production/Stage by stage

Stage by stage

What each agent actually does, what it hands you at its gate, and what you can change there.

Brainstorm

Narrows a starting point into one specific angle and proposes titles, one of them marked as the agent’s pick. Where the video came from a link, an idea or a competitor, it also summarises the source it read. At the gate you choose the title.

Teaser

Writes the opening hook — the first few seconds that decide whether anyone watches the rest. You get several options, each labelled with the formula it uses, its word count and an estimated read time. Pick one, or request changes.

Script

Writes the full script to the chosen hook and your target length, split into numbered scenes with per-scene durations. The gate shows the script scene by scene and as one continuous read.

Direction

The visual director plans every scene: what is on screen, the prompt that will generate it, which renderer produces it, and why. Stock and Wikimedia scenes come with real candidate footage you can preview and pick from. This is the most productive gate to spend time at — a change here costs nothing, the same change after rendering costs a re-render.

In Advanced mode each scene shows its estimated cost in tokens or stock/Remotion minutes before you approve.

Production

Renders every scene and generates its narration. The board shows each scene’s state as it completes. Any clip you dislike, or that failed, can be retried individually — with an edited prompt if you want. The gate holds until you are happy, and “Proceed anyway” force-advances with known-failed clips skipped from assembly.

Post-Production

Designs the thumbnail from frames of the finished render and writes the title, description and tags to match what is genuinely on screen. Approving here sends the run to Premiere.

Premiere

Assembles the approved scenes, narration and sound into the finished video and marks it complete. No gate — it runs straight through.
