ClipsMagic for interviews

Shorts from interviews

In an interview, the short is usually the answer. ClipsMagic reads the whole conversation and picks the answers a stranger can follow: ones that restate the question, or that carry the question inside the cut. Each becomes a captioned 9:16 short, with the scores that explain why it was picked.

Our sample episode in the Boxed caption style.

Why do some great answers make bad shorts?

An answer like "Yes, and that was the year everything changed" needs the question before it. Cut alone, it is a stranger saying something vague. The stands-alone score catches this: an answer that leans on the question scores low unless the question is in the cut.

When you prepare an interview, ask guests to restate the question in their answer. It makes the answer clear to the audience in the room and gives you a short that opens cleanly.

Can I change where a short starts?

Each moment starts and ends on word boundaries in the transcript. To change one, you select words in the transcript: start one sentence earlier to bring the question in, or end before the interviewer replies.

Which caption style suits an interview?

Start with Boxed: sentence case on a dark box reads well over a busy set or a split screen. You can pick any of the four styles for each short.

What does a month of interviews cost?

Two 45-minute interviews a week is 9 interviews and about 6.8 hours of video in a month. Starter covers it, at $7.99 a month.
