4: The AI director

The editor assumes you know the video you want. The director is for when you do not: you have a pile of media and a sentence.

4.1: From a prompt to a storyboard

You describe the video in one line and pick a tempo and shot-length preset. First every item in your media library is captioned by a vision model, so the director knows what it is working with. Then a director call turns the prompt, the captions and the preset into a storyboard: which media, in which order, for how long, with which moves.

4.2: From a storyboard to a timeline

The storyboard is not the output; it is the plan. A deterministic compiler turns it into a full presentation: the media placed on the stage and the timeline, camera moves chosen per shot, a voiceover written and dubbed, and subtitles generated. The result is a real project in the editor, not a black box.

4.3: Refine, do not regenerate

Because the director produces an ordinary timeline, you refine it by hand: nudge a timing, swap a clip, change a transition, rewrite a line. The AI gets you to a first cut in one call; the editor gets you the rest of the way. Nothing about the generated project is special or locked.
