Emotional: faces and reactions, not the décor.

The theme that favours people. Use it when the film should still work with the sound off.

Not for: Not a beauty filter, and not a face search. It is a way of cutting.

What it asks for

Emotional spends the song on faces, hands and the small reaction after a vow. Wide décor survives only if the song still has room.

Pacing

Holds longer than Energetic. A reception floor is usually the wrong place for it; an engagement, a vidaai or a nikah signing are the right ones.

When to pick it

Engagement teasers, the still centre of a church service, and any film the couple asked to feel quiet. Pair it with a song that can sit under faces without a four-on-the-floor beat.

After the cut

If the reel is all chandeliers, swap in faces from the bin. If skin tones drift between rooms, even them on the colour page; the cuts stay where they are.

Your footage stays on your computer

Editing, playback and export run on your computer, and your original footage and songs never leave it. To find moments, Auto-Edit shares low-quality copies of your clips, still frames and the speech, and the app asks once before anything is sent. The editor works worldwide, in English; credit packs are priced in Indian rupees.

Questions

Does it know who the people are?

Only if you turn on finding people, which is its own switch. Faces are detected on your computer, and a few face pictures are shared to ask you who is who. Either way, Auto-Edit asks who matters before it cuts.

Can I use it on a sangeet?

You can, though you will probably put the family dances back by hand. Energetic is the theme that already wants movement.

Does the theme change the colour?

No. It shapes the cut. Colour is on the colour page, including Auto Balance Colour for white balance.
