Plan every Scene before you film it

Say one sentence and the AI Director writes a Story: Scenes in order, who is in each one, and what happens. Each Scene is drawn as an Image first, so you can fix a pose, a prop or a face before you spend on video. Then film the Scenes you keep with the default model or Seedance 2.

Writing the Story costs 0 Credits. Images come next, then Clips, each priced on the button.

From premise to filmed Scenes

Write, draw, then film. Each step is cheaper to change than the next.

  1. Pitch it in one sentence

    Tell the AI Director what happens and who is in it. It writes the Scenes in order and assigns your Characters.

  2. Draw and adjust the Scenes

    Each Scene becomes an Image. Rewrite a line, reorder Scenes or recast a part until the Story reads right.

  3. Film the Scenes you keep

    Pick the model per Scene, check the price and film. Auto-film can film the whole Story for you, up to a cap you set.

Video is the expensive step. Do it last.

A Clip costs more than an Image, and an Image costs more than a line of text. Settle the order, the Cast and the key frames before you film, and fewer takes go to waste.

Give every Scene one clear event.

A Scene that films well has one subject, one action and one camera idea: she slides the ring across the table, and the camera holds on his face. Two events in one Scene usually means two Scenes.

Vertical, square or wide.

Pick 9:16 for phones, 1:1 for feeds or 16:9 for a widescreen cut. The app only offers the shapes the chosen model supports.

FAQ

Does planning cost Credits?
Writing and reviewing the Story costs 0 Credits. Scene Images use your daily Lite Images first, then Credits. Clips need a plan and show their price before you press.
Can I film every Scene with Seedance 2?
You can pick it for any Scene where it is offered. Many people film most Scenes on the default model and save Seedance 2 for a few, since each model has its own rate.
How many Scenes can a Story have?
A Story has 3 to 10 Scenes. For something longer, start the next Story in the same World and the Cast comes with it.
What is Auto-film?
Auto-film is a switch in the AI Director. Turn it on and it films the Story for you, up to a Credit cap you set for each Story.
Can I change a Scene after it is filmed?
Yes. Give the Scene a new direction and make a new take. The new take is priced on the button like the first.
