How to Use AI for Video Editing: Transforming Your Footage

The video production landscape is a shifting beast. The emergence of AI technologies has dramatically reshaped the field, opening up a world of possibilities for video editing. In this post, we're going to take a look at how you can leverage AI, particularly through the Adobe suite, to expand the borders of your video clips.

Step 1: Recording Your Clip FOR Ai video editinG


Begin by recording a clip on a sturdy tripod. This ensures your footage is stable and sharp. The solid base that a tripod provides makes it great for AI tweaks in the post-production stage. For better results, ensure that there is no shaking and camera movement. Additionally, avoid framing with movement at the borders of the clip. At Beereel Video Production in Brisbane, we never skimp on equipment, ensuring every video we capture is silky smooth, professional and high-quality.


 

Step 2: Creating Your Base Frame


Next, pull your clip into Adobe Premiere or After Effects, and plop it on the timeline. Following that, export the first frame of your clip as an image. This will act as the foundation for your AI adventures.

Step 3: Expanding Your Image Borders in Photoshop


Launch your exported image in Adobe Photoshop (beta).

Whip out the crop tool and expand your image's borders. This new space is where AI begins to weave its magic.

Step 4: Filling the Void


Now, grab the selection tool, and highlight the empty space you've just created with crop tool.


PRO TIP - You can also do this:

1. RIGHT CLICK the layer image

2. Choose SELECT PIXELS in the dropdown

3. CTRL+SHIFT+i to invert the selection.

Then, scoot over to the 'generative fill' function. Generative fill can be found in the top menu EDIT->Generative fill...

Here, you can either type in instructions for the AI or leave it empty to let it decide how to extend the image. Photoshop's AI will cleverly fill up the expanded areas of your image, blending it perfectly with your original frame.

BONUS STEP: GET CREATIVE

You can add whatever you imagine in your frames. Select the area you wish to edit with marquee tool (selection tool). For example, we are going to add an abandoned building into the image by typing it into the prompt box.

Step 5: Shifting Back to Your Video Editing Software


Once Photoshop has done its AI trick, import the image back into your Adobe Premiere or After Effects timeline.


 

Step 6: Lining Up and Masking


Now, line up the modified image with the first frame of your video. Then, mask out the original composition from the modified image. Adjust the masks' feather for smoother look.


Voila! Your expanded video frame is good to go!
