Set the format, runtime, language and setting
Make the foundational choices that guide a coherent production.
Match the format to the story
Choose the film or episode format that fits the project. Set a runtime that gives the action enough room. A dense script with many locations and long conversations will need more time than a simple visual moment. Where automatic runtime is offered, review the suggested length rather than assuming it matches a fixed target.
Define a consistent world
Genre, era, regional setting and language help establish the story’s context. State exceptions directly in your brief, such as a bilingual conversation or a historical scene with a modern framing device. A regional setting is creative direction; it does not by itself translate every line or guarantee a particular accent.
Carry continuity into an episode
When making a continuation, add the previous episode through the Previous EP option where available. Explain what must carry forward: character relationships, unresolved events, wardrobe and location. Review the new script for contradictions. Choose your output aspect ratio early so references and composition match the destination.
