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 these 3 objects in the video dashboard along with other advanced capabilities.

Make sure you are in the right module based on your use case.
