About this service

In various sports, including skateboarding, a shortcut to improving your skills is to analyze your movements in detail by repeating or slowing down the playback speed of specific video parts. Also, you can crop peak moments of the video and post them on SNS. Simple as they may sound, there needed to be a better tool to do so.

Whythetrick's Video Cropper allows you to extract and download specified parts of videos with just a few clicks. In addition to specifying the playback range, you can also specify the playback speed so you can focus on analyzing the parts you want. Various file formats like MP4, AVI, and MOV are supported, so you can use the system widely regardless of device.

The video can be automatically converted into 3D animation by linking it with the Whythetrick Pose Estimation System.

How to use the system

Traditionally, cropping videos required expensive video editors or features in smartphones. Also, although there were free video players that allowed you to adjust the playback speed, they couldn't both adjust the playback speed and cut out the video. Whythetrick's video cropper lets you specify the video playback range and playback speed online. This service is free to meet the needs of all users.
1

Select a video

Open this Cropper in a browser on your PC, iOS, or other device, such as a smartphone or tablet. Select the file by clicking the Select button or by drag-and-drop. Please wait a moment for the system to analyze the video and generate the thumbnails at the bottom of the video. At this point, no communication with the server is occurring, and the length of the process will vary depending on your device's performance and the video's quality.

2

Specify the range you want to analyze

Move the control bars on both sides of the thumbnail group at the bottom of the video to select the area to be cropped. You can select the playback speed using the playback speed adjustment bar near the play button. Also, if you turn on the loop button, the video will play in a loop.

3

Start conversion function

The video data and edits will be sent to the server when you press the convert button. The server will take some time to edit the video and return the necessary information to your browser. Processing speed is affected by the length and capacity of the video.

Save a file

Once the system finishes converting the video, you can save the conversion result. Play it on your favorite player, publish it via SMS, and if you like it, please share Whythetrick with everyone around you!
