Creative update
Video Editor in Omni AI Companion
Video Editor brings clips, images, and audio into one place for shaping a story. Its strength is the judgment between moments: what belongs first, where a cut breathes, and how a viewer should feel when the sequence ends.
What changed
A sequence can be shaped in one workspace
You can gather the ingredients of a short piece and focus on order, rhythm, transitions, and emphasis.
Editing is more than assembly
A good cut removes distraction and makes the intended story easier to follow. The editor gives you a place to test that structure before sharing.
Why this feature matters
It suits personal recaps, early social drafts, explainers, and small creative experiments. A parent can turn a weekend into a concise memory; a nonprofit can assemble a clear event recap from approved footage.
The editor cannot decide whether you have permission to use every asset or whether a claim is accurate. Watch the complete piece with sound, captions, and audience context in mind before publishing.
Feature examples and use cases
- A memory recap: A family arranges a few phone clips into a gentle two-minute travel story.
- An event update: A volunteer cuts approved interviews and detail shots into a recap for a community newsletter.
- A teaching explainer: A student combines diagrams and narration into a clear sequence for a class presentation.
How to use it
- Open the editor: Use Side menu → Media → Video Editor and gather the clips, images, and audio you are allowed to use.
- Build the story: Place the strongest context early, trim pauses, and use transitions only when they help the viewer understand a change.
- Review the complete cut: Watch with sound on and off, check captions and names, and preview the final sharing choice before publishing.
Tips for a better first try
- Make a rough cut before polishing transitions.
- Let each clip answer a story question.
- Check the first and last five seconds especially carefully.
Limitations and things to know
- Supported media, editing controls, and preview behavior may vary by current version.
- You are responsible for permissions, claims, captions, and the audience that receives a finished video.
Availability
Available from Video Editor when it appears in the Media menu. Current import and editing options are shown in the editor.
Frequently asked questions
What should I edit first?
Start with order and clarity, then refine timing, transitions, sound, and visual polish.
Can I publish directly?
Review the available sharing controls and the destination carefully; creation and publishing are separate decisions.
Why does my edit feel long?
Remove repeated context and pauses, then watch again to see whether every remaining moment earns its place.
