Real footage, cut to your words

Your script is already a film.

Heydit finds the footage, records the narration, cuts the timeline and writes the score. You direct.

Made with Heydit.

Documentaries, explainers, recaps. A real case, the people running tech, the movie everyone is talking about. Whatever the story is, it gets the film it needs.

Bring the words. We’ll bring everything else.

01
Write it
A script, a paragraph, or one line. Or bring a movie and let Heydit write the recap.
02
Watch it assemble
Narration recorded. Footage found for every line. The timeline cut to the word. A score made for your subject.
03
Take the chair
Swap a shot. Change the look. Fix a caption. Then export, ready to post.

Every word is a cut.

Heydit cuts the picture to the narration, word by word. Keep scrolling. Right now, you’re the editor.

July 16, 1969. The Saturn V stands on the pad. Thirty-six storeys of rocket, fuelled and waiting. At ignition, five engines wake at once. The tower disappears in fire. It climbs slowly, then all at once. Four days later, a man steps onto the Moon. Millions watch it live.

Real footage. Not generated.

Our sourcing engine reads your script scene by scene and finds the footage that belongs to it. The real place, the real moment, cleared for use. Bring your own film and Heydit works from that instead.

A film about Apollo gets Apollo. Not a stock shot of a night sky.

The whole crew, on your script.

Nothing is final. Every shot, every grade, every caption and every note of music is yours to change.

01
Swap any shot
Pick from the shots we found and didn’t use, your own uploads, or a file on your computer. The film keeps its timing.
02
Change the look
One grade across the whole film, or a different one for a single stretch of it.
03
Make the captions yours
Choose how they look, fix any word, and see it on the picture as you type.
04
Set the music
Keep the score made for your film, bring your own track, or bring it down under the voice.
