What it automates

1. Plan the video: Turn a topic or script into scenes, narration beats, visual directions, and caption timing.
2. Generate the assets: Run the recommended models for voice, scene media, optional music, and caption transcription.
3. Render the final: Assemble the scenes into a vertical short with captions, audio mixing, and a downloadable MP4.

Common questions

What is this Compose recipe?

A full-production workflow that turns a brief or script into a finished short-form video: it plans the scenes, creates the visuals, adds voiceover and captions, and renders the final MP4.

How is it different from an effect template?

Effect templates apply one curated look to a single generation request. Compose recipes run the whole production and return an assembled video. Browse single-shot effects at Generation Templates.

Can I use it through the API?

How does billing work?

Each production step is billed at the normal pay-as-you-go rate of the model it runs, and the steps are itemized in your usage logs. There is no extra recipe fee.
