Making multiple PMVs from one library - efficient workflow

⏱ A few minutes per PMV once your clips are analyzed

Steps

Import your full library once

Import your entire clip collection. On Core and Studio, clips are indexed in place, so nothing is copied; each video is analyzed once, and every later PMV reuses that analysis. The more source material you have, the more variety between PMVs.

Create your first PMV

Pick your first song, choose a preset, preview, and export. This establishes your baseline workflow.

Swap the song and repeat

Replace the song with your next track. The AI re-analyzes and re-assembles with different clips and timing. Choose a different preset if the new song has different energy. Each additional PMV takes just minutes.

Vary presets across songs

Match presets to each song's energy: Sensual for slower R&B tracks, Aggressive for EDM bangers, Standard for pop, Raw for grittier genres. This gives each PMV a distinct feel even from the same clip library.

Use DJ Mode to audition songs quickly

If you're not sure which songs work best with your library, use DJ Mode to preview songs in real-time against your clips. It's a gapless live mixing mode - keyboard-driven energy tiers let you test different intensities instantly.
