Eddie is designed to help you create amazing video edits quickly and easily, using natural language prompts. Here are some example prompts tailored for different situations to guide you through your editing journey:
A prompt is a specific instruction or request you give to Eddie, to guide the editing process. It’s essentially the command that tells Eddie what kind of edit you want for your video, such as “find the best soundbites,” “create a 2-minute highlight reel,”. The more precise your prompt, the better Eddie can tailor the edit to meet your needs.
