Building an Agentic Video Editor for Mass Consumer (Ekaterina Deyneka (Reelful))
talk · Story page
Ekaterina Deyneka's talk frames a consumer video editor as an agentic app builder: footage and a line of direction go into a sandbox, an agent works with tools and skills, Remotion expresses the cut as React code, and a verification pass catches compositions that won't render.
In plain words
- Reelful built a video editor that turns raw footage and written directions into a finished video.
- The editor finds useful moments, cuts them together, then adds captions, music, voiceover, and extra footage.
- An artificial intelligence system follows saved editing rules for cuts, matching fonts, and when extra shots help the story.
- It assembles the video through code, then checks whether the final version can be produced successfully.
- People who record events but rarely post them could get polished videos from messy or incomplete footage.
