How to Make a Multi-Scene AI Film: Plan the Scenes, Write One Script Each, Assemble

To make a multi-scene AI film, open Mint Studio, switch the prompt card from Single clip to Multi-scene, write the idea in a sentence, set the number and length of the scenes, press AI Scenes to write one full script per scene, generate, and press Merge scenes when the scenes are filmed. A film has 2 to 12 scenes; the writer costs 1 credit per scene, and the studio shows the whole price before you generate.

We build ReelMint, an AI studio that generates videos, images and music and posts them to TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and X. A single AI clip is a few seconds long. A story needs several shots that agree with each other: the same people, the same clothes, the same place. This post is how Mint Studio plans, films and assembles that, and where the limits are.

Step by step

1. Pick a video model. In Mint Studio, choose Text to Video and a model. Each model has its own clip lengths, and each scene is one clip.
2. Switch to Multi-scene. The prompt card starts you with two scene cards. Add scenes up to 12 and remove any above two.
3. Write the idea. The main box is now the idea the AI writes your scenes from: "a lighthouse keeper finds a message in a bottle and rows out to answer it". Type @ to cast one of your characters; a cast member rides every scene.
4. Set each scene's length. Every scene card has its own length picker, using the lengths the model films. A 40-second film can be four scenes of 10 seconds.
5. Fill the presets first. Visual style, camera, spoken language and subtitles. The writer reads them, and a script written for a bare setup is less accurate.
6. Press AI Scenes. It writes every scene from the idea, one full script per scene, each continuing from the last, sized to the scene's length and the model's prompt budget. It costs 1 credit per scene. Each script has the world, characters, dialogue, timing, camera, performance, audio and the final image.
7. Read and edit. Change any script by hand, or press Rescript (3 credits) on one scene for a fresh take that keeps the rest of the story intact.
8. Check the review and generate. The Ready to generate panel lists what the render will use: model, scenes and total length, presets, language, subtitles and cast. The button shows the total credits.
9. Merge. Scenes film in order and you can watch each one appear. When they are ready, untick in the merge on any scene you want to leave out and press Merge scenes.

How scenes stay continuous

The Scene continuity setting decides how each scene connects to the one before:

• Video (strict, the default): scenes film one after another and the next scene is filmed from the previous clip, plus your cast's reference pictures. It costs more, because the previous clip is part of the input, and the quote includes it.
• Frame: the last usable frame of the previous scene is pinned as the next scene's first frame.
• Off: every scene is filmed independently and at the same time, sharing only the story and the references. It is the fastest and the loosest.

Behind it, the studio builds a story bible for the film: who each character is, what they wear, where each location is, and how each scene must start and end. Scenes join on hard cuts, and each opens where the last ended: same place, pose and light. A character's clothes are part of their look and do not change between scenes; a different outfit is a different look you make on the character and select when you cast them. See the characters tutorial.

Fixing one scene without refilming the film

When the film pauses (stopped, failed or scenes ready), each scene has a Regenerate button that refilms only that scene from its current script, priced on the button. Only that scene is billed. Because later scenes continued from the old ending, they are then marked CONTINUITY STALE, so you know which ones to refilm for a clean join.

What a film costs

A film costs its clips plus a little writing: each scene is priced as a clip on your model and length, the AI Scenes writer adds 1 credit per scene, and subtitles, a soundtrack or an upscale pass are added if you choose them. On the cheaper video models a 10-second 720p clip is 45 to 90 credits, so a four-scene, 40-second film starts at a few hundred credits. The credits guide has the arithmetic, and the cheapest AI video generator page lists the low-cost models. Lite is $9.99 a month for 800 credits; Starter is $29 for 2,600. Every plan runs every model.

Extras that ride along

• Subtitles in a language you pick, burned into the video.
• A speaking character: a face in a corner of the film reading a line in their voice, lip-synced, in any language.
• Recutting: a merged film opens into its scenes in your Library, and each scene is available in Video Edit's Scenes tab, so you can reorder, trim or add music and export a new cut. See the video edit tutorial.

Honest limits

• References steer; they do not guarantee. No current video model returns an identity-locked face. Cast references and the previous clip keep a character close across scenes, but a face can still drift. Regenerate the scene that slipped.
• 12 scenes per film. For something longer, make two films and join them in Video Edit.
• Strict continuity is sequential. Scene 3 cannot start until scene 2 exists, so a long strict film takes longer than an independent one.
• Merging is your call. Scenes are not merged automatically; nothing is assembled until you press Merge scenes, and every press makes a new film without touching the scenes.

Can I write the scenes myself?

Yes. Type each scene's script into its card and skip AI Scenes. Restate the world and the characters fully in each one, because each scene is filmed from its own card.

What is the difference between AI Prompt and AI Scenes?

On a single clip, AI Prompt writes the complete script for that clip. On a multi-scene film, AI Prompt sharpens the idea, and AI Scenes writes the scenes from it.

How do I make my first single clip before trying a film?

Start with your first AI video or the text to video tutorial; the film flow is the same studio with more scene cards.

Can I post the film straight away?

Yes. The merged film is a Library video: press Share to publish or schedule it to every connected channel.
