Find shots
- Category: Middleware
What it is
Finds similar shots in the indexed footage by still frame or description, then imports them into the current sequence.
This node grew out of the related Lab tools: wires in a blueprint replace the step-by-step clicks in the Lab, which makes it easy to reuse and to hand to an agent.
