The Highlight Studio is your dedicated editing workspace, giving you the tools to customize, fine-tune, and arrange highlight clips into the perfect highlight reel.
Before heading into the Highlight Studio, you need to create a highlight reel. This can be done using one of the following methods:
Use Highlight Studio
Whether you create your highlight reel manually or use AI Highlights, your highlight reels are edited, viewed, and downloaded via the highlight studio.
In the highlight studio, you can:
Add more highlights.
Filter and search highlights.
Edit the length of a highlight.
View a list of the highlights as well as information about each highlight.
Download your highlight reel.
Present the highlight reel using either 'Story View' or 'Present'.*
Add notes to a highlight.
View the added notes.
Use the video player controls.
* 'Story View' is only available for highlight reels created using AI Highlights & Stories. 'Present' is only available for highlight reels consisting only of manually created highlights.
Adjust the Clip Status
Using the status menu is a great way to keep track of clips you want to edit, are in the process of editing, or have already edited.
Click the small circle in the bottom-right corner of a highlight tile, then select the status you want to apply.
Filter the Highlights
The highlights can be filtered by either status or action.
To filter your highlights:
Click the three-lined filter icon.
Select your filter.
To remove the filter, simply repeat the process.
Searching for Highlights

To duplicate a highlight:
Click '︙' located in the top right of the highlight tile.
Click 'Duplicate'.
Copy a Highlight to Another Highlight Reel
