Step 1: Open the generator

Navigate to the Make page. You'll see a form on the left and an empty output area on the right. The left panel has four controls: Scene Description, Visual Style, Frame Size, and AI Model.

Step 2: Write your scene

The Scene Description is where your imagination goes. Start simple and build up:

Simple: "A lighthouse on rocky cliffs during a storm"

Detailed: "A Victorian lighthouse on dramatic rocky Atlantic cliffs during a winter storm, waves crashing against rocks, dark churning sky, warm golden light from the lighthouse window, cinematic wide angle shot"

Both work — but the detailed version gives you more control. Use the ✨ Smart Enhance button to automatically improve your scene description.

Step 3: Choose style and size

Leave Style as "Cinematic" and Size as "1792×1024" (widescreen default) for your first generation. You can explore other styles once you're comfortable with the basics.

Step 4: Generate and download

Click "Generate Frame". Wait 8-12 seconds. Your cinematic frame will appear in the output area. Click "Download Frame" to save it to your device.

Your first generation is the beginning. Try regenerating with small prompt variations to see how different words affect the output. Iteration is the key to mastery.
