# THE PROBLEM

The creative director asks for "wide shots with water at golden hour." You shot 3 locations over 2 days, and every file is named something like A027_C003_0915RT.braw. The filenames tell you nothing about what's in the clip.

You know you captured exactly what they're asking for. You remember being at the waterfront around sunset on day one. But which card was it on? Which of the 40 clips from that location matches? You're back to scrubbing through thumbnails and scanning footage at 8x, trying to spot water and warm light.

This is routine B-roll retrieval, and it shouldn't require you to re-watch a shoot. You need to describe what you're looking for and get back what matches.

# HOW YOU SOLVE IT WITH WIDEFRAME

01

Describe the shot in plain language

Type what you're looking for the way you'd describe it to a colleague: "wide shots with water at golden hour." Wideframe searches based on visual content, not filenames.

02

Browse visual matches

Wideframe returns clips that match your description, ranked by relevance. You see the actual frames rather than just file names, so you can evaluate shots without opening each one.

03

Refine or pull selects

Narrow your search if needed ("water at golden hour, no people") or pull matching clips directly into your project. What took 30 minutes of scrubbing is done before you finish your coffee.
