Netflix is exploring the application of AI in video editing to streamline complex manual tasks for content creators. This involves developing models that allow for precise control over edits, preserve the integrity of original footage, and ensure natural visual continuity. Initial research focuses on layered editing (Vera) and physically plausible object removal (VOID), aiming to empower artists while maintaining creative intent. Vera, a layered video diffusion model, generates edits as separate layers to preserve original footage. VOID, a video inpainting model, performs physically plausible object removal and scene reconstruction.

Introduced Vera, a layered video diffusion model for content-preserving video editing, which generates edits as separate layers to preserve original footage. Developed a novel training dataset and a Mixture-of-Transformers (MoT) architecture for Vera. Also introduced VOID, a video inpainting model for physically plausible object removal and scene reconstruction.
