Official tutorials

Step-by-step walkthroughs from the DreamOddly team, covering script, storyboard, characters and image generation.

Commerce and product cuts

Put product details such as price and link clearly in the end card, and keep image quality the first priority.

Let fabric and hair move

Spell out how hems and loose hair react to wind, running or a turn, so the costume does not look welded to the body.

Slow push in (dolly-in)

Move slowly toward the subject with dolly-in or creeping-push-in to create approach, focus, or tension.

Specify BPM or beat cuts

State the BPM or ask for beat-matched editing so shots and actions land on the beat.

Play it back on a real device

Play the cut back on a real device through real speakers instead of trusting a scaled-down preview window.

Grandfather who leaves the light on

Give him grey hair, a worn sweater, and a warm mug he often raises.

Jump cut to compress time

Use jump-cut to compress time and create a rushed or absurd feel.

The storyboard is upstream

When images keep drifting, return to the storyboard card, check the subject, action, camera, and environment descriptions, then regenerate.

City parkour, light as air

A runner vaults a city railing and lands as lightly as a weightless step, then pushes off the next one with full explosive force.

Muted pastels and earth tones

Choose morandi-muted when you want a low-saturation documentary feel.

Truck left or truck right

Use truck-left or truck-right to follow a subject in parallel or show depth along stalls or a production line.

Follow the upstream gap

When generation is blocked, read the panel call-out naming the earliest upstream gap (missing character reference, missing first frame, low balance) and jump straight to it.

Golden hour (style: golden-hour)

Use golden-hour for golden sunset light, long shadows, and warm tones.

Fill in delivery metadata

Enter title, tags, cover image, and aspect ratio at export time so the publish page and the share page have what they need.

Give characters a catchphrase

Give a character a catchphrase or recurring line to strengthen recognition, as with the S1 clerk or S8 artisan.

Control share visibility

Set each share page to public or private, and confirm that unpublishing or replacing a version actually takes effect rather than leaving the old one live.

Collecting smiles from strangers

A young person living alone collects smiles from strangers across the city.

Explore light, finish high quality

Explore framing and camera position with a lightweight model, then use a high-quality model for the final frame.

Memory restoration technician

Dress him in an old sweater under a white coat, put a reader in his hand, and have him remove his glasses when concentrating.

What you preview is what you export

What you see in the timeline preview must match what the export produces.

Brief an emotional arc

Brief the music as an emotional arc (calm, then tension, then release) aligned to your script beats, which is far more actionable than naming a track.

Return to the dashboard

Go back to the dashboard after exporting or publishing and confirm the project card reflects the real progress.

Leave room to zoom

Leave a little margin around the frame when generating so a later push-in or zoom does not crop the key subject.

Spacesuit details

Specify matte white, soft joint connectors, a chest indicator light, and an item taped inside the visor.
