Question

Combining clips using Generative extend / AI

Hi,

Is there a way one can combine two clips to make them look seamless using generative extend or AI?

I need to clip a few dialogues from the original clip to make it shorter and end it with the closing dialogue.

I don't think so.. Your best bet would be a 4 to 8 frames Morph cut, but you said you already tried it.. I'm just replying cause I think that would make a great feature request, something reallyuseful for AI to make.

It could be called Generative Fill or something.. it would be really neat.. I hope it's in the pipelines..

If the camera is static on a tripod - why not use a standard Cross Dissolve? ..to avoid a jump cut.

Not clear if it is an interview but depending if you shot say in 4K and export on 1080 HD - you could zoom in on some shots to create a 'pseudo' B roll shot if the quality is good enough.

Other options/ideas  - use Transition Packs which create overlay on video tracks above across the cuts in the footage to mask an abrupt cut.

I've never seen a perfect 'pixel stitch' from one cut to another

Instead of that, you could cut to B-roll and then cut to the second clip.

What type of clips are they (an interview, etc.)?

This is what we are trying to do, its an ad. not an interview. Not exactly a B roll, its a single shot ad. Need a shorter runtime from the primary edit.

Not ... really. Although there is a tool to mush over cuts to remove a short bit, but that's pretty finicky to get a cut that blends right. I use it so rarely I forgot what they call it!
