# Create

> Make a video from a prompt with the Create project type.

**Create** is marked Beta. Use it when you want Captions to make a video from a description, with less dependence on footage you already shot.

**1. Choose Create**

On Home, open the project type menu and select **Create**. The description is "Make any video."

![Project type menu with Create marked Beta](https://mintcdn.com/captions/YNtloFB9-FRoI6fN/help/web/images/project-types.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=YNtloFB9-FRoI6fN\&q=85\&s=c4d3acd445135f0c89e32588fc787a39)

**2. Describe the video**

Write the prompt for the finished video: subject, length, format, and anything that must appear on screen. Attach reference images or clips when you have them.

**3. Create the project**

Select **Create my video**. The result opens in the editor, where you can change layers, captions, and audio. See [Interface overview](https://captions.ai/help/web/get-started/interface-overview.md).

If you already have the footage and want it polished, use [AI Edit](https://captions.ai/help/web/start-with-your-footage/ai-edit.md) instead.
