ChaosCut Turns a Day’s Clips Into a Beat Map
An iPhone video editor that assembles photos and clips into vertical story reels whose cuts land on drum hits.
Field notes
The workflow uses capture dates to impose a chronological structure before the user chooses a track and lets the beat map determine available cut windows. A displayed example contains 40 cuts over 15.41 seconds. Manual editing remains constrained by those musical windows: boundaries snap to beats, while footage can be scrubbed within each window. The page also states that projects autosave and that analysis, cutting, and export run on the device, with no account, uploads, analytics, or network connections.
