AI Episode Maker

What happens inside one AI-made episode: units, redos, versions and the cut

Timeline term: compositing

Compositing, in these editors, means joining the finished units into one video file. It happens once the units are ready, and again when one of them changes. From 8 source pages, read 2026-09-25; no maker pays to be listed.

Fig. 1 Definition written for the register; editor wording quoted in the table.

Several editors stitch or assemble automatically; one runs the composite from the active version of every segment and can run it again after a change.

A composite that avoids re-encoding keeps the picture as generated; one that re-encodes may lose a little quality.

Recompositing after a change is cheap compared with regenerating, since no model is called: the joins are made again from units that already exist.

The composite is also where an episode's length is fixed, as the sum of the units it joins.

Inclusion rule. Editors whose logged statements use the term or its usual equivalent; one line each. Order. Alphabetical by tool name.

The take you keep becomes a Clip, and the kept Clips assemble into the Episode in order.
