import { HoverVideo } from "/snippets/hover-video.jsx";

import { DocsVideo } from "/snippets/docs-video.jsx";

Type one sentence on Home and choose **Let's go**. The agent may ask a question or two, shows you the video as stills,
and builds it when you approve.

*Recorded with Claude Code as the agent. The waits play fast: the storyboard took 29 minutes and the
build 10.*

## What happens

<HoverVideo className="hf-aside hf-spot" src="https://static.heygen.ai/hyperframes-oss/docs/studio-demos/storyboard-tab-v2.mp4" poster="/public/images/studio-app/spots/storyboard-tab-v2.jpg" hasAudio={false} label="The Storyboard tab above the preview" />

<Steps>
  <Step title="Say what you want">
    In **Make something**, describe the video ("A 12-second launch teaser for Lumen, a running shoe that glows at
    night"). Add files with **+**, or start from a video you like in **Reference**.
  </Step>
  <Step title="Answer its questions">
    When something matters and you didn't say it, the agent asks with a card: which of three concepts, how the
    product should look, or whether to use your own image. Pick one (the agent marks the one it recommends), or choose
    **Something else…** and type, then **Send answer**.
  </Step>
  <Step title="Approve the storyboard">
    With **Start with a storyboard** on (the default), you see every shot as a still with its timing in the
    **Storyboard** tab. Tell it which frame to change, or choose **Build the video**.
  </Step>
  <Step title="Watch, then change it">
    The finished video plays in **Preview**. Change anything by saying it, pointing at it or drawing on it:
    [edit a video with the agent](/studio-app/edit-with-the-agent).
  </Step>
</Steps>

If you aren't signed in or have no agent yet, the app walks you through that first and then sends your request.

<Card title="Practice it: The brief" icon="graduation-cap" href="https://hyperframes.heygen.com/lessons/the-brief">
  Free 20-minute lesson with a short video, a quiz and a brief to try. A brief is the goal, who it is for, two to four specifics and the exact words in quotes.
</Card>

## Or take the step by step

**Take the step by step**, next to **Remix from inspiration** on Home, builds a launch video from four parts taken
from real launch videos. It also opens by itself the very first time.

<Frame caption="The first-video card: four parts, then your website or idea.">
  <img
    src="/public/images/studio-app/first-video.jpg"
    alt="The Create your first video card with Hook, Proof, Turn and Call to action slots and a field for your website or idea"
  />
</Frame>

| Part | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| **Hook** | Grab attention in the first seconds |
| **Proof** | Show the product doing its job |
| **Turn** | Flip from problem to answer |
| **Call to action** | Land the brand and the ask |

Shuffle the parts until you like them, type your website (it gives the agent your fonts, colors and logo) or an idea,
and choose **Use this cut**.
