How long your video can be
Length limits for ideas, scripts, recordings and songs on each plan, and how to make a longer story.
Reviewed
How long your video can be depends on your plan and on how you start: from an idea, a script, or a recording. The create page always shows the limits for your plan.
From an idea: the Duration menu
- Under Duration, pick a length: ~15s, ~30s, ~1m, ~3m, ~5m, ~10m or ~15m. The page starts on ~30s.
- Lengths above your plan's limit are greyed out and show (Upgrade).
- The length is a target, not an exact promise. See Choose a video length and preset if your video came out shorter or longer.
From a script, a recording or a song
- With a script or a recording, you do not pick a length. The Duration row shows Script or Audio and the estimated length.
- The script window shows the number of spoken words, the estimated length and your plan's maximum. If the script is too long, it says Over your plan limit. Shorten your script or upgrade to use longer scripts.
- A script must be at least 15 seconds long. A shorter script shows Script too short when you generate.
- If a recording is longer than your plan allows, the app shows Audio Too Long and does not upload it. For a song on Music Video, it shows Song Too Long.
Limits per plan
| Plan | Longest Duration choice | Longest script, recording or song |
|---|---|---|
| Pro | ~10m | 10 minutes |
| Creator | ~10m | 10 minutes |
| Creator Max | ~15m | 15 minutes |
| Studio | ~15m | 15 minutes |
| Studio Max | ~15m | 15 minutes |
Older plans have their own limits: Starter goes up to ~3m (3 minutes), and Plus up to ~10m (10 minutes).
Make a longer story in parts
A story longer than your plan allows can be made as several videos.
- Split the story into parts, for example one chapter per part.
- Make each part as its own video.
- Use the same universe, characters and style in every part. See Use universes and consistent characters.
Before a long video, make a short test video to check the look and the voices.
