Cut Wizard

Catch the cut that fails spec before the client does.

Point the Cut Wizard at a deliverable and it checks it against its destination: aspect ratio, duration, bitrate, safe zones and loudness. It flags what will fail on Reels, on a broadcast slot or on a client's screen while there is still time to fix it, and can draft the captions too.

Every deliverable checked against its destination

Without it

The 2am realisation that the master is the wrong aspect ratio, or the caption sits under the platform UI, after the client has already seen it.

With ShootFlow

Every cut checked against the spec of where it is going, with each problem flagged before delivery. No nasty surprises on the client's screen.

How it works

Cut Wizard, step by step.

01

Pick the destination

Tell the Cut Wizard where the deliverable is going: a 9:16 Reel, a broadcast slot, a client review. It knows what each one demands.

02

It checks the spec

It measures aspect ratio, duration, bitrate, safe zones and loudness against that destination and marks each as a pass or a warning.

03

Fix before you deliver

Every problem is flagged while there is still time to fix it, and captions can be drafted so the cut goes out complete.

Questions producers ask

How do I check a video meets platform spec?

Point the Cut Wizard at the deliverable and choose its destination. It checks aspect ratio, duration, bitrate, safe zones and loudness against that platform and flags anything that will fail, before the client sees it.

Which specs does it check?

Aspect ratio, duration, bitrate, safe zones and loudness, measured against the destination the deliverable is bound for.

Does it fix the problems for me?

It flags every issue so you can fix it in your edit, and it can draft captions for the cut. The Cut Wizard is the check that stops a bad deliverable going out, not the editor.

When in the process does it run?

Before delivery, on each deliverable, so problems are caught while there is still time to re-export rather than after the client has flagged them.
