Your First VidBlitz Video

Use this guide for the shortest complete path from an idea to a reviewable long-form video.

1. Describe the Video

Open Create Video and enter a clear production request of 50 to 10,000 characters. Include the subject, target viewer, story or argument, tone, important facts, preferred runtime, and useful visual direction.

You can start with:

• A prompt and let VidBlitz prepare the script and narration.
• A complete custom script.
• A finished custom voiceover.
• Optional content and thumbnail references when offered.

Custom Script and Custom Voiceover cannot be used together.

2. Read the Prompt Check

VidBlitz checks the request before reserving credits.

• Pass: continue to the Quote Statement.
• Warning: review the risk, revise the request or acknowledge it before confirmation.
• Block: correct the issue and check again.
• Unavailable: retry; no generation credits are reserved or charged for an unavailable check.

The checker may recommend a production tier based on the request.

3. Review the Quote Statement

The Quote Statement is the production plan you approve. Check the title, format, presentation, audience, key facts, language, runtime, production tier, voice, visual direction, source permissions, references, warnings, expected deliverable, and estimated credits.

Choose VidBlitz Low at 35 credits per minute, VidBlitz Medium at 44 credits per minute, or VidBlitz High at 55 credits per minute. Higher tiers analyze candidate footage and references more deeply.

Edit anything that is wrong. Important changes trigger a fresh check or estimate so an older approval cannot start a different production.

4. Confirm Production

Choose the runtime, acknowledge the current warnings, and confirm the Quote Statement. VidBlitz reserves the estimate, queues production, and opens the progress view.

There is no separate Auto or Manual mode and no later script-approval pause. If you need exact narration, provide a Custom Script before confirming.

5. Follow Progress

The project page shows plain-language milestones while VidBlitz prepares the narration, plans the story and visuals, finds and reviews sources, builds the editable timeline, renders the video, and checks the result.

If a visual remains uncovered, VidBlitz can try a focused recovery pass and then a relevant Animated Scene before asking you to accept a visible placeholder. You can close the browser and return later.

6. Review Before Publishing

Watch the complete delivered video. Check facts, narration, captions, visuals, source-original-audio moments, pacing, music, title, and thumbnail.

Open the editor to replace media, adjust timing, text, captions, treatments, and audio. Save a version before major changes, render again when ready, and review the final download before uploading to YouTube.
