​

Mandatory settings

Videfy requires a visual style and video format for every video. These are automatically set by default, so you don’t need to take action to continue.

• Visual style – A default style is already applied. You can keep it or choose a different style.
• Video format – A default aspect ratio and layout are preselected. You can change them if needed.

These settings are always present. You either continue with the defaults or customize them — it’s not possible to proceed without them being set. Optional setup

• Tone – Define mood (e.g. cinematic, emotional, playful)
• Content keywords – Add context to guide AI prompt generation

​

Step 3: Generate Voiceover Script

​

Step 5: Generate scenes and visuals

Choose whether to:

• Create prompts for all scenes
• Create illustrations for all scenes
