Steps
1Bring in the clip
This works on one clip at a time, so pick the shot that actually needs the help and load it.
2Type the change you want
Say what should change, and keep it short and specific.
You have up to 2,000 characters and up to 3 reference stills.
3Click Generate
Check which model runs the job in the dropdown beside Generate, then click Generate.
4Watch what comes back
Your request and the result sit together like a conversation, so you can ask again without starting over.

5Run it again or start a new chat
Click Re-generate on your request card for another take with the same request. Or click New Chat to move on to another shot.
6Find the clip in My Creations
Click My Creations at the top right of the window to find the new version of your shot.
