Collect
Bring together the recordings, music, stems, lyrics, artwork, photographs and notes for one video.
How it works
From a folder of media to a finished video.
Automation does not press one magic button and make a good film. It helps with a series of clear jobs, while a person chooses what feels right.
The production path
Five passes keep the work understandable.
Doing one kind of job at a time makes mistakes easier to spot and creative decisions easier to approve.
Organise
Use predictable folders and filenames so Resolve and the assistant can find everything again.
Assemble
Synchronise sound and picture, build the timeline and remove obvious mistakes or dead space.
Shape
Add the correct project bundle, motion, titles, captions, sound treatment and deliberate pacing.
Check
Watch the result, repair problems and export the full video plus any approved short versions.
What a skill means
A skill is a reusable set of instructions.
It tells the AI assistant how to complete one kind of task in the same careful order each time.
Project setup
Create bins, timelines, frame rates, audio tracks, naming rules and export folders.
Assembly edit
Synchronise media, follow an edit map, place selections and leave clear markers for review.
Motion graphics
Build titles, transitions, visualisers, callouts and reusable Fusion compositions.
Captions and exports
Prepare readable captions and consistent widescreen, vertical and square versions.
A
Astra MCP
The planned control bridge.
Astra MCP is intended to let the AI assistant perform supported actions inside DaVinci Resolve on the editing computer. The exact controls must be tested on that computer before they are treated as reliable.
- Start with a disposable test project.
- Confirm what Astra can read and change.
- Keep automatic work reversible.
- Stop for approval at the style frame and final review.
B
Asset bundles
The box of reusable ingredients.
An asset bundle holds the visible and audible identity for one project. It can include logos, type styles, colours, lower thirds, transitions, characters, sound stings, backgrounds and export layouts.
- Shared automation handles the repetitive editing work.
- The selected bundle controls the creative identity.
- Unapproved or unfinished assets remain clearly marked.
- A change to one project does not silently alter another project.
C
Human review
The person still makes the film.
The assistant can organise, assemble, suggest and repeat. It cannot know whether a performance feels honest, whether a joke lands, or whether a visual choice belongs in the final work until a human reviews it.
- Approve one representative style frame before a full batch.
- Review captions against the actual audio.
- Check every export from beginning to end.
- Keep the editable Resolve project, not only the final video.
