LOCAL VIDEO WORKFLOW / SMART CUT

XPLA Smart Cut

A more usable workspace for checking local footage, making trial edits, and reviewing results by hand.

What problem it solves

When footage is scattered across folders, repeatedly opening, checking, and trial-cutting clips takes time. I want to make the preparation more orderly, leaving more attention for shot and pacing decisions.

How it works

Start with local footage you have the rights to use. Test the environment with a roughly ten-second clip, then organize footage, make trial cuts, and review the result by hand. Run a batch only after the test succeeds.

My work

I designed the entry point, first-run checks, and clear instructions for this editing workflow, then refine it with real footage.

Current status

The public download page lists both Mac and Windows installers as not yet available. The Windows version is in beta. This page shows the workflow and interface, not a promise that everyone can install it now or produce a delivery-ready video in one click.

Who it is for

Brands and content teams making product shorts with substantial owned footage, and teams interested in testing a real editing workflow.
