Hey everyone! I've been editing videos for about 3 years now, mostly for YouTube and Instagram. Recently, I've been hearing a lot about AI tools that can automate parts of the editing process – things like auto-captions, scene detection, and even auto-color grading. I'm intrigued but also worried that leaning too much on AI might make my videos feel generic or lose that personal touch that my audience loves. I've tried a few online tools like Descript and Runway, but I'm not sure if they're worth the subscription cost for a solo creator like me.
I'm looking for practical advice on how to integrate AI into my workflow without sacrificing creativity. Specifically, I want to know: which AI tools are actually reliable and worth the money? How can I use them for tasks like transcription, b-roll selection, or even thumbnail creation? And most importantly, how do you keep your unique style when AI is doing the heavy lifting? I'd love to hear from creators who have successfully automated parts of their editing process. What does your workflow look like now compared to before? Any pitfalls to avoid? Thanks in advance for your insights!
