Opus Clip: The NEW ClipAnything Feaure Speeds Up Your Workflow!
Howto & Style
Introduction
Hello everyone! It’s Juel Talentino from Estino Media. In this article, I want to dive into a new feature called "ClipAnything" released by Opus Clip, which promises to revolutionize your video clipping process.
What is Opus Clip?
Opus Clip is an AI-driven software designed to transform long-form videos into engaging vertical clips, perfect for platforms like YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and Facebook Stories. The tool allows users to add text, branding, transitions, and b-roll footage to enhance content.
The New ClipAnything Feature
Previously, Opus Clip primarily worked well with “talking head” formats, such as podcasts and interviews. However, with the introduction of ClipAnything, it now supports a wider range of video types, including vlogs and gaming videos, which often feature more movement and dynamic content.
This new feature employs multimodal AI technology that assesses visual, audio, and sentiment cues to identify and clip moments from any video. As the feature is still in beta, it’s currently free to use, allowing users to explore its capabilities without affecting their credit use.
How to Use ClipAnything
To use ClipAnything, you simply paste the link to your video, select your desired clip length (options range from less than 30 seconds to less than 90 seconds), and choose a genre for better AI detection. There's also an option for including specific moments by providing prompts like “compile all the hilarious moments” or “find the action-packed sequences.”
I decided to test this feature on a vlog featuring my experiences with the Turo app, where we rented a Corvette. After entering the necessary details, I initiated the clipping process. The feedback indicated that the processing might take longer due to the beta status, and indeed, it took around 30 minutes.
Once complete, ClipAnything produced six clips, showcasing the highlights of the video through scene analysis. Although the clips were a good starting point, they required further editing for better cohesiveness and engagement.
I found that being more specific with prompts could yield better results. For instance, I realized that requesting clips featuring the 'Corvette' specifically could refine the outputs further.
Conclusion
Overall, ClipAnything is an exciting step forward for Opus Clip and content creators eager for new tools to enhance their workflows. While still in development, its potential is promising, and I look forward to seeing how the feature will evolve. If you're new to Opus Clip or interested in trying the ClipAnything feature, now is a great time to take advantage of the free beta trial!
Thank you for reading, and I encourage you to explore this innovative tool for your content strategy.
