Imagine you are in the middle of editing a Hollywood film and realize you have the actor in the wrong jacket in post. Instead of trying to do a re-shoot, which may cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, can we use AI to fix in post?
This talk demonstrates a practical workflow for production-quality video editing using open-source AI models for video editing. The workflow combines masked region editing, pose guidance, and LoRA fine-tuning to achieve Hollywood-grade results.
