AI video editor FAQs
Learn how prompt-based video editing works and what you can create with MiniMax Design.
What is an AI video editor?
An AI video editor uses AI to help modify video footage. MiniMax Design turns natural-language instructions into edits such as trimming clips, adding subtitles, applying effects, and adjusting the frame.
Can I edit an existing video with AI?
Yes. Upload your video clips to MiniMax Design, choose a video model, describe what you want to change, and submit. Preview the result, then export your finished video.
Can I edit videos using text prompts?
Yes. Tell MiniMax Design which clip or moment to change and what to do. For example, ask it to shorten the opening or move a product close-up earlier. You give editing instructions in words.
Can I generate subtitles in different languages?
Yes. Generate multilingual subtitles in MiniMax Design, then use text prompts to refine caption wording, timing, and on-screen placement before exporting your video.
Can I add video effects and transitions with AI?
Yes. Request transitions, filters, stickers, or video effects in MiniMax Design. Specify the clip, where the effect should appear, and the visual style you want, then preview the result.
Can I resize videos for TikTok, Reels, or YouTube Shorts?
