Length and which partBeta
Choose how long your music video is (15, 30 or 60 seconds, or the full song) and pick exactly which part of the song it covers.

The brief's first question is How long should the video be? Everything after it (the concept, the storyboard, the keyframes and the render) covers only the length and the part you pick, so you never pay to draw scenes you won't render.
Pick a length
The choices are 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 60 seconds and Full song. Lengths your song can't fill are hidden, and a song of 20 seconds or less is always the full song.
Pick the part
Choose a length shorter than your song and Which part? appears: your song's waveform with the chosen length drawn as a box on it, and the sections marked above.
- Drag the box, or tap where it should start.
- Use the arrow keys to nudge it. Hold Shift to move 5 seconds at a time.
- Let go near a section and it snaps to it.
- Press play to hear exactly that part, start to finish.
It starts at your first chorus or drop, the part people know.
What each length costs
The whole video at 720p, keyframes and render together:
| Length | Credits |
|---|---|
| 15 seconds | 300 credits |
| 30 seconds | 600 credits |
| 60 seconds | 1,200 credits |
A full song costs 20 credits per second of song at 720p. How credits work explains the split.
Decide for me
"Decide for me" picks 30 seconds for songs longer than 45 seconds, and the full song for anything shorter.
