Introduces Morisawa's Web Font Service "TypeSquare"
～More than 60 types of character designs for more beautiful and richer video expression~
September 2, 2019-Tokyo- OPEN8 is pleased to announce the introduction of Morisawa’s TypeSquare web font service in VIDEO BRAIN.
VIDEO BRAIN is an AI-automated video editing cloud that “makes editing easier for everyone” by featuring editing functions that bring more than 30,000 design combinations, with carefully designed UI/UX and unique AI support.
Our technology solves the problems of lack of skill, cost, and time, which have been the challenges of video editing for companies. Currently, it is used in a wide range of situations such as PR activities, CSR activities, brand marketing through social media, or even for corporate recruiting allowing companies to do video editing in-house.
And today, we are proud to announce that VIDEO BRAIN implemented Morisawa’s TypeSquare web font service, which has been used in numerous designs. This allows users to select a font for their message from a full lineup of more than 60 different typefaces. In addition to changing the typeface of the message for each scene, it is also possible to reflect multiple messages in different typefaces within a single scene. ( For Japanese and alphabet only)
The combination of text design in video editing expands the range of customization for users, allowing them to experience beautiful typefaces and rich visual expression appropriate to the image of each scene.
OPEN8 will continue to strive to develop and provide services that revolutionize lifestyles and enrich the world with its mission to “continue to create experiences that move users’ hearts and provide comfortable information distribution”.
■Background to the launch of VIDEO BRAIN
Open8 has been developing and deploying the “LeTRONC AI”, which automatically generates “recommended” video content for the user from over 12,000 videos in its media business,”LeTRONC”, by analyzing users’ viewing and search behavior history. Later, to contribute to the popularization of video and the expansion of the market, we announced the beta version of the AI video editing cloud “Video BRAIN”, in September 2018 and officially released it on February 20, 2019, utilizing video-related technologies such as text and image analyzation, automatic editing and distribution that we have cultivated through our own business.
