What is the AI Editor?
Scenery’s AI Editor streamlines your video editing process by shortening the tedious, uncreative aspects of editing from your workflow. With the AI Editor, you can quickly generate a focused edit for a video by describing what you want with a prompt-based UI. In a lot of ways, you can think of it like a really fast and thorough editing intern.
How it works:
The AI Editor analyzes and categorizes your content based on the transcript, then lets you quickly create an edited cutdown by describing what they want to create. For example, you can take that hour long interview and ask the AI Editor to:
“Edit this to only show the responses from the interviewee, removing all the questions that the interviewer asks”
“Create a 90 second edit that features the funniest responses for sharing on social media”
Once the edit is generated, you can refine the edit as needed or try a new prompt and easily compare the two.
Generating an edit:
💡 Eligible Media: Must have audio to transcribe - the AI Editor generates edits based on analysis of the media’s transcript
Open a project or go to your media library
Select your media
Hit the “AI Assist” button
Choose or confirm content type from dropdown list
Choose from prompts or create your own
Determine if you’d like to “Add the to end” of your current Scene or if you’d like to create a new one (by unchecking the box, the AI editor will create a new Sene).
Select “Generate”
Your edit will now be placed on timeline
💡 Pro Tip: Save your prompt to your Team Settings
Refining your edit:

Recommended workflows:
Import, Generate, Refine, Repeat:
A classic workflow within the AI Editor consists of importing a long media clip, let’s say an hour long interview, and asking the AI Editor to use one of the prompts Scenery provides for you. From here, you can alter the prompt or simply click generate.
For example, you can take an hour long interview and ask the AI Editor to:
“Edit this to only show the responses from the interviewee, removing all the questions that the interviewer asks”
Then create another scene and ask the AI Editor to:
“Create a 90 second edit of the most thought provoking discussions within this episode for distribution on social media”
Once the edits are generated, you can refine as needed and add the bells and whistles to ultimately export and publish your video
Create new scenes for each AI Edit and compare different outcomes:
Whether you use a prompt provided or created or own, once you generate your first edit, you can try new prompts and easily compare to other scenes.
For example, you can take an hour long interview and ask the AI Editor to:
“Edit this to only show the responses from the interviewee, removing all the questions that the interviewer asks”
Then create another scene and ask the AI Editor to:
“Extract the quotes that highlight the responses from the interviewee with no duplicates”
From here, you can decide which of the two results you like better and continue to refine the edit from the Scene that had the better outcome
