Cinematic-grade clips from a sentence

The top tier uses a full-size audio-video model. It is slower and costs the most per second, so this page is about spending those credits where they show.

What Cinematic adds

Three things separate Cinematic from Standard on the same prompt. Motion stays coherent for longer: a face, a vehicle or a building keeps its geometry through a full fifteen-second move instead of softening after a few seconds. Lighting behaves physically, with shadows that track the light source and reflections that follow the camera. And the generated sound is tighter, with footsteps, weather and ambience that line up with what is on screen.

The 1080p option is exclusive to this tier. At thirty credits per second it is the most expensive setting on the site, and most work does not need it: 720p Cinematic at twelve credits per second is the sweet spot for anything destined for a phone or a laptop screen.

Prompts that use the extra fidelity

Cinematic rewards prompts with texture and atmosphere. Rain, fog, smoke, water, fabric, skin and metal are where cheaper models wobble and this one holds. Specify film-language cues such as "anamorphic", "shallow depth of field", "35mm" or "long lens compression" and the model follows them with more discipline than the lower tiers.

Give it a reason to generate sound. A street at night with traffic, a stage with a band, a kitchen with something sizzling: scenes with obvious audio sources produce soundtracks that feel attached to the picture. A silent landscape will get ambient wind, which is fine but not the tier's strength.

  • Name the lens and depth of field when it matters
  • Describe one continuous camera move that spans the whole clip
  • Include an audio source in the scene if you want meaningful sound
  • Keep clip length to what the action needs; every second is billed

Protecting the budget

Never send a first-draft prompt straight to Cinematic. Render it on Draft for a credit per second, confirm the camera move and subject, and only then promote it. If you want evidence that the upgrade is worth it for a specific shot, queue a Standard-versus-Cinematic comparison at 720p and watch both.

Cinematic renders take four to eight minutes. The studio keeps polling while you wait, and if you close the tab the finished clip lands in your library. If the provider fails the render for a policy or outage reason, the credits are refunded automatically; a completed render that you simply dislike is not refundable, which is another argument for the Draft-first habit.

Delivery

Every finished clip is stored as an H.264 MP4 with a poster frame and a small preview, served from our media host. Download the file for editing, or make the clip public to give it a share page with video structured data for search engines.

Questions

How much does a ten-second 1080p Cinematic clip cost?
Three hundred credits, which is the whole Starter month or a little under a third of Studio. A ten-second 720p Cinematic clip is one hundred and twenty credits.
Is Cinematic always better than Standard?
On detailed, textured, atmospheric scenes, clearly. On simple graphic scenes the two are close and Standard is half the price. Run the comparison on your own prompt rather than assuming.
Can I turn off the generated sound?
Yes. Untick the sound option in the studio and the model renders picture only. The credit rate is unchanged.
What is the longest Cinematic clip?
Fifteen seconds. For longer pieces, render several clips with matching prompts and cut them together in an editor.
Who owns a Cinematic render?
You do, as set out at /terms-of-service: the service assigns you any output it produces at your direction. Because copyright rules for generated video vary by country, a lawyer is the right source for a definitive answer.
