Streamline your film production process with an automatic clapperboard capture built with Zapier and Google Gemini. This tool automatically captures detailed information from your clapperboard using Google Gemini and organizes it in Zapier Tables, making it easy for production teams to track and manage video data efficiently.

Why you should use a clapper capture template in Zapier

Say goodbye to manual data entry and let the power of Zapier and Google Gemini handle the details. With this system, Zapier will automatically capture important clapperboard information from your video files and save it in a centralized table. This allows your production team to focus on what they do best—creating amazing content—without getting bogged down by administrative tasks.

How the template works

When a new video file is uploaded into a specified Google Drive folder, the Zap triggers Google's Gemini model to analyze the video and capture clapperboard details such as scene, production, date, timestamp, director, roll, camera, and take. All this information along with a link to the original file is then stored in a Zapier table for easy access and organization.

To set things up, follow these simple steps:

• Click Use template
• Sign up or log in to your Zapier account (it's free to sign up)
• Navigate to the Zap from the Linked Assets tab within the table to add your video upload folder and Google Gemini account
• Test each step in the Zap
• Publish Zap
• Start uploading video files and see the clapperboard data captured and organized automatically in the Zapier table
