A CLIP IS NOT A FILM.

Textideo Director directs every scene.

One prompt returns one clip, and a folder of clips is not a story. Textideo Director holds your chapters, references, shots, takes, audio and subtitles in a single project, so every scene can be regenerated, compared and cut until the film actually holds together.

From the first chapter to the final export, every step stays inside the same project.

Textideo Director structures your story scene by scene

Break the film into project → chapter → shot → take, then generate the video, images, voiceover and music each scene needs without leaving the workspace.

  • Chapter-based storyboard
  • Generate video, image, speech and music in place
  • Reorder scenes as the story changes

Keep characters, locations and products consistent

Upload or generate your characters, locations and products once, then reuse them across shots and episodes. Lock the first or last frame so motion and look stay continuous from cut to cut.

  • Reusable reference library per project
  • First & last frame lock
  • One consistent look across episodes

Compare takes in Textideo Director until the moment lands

Not every shot lands on the first try. Generate another take, keep the earlier versions, and cut in the one that carries the story forward.

  • Multiple takes per shot
  • Prompt, references and settings stay on the clip
  • Regenerate without starting over

Edit every track and refine every shot

Trim, split, drag and reorder video, audio, subtitle and text tracks on a multitrack timeline. Lock, hide or mute a track whenever you need to focus.

  • Video / audio / subtitle / text tracks
  • Lock · hide · mute per track
  • Drag on-screen text straight in the preview

Make every subtitle match the scene

Add subtitles, edit any line, and set the font, size, color and position — then burn them into the exported video instead of shipping a sidecar file.

  • Editable subtitle tracks
  • Style once, apply across the film
  • Rendered into the export

Export the final cut from Textideo Director

Render with the server-side exporter or compose straight in your browser. The finished file is saved to your library and added back to the project.

  • 1080p export
  • Multi-track mix with audio and subtitles
  • Result saved to your uploads

Everything Textideo Director puts on one timeline

Generate, compare and refine every shot in place, as your story moves from first frame to final cut.

Generate in place

Open the Create with AI panel over the timeline — it floats, so Textideo Director keeps generating while you keep editing.

Every clip keeps its settings

Prompt, references, model, duration and resolution stay attached to the clip you can re-run later.

Frame-accurate continuity

Guide the next generation with a locked start or end frame, so the movement you already approved carries into the next shot.

Multitrack editing

Video, audio, subtitle and text tracks side by side, with trim, split, drag and reorder.

Audio mixing

Balance dialogue, music and effects per track, or mute and solo a track while you cut.

Subtitle burn-in

Style captions once and export them rendered into the video, not just as a sidecar file.

Wall-clock preview

Scrub the playhead and preview your cuts with the same timing the export will use.

Share a read-only cut

Publish a share link when you want feedback, and keep the Textideo Director project itself private.

What you can direct with Textideo Director

Short dramas, brand films, music videos, explainers and social clips — Textideo Director matches its pacing to the story you are telling.

For brands and marketers

Make every product shot feel worth buying

Keep the product, palette and lighting consistent from a studio reveal to a lifestyle scene, then let Textideo Director cut it into a film that looks intentional and ready to sell.

For short drama and storytellers

Keep viewers hooked from one episode to the next

Hold a reaction one beat longer before the reveal, then quicken the pace as conflict breaks — while faces and locations stay consistent across episodes.

For musicians and visual artists

Turn the sound in your head into a visual world

Generate the track, then cut visuals that move with it: a floating chorus, sharp cuts on a heavy beat, a slow drift through neon haze.

For YouTubers and social creators

Make every video feel like your channel

Give tutorials a clean rhythm and creator stories a warm, candid pace, with subtitles and visuals that stay recognizably yours.

Why filmmakers choose Textideo Director over a one-shot generator

A one-shot generator returns a clip and forgets it the moment the next prompt starts. This workspace is built for the whole film.

Textideo Director remembers your story

Chapters, references and settings stay attached to the project, so shot ten still matches shot one.

Textideo Director keeps every take

Nothing is overwritten: regenerate a shot and compare versions side by side before you cut.

One timeline, not five tabs

Pacing, sound and captions are edited together in context, instead of being fixed in three separate apps afterwards.

Nothing to install

The editor runs in your browser; export happens in the cloud or inside your own tab.

Private until you share it

Projects stay private by default, and a share link gives reviewers a read-only cut.

Pair Textideo Director with the rest of the toolkit

Start the story here, then drop into a dedicated tool when a single shot needs its own workflow.
