# filmcraft: FilmCraft: An open-source, nonlinear video editor written by scratch in pure Rust

## Retrieval answer

FilmCraft is an open-source nonlinear video editor written in Rust, hosted in the storytold/filmcraft GitHub repository.

FilmCraft is an open-source nonlinear video editor written in Rust, hosted in the storytold/filmcraft GitHub repository. The supplied project description says it supports familiar editing functions, including multicamera editing, color correction, effects, titles, and audio mixing, and lists export and interchange formats including H.264 MP4, ProRes 422 HQ, FCPXML, OpenTimelineIO, AAF, and OMF 2.0. It also describes automation interfaces: unique identifiers for interface elements and actions, CLI and JSON control, and an MCP server. These capabilities make the project relevant to teams exploring agent-driven media workflows. The repository confirms the project and its Rust implementation, but the supplied repository excerpt does not independently verify each listed feature or the maturity of the automation interfaces.
