Meet the AI Director: from one idea to a finished film
Describe a story once and get a storyboard, rendered shots and a stitched film with voice-over.

Single clips are great. Stories need several shots that belong together. The AI Director handles that for you.
How it works
- Describe your idea. For example: a 20 second vertical ad for a cold brew coffee brand.
- Pick a skill. Product Ad, UGC Ad, Cinematic Short, Music Video and more. Each skill knows the pacing and camera language of its genre.
- Review the storyboard. The director writes every shot with camera notes. Edit, reorder or delete shots.
- Render. Shots render in parallel, then we stitch them into one film, with an optional AI voice-over.
Tips
- Name your character once and describe their clothing. The director repeats it in every shot for consistency.
- Keep each shot between 4 and 8 seconds.
- Re-render a single shot without paying for the whole film again.
