Studio Overview
The Studio is the core production interface. It guides a generated project through a 6-step wizard from initial upload to final export, with real-time progress tracking at every stage — or, for a project made from footage you already have, straight to cutting and delivering it.
The 6-Step Workflow
Setup
Step 0: Upload
Upload your audio track, add reference images, configure the video model, generation mode, visual style, resolution, and optionally paste a script.
Planning
Step 1: Treatment
Trigger AI analysis and creative treatment generation. The platform extracts music structure, then plans scene-by-scene direction with timing and camera work.
Production
Step 2: Scenes
View generated scene images and video clips in a grid. Retry, regenerate, or remix individual scenes. Switch video providers per scene if needed.
Gallery
Step 3: Content
Browse all generated media in a content overview. Inspect images and video clips alongside their prompts and metadata.
Quality
Step 4: Review
Approve or reject each scene individually. Batch-retry all failed scenes. View quality scores and review notes from the automated quality reviewer.
Delivery
Step 5: Export
Assemble the final video from approved clips and the original audio. Download in 1080p, 4K, or vertical 9:16 format. Share via a generated link.
Or start from footage you already have
Not every project is a film to be generated. When you create a project you can choose Footage I have instead of an audio track or a brief and script. That project cuts and assembles media you upload — video, audio, stills — and never calls a model.
- It goes straight to Clips, where you upload your media and cut clips from it, then the Editor, where you arrange and trim, and Export to deliver.
- The steps that describe, plan and review a generated film are not shown, because there is nothing for them to do. Export stays: delivering a cut of your own footage is the point.
- Nothing here spends. No planning, no generation, so there is no budget to set and no ceiling to approve. The only paid thing anywhere near this path is designing a title or credits backdrop in the editor, which always asks first.
Real-Time Progress
As your project progresses through each stage, you'll see updates in real time — scene images appear, video clips generate, and quality scores update without refreshing the page.
Auto-Generate vs. Manual Steps
One Click
Auto-Generate
Runs the entire pipeline end-to-end as a background task: analysis → treatment → scene generation → quality review → assembly → export. Best for hands-off production.
Budgeted & Resumable
Producer
Runs the same pipeline as one durable job on Filmgenic's workers, inside a credit ceiling you set. Pauses for your decision instead of overspending, survives closing the tab, and retries without re-billing finished scenes. See Producer Runs & Budgets.
Full Control
Manual Steps
Trigger each stage individually. Inspect and adjust results between stages. Approve or reject scenes before assembly. Best when you want creative control at each step.
