Write the scene.
Cast it.
Watch it play.
Write one short scene, in screenplay form if you like: a location, a beat of action, a few lines of dialogue. Cast up to three AI performers and a set from the library, pick Draft, Standard or Cinematic, and render it as a 9:16 take with the dialogue performed. A longer story is one scene at a time.
Google sign-in. A couple of free credits to try a short draft take.
One scene on the page
Type a location, a beat of action and a few lines of dialogue, in screenplay layout or plain prose. One location, up to three characters, up to 3,000 characters.
A call sheet for up to three
Pick each performer from the library and give them an optional outfit, prop and a voice style described in words. Add one set for the location.
One take per render
Choose Draft, Standard or Cinematic and a length. The scene renders as a 9:16 take with the dialogue performed; the credit cost shows on the button first.
Short scenes, each rendered as one take
Four moves, all on one screen
Nothing here asks you to leave the page. Writing, casting, rendering and sharing sit around the scene, so a note becomes an edit and an edit becomes a new take. A longer story is just the next scene.
Write a scene- 1. Write one scene
A location, a beat of action and a few lines for up to three characters. Screenplay layout works; so does prose with lines in quotes.
- 2. Cast the performers
Up to three from the library, each with an optional outfit, prop and voice style. Add a set for the location.
- 3. Pick a tier and render
Draft, Standard or Cinematic, then a length. The credit cost is on the button before you press it.
- 4. Watch, publish, download
The take lands on your takes board, private. Publish it for a share page or download the MP4, then write the next scene.
Start from what you have
You already have the pages. Paste one scene into the studio exactly as written, cast the people in it, and render it as a 9:16 take with the dialogue performed. Then paste the next one.
Keep writing in Courier. Paste one scene of your screenplay into the studio, cast it, and render it as a 9:16 take. Then come back with the next scene. The screenplay stays yours; the studio only ever sees the scene in front of it.
Dialogue carries drama. Write the exchange, cast up to three speakers, and render a take where the characters say what you wrote, in the order you wrote it.
One cue, one block of text, one performer. Monologues are the simplest scenes to render and the most revealing, because there is nowhere for the writing to hide.
A table read tells you what the page cannot: which lines land, which drag, which joke is three words too long. Render your script one scene at a time in Draft, then play the takes back in order.
Most drama is two people in a room who want different things. Write both sides, cast both faces, and render the scene with each performer matched to their role.
Previs used to mean sketches. Here you paste a scene, pick a set for its slugline and a face for each character, and render a short take you can watch, so the script is seen before it is shot. Then visualize the next scene.
Before you write a scene
- Do I have to write in screenplay format?
- No, though it is a tidy way to write a scene: a heading such as INT. DINER - NIGHT, a line of action, a character name in capitals, the dialogue underneath. Prose with the spoken lines in quotes works just as well. Either way, keep it to one location, up to three characters and what fits in a single take.
- What does a scene cost?
- Credits per second times the duration. Draft at 720p is one credit a second. Standard at 480p is three a second, at 720p six. Cinematic runs from six a second at 480p to thirty a second at 1080p. The cost is shown on the render button before you spend anything.
- Where do the performers come from?
- From the cast library: a curated set of generated portraits plus any you create from a description for three credits. Faces cannot be uploaded because the video model only accepts generated portraits as references. Outfits, sets and props can be uploaded when no person is in the image.
- Who owns the dramas I make?
- You own them. Anything produced by the service at your direction, including video, audio, images and script text, is yours; the Terms of Service spell this out. How copyright treats generated work differs from one country to the next, so consult a lawyer if you need advice on a specific use.
- Are my takes private?
- Yes, until you publish one. Publishing gives that take its own share page, showing the clip and the scene text behind it, and a place in the showcase. You can make it private again at any time, and every take can be downloaded as an MP4. Flagged takes cannot be published.
- How do I make a longer drama?
- One scene at a time. Render the first scene, then replace the text with the next one and render again, keeping the same performers, outfits and set so the takes match. Your takes board keeps them together for playing back.
