Has any successfully built a skill or uses an app that you can literally add in the raw footage, and it produces finished or nearly finished content that you can re-purpose for youtube, instagram, facebook etc? I need to take talking head raw footage and have a skill that can overlay it with captions, reformat it, pull the best bits for shorts etc.....?! Going round in circles. Tried chatgpt but half the time the videos are too big and it's sending me round the houses to compress them and then the quality is bad etc etc.....
