AI video logging that labels your clips by wedding moment

What logging means in a wedding edit

Logging is the old assistant-editor job: watch each clip, note what is in it and tag the scene, so the editor can find the kiss without scrubbing through two hours of ceremony. On a wedding it rarely happens. Nobody has time to watch a full day twice, so culling in video editing turns into scanning thumbnails late at night and hoping.

That is what AI video logging software is for. With AI footage logging the watching is done when you open the project, and your job becomes checking the log, not writing it.

A moment label and a sentence on every sorted clip

Every main camera clip under your length limit gets the moment it belongs to: prep, first look, ceremony, portraits, reception, speeches, dancing, details or establishing, with finer sub-moments when you choose them. Each moment carries its own color onto your timeline in Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, and Final Cut Pro can color each part of the day by role, so the day reads at a glance.

Each card in the clip grid also carries a one-line description of what is in the shot. Find Moments looks inside clips for key moments such as the kiss, the ring and the first dance entrance, and lists where each one starts.

AI video logging software that knows who is getting married

Hailo works out who the two people getting married are and uses that to tell couple shots from guest shots across the whole day. It costs no tokens, and it errs on the side of caution: a silhouette, a back to the camera or a drone pass keeps the label it already had.

Where camera roles come up, they carry the couple's real names, so a camera reads On Cami, not bride or groom. That wording would be wrong at a wedding with two brides or two grooms, so Hailo does not use it anywhere.

Fix a label once and it stays fixed

Hailo will get some labels wrong. Click the moment badge, or right-click the card and choose Change moment, and pick the right one. One click commits it. The badge gains an outline so you can tell your corrections from Hailo's, and the timeline re-exports in the background, so your editor's next import already has the change.

Your correction survives every later pass, every re-run and a full re-analysis, including one you make mid-run. To see why a clip got its label, right-click it and open Why Hailo labeled this: the reason, how sure Hailo was, and where the shot might work. On a rehearsal dinner the picker offers that day's own set, as the multi-day page explains.

What gets logged, and what is left alone

Only folders labeled Main footage are watched clip by clip, which keeps the token quote to your highlight cameras. Long-form ceremony and toast takes, drone, action camera and audio folders skip it, and you set those labels when you drop the wedding folder. Nothing is renamed or moved: this is an AI video file organizer that leaves your files exactly where they are.

Long takes can still be named. Turn on long-take naming and Hailo looks at every long take as well, and the quote shows what that adds before you start. That option, and how the labels feed your selects, is on the selects page.
