Getting Started

​

Create your first video in Videfy

This guide walks you through the full Videfy workflow, from creating your first project to exporting your finished video. You’ll learn how each step works so you can move quickly while staying 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:

• Idea – Write a short idea and let Videfy generate a narration script for you.
• Voiceover script – Paste a finished narration if you already have one.
• Scene Flow – Define each scene manually for maximum control.

Choose the option that best fits how much structure you already have.

​

2.2 Add Your Voiceover Script

If you’re using a voiceover-based flow:

1. Write or paste your voiceover script
2. Click Continue
3. Select Tone & Context Keywords to guide generation
4. Click Continue again

Videfy will automatically split your script 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 – generates prompts for each scene
• Create Illustrations for All Scenes – generates images (requires prompts to be enabled)
• Keep Character Consistency – Maintains the same character appearance across all generated scene images

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.

• You can edit characters manually at any time

​

2.7 Add Voiceover

Next, choose how you want to add narration to your video. You can either:

• Generate a voiceover using Videfy – Turn your narration script into AI voiceover
• Upload your own voiceover file – Use audio you’ve already recorded

When generating a voiceover, you can use:

• Quick – Generate narration quickly with simple voice settings
• Pro – Access more advanced voice controls
• Upload – Add your own audio file instead of generating one

In Quick mode, you can choose the voice model, language, accent, narrator pace, and narrator. When you’re ready, click Generate Voiceover. Videfy shows the estimated duration, word count, character usage, and credit cost before generation, so you can review everything before creating the final voiceover.

​

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

To generate visuals, open Extended view or click Edit Visual to generate & edit content per scene

​

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 Videfy Studio.

​

4. Videfy Studio

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

​

• Canvas – Preview your video and position overlays, visuals, and subtitles
