Automated video editing helps make your iPhone 3GS videos slick & watchable

You will shoot video with your iPhone 3Gs.  You know it is inevitable.  Some of it you will want to keep.  A smaller amount of the videos will actually be ones you want to refine and show to friends and relatives more extensively–for instance you shoot some video of your vacation and you want to make it endurable for consumption by your friends and family.

What do you do, if like most people, you don’t have the time or the willingness to learn video editing and don’t want to spend time singling out the highlights and cutting the rest and want to create a music soundtrack without having to synch the music to the video yourself?

The answer might be a program called ‘Reveal’ by Muvee.

Muvee has been around for almost 10 years (maybe longer, but I first learned about them around 2000), and does something better than any other company I know: it takes your raw video, detects faces and other key elements, and automatically edits your raw video into a finished video with edits automatically synched to the music you choose.

All you have to do is contained in four steps: feed in the raw video clips you want to create the edited video from; choose the style you want (based on the type of video you are creating and the mood you want to evoke); add the music (one or more common music files you want to use), and hit ‘create’.  Reveal does the rest.  You can output in a variety of file formats based on where you want to post the video and how you want to distribute it.

The program costs $99 direct from Muvee, and cheaper from Amazon and other online retailers.  As always, if you decide to buy, please do it through our site.  It costs you nothing extra and gives us more funds to keep the site going.  That may seem a lot of money to spend in the age of free iPhone apps, but I don’t know of any cheaper alternative that does what Reveal does in so easy a process and with as much automation and quality.

I’ve used older versions (formerly called “Autoproducer”) and can attest to its miraculous ability to take your intermittently interesting videos and make them much more watchable and compelling.

If you want to save your valuable time and create memories that you don’ t have to apologize for in advance, try Muvee’s Reveal.

Note: As with all the products we recommend, we have no commercial relationship with the company.
