Basics - Full Video, Moments, Trailer
There are 3 video objects in Parmonic - Full Video, Moments, Trailer.
Parmonic processes a full video to find and create moments. Moments are segments extracted from the full video. Each moment is an individual video and can be any desired length.
A Trailer in Parmonic is a single video made up of multiple, tiny segments/moments.
Here are suggestions on when to use each of these objects:
1) Full Video - when you want to take out a few things but keep most of the video intact.
Example - you have a 45-mins long video and want to remove the first few minutes and last few minutes.
2) Moments - when you want to break a long video into shorter, consumable segments.
Example - you have a 45-mins long video and want to turn it into 6 short moments.
Note - in some cases, you may want to split a video into chapters. This is more applicable to technical videos (How-to videos) and the use case becomes slicing of a long video instead of extracting short moments from a long video. Moments can act as chapters if you make them long and cover the entire video.
Note - Moments highlighted by our AI are typically a single block of text in the transcript but you have the ability to skip or add additional segments to a moment.
3) Trailer - when you want to create a single, short summary of the video.
Example - you have a 45-mins long video and want to create a 1-min trailer or a 5-min summary video.
For every video processed in Parmonic, you will see 3 tabs corresponding to each of these 3 objects.
Each tab has its own Review and Publish capabilities. While many of these capabilities are similar there are some subtle differences in the features. Make sure you are in the right tab based on your use case.
