录口播最烦的不是背稿,是提词器跟不上你。 市面上的提词器基本都是匀速滚动——语速一变就脱节,要么你追着念,要么你干等它。 CueCam 口播相机换了个做法:它听你在说什么,稿子跟着你的嘴走。 ■ 跟读式提词 读到哪个字,高亮就到哪个字;读完一行,稿子往上滚一行。语速快慢、临时停顿都不用管。 念错字、吃字、加语气词也能兜住——同音字容错是专门为中文做的,"在/再""的/得"这类最常见的识别偏差不会让提词断轨。 ■ 换脸出镜 不想露脸的时候,选一个形象罩上去——奶橘、布丁、可可三只动物,青年男、青年女两个人物,或者只留轮廓的剪影。 说话时角色的口型跟着你动,眨眼、眼神也跟得上。全程不会露出你的真脸,录完的成片直接可用。 换脸模式下提词器照常跟读滚动,该怎么念还怎么念。 ■ 脱稿不乱滚 临时即兴发挥超过几秒,提词器会停下来等你,边框转成琥珀色提示"脱稿中"。讲回原稿会自动接上,不用手动找位置。跟丢了也可以直接点任意一行拉回去。 ■ 前后双摄画中画 前后摄像头同时录制。小窗可以拖到任意一角、点一下前后互换,大小(小/中/大)和比例(9:16 / 1:1 / 16:9)都能调。画中画直接合成进成片。 ■ 字幕不用对轴 全程知道你读到原稿第几个字、对应视频第几秒,所以可以直接导出精准字幕(SRT / JSON)。字幕文本用的是你写的稿子,不是语音识别的错字版本——省掉后期逐句对轴的时间。 录完在 App 内就能叠字幕回看,不用先导进剪辑软件才知道对不对。 ■ 提词器可调 字号、行距、面板高度、背景暗度、阅读线位置都能调。支持左右翻转,可以配外接分光提词器使用。 ■ 全程离线 语音识别在你的设备上完成。录像、脚本、识别结果、面部数据都不离开手机,除了 App Store 购买以外 App 不联网、不上传任何东西、不需要注册账号。
