Avid Showcases the Power of AI-Driven Capabilities in Media Composer to Enhance Creative Intelligence
August 31 2023 - 12:12PM
Building on more than a decade of providing artificial intelligence
(AI) capabilities in its video editing solutions,
Avid® (Nasdaq: AVID) today announced the next generation of
AI-driven capabilities in its powerful dialog search and sync
solutions Media Composer® PhraseFind AI™ and
ScriptSync AI®. Available as previews in the latest Media
Composer release, these capabilities boost the productivity of
editors and teams by eliminating mundane, repetitive procedures.
With access to advanced functionality and accelerated script-based
editing, creative people can stay focused on storytelling—saving
significant time and reducing cost.
PhraseFind AI: Enhanced transcription and rapid search
resultsNow equipped with modern transcription results,
rather than using phonetic searching, editors can use PhraseFind AI
to catalog volumes of dialog-driven media, substantially improving
search efficiency. Editors can effortlessly locate clips and begin
editing directly within the search results of the displayed
sentence and search word. PhraseFind AI also offers full text
results in search and will initially support 21 languages for
automatic language detection, eliminating limitations when working
with foreign languages.
ScriptSync AI: Effortless script creation and timesaving
automation With ScriptSync AI, editors now can save time
when creating scripts from clips and automatically align media with
text in the script window. For example, by eliminating
time-consuming manual sorting of dailies and aligning media with
the script text, this streamlined process expedites project
timelines and allows for smoother production workflows.
Filmmaker Doc Crotzer, ACE, whose credits
include Shotgun Wedding, Glee, and the
upcoming Road House, among many others, commented, “These new
tools have made something that is already an
indispensable part of my workflow more efficient and
effective, freeing me and my team to spend less time manually
scripting scenes and more time focused on the creative edit itself.
We just finished a project in which ScriptSync AI would've saved us
literally days. I can't wait to implement this in our day to
day."
“The continuing urgency to accelerate content production and
keep pace with rising demand presents the perfect opportunity to
harness the benefits of AI,” said Dave Colantuoni, Vice President
of Video Product Management, Avid. “With more powerful PhraseFind
AI and ScriptSync AI capabilities, the latest release of Media
Composer eliminates hours of manual work for editors, giving them
valuable time to instead focus on executing on their creative
concepts and bringing whole projects over the finish line.”
The new PhraseFind AI and ScriptSync AI features are available
as previews through the latest Media Composer release. Customers
are encouraged to share their experience and observations through a
new community forum designed to gather feedback on these AI-powered
tools.
Avid will demonstrate the latest Media Composer and provide a
sneak peek of other AI-powered capabilities at the IBC2023 Show in
Amsterdam, September 15-18, stand 7.A59. To plan your visit with
