The frictionHow Focus helpsHow it worksFAQ

The friction

The right B-roll is often buried under generic filenames

Find supporting shots by visual meaning, scene, person, or object without hand-tagging every clip.

01

Commercial edits need precise cutaways, product angles, reactions, and location details.

02

Folder names rarely capture what is actually visible inside the shot.

03

Under deadline, teams reuse obvious footage because the better option is too slow to find.

How Focus helps

Make supporting footage searchable by content

Focus indexes visual and spoken context locally so editors can search for the exact support shot the sequence needs.

01

Search visual meaning

Find objects, actions, scenes, and mood cues across B-roll folders.

02

Combine speech and visuals

Pair a spoken beat with matching cutaways, reactions, or product shots.

03

Save reusable selects

Keep verified B-roll moments ready for handoff and reuse.

Manual B-roll browsing vs searchable B-roll

Focus B-roll search

Focus
  • Search by what appears in the shot.
  • Verify the source moment.
  • Export selected support clips.

Manual browsing

  • Depends on filenames and memory.
  • Misses strong hidden options.
  • Slows revisions and alternates.

How it works

02

Search the visual need

FAQ

FAQ

Do I need to tag every B-roll clip first?

No. Focus builds searchable context from the footage itself.

Can this help with client revision requests?

Yes. You can search specific visual alternates instead of browsing whole folders again.

Does this replace my media organization?

No. It adds a content search layer on top of your existing folders.

Stop donating nights to footage hunting.

Focus gives editors and wedding filmmakers faster retrieval, verified selects, and calmer delivery weeks.
