Descript for video

Descript has launched their new video editor. This is another DT-favorite: Descript originally built an app that lets you edit the transcribed text of an audio file and reflects those changes back into the audio (see DT #18), followed by a version of the product optimized for podcast editing (#24). The newest release turns the app into a fully-fledged video editor, including support for Descript’s core transcript-based editing feature: it can delete sections, auto-remove “uhm"s, and even generate new audio (in the speaker’s voice!) for small corrections. And it comes with a great launch video (by Sandwich, of course).
