# What is Cinema

> A space for films: a script of scenes, a storyboard that renders them one by one, an edit with transitions and sound, and an MP4 export.

_Help center › Cinema_

A single clip is one beat. Cinema is how you make something longer: a film is a list of scenes that share one look — engine, format, lighting, palette, cast — and render as separate clips you then cut together. It lives at Studio → Cinema, with three tabs per film: Script, Storyboard and Edit, and a Look panel on the side.

## Starting a film

- From scratch: New film, then write scenes in the script.
- From a recipe: six complete scripts — notes, scenes, dialogue and a look — that you adapt. Opening one costs nothing; only rendering does.
- From the home or Ask: a prompt handed to Cinema becomes scene 1. "Continue as a film" on a Quick result does the same with that take.

## Limits worth knowing

Up to 24 scenes per film and 50 saved films. Films autosave as you type. Private mode renders nothing in Cinema, because the edit needs stored takes.
