Overview

After generation, treat assets like any other timeline clip: trim, retime, layer, and polish. Use this guide to make generated content feel native to the rest of your project. [insert screenshot of generated clip selected in timeline with trim, speed, and overlay controls]

Before you start

  • Insert generated media into the correct scene.
  • Identify what still feels off: pacing, framing, clarity, or style mismatch.
  • Keep one alternate variation available for replacement.

Steps

  1. Trim clip boundaries to remove weak lead-in/out frames.
  2. Retime sections where motion pacing conflicts with narration.
  3. Add overlays that clarify context (labels, arrows, short callouts).
  4. Align style (color/motion/audio tone) with surrounding scenes.
  5. Preview full sequence and confirm generated clip does not stand out negatively.

Check your result

  • Generated content blends with project style.
  • Scene pacing remains consistent.
  • Viewer can understand purpose without extra explanation.

Troubleshooting

Generated scene still feels disconnected

Either simplify local styling to match project baseline or swap to an alternate variation.

Motion conflicts with narration timing

Retiming and strategic cuts usually solve this faster than regenerating everything.

Quality drops after heavy edits

Return to source variation and make smaller, scene-specific edits.
