Use Instant Mode when your priority is creating a short video directly from a prompt. It supports videos up to 30 seconds and is designed for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels. Use Director Mode when you need custom character references, scene references, motion references, or more precise shot control. Both modes use the same broader idea-to-video product experience but serve different levels of production detail.
Yes, Instant Mode includes Smart Reference inputs for images, videos, and audio. Director Mode also supports uploading custom character images, scene reference images, and reference videos for motion. These inputs give the system more context than a text prompt alone. The available reference workflow depends on the mode and the type of video you want to produce.
Mootion 5.0 emphasizes maintaining the same character identity, expression, and performance across scenes. Director Mode provides a character list and supports custom character reference images. You can also generate reference images before generating all clips. Clear references and a structured storyboard give you more control over how characters appear throughout a story.
You can download videos created on the platform. Mootion also provides downloadable story assets such as scripts, images, and video clips for third-party editing and compositing. This can be useful when a Short or Reel needs final adjustments outside the platform. The available export and download options can depend on the product experience and plan.
