Tools Used

Codex

OpenAI's cloud-based AI software engineering agent that can execute code, run tests, and handle complex multi-file tasks autonomously.

02Step-by-Step Guide
1

Upload Your Video File

Open a multimodal AI tool like Codex that accepts video files. Drag and drop your long-form video (e.g., a talk or webinar recording) into the interface.

2

Provide an Initial Prompt

Give a simple, direct instruction to the AI to begin the editing process.

Prompt:
Can you cut this video into five clips for social?
3

Refine the AI's Output

Provide follow-up feedback in the chat to adjust the generated clips. The author asked for the clips to be "horizontal, faster, and tighter."

4

Finalize and Export

Once the AI has generated clips that meet your needs, download them from the tool.

5

Add Finishing Touches

For a more polished look, import the clips into a video editor like CapCut to add music, captions, or other branding elements before publishing.
