Using AI and Machine Learning in Video Editing
The world of video editing is seeing some exciting advancements recently. Thanks to the inclusion of AI in editing programs, people are able to create videos with greater precision, richer color, and more special features than ever before.
So, just what is it that AI is helping to bring about in the world of video editing? We will take a closer look in the sections below.
Benefits of AI in video editing programs
AI is making a major difference in all areas of life recently, and video editing is no exception. In automating many of the tasks previously done manually, AI is allowing people to focus on the larger task of coming up with creative ideas.
Indeed, both the visual aspects of video production - such as color correction, background removal, and filter adjustment - and audio functions such as noise adjustment are similarly enhanced through AI. It also saves time: One recent study showed that video production time was reduced by 62% thanks to the use of AI in the process.
How it all works
Gaining an understanding of how AI functions in video editing programs is instrumental in understanding what it means for you. The technologies behind AI are the following:
Machine learning algorithms
AI is a function of machine learning. Machine learning works by analyzing huge amounts of data and looking for specific key components. When it comes to things like video editing programs, this can be extremely useful because the algorithms used in machine learning processes are able to scan the visual and audio aspects of videos and detect patterns, come up with ideas, and generally make videos far more professional.
Automatic recognition
One of the most exciting aspects of AI is the ability to recognize objects and faces automatically. This not only allows you to create tags more easily in video editing programs, but AI can create corresponding elements with ease, and suggest filters, transitions, and other elements for exciting video clips.
Recognition features are useful not only because they allow for more sophisticated editing. This feature makes life easier for video creators because they can utilize their videos with much greater ease. This includes:
- The ability to categorize videos according to any number of different criteria
- The ability to search for particular features according to what is important to a given user
- The ability to retrieve videos within milliseconds, which can be essential if you are working with a large library
Audio elements
AI is capable of analyzing and reproducing sound structures so that audio can be created for different audiences. There are several advantages to this:
- In using machine learning algorithms to scan speech patterns, programs are able to determine the precise pitch, tone, and other features that comprise any given person's voice.
- It is also able to reproduce languages using similar mechanisms, right down to regional accents and even individual characteristics.
- AI also has the ability to create “smart” sound patterns and designs. This can mean coming up with ideas for background scores to accompany video. It can involve the creation of sound effects that can complement a storyline. It can also mean the overall improvement of a given video's sound quality.
Tracking and responding to requests
AI can come up with ideas for video enhancement on its own, based upon features that it detects in videos. It can also come up with ideas based upon prompts put in by the user. If you are looking to create a particular mood, include specific patterns, elements, etc, you can simply tell a program the kinds of things you want and it will respond accordingly. You can even add a countdown timer video for videos that you want to add a special punch to.
Collaboration between you and intelligent systems
Creating high-quality, innovative, and interesting videos now holds even greater promises than ever before. Between you, the others on your team, and AI-driven video editing programs, you can now produce videos that you would never before have thought possible. So get a hold of an editing program today and start exploring the possibilities. You will likely be amazed at the results.
