GMU:Procedural Cut/Assignment Sequence

Let's get started with python and ffmpeg

1. Pick and download a video with a lot of edits. New coverage is good.
2. use the PySceneDetect tool (link on main page) to detect the scenes and extract them. (You need to install Python) scenedetect -i goldeneye.mp4 -o output_dir detect-content -t 27 list-scenes split-video
3. reattach the clips in a different order with ffmpeg ffmpeg -i "concat:part3.mp4|part1.mp4|part2.mp4" -c copy output.mp4

Bonus learn some python to further automate the process
