Rawi brings Arabic-first editing tools into After Effects
Rawi is an After Effects extension that presents Arabic captions, automatic edits, faceless scenes, and motion graphics as editable timeline layers.
- For
- Arabic-speaking After Effects video editors
- Worth noticing
- Iraqi-dialect transcription is described as running on-device; the page says Mac captions and automatic editing are still forthcoming.
Field notes
The described workflow inserts each motion component as a precomposition, with settings for text, color, and movement available from its timeline layer. The page lists a 7.0 MB Windows installer and says installation needs no administrator permissions; it also warns that the installer is not signed and tells users how to bypass Windows’ protection prompt. A Mac version is offered, but the page says captions and automatic editing are not yet included there.
