Notes:
Accepted file upload types are:
.ppt,.pptx,.pdf,.doc,.docxor.txtfiles.For file uploads there is a 50MB max size limit.
If you use the Script option, the number of scenes will be determined by the number of paragraphs in your script.
When uploading a PowerPoint to the AI Video Assistant, the speaker notes will also be used to generate the script.
AI Assist videos have a 5-minute limit. If you need to create longer content, you can either produce multiple videos or use the editor, which supports significantly longer video durations.
Once a draft is created using the AI Assistant and you enter the Editor or Generate, it becomes a regular video and can no longer be edited within the AI Assistant. At this point, you can either use the Edit with AI feature to make changes to the script or start a new video using the AI Assistant.
