Render, length and quality
Turn your keyframes into the finished video. Choose 720p, 1080p or 4K, check the exact price, and understand when a pack's render is included.

Rendering turns each keyframe into a moving clip and cuts the clips to your song's beat as one finished video. It's the big step, so it always waits for you to press the button.
Render it
Open the render screen
Press Render video at the top of the project, or Render it for real on the rough cut.
Check the length
The render screen shows your keyframes and the length you chose in the brief, for example "Your 30 seconds".
Pick the quality
720p is the base quality, 1× the credits. 1080p costs 1.2× the credits and 4K 3×. You can pick any quality your balance covers.
Check the price and render
"Pricing…" shows while our servers work out the exact price for the exact shots you're rendering. The button then says Render and that number, or Render · included when your pack covers it. That number is what you pay.
What a render costs
For a 30 second video:
| Quality | Render |
|---|---|
| 720p | 552 credits |
| 1080p | 663 credits |
| 4K | 1,656 credits |
A pack's included render (earlier pack buyers)
Video packs are no longer sold; Melodious is sold as monthly plans. If you bought a video pack before plans replaced them, it still holds a render for you. It covers 720p; a higher quality is charged from your balance. It's used only when every shot in your chosen length has a keyframe: draw the rest with Fill everything on the rough cut, or Generate on each card. With shots still undrawn, the screen says Draw the remaining N shots to use your included render, or offers to render just the drawn shots from your spare credits.
Only drawn shots render
A shot without a keyframe can't be rendered. Draw every shot first if you want the full length.
