Who should use an AI storytelling video generator?+
It is designed for creators, educators, filmmakers, animators, marketers, and storytellers. It is useful when a project needs connected scenes rather than isolated generated clips. Instant Mode is suited to fast short-form story creation. Director Mode is suited to users who want more control over characters, scenes, references, shots, and composition. The best starting point depends on how much direction your story requires.
How do I get started?+
Start by opening the Storyteller entry point and choosing the workflow that matches your project. You can begin with a prompt, script, image, audio file, video, or another supported reference. Instant Mode takes you directly from a prompt to a short video. Director Mode starts with a storyboard, lets you refine individual shots, and renders the final video. Clear prompts and useful references give the system more direction for the story you want to create.
Can I use images, video, and audio as references?+
Yes, Smart Reference supports images, videos, and audio. You can use multiple reference types in one project. Director Mode also supports custom character reference images. Scene reference images and reference videos can guide visual direction and motion. These inputs help you communicate the intended look, character, or movement more specifically than a text prompt alone.
What are the video duration limits?+
Instant Mode supports 10-second and 15-second videos. Director Mode supports 30-second, 60-second, 90-second, 3-minute, 5-minute, and 10-minute durations. The available duration depends on the selected mode and the product plan. Longer story formats are useful for educational narratives, cinematic shorts, and more developed character journeys. Review the current plan details before starting a high-volume or long-duration project.

Can I download and edit the generated story?+
You can download videos created on the platform. Mootion also provides downloadable story assets, including scripts, images, and video clips. These assets can be used for third-party editing and compositing. This gives creators more flexibility after generation rather than requiring the entire production to remain inside one interface. Export and download availability should be checked against the plan and current product terms.
