Jev is a super fast video editor! Edited this entire video in less than a minute, and here's how: First, I transcribed raw vid locally with word timestamps, cut it into 16 beats, then asked Jev these seven questions about every beat: does this line need a visual at all? which card template? (18 to pick from, premade) which text effect? which transition into it? how hard do we punch in on the face? which sound effect? which word gets emphasised? Plus five about the video as a whole. Style, colour, caption treatment, energy, progress bar. 117 questions answered by jev < 1 s ~ $0.0017 Using @typesafeai via @LiteLLM
