Edit videos with Claude and HyperFrames using plain editing terms
Jake Moran shows how to prompt Claude and HyperFrames for rough cuts, hooks, B-roll, a 3-screenshot launch video and style copying, using the right editing terms and as much context as possible.

Here is my raw recording. Do a rough cut: remove filler words and ums, cut pauses to a quarter of a second or less, drop repeated words and retakes, and use punch-ins to hide jump cuts. Add a zoom-in hook at the start and keep any music at 10% of my voice volume.
Visual breakdown
Jake Moran of HyperFrames shows that AI video editing works best when you use real editing terms and give the agent as much context as possible: a rough cut to remove filler, pauses and retakes, hooks with zooms and B-roll, and launch videos built from just three screenshots and a loose storyline.
The problem: Video editing is a wide field with its own jargon, and without the right words (and good timestamps) the AI cuts badly or wastes tokens.
From raw footage to a finished video

Editing terms worth knowing
- Rough cut: remove mistakes and get back to the storyline
- Jump cut and punch-in: cut repeats, then zoom to hide the jump
- Hook: zoom-ins, B-roll and speaker cards at the start
- Launch video in four parts: hook, context, payoff, brand

Try it yourself
Use HyperFrames (its desktop app, or its repo with any agent) and describe the edit in plain terms.
- Give the agent your raw footage plus as much context as you can: screenshots, a blog link, brand kit
- Ask for a rough cut: remove ums, cut pauses to a quarter second or less, drop repeats and retakes
- Ask for a hook: zoom-in, B-roll, speaker card, and name a few transitions, then let Claude pick
- Add music and say to keep it at about 10% of your A-roll volume
- Ask for a storyboard first and approve the still frames before the full build
- Leave notes on the video itself, then send the queued edits
Once a workflow works, ask the agent to save the steps as a skill so you don't repeat the work.
Tips from the conversation
- Use terms both you and the model recognize, which gets results faster and saves tokens.
- Models can't hear audio, so state music volume explicitly.
- Bad timestamps cut words in half; a good local transcription model fixes that.
- You still need your own idea and rough storyline; the AI fills in many choices itself.
- For long videos, split into segments and stitch them to avoid reprocessing everything.
