# Create a video Describe your video, pick a format and settings, then press Create video. You see the price before anything renders. Source: https://infinall.ai/docs/video/create-a-video Last checked: 2026-10-26 ## What it is The video composer is the box where you describe a video and choose how it is made. Press **Create video** and Infinall plans the video, then shows a price. Nothing renders until you press **Approve & render**. ## Who can use it Video is part of the Pro plan. The backend checks your plan on every step that starts video work: planning, reading a change, approving a script and approving a render. A Free account is refused at each of them. Models marked **Pro** in the model list are checked again when you press **Approve & render**, and only the Pro plan passes that check. On Free, the **Video** tab on Home shows a lock and opens an upgrade prompt. In a Studio project, the composer shows "Video is part of the Pro plan. Upgrade to Pro to make videos." with an **Upgrade** button, and **Create video** stays off. ## Cost Uses credits. You see the exact price before you confirm. While your plan is being written, a small hold is taken and only AI work that actually ran is charged. The price of the render itself shows on the price card, and nothing is charged for the render until you press **Approve & render**. See [Price before you confirm](/docs/credits/price-before-you-confirm). ## Where to find it On Home, choose the **Video** tab. In a Studio project, use the **What to make** bar and choose **Video**. Send from Home opens a new Studio project in Video mode and creates your video there. ## Buttons and controls ![The video composer in Video mode with the prompt box and its row of format, model, length, shape and quality buttons](/docs/screens/video/create-a-video.webp) | # | Name in the app | What it does | Plan | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | Describe an ad, product story, demo, UGC video, or type / for formats | The prompt box.

Type what you want in the prompt box. Say who it is for, what it shows and what it should say. 3. Optional: pick a brand, a format, a length, a shape and a quality. Every one has a sensible default, so you can skip them. 4. Press **Create video**. A video card appears on the canvas and reads **Planning**. 5. Wait for the plan. The panel says "Preparing your video. This can take a minute." 6. Read the price on the price card. It shows the credits, the length and the number of clips, and counts down how long the price holds. 7. Press **Approve & render**. The card shows progress until it reads **Ready**. 8. Save the finished video. See [Download and save your finished video](/docs/video/download-and-export). If you chose **Storyboard** in step 3, a Storyboard panel opens first so you can read the script before the price. See [The storyboard](/docs/video/storyboard). ## How to attach files 1. Press the plus button (**Add files and advanced video settings**). 2. Choose **Add photos & files**. 3. Pick your files. You can add images, video, audio, PDF, DOCX, TXT or PPT files. 4. For each file, use **Role for (file name)** to say how it is used. 5. Tick the rights and consent box. **Create video** stays off until you do. Some formats need a file before they can start. A message under the composer tells you which one, for example that the format needs a source video or source images. ## How to make several versions 1. Open **Video quality and outputs**. 2. Under **Outputs**, press a number. Press 1 for a single video, or a larger number for an A/B set. 3. Press **Create video**. Each version is planned on its own. Pick between them with the **Variant** buttons in the video panel. ## Options explained **Generate vs Storyboard.** **Generate** goes straight to the price. **Storyboard** lets you read and edit the spoken script first. **Role for a file.** The roles you can pick depend on the file type. Images: product_visual, style_reference, presenter. Video: style_reference, clone_source. Audio: narration, music_bed, voice_sample, script_source. Documents: brand_document, script_source. The app picks a role for you when you add a file. **Format, length, shape, quality.** Each has its own page. See [Video formats](/docs/video/video-formats) and [Length, aspect and outputs](/docs/video/length-aspect-and-outputs). **The model list.** The list shows a name for each model that is available right now, and the model you picked is used for the footage. With an avatar picked, the list splits into models that work with your avatar and models that cannot use a real face. ## Limits - Your brief must be 5 to 5,000 characters. - You can attach up to 10 files to one video, each up to 100 MB. - A video can be 1 to 180 seconds long. - You can make 1 to 20 versions at once. - A price holds for 10 minutes. ## When something goes wrong | Message in the app | What it means | What to do | | --- | --- | --- | | Video is part of the Pro plan. Upgrade to Pro to make videos. | Your account is not on Pro. | Choose **Upgrade**. | | Out of credits. Add credits in Settings > Credits to make videos. | Your balance is too low. | Add credits.

Planning can use a small amount of credits for the AI work that ran. The render is only charged after you press **Approve & render**, and the exact price shows first. ### Can I change the format after I press Create video? Not on the same video. Start a new one with the format you want, or send a change in the chat. See [Edit a finished video](/docs/video/edit-a-finished-video). ### Why is Create video grey? It is grey until the brief is typed and the lists have loaded. It also stays grey if you attached files and have not ticked the rights box, if a format that needs a file has none, or if your account is not on Pro. ### Where does my video go? Onto your Studio canvas as a video card, in the project you made it in. You can save it from there. ### Can my brand shape the video? Yes. Pick a brand with the brand button. The plan is then written with your brand in mind. See [Use your brand](/docs/brand-brain/use-your-brand).
