Producing Video
The edit bay. Raw recordings and podcast appearances come in, tight graded cuts with transcripts go out, staged and ready to clip, with a consistent look across everything.
Your Righthand runs the video pipeline so a recording never sits raw. Every Monday it picks up everything new since the last sweep, tightens it, grades it in your chosen look, lays b-roll where a claim needs a receipt, and stages the cut plus its transcript for clipping. It also books and preps your podcast and speaking appearances, because those are where the best recordings come from.
What's in the pack.
3 skills, installed together — your Righthand arrives already equipped for the job.
- Video Editing
Cut Video
Tightens a long-form video recording aggressively — removes silences, filler words, hedges, false starts, and full-line retakes while preserving laughs and comedic pauses. Cuts are driven by Montreal Forced Aligner (MFA) word boundaries (auto-installs on first run), not raw Whisper timestamps, then ground-truthed with isolated-window re-transcription before rendering. Use when the user provides a video and asks to cut it, tighten it, remove silences, strip ums, clean it up, or make it shorter without losing the good parts. Outputs a cleaned MP4; does not add zooms, captions, b-roll, or upload anywhere.
- Video Editing
Color Correct
Grade a video file with the Righthand acting as the colorist — it extracts frames and looks at them, diagnoses casts/exposure/saturation, authors a readable ffmpeg grade, previews side-by-side, iterates, and renders non-destructively. Ships nine named looks (Golden Hour, Honey, Linen, Super 8, Oat Milk, Espresso, Velvet, Popsicle, Terracotta) reverse-engineered from creators with great color, each also available as a .cube LUT. Use when the user says "color correct this", "make this look good", "apply Oat Milk to this clip", "show me all the looks on this video", or "make my footage look like [creator]" (Steal mode fits a new look from a reference channel). Always starts by showing a menu — a contact sheet of all nine looks rendered on the user's own footage — before applying anything; a requested look or AI recommendation is marked on the sheet for confirmation.
- Video Editing
B-Roll Finder
Sources and places b-roll for a video edit: classifies each moment of a talking-head transcript, scopes the search to trusted/authoritative sources, returns vetted candidates, and places clips anchored on the spoken word. Use when the user says "find b-roll", "source clips for this edit", or wants footage, receipts (tweets/headlines), screenshots, or motion graphics to lay over a talking-head video. Covers taste-profile onboarding, candidate scoring, sub-pixel Ken Burns for stills, and full cutaway rendering with self-verification.
