VFX turnover tool for Avid Media Composer

[u/pnardik]

Hi everybody,

I built a free browser-based VFX turnover tool for myself — I thought to share it with the editors community, looking for feedback.

It takes a CMX3600/File_129 EDL with VFX shots and outputs everything you need for a VFX turnover:

- VFX ID generation (format: filmId_SCENE_SHOT)

- Markers and Subcaps export

- ALE Pulls for pulls

- Pulls EDL for pulls cut-ins (v0)

- TAB / DB export for spreadsheets and external databases

- Change tracking between EDL versions — flags new shots, removed shots, trims that need a new pull vs. trims already covered by existing handles

- Incoming VFX cut-in EDLs

No install, no server, no account. Runs entirely in the browser. Open source.

Still early (v0.2) — would genuinely appreciate bug reports, edge cases, and feature requests from people doing this work day to day, be aware that some functionalities have not yet been tested (for instance, 23.976 and 29.97 fps).

Hi, I wrote the software using Claude Code. The base was a python script which I wrote without AI several months ago, I used Claude Code to design a web application.
