Combine recordings into an independent video project

How the tool works

A recording keeps its individual edit. Joining it with another source creates a project with its own identity, so you can reuse a recording in several projects while preserving its individual edit. The script screen separates Recordings and Projects into tabs.

The Library gains a Projects view with names, thumbnails, durations, takes, sounds, and media sizes. Start a project from scratch, join recordings from different scripts, use dubbed versions, or import videos from Photos and Files in your chosen order. Imported sources are copied into the app; deleting a project keeps its source recordings.

Build it step by step

Decide the intended order before selecting sources. Open Library → Projects to start a project, or use Join recordings from a script with several recordings.

• Choose the recordings in the order the viewer should see them, rather than the order they were recorded.
• Add sources from other scripts when the explanation needs another scene or a different example.
• Review the project name and its first frame so you can recognize it later in the Library.
• Trim repeated context at each join and balance the audio between the recordings.
• Reopen the project from the Library to continue its saved edit without rebuilding the source list.

An example to adapt

Illustrative exercise: combine a problem statement from one script, a practical demonstration from another, and a closing recorded later. The project becomes a complete lesson even though its sources were created separately.

Keep the opening recording available for a shorter variation. Start another project with that same source and a different demonstration; the two assemblies can serve different audiences.

Check before finishing

Deleting a project preserves its source recordings, but deleting a recording removes its clips from projects that use it. These are different actions. Timeline assembly requires Starter or above; check the app for account access before starting a complex edit.
