Reference & editing workflows
AI Video Extension Guide
Do not describe an extension as a new scene from scratch. Begin from the actual visible ending and add one next beat.
Start state
Use the exact accepted last frame.
Momentum
Carry subject and camera direction forward.
Environment
Keep layout, weather and light unless the story deliberately transitions.
New beat
Add one new action instead of rewriting the whole clip.
A practical reference workflow
- Identify the exact role of every reference: identity, product, environment, motion, start frame, end frame or edit target.
- Write down the elements that must remain unchanged before describing motion or edits.
- Describe one primary change at a time: action, camera, lighting, background, style or continuation.
- End with a stable target state that can be reviewed, edited or used as the next clip reference.
