No more scrubbing through hours of footage. Just ask Claude Code or Codex to find clips for you. Daydream watches the footage you import, so you can search for b-roll just by describing it. Say what you want to show and Daydream finds a matching clip in your own footage and places it on the timeline. Ask Claude Code or Codex to do this for you, or search and place clips yourself. ## Import your footage first Before you can add b-roll, import the clips you want to draw from under **Footage / Images / Music**. Click **Add Footage** and select your videos, images, or audio. Daydream watches your video clips and indexes them so it can search them later. Daydream Footage / Images / Music import section with the Add Footage button Only footage you import here is searchable. Your voiceover is not used as b-roll. ## Add b-roll with Claude Code or Codex Once your footage is imported, ask Claude Code or Codex to add b-roll by describing what you want to show. The agent searches your footage and places matching clips on the timeline. For example: * "Add b-roll of a city skyline over the intro." * "Find a clip of someone typing on a laptop for the part about coding." * "Add b-roll throughout the section where I talk about travel." The agent works from your transcript and your footage, so you can point it at any part of your video and let it find the right clip. ## Add b-roll yourself You can also search and place b-roll on your own. Start from either the transcript or the timeline, then describe the clip you want and Daydream finds matching footage to drop in. ### From the transcript Select the text for the section you want to cover, then click **Add B-roll**. A search opens where you describe the clip you want. Selecting transcript text in Daydream and choosing Add B-roll ### From the timeline Right-click and drag on the timeline to select the range you want to cover. A search opens where you describe the clip, and Daydream adds it for that duration. Selecting a range on the Daydream timeline to add a b-roll clip
