Generation Modes
The generation mode is one of the most impactful settings for your project. It shapes how scenes are planned, how visual prompts are crafted, and what kind of video is produced.
Available Modes
Music & Live
Performance
Designed for music videos centered on a performer or vocalist. The pipeline plans scenes around stage presence, vocal delivery, and audience engagement. When speech alignment is available, this mode injects lip-sync cues into video prompts so the generated performer appears to sing along.
Best for: music videos, live performance visuals, artist content
Narrative
Story
Plans a narrative arc with characters, settings, conflict, and resolution across scenes. The treatment builds dramatic progression that follows the music's emotional curve — building tension in verses, peaking at choruses, and resolving in the outro.
Best for: narrative music videos, short stories, emotional pieces
Commercial
Advertising
Optimized for commercial and branded content. Scenes are planned around product shots, brand identity, call-to-action framing, and commercial pacing. Reference images are especially valuable here for maintaining product consistency.
Best for: product launches, brand videos, commercial spots
Animation
Anime
Applied anime visual conventions throughout: dynamic poses, expressive character reactions, stylized environments, speed lines, dramatic lighting, and characteristic anime cinematography.
Best for: anime-style music videos, animation, fan content
Art & Cinema
Short Film
Plans cinematic compositions with atmospheric lighting, deliberate pacing, minimal dialogue, and visual storytelling. Prioritizes mood, composition, and cinematic language over narrative exposition.
Best for: art films, mood pieces, cinematic experiments
Factual
Documentary
Plans observational scenes with natural lighting, diverse locations, informational composition, and a documentary visual language. Emphasizes realism, environmental context, and authentic human moments.
Best for: documentary-style videos, factual content, social media
Choosing a Mode
The mode is set at project creation and applies to the entire project. Consider:
- Performance mode is the default for music-led content and produces the best results when the audio has vocals.
- Story mode works best with tracks that have a clear emotional arc (tension → release).
- Advertising mode pairs well with reference images of the product or brand.
- Modes can be changed by updating the project settings before regenerating the treatment.
