Edit is the default project type on Home. Use it when you already have footage and want Captions to assemble a polished cut.

Stay on Edit

On Home, the project type reads Edit and the page says “Import media and select an edit style.”

Add the footage

Select Add media. Add every clip that should be available to the edit. Attach a reference with the paperclip when you want the cut to follow a specific look.

Write the prompt

Answer How do you want to edit your video? Include pacing, captions, music, and anything that must stay on screen.

Choose an edit style

Select a card under Search styles, or use Add style. Create style starts a style of your own. Cards marked Beta are exclusive styles that adapt to your footage. Add avatar is optional.
5

Create the project

Select Create my video. The editor opens with the cut on the timeline. Keep going in AI chat, or change layers by hand.

Reuse an edit style

When a project already looks right, open More options → Save edit style. It appears in My Edit Styles and in the Home style picker.
My Edit Styles, where saved edit styles are listed
Caption templates are a different control. Change those from Settings → Captions style. See Choosing a template.
