How long does the whole thing take?

A short is usually a few minutes end to end. Longer films take proportionally longer, since every scene needs its own image and clip.

Can I watch it happen?

Yes — the studio shows live progress scene by scene, and you can leave the page and come back without losing anything.

Re-render just that scene. You can also rewrite its lines, reorder it, or delete it without touching the rest of the film.

Finished scenes are kept, and credits for the unfinished part are returned to you automatically.

How it works

Eight steps happen between your sentence and your video. Here's exactly what each one does — and where your money goes.

1
You describe the idea
One or two sentences, or a full script if you already have one. That's the entire input.
2
The idea is screened
Content rules are checked before anything is spent, so a blocked idea never costs you credits.
3
The director writes it
Your idea becomes a story with characters, scenes, dialogue and shot direction. Past about two minutes it's planned in acts and chapters.
4
The cast is designed
Each character gets a reference sheet — the anchor that keeps their face identical in every later scene.
5
Every scene is drawn
A keyframe is generated per scene, composed against the cast references and your chosen visual style.
6
Scenes are animated
Each keyframe becomes a moving clip. On the storyboard tier this step is skipped to keep costs down.
7
Voices are recorded
Narration and per-character dialogue are spoken with distinct voices, or skipped entirely for a silent cut with subtitles.
8
It's scored and cut
Audio and video are synced, subtitles burnt in, and everything assembled into 16:9 and 9:16 masters.
