Video Editing

Turn raw footage into finished content. Essential skill for YouTube, Podcasts, and any video-first Marketing.

ScreenFlow

Mac-only screen recording and editing. Great for tutorials and walkthroughs. Simpler than Premiere, more capable than QuickTime.

Descript

Edit video by editing text. Transcribes automatically, then you cut by deleting words. Game-changer for Podcasts and talking-head content.

• Underlord — AI features for automatic editing
• Filler word removal — Not all "likes" and "ums" are equal. A framework for knowing when to cut and when to keep.
• How to blur a region — Right-click, add effect, draw the mask
• Captions border — Add margin so captions don't overlap important visuals

Pairs with video repurposing workflows for turning long recordings into multiple content pieces.
