I turned plain AI-generated pit lane footage into a glowing light-trail launch, and I never touched a single keyframe by hand.

Here's the whole process:

I generated 10 cinematic clips of a pit crew, a driver, and a race: walk-in, wheel change, headset on, cockpit, launch, overtake, final lap, finish line. I dropped them into invideo Editor and asked the timeline agent to build the full sequence, cuts, music, and sound. Then I described the effect I wanted: bright highlights stretching into directional light trails on the launch and final lap. The agent built it as a custom shader on the editable timeline. I tuned the [trail length, direction, threshold, and mix] until it felt right.

The agent handled the effect building. I directed it and decided how it should look. The whole project is a real timeline you can open and edit, linked below.

What should I build next? Tell me the effect you want to see.

invideo Editor is free to try.
