Abstract

Various embodiments described herein provide users with a fast and efficient way for identifying scenes for editing purposes. At least one embodiment is a method for editing video. The method comprises receiving a video with scenes to be edited, receiving a scene selection for editing, and partitioning the selected scene into subscenes based on the presence of subtitles, audio analysis, or a combination of both. The method further comprises identifying subscenes of interest, receiving editing commands for the subscenes of interest, and associating the editing commands with the video for future playback, wherein the video is left unmodified.
