Video Creation & Editing

LYPS AI’s Video Creation & Editing module simplifies and accelerates the process of turning your raw footage, images, or generated media into polished videos. By combining AI-driven suggestions and automated editing decisions, creators can focus on storytelling rather than time-consuming manual edits.

Key Features

1. AI-Driven Video Synthesis

   • Generate new video sequences from a series of images or an initial video clip.

   • Ideal for rapid content prototyping, short social media reels, or animated introductions.

2. Automatic Editing Suggestions

   • Intelligent scene detection to group related footage.

   • Automated transitions, including fade-ins/outs, cuts, or dynamic effects.

   • Color correction and lighting adjustment for a consistent visual tone.

3. Simplified Workflows

   • Reduce time spent on manual splicing, sorting scenes, or color grading.

   • Integrate with other LYPS AI modules—such as Text-to-Speech for voiceovers or Content Transformation & Remixing for adding overlays.

4. Customization Options

   • Fine-tune scene boundaries, transitions, and visual filters.

   • Ability to override AI suggestions when creative control is needed.

How It Works

1. Asset Upload

   • Upload your initial video files, image sequences, or even short audio tracks via the /video/upload endpoint.

   • Blockchain validation handles licensing and usage rights for your content.

2. Analysis & Suggestion Generation

   • The system runs an AI analysis on your uploaded media—detecting scenes, potential transitions, and recommended color corrections.

   • Suggestions are stored and can be viewed or edited via the dashboard or the /video/edit endpoint.

3. Editing & Enhancement

   • You can manually accept or reject suggestions, add new transitions, adjust audio levels, or tweak color palettes.

   • If you choose to integrate Text-to-Speech tracks, the module can automatically sync voiceovers with the detected scenes.

4. Final Rendering & Export

   • Once the final sequence is approved, a rendering process compiles all scenes, transitions, captions, and overlays into a complete video file.

   • Export options include various resolutions (720p, 1080p, 4K), frame rates, or file formats (.mp4, .mov, .webm, etc.).

Usage Example

Below is a simplified REST API flow for video creation and editing:

1. Upload Raw Footage:

   bashCopy CodePOST /video/upload  
   Content-Type: multipart/form-data  
   
   {  
     "file": "path/to/your/video.mp4",  
     "metadata": {  
       "title": "My Raw Video",  
       "description": "Raw travel footage from my phone."  
     }  
   }  

   • Response returns a videoId that represents the uploaded content in the system.

2. Get AI Editing Suggestions:

   CodeGET /video/edit?videoId=VIDEO_ID  

   • Response might include suggested scene boundaries, recommended transitions, or color adjustments.

3. Apply or Adjust Suggestions:

   POST /video/edit  
   Content-Type: application/json  
   
   {  
     "videoId": "VIDEO_ID",  
     "edits": [  
       {  
         "sceneStart": 0.0,  
         "sceneEnd": 10.0,  
         "transition": "fade",  
         "colorCorrection": "auto"  
       },  
       {  
         "sceneStart": 10.1,  
         "sceneEnd": 25.0,  
         "transition": "cut",  
         "colorCorrection": "warmFilter"  
       }  
     ]  
   }  

4. Render & Export:

   CodePOST /video/render  
   Content-Type: application/json  
   
   {  
     "videoId": "VIDEO_ID",  
     "resolution": "1080p",  
     "format": "mp4"  
   }  

   • The final rendered file is made available for download or direct publishing within your LYPS AI workspace.

Common Use Cases

1. Marketing & Advertising

   • Quickly produce high-quality promotional clips with consistent branding and frequent call-to-action overlays.

   • Integrate with voiceovers from the AI-Generated Audio module for localized ads in multiple languages.

2. Social Media Content

   • Rapidly generate short, attention-grabbing reels or highlight videos.

   • Benefit from scene clustering to identify and showcase the most engaging parts of your footage.

3. Educational Videos & Tutorials

   • Automate the post-production process for your lectures or how-to guides.

   • Blend in subtitles or real-time captions for improved accessibility.

4. E-Learning & Course Creation

   • AI-driven scene segmentation helps break down long lectures into bite-sized segments.

   • Seamlessly incorporate charts, images, or animations for more engaging content.

Best Practices

• Provide High-Quality Source Material: The better the input footage, the more accurate the AI suggestions for scene detection and color correction.

• Combine with Other Modules: Use the AI-Generated Audio module for professional voiceovers. Leverage the Automated Captioning module to add subtitles in multiple languages.

• Review AI Suggestions: Although AI can speed up editing, you may need to confirm or manually tweak suggestions for unique creative outcomes.

• Set Clear Goals: Specify the mood, branding style, or color palette you’d prefer so the AI’s editing suggestions align better with your vision.

Monitoring & Token Costs

• Compute Resources: More complex edits (multiple scene transitions, color filters, high resolutions) require more computational power.

• Token Fees: You may owe additional LYPS token fees for advanced features or large-scale rendering projects.

• Usage Analytics: Track project timelines, error logs, and final render sizes in the LYPS AI dashboard to optimize future edits and budget effectively.

Getting Started

1. Upload Your Footage: Provide raw videos or image sequences to the /video/upload endpoint.

2. Review Suggestions: Watch how the AI breaks down your content and proposes improvements.

3. Edit & Enhance: Use the provided APIs or your LYPS AI dashboard to refine transitions, color grading, or voice overlays.

4. Render & Share: Export your final product in the format you need and distribute it on social media, your website, or e-learning platforms.
