== Overview ==
The ACT 3 AI **Video Editor** is the central workspace for refining, arranging, and finalizing your AI-generated video projects.
It combines script-based editing, scene arrangement, AI cinematography, and post-production tools, allowing creators to move from raw ideas to polished final output entirely within the platform.

== Key Benefits ==
1. Unified workspace for script, scenes, visuals, and audio.
2. Real-time preview of edits without long rendering waits.
3. AI-assisted adjustments for camera movement, lighting, and transitions.
4. Seamless integration with sets, digital actors, and imported media.
5. Export-ready for multiple platforms and professional formats.

== Video Editing Workflow ==
1. **Open Your Project**
Access the [[Editor|Editor]] from your project dashboard to begin editing.

2. **Load or Generate Scenes**
Import AI-generated scenes, B-roll, or external footage into the editing timeline.

3. **Arrange Scenes**
Drag and drop scenes into your desired order using the storyboard or timeline view.

4. **Edit Scripts & Dialogue**
Adjust scene scripts and actor lines directly in the editor, with AI suggestions for pacing and tone.

5. **Adjust Cinematography**
Modify camera angles, lens settings, motion paths, and framing for each shot.

6. **Apply Lighting & Style Presets**
Set mood and tone by applying [[Creating_Style_Presets|Style Presets]] or custom lighting setups.

7. **Add Media & Effects**
Insert imported B-roll, visual effects, sound effects, and background music.

8. **Review in Real-Time**
Use low-resolution preview rendering to check flow and visual consistency before the final export.

9. **Save Versions**
Keep multiple edit versions for experimentation or client review.

10. **Finalize & Export**
Send the completed timeline to the [[Build_Video|Build & Export]] process.

== Key Editor Features ==
1. **Storyboard View** – Visual scene arrangement for high-level editing.
2. **Timeline View** – Frame-by-frame precision control over visuals and audio.
3. **Multi-Layer Editing** – Combine video, audio, effects, and captions in separate layers.
4. **AI Scene Suggestions** – Get recommendations for transitions, pacing, and shot coverage.
5. **Hotkey Shortcuts** – Speed up your workflow with customizable keyboard controls.

== Best Practices ==
1. Lock completed scenes to prevent accidental changes.
2. Keep a backup version before making major structural edits.
3. Use markers in the timeline to flag important review points.
4. Apply style and lighting presets consistently for visual continuity.
