Narrative Film Post-Production Assembly and Picture-Lock Editing

Apple ProRes DaVinci Resolve Adobe Premiere Pro Avid Media Composer
Developing practical solutions based on this demand…

Pain Points (Public)

Independent filmmakers often wrap production with heavy multi-track 4K ProRes rushes that are synced but unshaped, lacking a dedicated narrative editor to craft dramatic pacing, scene continuity, and subtext while keeping timelines clean for downstream sound and color conform.

Suggested Approach (Public)

A structured offline narrative editing workflow covering assembly, scene-by-scene dramatic pacing, and final picture lock, culminating in standardized EDL/XML/AAF project handoffs ready for color grading in DaVinci Resolve and final audio turnover.

Development brief PRO

Worth building?
Needs validation first
How to position
  • Acknowledge that narrative picture-locking is inherently a manual post-production creative service, and avoid forcing a generic automated SaaS model onto subjective storytelling decisions.
What to build first
  1. Build a local Python/FFmpeg timeline inspector that validates synced multi-track 4K ProRes asset naming, frame rate consistency (e.g. 23.976/24 fps), and audio scratch track alignment.
