Cut a dance video to the beat, with no copyrighted music

A dancer gives Kazi four takes of a Motion Party-style routine. cuttingfloor makes an original beat, cuts a new shot on every bar, slows into the big move and puts each move’s name on screen: a 23-second Short.

  1. Make these four takes into one dance video, cut to a beat. Don't use a real song, I'll get copyright struck.

    I’ll make you an original beat so there’s nothing to get struck, then cut your four takes to land on it, with zoom-ins, a slow-mo into the big move and a hold on your final pose.

    • Used cuttingfloor › media.import four takes
    • Used cuttingfloor › render.frames looked at every take
    • Used cuttingfloor › code.run made an original beat
    • Used cuttingfloor › media.analyze found the beats
    • Used cuttingfloor › edit.batch a cut on every bar, 7 shots
    • Used cuttingfloor › clip.set_speed slow-mo into the step-out
    • Used cuttingfloor › edit.batch zoom-ins, pose freeze
    • Used cuttingfloor › audio.set_master louder, peaks under −1 dB
    • Used cuttingfloor › render.frames checked every cut
    • Used cuttingfloor › export.video vertical, 0:23

    Your 23-second cut is ready: an original 104 BPM beat, a cut on every bar, a slow-mo into the step-out and a freeze on your final pose. Want the move names on screen?

  2. Put the move names on screen and make the ending pop.

    I’ll put each move’s name up as you hit it, big enough for Shorts, and turn your final pose into a flash.

    • Used cuttingfloor › create.motion animated end flash
    • Used cuttingfloor › edit.batch 6 move names and the flash
    • Used cuttingfloor › text.set bigger sign-off
    • Used cuttingfloor › render.frames checked the titles
    • Used cuttingfloor › export.video vertical, 0:23

    Done: every move’s name pops up as you do it, and the pose hits with a flash and a “MOTION PARTY” stamp. Want a loop-friendly ending too?

Shown in your agent: Claude, ChatGPT or Kazi. cuttingfloor does the editing and hands back the file; your agent shows it to you.

What the agent did

  1. Looked at all four takes to find each move.
  2. Made an original hip-hop beat from scratch, so there’s no copyright claim.
  3. Found the beats and cut to a new shot at the start of every bar.
  4. Zoomed in on three downbeats so the cuts hit harder.
  5. Sped through the drop, then went slow-mo into the step-out so it lands on the beat.
  6. Froze her final pose on the last hit.
  7. Turned the room sound down under the beat and kept her “Did I get it?” at the end.
  8. Put each move’s name on screen as she does it.
  9. Added a flash and a “MOTION PARTY” stamp on the final pose, and exported it vertical.
