This article is recommended for these people.

- Anyone creating content
AI Video-Editing Technique 1: Scene Search
Background
To make Episode 1 of Culinary Class Wars, the footage shot likely exceeded at least 1,000 hours. Finding and editing a specific scene within such long footage must have been truly painful.
Using AI video editingUsage
You can ask the AI to find a specific scene. For example, "Find the scene where the man wearing black glasses is chopping with a knife"—you could request something like that.
AI Video-Editing Technique 2: Short-Form Video Creation (+ teasers, highlights)
AI video editingUsage
Because it's possible to analyze the video and audio to find specific scenes, it's easy to create short-form videos.
In Culinary Class Wars, it could be used like this.
Prompt: "Gather the scenes where the man in the purple suit comments on how well the vegetables are cooked, and make a Shorts video!"
This is also possible.
Prompt: Gather the scenes where the man in the gray suit eats food while blindfolded, and make a Shorts video!
AI Video-Editing Technique 3: Subtitle Generation & Finding Lines
Background
The technology for AI to convert speech into text has reached an impressive level. It can convert over 1,000 hours of audio into fairly accurate text. It's great for producing subtitles and also makes it easy to find the scene where a specific line was spoken.
Using AI video editing
Netflix content is broadcast in over 100 countries. It's also possible to translate subtitles specialized for each country's language. You could generate Danish subtitles that incorporate comedic elements only people who have lived in Denmark for a long time would understand.
AI Video-Editing Technique 4: Set-Design Reference Search (Video Search)
Background
One of the things that became a hot topic was the incredible set design. I imagine the PDs and writers put their heart and soul into it, searching through many references.
Using AI video editing
After gathering countless videos, you can ask it to find references for a specific scene. For example, you could say, "Among Netflix original content, find only the scenes where the main character makes their entrance." You could call it a video version of Pinterest. It probably would have been a huge help to PDs who have to plan set designs.
AI Video-Editing Technique 5: Storyline Planning
Background
A cooking competition program isn't an entirely unprecedented format. Over nearly several decades, there have been several wildly successful cooking shows. You could analyze the key factors behind those successful programs and use them to plan a new program.
AI video editingUsage
First, you can get help finding out what cooking programs existed in the past.
"Tell me about cooking competition programs that were hits worldwide and their key storylines"
After finding a program you're interested in, you can also ask in more detail. Conversing with it as if you had an intern, you could have developed the storyline.
"Explain the storyline of Iron Chef in great detail"
AI Video-Editing Technique 6: Review Analysis
Background
Every week when a new episode comes out, tons of reviews about Culinary Class Wars pile up on YouTube and various communities. By reading the reviews, you can figure out which points viewers are excited about. That said, there might be so many reviews that they'd be hard to digest all at once.
Using AI video editing
After scraping the reviews, you can ask it to summarize the key content. Through this, you can get ideas for follow-up edits or marketing campaigns.
Limitations of AI Video-Editing Technology: Understanding the Context of a Video
There's something AI still isn't good at: grasping the context of a video. It can understand each individual scene, but it's not good at understanding the relationships between scenes. For example, it can find a scene where Chef Ahn Sung-jae is tasting food, but if you ask it to pull out a video where Chef Ahn Sung-jae looks satisfied after eating, there's a high chance it will struggle.
To sum up, you could have used prompts like these.
Scene search: "Find the scene where the man wearing black glasses is chopping with a knife"
Short-form video creation: "Gather the scenes where the man in the purple suit comments on how well the vegetables are cooked, and make a Shorts video"
Subtitle generation: "Translate the subtitles of Culinary Class Wars Episode 1 into the languages of 100 countries"
Set-design reference search: "Find 100 main-character entrance scenes worth referencing"
Storyline planning: "Organize the storylines of hit cooking competition programs"
Review analysis: "Summarize the reviews of Culinary Class Wars Episode 1"
