Short answer
How do you search wedding footage by speech?
Focus searches speech across wedding video files on local folders and drives. Index the footage, search transcripts for vows, toasts, names, or remembered phrases, verify the matching timestamp, then save the moment as a select or export it to Premiere, Resolve, or Final Cut.

Built for retrieval before the edit, not generic wedding videography advice.

03

The friction
Wedding edits often depend on one spoken moment.
Find vows, speeches, reactions, names, and spoken phrases across wedding footage, then jump to the exact timestamp and save the moment for the edit.
01
Vows, toasts, readings, and parent speeches can be spread across many camera files.
02
A couple's name, inside joke, or emotional phrase is hard to find from filenames.
03
Scrubbing full ceremony and reception footage slows down selects before the story is clear.
How Focus helps
Search the speech first, then verify the picture.
Focus turns local wedding footage into a searchable index, so editors can search spoken lines, names, and reactions before saving useful timestamps for the edit.
