for a demo, check out this one that I put together using 81 clips from a skydiving trip we took in Monterey, CA:

this seems rather basic. From watching a bit, it just seems to cut/combine the videos? No transitions, no bg music which would fit nicely with the cut timing etc.

I am waiting for a tool that does stuff along those lines for a long time. Apps like dji kinda do it but they have generic music and the cuts do not fit the tune at all, and are rather random. Doing it myself with little effort using davinci or premiere takes ~30 minutes but the results are 5 times better.

Was hoping that this app would do it for me. And even if it would, if it would cost >X$ to create a video like that, then probably I'd still do it myself.

Hey there, this is just the output from the Rough Cut tile. Right now each tile in Mosaic represents a modular and functional edit to the video. So after you've got your Rough Cut, given all your footage, there are other tiles which you can then use to add transitions, motion graphics, background music, etc.

That being said, the coolest part with this Rough Cut was that it decided to stand in the footage of the kite to creatively imply the freefall portion of the skydive (because we aren't able to record while we're jumping out of a plane). This ability for it to creatively decided to imply the jump because of the limited footage is what I wanted to get across here.
