01 / Listen widely
Detect strong moments
Review the episode for concise insights, surprising exchanges, and stories with a clear turn rather than relying on isolated keywords or volume alone.
- Keep enough setup for a viewer joining mid-conversation.
- Favor moments with a clear idea and satisfying endpoint.
- Present candidates for the creator to approve.
02 / Shape the cut
Build platform-ready cuts
Reframe the chosen exchange for vertical viewing, tighten distractions, and preserve speaker changes so the short remains easy to follow.
03 / Give notes
Refine with words
Ask to start one sentence later, keep a reaction, slow a transition, or try another ending, then review the resulting cut against the original conversation.
