How do I edit a customer testimonial video quickly?

Upload the interview to FlashCut. It transcribes and labels speakers, then proposes several narratives built around different angles, each at 90, 60 and 30 seconds. Assemble the one you want, refine it by chat or transcript, and export an MP4 or hand it to your editor.

Can I get several testimonial videos from one customer interview?

Yes. FlashCut proposes several narratives from the same interview, such as the problem, the result and how the customer felt. Each is a separate storyline with its own soundbites, available at 90, 60 and 30 seconds, so one interview supplies a case-study cut, an ad and a social version.

Can I finish a testimonial in Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro?

Yes. Export Premiere Pro XML or FCPXML and import it into your editor. Both reference your original footage, so the hand-off takes seconds. Add branding, music and color there; your editor may ask you to relink media on first open.

Editing customer testimonial videos with AI: several angles from one interview

Q: How can a client approve a testimonial video?

On the Pro and Studio plans, share the narrative board through a password-protected link. The client reacts to individual soundbites with notes and hearts the narrative they prefer. Their reactions appear on your board as they arrive, so you assemble the approved story.

FlashCut turns a recorded customer interview into several testimonial cuts, each built around a different angle such as the problem, the result or how the customer felt. It transcribes and labels speakers, proposes narratives at 90, 60 and 30 seconds, lets the client approve through a password-protected review link, and exports MP4, Premiere Pro XML or FCPXML.

Why testimonial interviews take longer than they should

A customer interview for a case study usually runs 30 to 60 minutes. The usable material is a handful of lines: the problem they had, what changed, a number they are proud of, and a moment where they sound like they mean it. Finding those lines means rewatching the whole interview and noting timestamps.

Then the deliverables multiply. Marketing wants a 90-second case-study video, a 30-second ad, and a cut for the sales team that leads with the result. Each one starts a new search through the same footage, and each round of client feedback sends you back again.

Several angles from one customer interview

FlashCut proposes several narratives from the same interview. A narrative is a storyline built from soundbites that belong together, so one interview can yield distinct testimonials rather than one edit and its trims. Typical angles that come out of a customer interview:

The problem: what was broken before, in the customer’s words.
The result: what changed, with the concrete outcome they describe.
The emotion: the moment the customer explains why it mattered to them or their team.
The recommendation: who they would tell about it and why.

A workflow from interview to approved testimonial

Upload the interview and any cutaways from the shoot. FlashCut transcribes every word, labels the interviewer and the customer, and sorts the interview to A-roll and cutaways to B-roll.
Search for the lines you know you need, such as a product name or a result, and jump straight to them.
Choose Get Narratives. FlashCut returns several storylines from the interview, each at 90, 60 and 30 seconds.
Share the narratives with your client through a password-protected link. They like or pass on individual soundbites with a note and heart the narrative they prefer.
Assemble the narrative the client chose into a cut, then refine it by chat or in the transcript.
Export a rendered MP4 and an SRT caption file, or Premiere Pro XML or FCPXML to finish branding and sound in your editor.

Client approval without a feedback spreadsheet

Approval is where testimonial projects stall. A client watching a single cut can only say yes or no; showing them several angles at once lets them choose the story before you polish it. On the Pro and Studio plans you share the narrative board with a password-protected link. The client enters their name, reacts to individual soundbites with notes, and hearts the narrative they want. Their reactions appear on your board as they arrive, attached to the footage they refer to, so there is no list of timestamps to reconcile.

Who it suits

In-house marketing teams producing case-study and testimonial videos from customer interviews.
Agencies that show clients several story options before committing to an edit.
Customer marketing and sales enablement teams that need the same interview at several lengths.

Where FlashCut fits and where it doesn’t

FlashCut fits testimonials where the customer’s own words carry the video. Narratives are built from what people say, so a sit-down interview, a recorded call on camera, or a short on-site conversation all work well.

It does not replace the finishing pass. Logos, lower-thirds, music and color still happen in Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro after export. Testimonials built mostly from product shots or b-roll set to music, with little speech, are a weak fit, since there is no conversation for FlashCut to build a story from. FlashCut does not export to Avid or DaVinci Resolve today.
