NoSpoon Studios: Getting Started with a Quick Walkthrough

going to quickly show you all today how to get started quickly and easily as well as all of the features available.

Up here at the top, you're going to see tabs for your character bank, your shot list, shot list history, your video history, and home. You're on the home tab. This is going to be your email

tab. This is going to be your email address or username. This is the number of credits that you currently have. And

this is the login and log out button.

So, here you can see our credit pricing.

We've added some more models as well.

top. You can click any of these to buy credit packs or choose your own amount.

The numbers are pretty self-explanatory.

So, as we get down here, we can see your credits more. Another option to purchase

credits more. Another option to purchase credits and a custom story prompt. You

don't have to put anything in any of these boxes. You can leave everything

these boxes. You can leave everything blank. Select your video model. We have

blank. Select your video model. We have

Sora, we have Luma, LTX2, VO2, VO3, Cling 01, and Cling 2.6. For

best results, I recommend Sora 2. Sora

2, LTX, and Cling as well as VO have dialogue options. Luma, uh, Ray Flash 2

dialogue options. Luma, uh, Ray Flash 2 and Ray 2 do not, and V2 does not.

Neither does CL 01. The rest, however, do.

So, that being said, the quickest and easiest way to get started is to do nothing and then just hit generate.

Short video is going to be four clips at 8 seconds each. A long video is going to be 20 clips at 8 seconds each. And then

you have a five minute episode, 10-minute episode, and 25 minute episode. Leave everything blank. Just

episode. Leave everything blank. Just

hit one of these buttons. You'll see

your generation progress and it will complete. And then your current video

complete. And then your current video will display at the bottom here. Once

that's done, sometimes this video will be gray because of the CDN caching. At

any rate, you can go to your history and you can view your video.

without any problems. You can download your scenes individually which are numbered and your original. You can also click import to shot list which will

take all of your video clips.

Import your scenes to the shot list section here. And then

if you click edit mode, you can edit each of these individually.

LTX2 retake. Describe what you want to change and what start and stop duration down to the seconds. Choose video,

audio, or both for what you want to change. Use cling vid to videdit.

change. Use cling vid to videdit.

Replace your characters with other characters. Take key frames and upload

characters. Take key frames and upload them as image one or image two in this section here.

Or use one place to replace with a character image. Um,

character image. Um, or use face fault. Best thing to do is to upload an image, not paste a URL. Uh,

and you'll see your versions below, as well as which model was used. When

you're done, you can click stitch final video, and it will restitch the final video with your edits together depending on which one you have clicked. And

you can rearrange the order, uncheck scenes you don't want. As you get all of your scenes,

want. As you get all of your scenes, you'll see more. When you drag and drop all of these, and then click stitch, select the videos, it'll drag and drop in that order and give you a final video, which you can look at in your

video history.

So, that's how to edit scenes that you already have. If you want to go that

already have. If you want to go that route, you don't have to do that.

Anyway, that being said, um the best advice is to choose Sora 2 and then a custom genre. We have great custom genres here that are all really

weird and fun and cool and give the best results in my personal opinion. Um you can create your custom agent this way by typing in your genre name and

description. Say what you want. Get as

description. Say what you want. Get as

specific as you want or as vague as you want. This will create a custom genre at

want. This will create a custom genre at the very bottom of the genre list that you can use. You can use this with your screenplay uploads. You can use this

screenplay uploads. You can use this with your character references.

Um, you can use any LTX cling or Sora model with the custom genre agents. So,

if you want to use a character reference, we do not have that support for Sora at the moment, but we do for LTX2 fast and clean image to video. So,

you can add from your character bank.

Just head into your character bank, which I'll show you in a moment. To add

your characters, use Nano Banana Pro.

Check that box. It's the best way to go.

And then you can just leave it blank and it'll put your character into it, right?

Or for best results, upload a new screenplay. You can check for a title

screenplay. You can check for a title card here. Map these characters to your

card here. Map these characters to your screenplay. Don't select all of these,

screenplay. Don't select all of these, just the ones you want. This is totally optional. Usually, it will just do its

optional. Usually, it will just do its own thing. Put a custom lighting style

own thing. Put a custom lighting style if you'd like and um go from there. The other way to do the character reference is to uncheck that

and then check here and do something like this to keep your character bank outfits or leave that blank to let AI red decide. This basically does the same

decide. This basically does the same thing. Both of these kind of do the same

thing. Both of these kind of do the same thing, but this is slightly more advanced because it's a slightly different route in the code. So, I

recommend going that way. And then these are just the segments of each clip with LTX2 fast 1080p 2K and 4K. And like I

said, we also have Cling 2.6 or VO for this. Uh, so that's what I recommend is

this. Uh, so that's what I recommend is choosing your custom agent genre, going this route, like once you pick your character, optionally map it to a screenplay if you have a screenplay that

you've uploaded. Otherwise, if you don't

you've uploaded. Otherwise, if you don't have a screenplay, just select your character reference and go from there. Um,

so if you use Ray 2 or Ray Flash 2, you can add sound effects, background music, um, screen plays, character reference, and

style reference, but it's not as advanced. So, I highly recommend

advanced. So, I highly recommend sticking with Sora. Personally, that's

the best that we've got so far. And Sora

2 is really good with a screenplay upload. When you have a screenplay,

upload. When you have a screenplay, um, preview your page range here to see the entirety of what you want generated.

If you pick 70 pages and do a short video, those four clips are going to summarize all 70 of those pages you selected as best it can into the four clips by 8 seconds each. You do 25

minute episode, it's going to do its best to tell the story of those 70 pages you selected within that 25 minute range. This means if you only do page

range. This means if you only do page one to page two, let's just say, and you preview that page range, which you'll see the story here and

where it starts and stops. This is going to try to do 25 minutes of just that range. It's going to try to be as

range. It's going to try to be as specific to your range as it can.

Traditionally, one page of a screenplay is one page of filming. You might want to think about that a little bit, but our text parsing kind of does things slightly differently. So, the page

slightly differently. So, the page ranges may not quite add up to that. The

agent is smart enough to know the best way to tell the story in the constraints and time that it has. So, it will do a great job. Sometimes there may be

great job. Sometimes there may be dialogue or scenes that were slightly missing. That's because the agent tried

missing. That's because the agent tried to tell the best story it could in the amount of time it was given if it felt like it was going to go over this. So,

you kind of want to try to um give a range that you know will do well within 25 minutes, 10 minutes, 5 minutes, etc. But, you know, you can play around with it. If you choose a custom genre, like

it. If you choose a custom genre, like let's say cartoon style with this, it's going to make it into that cartoon style. If you want to go horror

style. If you want to go horror firsterson, it'll take your script and change it into first person horror. This

also does the same for the LTX and cling um models as well. So if you put yourself into the screenplay or your characters into the screenplay and then do first person horror or whatever it might be, it'll actually put them into

the story for you as well. So like if we went here and we did a screenplay preview and we wanted to use characters.

If I didn't say anything, but I just selected these two, it would fit it into my screenplay. And it would be smart

my screenplay. And it would be smart enough if I, let's say, just selected me and the lead was a male character and it was only a male character, it would know to gender swap me with that male character and reimagine my screenplay as

such with those parameters and first person horror. So, it's a good way to

person horror. So, it's a good way to mix and match your content or reimagine time periods, genders, genres, lighting, outfits, you name it. And you can create

your own custom genre if you like certain pacing or certain lenses or certain directors or maybe anime or comic books or whatever it might be. So

that's something to think about. Um

we're rapidly trying to improve LTX2 fast and cling 2.6 as well as the VIA models for this. But even though Sora we cannot do character reference 4 just as

yet, it still really just is the best.

So, if you work with Sora and then go into your video history and incorporate stuff into the shot list as I showed you, that's a great way to reinsert yourself into the film afterwards when you have clips. Or if you get clips and

sometimes it's slightly inconsistent because of the lack of character face ups with the Sora API, you can always take a screenshot of some of your favorite characters from your original

scenes that it might have run and then swap those. We'll have more workflows

swap those. We'll have more workflows for this soon that will make your life easier. But this is sort of the easiest

easier. But this is sort of the easiest way to get in here. If you do custom background music upload, upload your track, choose your model, and just hit go and this will generate. And uh if you

don't want to leave it all to chance, you don't have to put any input little or as much as you want. You can come over here to the shot list planner.

Describe your story if you want. Choose

your lighting preset. Choose your genre if you want or put a custom genre in.

Pick between nano banana or flux context. Uh, optionally choose

context. Uh, optionally choose character, location, product or seed as your main image type. You just have to upload one main image. You don't have to do anything else or select anything else. And just hit go four or 20 shots

else. And just hit go four or 20 shots and it'll generate a cinematic shot list. You can add up to five characters,

list. You can add up to five characters, locations, products, mix and match. This

will tell you how to name it, what it is.

best results are to name your characters and upload it that way and just let it kind of do its thing. We also have color grading.

So, that's a little bit more um experimental at this moment, but it's pretty cool. You can choose a video to

pretty cool. You can choose a video to color grade if you'd like. Choose a L preset, upload your own cube file, put a style modifier on it and plain text if you

want. Use the style modifier only. try

want. Use the style modifier only. try

one of these and uh go that way. If you

do this, all of these color grading sliders here will be applied to your video. So, if you know what you're doing

video. So, if you know what you're doing when it comes to color grading and you want to put all of this together, you can. I always recommend doing a subject

can. I always recommend doing a subject detection of foreground. Choose your

lens simulation and film grain type. I

would do basic face enhancement usually to be honest and like adjust from there.

Um, if you hit manual color grading and you know what you're doing here with these channels, go for it and then that'll apply to your video. This was

originally intended to not be used for video. So, uh, I mean it works for

video. So, uh, I mean it works for video, it's just still experimental. It

is experimental for images as well, but I I recommend doing this for your images too. So you

can also upload a reference image for color grading matching which is optional.

If you don't use the video to color grade here, just select all of this after having chosen your main image and uploaded it here. You'll see your main image kind of at the bottom. Uh you can

just see you'll see your main image preview. Hit generate shot list and each

preview. Hit generate shot list and each of these will show your original images and then the color graded images over them in a toggle. You don't have to go through all these settings. If you just leave this blank, it will try to determine the best setting and you can

optionally like put in little things here. So, this is kind of a way to get

here. So, this is kind of a way to get as intense with your color grading as you want if you want to try that. Um, we

also have first person mode with nano banana, which means you'll see what your agent is thinking and feeling. Upload

your references and characters. It will

choose objects, characters, and locations that you upload on its own.

It'll show you its thoughts right in here as it's thinking through the story and it will be actually become your character to prompt in first person as your character.

So you'll see in your shot list history here the agent's thoughts and these thoughts and its decisions through the

story from my uploaded character became this sequence. If you want to hit save

this sequence. If you want to hit save card, these little cards here, show the agents thought at the very bottom

in the text if you want to share the thoughts on social media. Uh you can choose all your aspect ratios and more.

But this is a pretty cool way to do some interesting things. And

you're just kind of seeing some experiments in here. Anytime you want to edit your old shots, you can just hit edit. come in here

edit. come in here and just type in what you'd like to see differently and you'll see your versions. Then you can make videos using

versions. Then you can make videos using any of these. You can even use your next shot as an end frame. Upload your own frame, custom prompt, include audio or

not, landscape, duration, all of it.

You'll get your price when you choose.

And then you can generate videos. New

videos will show which you can then stitch into a final video as well. You

can pick your image model um here. So if you choose an banana,

um here. So if you choose an banana, that's what it will be. You can also pick it here. So it is standard flex and you can go from there. Then stitch

it into your final video. Your character

bank here is where you can create a new character or add old characters.

Choose your character's emoji, ethnicity, name, hair color, gender, description, all of this, and then hit save. And this is where your character

save. And this is where your character bank of characters will live. So when

you go back to the homepage, if you're using LTX or cling or VO and you want to use your character reference, it'll be right here. And you

can select. We'll have more options to add more in this soon. But the

screenplay upload with Anna Banana Pro and then checking this way gets the best results generally. You can also click

results generally. You can also click generate episode title card with LTX2.

Put in your episode name if you'd like and it'll generate a fifth scene with that as the main. Uh, black and white film noir does very well here if you want to change up your lighting or say

anything there. And lastly, you can call

anything there. And lastly, you can call a Mega Claw to generate array to array flash to video just by talking to him.

You have to have credits to do that. You

can't connect to VO or anything else yet. This is kind of an older voice

yet. This is kind of an older voice agent to video that will be updating soon, but Omega Claw is crazy and a lot of fun.

So, that's the current lay of the land.
