Getting Started with Videfy

This guide walks you through the full Videfy workflow, from creating your first project to exporting your finished video. It’s designed to help you move fast while understanding what each step does, so you stay in control of your creative process.

​
1. Dashboard: Your Home Screen

When you log in, you’ll land on the Dashboard. This is where all your projects live. From here you can:
  • Open existing projects
  • Create a new project
  • Rename, duplicate, or delete projects
To get started, click Create a video.

​
2. Create Your Story

After creating a project, you’ll be taken to the Let’s Create Your Story page. This is where you define the foundation of your video. Here you’ll set:
  • Your script or idea
  • Visual style
  • Video format
  • Optional AI assistance for prompts, illustrations, characters, and voiceover

​
2.1 Choose a Script Type

Videfy supports three ways to start your story:
  • Narration script – Paste a finished narration if you already have one.
  • Idea – Write a short idea and let Videfy generate a narration script for you.
  • Scene-by-scene breakdown – Define each scene manually for maximum control.
Choose the option that best fits how much structure you already have.

​
2.2 Add Your Narration

If you’re using a narration-based flow:
  1. Write or paste your narration script
  2. Click Continue
  3. Select Tone & Context Keywords to guide generation
  4. Click Continue again
Videfy will automatically split your narration into scenes. You can:
  • Edit scene text
  • Add or remove scenes
  • Regenerate all scenes if you change the script
When everything looks right, click I Love It.

​
2.3 Choose a Visual Style

Next, select or create a Visual Style. This style will be used for generating images and videos. You can change the visual style at any time later in the process.

​
2.4 Select a Video Format

Choose the aspect ratio for your video:
  • 9:16 (vertical)
  • 16:9 (landscape)
  • 1:1 (square)
This can also be changed later if needed.

​
2.5 Let AI Help Build Your Scenes (Optional)

You can speed things up by enabling AI-assisted options:
  • Create Prompts for All Scenes – Automatically generates prompts for each scene
  • Create Illustrations for All Scenes – Automatically generates images (requires prompts to be enabled)
Even when AI is enabled, you can still edit prompts and visuals manually at any time.

​
2.6 Characters

If prompt generation is enabled, Videfy can also create characters automatically based on your script.
  • Character details are added to prompts for consistent visuals
  • You can edit characters manually at any time

​
2.7 Add Voiceover

You can either:
  • Generate a voiceover using Videfy
  • Upload your own voiceover file

​
3. Storyboard

Once your story setup is complete, you’ll move to the Storyboard. This is where you generate and organize your scenes. From the Storyboard you can:
  • Generate images, videos, and prompts
  • Reorder scenes
  • Add or remove scenes

​
3.1 Automatic Generation

If you enabled AI options earlier, Videfy will automatically start generating:
  • Prompts
  • Illustrations
  • Voiceovers

​
3.2 Compact vs Extended View

You can switch between two storyboard views:
  • Compact view – Quickly review and organize scene order
  • Extended view – Edit prompts, choose image or video per scene, adjust settings, and access Gallery or My Items

​
3.3 Generate Images or Videos

You can generate visuals in two ways:
  • Open Extended view or click Edit Visual to generate content per scene
  • Use Smart Actions → Images / Videos / Prompts → Generate → All
This lets you generate content for all scenes at once.

​
3.4 Timeline (Storyboard Stage)

At the bottom of the Storyboard, the timeline lets you:
  • Move clips
  • Remove silences
  • Upload assets
When everything is ready, click Go To Video Studio.

​
4. Video Studio

The Video Studio is where you polish your video before export. Here you can adjust visuals, timing, audio, subtitles, transitions, and effects.

​
Main Areas in Video Studio

  • Canvas – Preview your video and position overlays, visuals, and subtitles
  • Storyboard panel – Manage scenes without leaving the editor
  • Timeline – Edit clip duration, add effects, transitions, filters, and keyframes
  • Timeline toolbar – Quick editing tools directly on the timeline
  • Sidebar panel – Access overlays, subtitles, audio tools, transitions, and effects
  • Top navigation panel – Generate or replace visuals, edit prompts, access Gallery and My Items, change video format, and export your video

​
What’s Next?

Once your video looks right:
  • Use Share / Export from the top panel
  • Download or publish your final video
You’re now ready to create with Videfy!
