add captions also. I'll keep the captions options because I have actually re uploaded the video, and it can add a title. It can add titles, and it can do Zoom cuts, right? And the language, well, it can do it in English. It can add the captions in English. It can create the content in English or in a bunch of other languages. I'll go back to the auto Edit screen, and as you can see, our Autodit setup, let's click on Continue. And this will take a bit of time, but this is the best AI based tool to do a lot of things. Firstly, you know, to convert your long videos into short eclips, be it shots, I'll create shots for you. I'll create small clips for you. And you can do a bunch of stuff with this. And this is probably the only software where you can use it, and that is why I'm teaching you how to do all these AI based things that many of the other softwares do not provide. All these tools that many of the other software do not provide. I'm teaching you how to do this using this software because this is the best software in the market to do these things. And it's not about teaching you how to use the software. It's about teaching you how to actually work on a project and use AI to make the project perfect, right? So I showed you in the previous lecture, for instance, you can delete portions of a project, places where your main mistakes, entire sections, entire chapters you can delete, and the AI will create chapters for you. And in this case, using the auto edit, it's doing that automatically, it's creating a number of shots for you as you see, and is creating smaller clips for you and is cleaning up your audio. It's a great tool, and if you're using it for YouTube or wherever you're uploading content, maybe you're teaching courses, you're doing YouTube or anything of that sort, right, you can use this for all of it. And it does not take a lot of time, as you can see, it's pretty rapid. It's pretty fast and 86% done so soon, I'll be able to show you what you can achieve using this particular tool, and it's done. So you have the original over here, which is essentially the video that we have been using to demonstrate and to explain how to use AI and what sort of techniques to use to change your video, right? And right now, if you want to you know, have shorter videos from your longer video in order to upload it to YouTube. Suppose you have Joe Rogan experience, and it's a three hour long video. What this sort of software can do is it can actually cut smaller portions from it. Let's look at the bonds versus equity video, right? It's a small video, right? How small? Well, it's 1 minute, 29 seconds. And what it has done is it has picked up a portion of my lecture, picked up a portion of my video, and made it a clip. Hey, everyone, welcome to a new lecture in personal finance. And today, I'm going to talk about bonds. The bonds are they are another investment mechanism you can use to invest, and these are debt instruments where investors lend money to issue. So as you can see, it has picked up a smaller portion of my whole video in order to create a smaller video. Now, I'll use auto edit again. I'll not add background music at this point in time, and you've seen how it adds captions. It'll automatically add captions. You can use you can retain the original video, or you can use a shorter video that it makes for you. So I'm going to switch off captions again, and I'll show you the shots that this particular tool can create. And as you have seen, it has created a smaller video, but it actually creates YouTube shots exactly 59 seconds or 58 seconds, you know, 1 minute, whatever YouTube requires for shots, right? It creates that, and you can create a whole number of a bunch of different videos from a longer video using the Auto Edi tool, right? And you can export these things also. Whatever you have created, you can export. I'll show you how. It's 65% and as you can see, because I've not asked for captions, it's doing it really fast. It's doing it really fast. Almost there. This is the most important powerful tool that you'll find in this particular software. This particular app, and you can use it to do so much, and I'm teaching you how to do different sort of edits, different sort of stuff in this, as I mentioned in the course prospective, in the course objectives, how to create shots, how to create, you know, different sort of videos or let's go down. As you can see, it has created a bunch of different auto edited videos at this point in time, right? And what you can do is you can click on the three dots over here. You can rename them or delete them. And this is what it has done. It has created YouTube shots. So out of a 1 hour long video, for instance, if you want to create YouTube shots, it's very easy using AI because AI will automatically edit and cut different clips and shots for you. Imagine you are making a movie and you have the stool. I'll create different it'll create a trailer for you. It'll create different shots for you, right? And you can rename them. And as you can see, you have different shots. You have 59 seconds, shots, 29 31 seconds, 29 seconds, 27 seconds, 11 seconds, you know, 9 seconds, you have a bunch of different shots. This is what Auto Edit does, right? And let's say you want one particular shot, let's say, the Amazon success story is something that you're interested in, right? And what you can do is you can play this. I mean, you don't make the kind of money you would have made if you had bought equity in Amazon in the 90s. Right? And what you can do with this is you can change the style of the title style because I asked Auto Edit to title or rather to name the shots to give the shots a name. So it has added a title known as the Amazon story. You can change the title. You can change the color. You can also and write. I've already shown you how to do all of these things. Or you can remove you can actually delete the title or edit the text. It's called Amazon Story. Let's say I name it Amazon story bond, whatever. It makes no sense, but anyhow, but you can see what it does, right? From the beginning, I'll play it again. I mean, you don't make the kind of money you would have made if you had bought it. Right? And you can delete this if you want to, right? You can delete this. Simple as that, not rocket science, 31 seconds. What I will do, though, is I will show you how to export this particular clip. It's very simple. You go on Export over here. Follow my mouse, follow the cursor, go on Export, and you can share or save. Click on save, I'll export. Click on share, I'll export, too, and you'll be able to share it to your favorite folder or you know, wherever you want to share it, right? So this is what Auto Edit does, right? And how do you get back to Auto Edit? Very simple, right? I'll show it to you again so that you don't miss it. You go to this particular button on the top left corner, right? You have the short clip Amazon story over here. And let's say you want to export something else, listen to something else, and then export it. Well, go to this button over here, follow my mouse, and you can get all your auto edited videos, short clips, cleaned up clips here. It'll clean up silences. It'll make your video awesome. But I'm going to go back to the original because I intend to show you the basic editing tools in this software too so that you can do basic editing if you want to. With that being said, that's all for this lecture. Thank you so much. I'll catch you in the next. 7. More Editing Options: Hey, everyone. Welcome to a new lecture. And today, I'm going to show you some of the basic editing tools that you have in this software because sometimes you do require basic editing tools. Let's go to aspect and let's make it Square. Let's click on the tick Marks over here. Follow my cursor. Let's click on the Video it's a four minute long video. And when we click on the video, you see there are a bunch of options over here. The first thing I'm going to do is I'm going to trim the video. There's a bit of silence in the beginning, see? I'm going to trim the first 4 seconds. What can I do? How can I do this? Well, I'll go to the edge of the video, the left edge of the video, and I'll click on the edge. And as you can see over here, there's a arrow over here. There's a left arrow over here. I'll click on that arrow and I'll pull to the right. Kind of like this, right? I'll pull to the right. What does that do by pulling to the right? It shortens the video. I'll go up to the cursor head or the selector head. And right now, as you can see, I have removed the silence at the beginning of the video. Very simple, not rocket science, very simple, right? And I'll go back to the start of the video. Let's listen to this. Here, you want to welcome to new silence is gone. Let's say we want to remove the silence from the ending of the video because there's a little bit of silence at the end of the video. And if you want to expand or contract the timeline, it's very simple, right? Pinch or not pinch, rather use two fingers and either stretch out the timeline by moving the two fingers away from each other or bring them closer together in order to contract the timeline in order to shorten the timeline. In the sense that the timeline becomes can be contained within your screen. So I have done that. Now I'll go to the edge of the video, right? Look at it. The right edge, the ending, and there's an arrow mark. And let's say, after playing the video, I realize that I have to cut a few seconds from the end. How do I do this? It's very simple. I click on the edge and I pull it to the left, kind of like this, right? I pull it to the left. I slide to the left and cut portions of the video that contain silence. Now, you don't need to do this in this software because you have auto edit and you have the other editing tool where you can use transcripts to edit, and you can easily remove silences using transcript. But in case you want to do this manually, right? In that case, like I said, this is a way to do it, right? Just click on the edge on the arrow and pull it to the left, right? Kind of like that. Now, if you want to split the video into two, now, I have my select a head right over here, right? Playhead rather. Not select a head, but playhead right over here, right in the middle, right? So I want to split the clip into two. What do I do? Well, my selector head is here. I'll click on split. And if I want to delete a portion of the video, simull click on that portion and click on Delete. I'll go back. I'll undo it. So now you know how to split, right? And other than that, what else can you do? Well, a bunch of other things. You can go to Canvas and you can change the background color, right? Now, in this case, in this video, the background color change does not make much sense because it's a lecture, and the video basically is a slide, but, you know, you can add masking or you can remove masking. Does not make much difference in this video. Click on the purple stick mark symbol, right? You can use filters, right? You can use different filters. Just like in any other video app, you can use, let's say, S autumn, you can use golden. You can use Sunshine, we'll keep it at sunshine. We'll use the sunshine filter. Does not make much change because this video is not exactly your, you know, movies or a video is more of a lecture. And then you can play around with the audio, right? You can reduce the media audio. And if you have voice over, you can reduce the microphone audio, right? I've already shown you this. Or you can use transitions. Now, what do transitions do? If you are moving from one seed to another? By using transitions, you can add some animation, right? For instance, if I add let's say, right now, I have no transitions, and then I decide to add the transition over which my cursor is right now. And as you can see this transition, it scales in, right? Or else we can add something else, right? We can add the transition over which my cursor is in. And in this case, the scene slides in, or we can add the transition, which is basically where, you know, it'll use smart tools or rather artificial intelligence to decide how to animate the video, right? Or we can use flash transitions, right, where the screen flashes in, right? And we can change the speed of the transition. We can make it slower. We can make it moderately slow. We can make it fast. So we can do all of this using the transition tool, right? Let's play this again. Here, as you saw, the screen flashed in because I had the flash transition on. You can increase the speed of the video. You can make it three X, two X if you want to. You can do that too using this particular tool, you can add obviously as you already know, you can add captions or what you can do is you can frame. What do I mean by frame? Well, it's very simple. You can expand the scene, you can contract the scene. You can expand the scene, contract the scene, and change the frame of reference, and change the positioning of this content within the entire screen, within the aspect ratio. So you can expand, you can contract. That is what you can do by dragging and zooming using two fingers. That is what you can do the bonds lecture over here. And over here, as you can see, you have another bond detailed screen. So what you can do if you are doing picture and picture, right? You can add a talking head. You can add yourself talking about this particular topic, while, you know, in the background, you have the slides with the slide content. Going on, and you're explaining it and you video yourself, you basically photograph yourself talking about it, you video yourself talking about it. Shoot yourself out. And you can add that video to this very simple. And you can change the shape of the picture in picture, right? You can make it circular, right? Or you can make it kind of like this where you have two screens. So let's say the left one is you talking about bonds, and the right one is the presentation, right? And you can use different another option is kind of like this where, you know, you have one rectangular or one portrait kind of screen and basically kind of like a landscape screen, and you can change the shape, right? You can change the shape of the different pictures, right? You can make them rectangular. You can make them look like they are shot using a smartphone, or you can use kind of a blurred kind of schema over here, and you can add shadows also. You can add shadows kind of like this, drop shadow. You can add a glow shadow between the two scenes. You can add a outline shadow or you can add an image blur, right? That is what you can do over here, right? And you can change the alignment. I use the alignment change tool over here. You can change the alignment using this, right? Using this particular tool, look at where my cursor is. So you can swap resources. You can do some framing. You can obviously go to masking again. And what you can do is you can basically go to Canvas or rather framing over here, and you can zoom one particular clip while you can zoom in or zoom out another particular clip. You can zoom in one clip. You can zoom out one clip. You can do a bunch of stuff using the framing tool, which detail provides you in case you want a picture in picture sort of scenario, right? And right now the picture in picture that you saw contains what contains very simply right? The lecture that I am using as a sample over here and it's showing you essentially the same lecture as a picture in picture, as a picture within the picture. How can you change that? How can you add something else? Very simple. You go to sources, right? And you have sources right over here. You can add an image, you can add a video, or you can go to a folder and add a file. What I'll do is I'll go to the folder right over here. I'll add the asset allocation file, right? So right now instead of the bond lecture, I have the asset allocation lecture as the picture in picture, right? If I want to look at the bond lecture as a picture in picture, I'll click on the bond lecture. If I want to look at the asset allocation lecture, I'll click on the asset allocation lecture. The lectures are where my cursor is hovering. So I have the asset allocation lecture. I have the bond lecture. I'll keep asset allocation lecture. Right? I can go back to what it was, or rather I can put the lecture in the back, the smaller picture in picture lecture, or I can put it to the front right like this. Now, what I'm going to do is I'm going to go back to layout, and I'm going to clean this up right. I have the asset allocation lecture. I have the bond detail lecture, and I'm going to remove all the shadows, right? I'm going to remove shadows. I'm going to normal. I'm going to remove all the shadows so that you can easily understand how it looks, and I will show you how it looks essentially kind of like this, right? And I can use framing or I can just even without using framing, I can expand this using two fingers. I just need to slide the fingers away from each other. And as you can see, I'm expanding it. I'm expanding the picture in picture and asset allocation, I have a video, which is a picture in picture, a part of the bond video, but asset allocation is another video, right? And what happens when I play this? Sure. Both of them play together. So usually you're not supposed to do this. You're not supposed to do picture in picture with two videos. What you're supposed to do is you can have a slide in the background and you have yourself talking about the slide. And instead of this asset allocation video, you know, over which my cursor is hovering, you can have yourself talking about bonds, talking about different types of bonds, et cetera while you have the slide in the background, right? That is what you can do. But like I said, the layout tool allows you to do picture in picture, and the sources tool allows you to add different sources. Right now, I have to. I have the bonds lecture, and I have the asset allocation lecture, which I have selected, right? That is what this particular tool allows you to do, right? And you can use aspect ratios. Also, through this tool, through this sources tool, I have used the aspect ratio fit. I can use fill, right? Look at where my cursor is. I can use fit or fail. I'm using fit in this case, I can do framing, I can swap resources, right? In the sense, I can make the asset allocation lecture, the main background by using swap resources, or I can use SWAP resources to make the bond lecture, the main background, bonds lecture, the main background, right now, the bonds lecture is the main background slide, background video. If I click on SWAP again, I'll make the asset allocation lecture, the background video. So that is what you can do with sources now. If you go to presets, obviously, right, you can use different sort of presets over here, different sort of, you know, formats or schemes or different type of presentations. You can play around with this, but, you know, it all depends on which sort of video you are editing. But I'll stick to what is the most natural over here. So I have one lecture over here. And if you want to add, I'll say this again, if you want to add something new to the timeline, a new lecture, you go to Import and do it, right? You import from files. And wherever your playhead is, it'll add there, right? So let's say I want to add arts and collectibles, this particular lecture over here, I'll click on open right now, as you can see. Today, I'm going to talk about nontraditional investments. It's being added, right? It's being added. So you have one clip over here, arts and collectibles, and you have another clip over here. So it's been added to the lecture. Thank you so much. Here, you want to welcome. So that is how you add different lectures. Now, let's say I want a lecture at the end, not at the beginning, I'll go to the end. I'll click on Import. I'll click on Import from Files and I'll select this commodity investment lecture from my offline course on finance. And this commodity investment lecture now has been added to the end, right? To the end of the bond signature. Por how much money. Thank you so much for cuing lecture. And there you go. The commodities investments lecture has been added to the end of the bonds lecture. So depending on where your playhead is, if you add, if you want to add, just click on Import and add. And that's the software, right? That's essentially the software. Finally, if you want to export, click on Export, and I've shown you this before. Export sequence, you can share a link. With that being said, thank you so much. In the next lecture, I'll teach you how to reduce noise, and we are going to use the same bonds video to demonstrate a different tool in this case. Thank you so much. 8. Noise Reduction: Hey, everyone. Welcome to a new lecture. And in this lecture, I'll demonstrate and teach you how to reduce noise from any video, right? And the way to do it is to download this particular tool called Noise Reducer. It's a great tool, and I have already downloaded it. Now, there's a free tire. I'll work for free, but there is a limit on how much you can do, limit on how many videos you can you know, you can clean up. But I'll click on Open right over here. And right now we are in the app and you can import a video from camera. That is you're actually clicking a video using your camera. You can import a video from photos and you can import a video from files. Right now, what I'll do is I'll show you how to get a subscription for this. And as you can see, there's this gear option on the top right corner follow my cursor. And I have premium. Now, the premium costs cost me around $8 or $7. And it's a lifetime, you know, buy once use forever sort of deal. So it's a great deal in the US and UK or in the EU region or in Africa. The pricing might vary based on where you are. So take a look at that, but it's pretty reasonable. It's not very expensive at all. So I'll go back and I'm going to import a video from file. I'll import the same bond video. And what it's doing is directly reducing noise. Why am I demonstrating this tool? Because it's so simple to use? No complexity. You don't need to go on audacity to clean up. You know, you have to import, and then you have to find stuff you have to clean out. And that is how I used to do it, you know, find areas in the clip where, you know, there's a little bit of noise or more noise than acceptable. And then, you know, remove noise from the hole. Video is a far more easier process using this particular tool. To clean it up, right? And that is what it's doing. It's reducing the noise. Simple as that, it's cleaning the video up. It's going to take some time. I'll catch you in a few seconds. Now, as you can see, you have reduced noise over here and here, let's complain and see how much work this software has done. I'm going to piece the volume of my. As you can see, there's me taking act noise reduction sounds like. As you can see, Hey, everyone welcome to a new lecture. Breathing personal finance. Bots or deep bread. There are a mechanics used to invest. And these are debts. So essentially, the original audio had me breathing in the beginning. That noise has been Hey, everyone, welcome to lecture. In personal finance noise reduction has done what this particular app has done in terms of, everyone welcome to news today, I'm going to talk about. Breathing mechanism Bumping sounds. It has removed the fuzziness from the Video instrument from the video. Investors lend money to What's You can extract audio from video, right? So this is what noise reducer does. Cleans up your sound, makes your video sound awesome. So after you all the AIB it the different Editing tools final product. What do you do about the audio? Well, Noise reducer, which is very inexpensive. You just esta depending on how much No rocket science. You don't need to do anything. AI will do the company for you or the government. That's all their involvement. That is this lecture. Well, next lecture, I'll just recap everything, based on what you have done. 9. Outro: Hey, everyone. In this course, you have learned how AI and text based video editing works from start to finish. We covered how text based editing translates into real video cuts, how auto edits are generated and how to organize and refine footage efficiently. You learned how to use the detail app to apply auto edits, create picture in picture layouts, add overlays and captions, and structure videos in a clean, repeatable way. We also work through improving audio quality using a noise reducer app, focusing on removing background noise, mic crackle and uneven sound. I am Ricky Lahiri, a decision scientist by profession and a hobbyist, content creator, and the goal of this course was to help you understand the editing process clearly so you can apply it confidently in your own projects. You should now be able to edit faster, make informed editing choices, and use AI tools as assistance rather than shortcut. Thank you so much for joining me in this course. I hope you had a great time and learned loads. Thank you. Goodbye.
