Redoing a shot
On a selected shot, the “Regenerate” panel offers:- “Regenerate the image”: redoes the shot’s image. With “Redo the clip with the new image”, the clip is redone right after.
- “Regenerate the clip”: redoes only the animation.
- “Animate this shot with an engine”: animates a shot that was only a still image. An “Engine” menu lets you choose the one for the shot.
- “Redo the voice”: redoes the line.
If a shot comes from the drawer, there is nothing to regenerate on it: generate another media from the drawer. And some formats don’t regenerate their shots from the editor: open the project instead.
Generating a media for the timeline
The “Type of media to generate” drawer has four tabs: Image, Clip, Voice, Music. Each field expects a concrete sentence.- Weak
- Improved
Redoing the music
The “Music” panel lets you “Redo the music” with a “Style” (at least 3 characters) and a length. Empty, the project’s style is reused. Some videos only lay down their music at export: it then can’t be changed in the editor.Common mistakes
- Relaunching without reading the announced price: it is shown before each regeneration, look at it.
- Regenerating the image after approving the clip: the clip isn’t redone on its own, tick “Redo the clip with the new image”.
- A voice text with acting directions: what you write is spoken.
- Canceling thinking it refunds: a task already sent to the provider is still billed.
- Exporting while a shot is regenerating: wait until they are ready, or the app refuses.
Settings that go with it
- Engine of the shot: see Choosing an engine.
- Recents: generated media stay in the drawer to be reused.
- Spending methodically: see Spending credits wisely.
