What is behind the magic? This page is dedicated to revealing how the magic is accomplished, and how Magic Cut enables users to condense long and tedious content into an action-packed Hollywood-style movie.

Rectifying Poorly Shot Video Experiences

Have you ever experienced:

• boring home movies long on monotony, short on action
• shoddy camera work, unbalanced colors or poorly lit backgrounds
• countless hours in the cutting room trimming unwanted video content
• painful failures cutting frame-by-frame but never quite succeeding

How to Increase the Pace

Before Magic Cut begins amazing you, configure the following settings:

• New duration: Enter the preferred total duration of all the new clips after Magic Cut has been applied to the original video clip
• Scenes with zoom/pan/motion: Scenes' selection based on the degree of zooming, panning, and motion
• Scenes with people speaking: Scenes' selection based on the extent of dialogue
• Duration of scenes selected by Magic Cut: Divides and cuts up the original video into clips depending on your preferences for a longer or shorter clip duration

The Technology Behind the Magic

How does Magic Cut intuitively estimate which scenes are to be discarded and retained? How does it accomplish its magic? Magic Cut carefully selects key scenes by weighing the following factors hidden in video content:

• camera shots with zooming/panning
• peoples' faces and moving objects
• color histogram
• background dialogue

When combining these factors, Magic Cut automatically calculates and tallies each factor according to a preliminary set of parameters, and then generates the key scenes essential for your new movie according to your settings.
