Edit by chat with the director

The director is a chat box in the editor. It is quicker than the controls for changes that touch many shots at once, such as "under 30 seconds".

1. In the editor, open the Director tab.
2. Type in Message the director and press Send, or tap one of the suggestions such as "Shorter, 20 seconds" or "Spanish voiceover".
3. The director replies with the list of changes it would make. Nothing has changed yet.
4. Press Apply to timeline to put the changes into the shot list, or Discard to drop them. After applying you can still adjust anything by hand.
5. Press Apply changes to render.

It can do what the shot list does: reorder and remove shots, set shot lengths or a total length, change camera moves, set the opening shot and hook line, rewrite narration lines, turn narration on or off, change the language, set on-screen captions, change the caption style or type kit, and change the music mood.

It cannot pick a different voice (use the voice picker under Narration script), swap or edit photos, regenerate a clip, download files, remove a watermark or change your plan.
