THE PANEL'S ANSWER
Guy CochranPANELIST

Guy plans to release his MCP (Model Context Protocol) setup for DaVinci Resolve video editing on GitHub for free. A simple prompt like 'here's my footage, what can you do with it?' can generate 2.5–5 minute supercuts at roughly $2 per video (consuming ~130,000 tokens per video on Claude's max plan), though this cost may increase as tokens become less subsidized.

Summarised by AI from what the panel said. Watch the moment for the full answer.

55:09OfficeHours.global.com. That's OfficeHours.global.com. Once again, OfficeHours.global.com. And that brings us to, oh, no, there's one more question. Okay, yes, here it is. Guy, go ahead. Yes, Guy Cochran. Well, let me read the question first. Okay, I jumped the gun. I pulled up Claude's DaVinci snapshots. Want to see it? Take it away, guy. Forge yours. Earlier I was talking about these little lower thirds where it took some pictures,

55:42and so I just wanted to cut over really quick and give you a little bit of the conversation. This is Claude desktop running on the PC. And so it ran. I said, okay, go ahead and proceed with a batch of 10. Ran five agencies, two tools, loaded tools. Ran five agents, four tools, loaded tools. use 32 tools. And as it's going through and looking like, here's the pictures that it was

56:03taking to see if there was a lower third and it did this all by itself. So it figured all that out. And so what's the result? Like actually first, here's the super coats that it chose. I did not choose these. Um, it said, Hey, I think a good topic would be growing a YouTube channel. Uh, PTZ cameras, ATEM tricks is your internet ready going multicam. So you're like, okay, guy,

56:24I came up with some interesting stuff. Well, this is what it actually did. I did not build any of this. This is pure. Yeah, this is pure. I did not make this background. I did not put that logo there. I did not put that title up. I did not put any of these subtitles here. I did not put any of these tracks, any of this audio.

56:42This is 100% built by Claude, and it is amazing. So the one on green screen. So here's one on green screen. And again, it's just like starts out with a title, old green screen in virtual sets and somebody's gonna say yeah that could look prettier i could do better yeah i'm all ears like let's let's make this thing cool because it i don't know what we're

57:04gonna do with these but they're just really neat and i'm just amazed that it's doing these by itself so you can see there's uh two three like this is really cool is that uh 10 10 or so cuts cuts per, and the subtitles though. I mean, it's all the words that they said. So it's every word that they said. And so I actually ran a test where I just did a private Facebook where I put up a

57:30post and then I said, export the SRT. And that's the other thing is it kicked out all the files. Like I didn't even export them. It exported them too. It does require some cleaning up though. though, because like Alex says here, he says like 24 to 70 or is a different one. It was one I had to I had to go in and clean up. It was this one, which which camera should I buy?

57:51So he said 24 to 70 lens or no, it was a glass one. Man, there's so much good content. Like all these are awesome. Like I was watching them and I'm addicted already. Like some of the stuff because it's it's it's a super cut. It's like a lot of action packed into two and a half minutes like this one's called streaming everywhere at once and tony he's on the panel and

58:12he's he's actually in this one so you it's it's just fascinating i i'll start putting them up as long as everything checks out everybody's cool with them then uh they're just they're neat they're really cool is this going to be accessible from our new website which is now being built uh we're figuring it out and we're it's kind of fly by night at the minute i would love to have

58:33like a little super cut section so that that would be a spot i just got to make sure it's okay with everybody make sure that everybody wants to opt out they don't want their image in there though we have an eject button and because i don't want to make a bunch of these and then somebody says oh no you shouldn't do it that way don't have me saying anything stupid and outdated right

58:49and we'll be just fine all right let me put that in the prompt yeah right peter asks uh how much would someone pay for ai have to get that done Guy, do you have any sense of what that cost? Well, that's the thing is I want to put all this just up for free on a GitHub. So as I learn this stuff, I'm going to put it up into a place for us just for now.
