[The Shorty team](https://shortyedit.com/about#editorial-team) · Updated 15 September 2026 ## Key takeaways - Create a separate source selection for each deliverable. - Keep your footage selection, approved copy and feedback together in your project notes. - Check for accidental carryover of another client’s logo, title, offer or footage. - Name the moment, say what should change and describe what you want to keep. ## Start with a clear direction Create a separate source selection for each deliverable.

Reuse a general process checklist but supply the actual brand, wording and reference for that client. Check for accidental carryover of another client’s logo, title, offer or footage. ## Check the detail that matters Check for accidental carryover of another client’s logo, title, offer or footage. ## Keep the next change focused Name the moment, say what should change and describe what you want to keep. For a title, supply the replacement words. For pacing, identify the shot that needs more or less time. Play the surrounding sequence after the revision to hear and see how the change fits. ## Keep the ideas coming ### Write a clear editing prompt Describe the source footage, audience, format, story order and constraints. Tell Shorty what must remain accurate, which shot should lead and what the viewer should understand at the end. A reference video is optional; a clear written brief can supply the direction. ### Refine your edit Shorty is an AI video editor you can revise by chat. Open an existing edit and describe the change in plain language, such as a new opening, different shot timing or corrected title text, or select an editable title or graphic in the preview and say what should change. Shorty renders a new version to compare with the previous cut. ### Find an example brief Explore this editing workflow in Shorty. ## Questions, answered. ### How do I apply this in Shorty?
