The Easy Guide: Edit Your Videos with Claude

Got lovely videos sitting on your phone that never get shared? This guide shows you how to turn them into finished, captioned videos without learning a single editing app.

You film on your phone. Then you tell Claude, an AI helper, what you want in plain English, like “cut out my ums and add big captions”. Claude does the editing for you.

What you get

• The Easy Guide: 25 pages, one step at a time, with big clear pictures. Plain English, no jargon. Print it and keep it by your computer.
• Reel Studio: my video editing kit for Claude. You download it once and Claude installs it for you.
• 17 ready-made looks and 45 effects and animations, from big captions to a little plane flying across a map.
• Help by email if you get stuck. I answer every email myself.

What it does for you

• Cuts out the long pauses and the bits where you lost your thread
• Keeps your best go when you said something twice
• Adds big captions, so people can follow without the sound on
• Cleans up background noise and echo
• Hands you a finished video, ready for Facebook or the family

What you’ll need

• A Windows computer or a Mac (not an iPad, I’m afraid)
• Your phone, to film
• About 20 GB of free space on your computer
• A Claude Pro plan. It’s about £18 a month, paid to Anthropic (the company behind Claude), not to me. You can cancel any time.

My promise

If you can’t get it working, email me within 7 days. I’ll help until it works. If it still won’t, I’ll refund you. No fuss.

Would you rather watch than read? Have a look at Watch & Follow. Would you rather I set it all up with you? Choose I’ll Do It For You.
