How to Edit AI Videos Scene by Scene in ToMotion

The scene editor helps you refine a video you have already generated in ToMotion. You can correct a visual detail, reveal a diagram at a more useful moment, or adjust a region that is cutting off part of an illustration. Start with one specific correction so you can judge whether the result solves it.

This workflow edits scene visuals and their relationship to the existing narration. An AI request to change a heading in the picture does not also rewrite the voiceover. Listen to the narration when checking a correction: the spoken explanation and the visible information should still agree.

Sign in to the account that owns the video and open Library. Choose a completed video that has the Edit option. A desktop browser gives you room to work with the canvas, narration timeline, and object controls together.

Keep one editing tab for the video while you work. If you already exported an edited version, use the latest export when continuing the edit; earlier exports are available for viewing rather than continuing a separate edit branch.

Work from the scene you selected, not just the video's title. Before changing anything, look at its illustration and read the accompanying narration. This makes it easier to choose the correct object and avoid editing a similar-looking item in another scene.

Select the object on the canvas and inspect the outline around it. Drag its corner handles to include the artwork that belongs to that object. Leave enough room for lettering, arrowheads, and the edges of a diagram without unnecessarily including a neighboring visual.

Think of the boundary as the region the animation can reveal. Moving or enlarging that region is not the same as moving or redrawing the underlying illustration. If you want a different visual or a different placement of the artwork itself, make an AI object edit and then check the region again.

For example, if a label ends outside its outline, the last letters may be missing from the rendered animation. Expand the boundary to cover the complete label, then preview the scene. The static canvas alone is not enough to confirm the final reveal.

Choose the phrase that introduces the visual. A diagram about solar panels is easier to follow when its reveal begins with the relevant explanation, rather than while the voice is still introducing a different topic.

The start and end words define the object's animation interval. Do not assume the end word means the object will disappear at that moment; review the rendered scene to judge the actual reveal and what remains visible.

Use a new object when another part of the scene needs its own reveal area and timing. Right-click the canvas and choose New object. Position its boundary over the intended area and resize it carefully.

Creating an object region does not automatically draw a new illustration inside it. A region over empty space still needs artwork. If you want to add a new visual, describe that change in the object's AI prompt and apply the update before judging the animation.

Select the object, open its context menu, and choose Edit to work in the Edit objects panel. State the change directly: what should be different, the exact replacement text if any, and which visual qualities should stay consistent.

A focused instruction is easier to evaluate than a broad request such as 'make this better.' For a heading correction, specify the exact heading. For a diagram, identify the component or relationship that needs changing. Review spelling and factual accuracy after every generated result.

These are sample requests, not guaranteed outputs. Replace the subjects with the details in your own scene, attach the correct objects, and inspect the result. When an edit affects the explanation, check the existing narration too.

An updated illustration may occupy a different area even when you requested only a small correction. A longer heading, a new arrow, or a changed shape can extend beyond its previous boundary. Inspect all affected regions, including neighboring objects, before moving on.

Make sure the intended artwork sits inside a region that can reveal it. If part of the image looks correct on the canvas but is missing in the animation, compare that missing part with the region outline first. Then check whether the object's narration interval is assigned.

Use Save draft and wait for confirmation before leaving the editor or switching devices. A Saved on this device message refers to local draft storage; it is not the same as confirming a server save with Save draft.

Choose Render preview when the selected scene is ready. Read the confirmation before continuing. If a prompt has not been applied, return to editing and use Update object first. Choosing Render without prompt previews the current artwork, without the pending AI request.

When processing finishes, play the rendered scene with sound. Look for complete labels, clean reveals, correct narration timing, and unintended changes to nearby visuals. Processing time can vary, so wait for the job to finish instead of submitting repeated requests.

Choose Export video after you have checked the changed scenes. The Review your export dialog summarizes the export, including changed and original scenes. Make sure those counts match the work you intended to include.

Resolve any unapplied prompts before confirming if you want those requests included. Export without prompts uses the artwork already applied; it does not silently run the remaining AI edits.

Confirm Export video and wait for completion. The editor charges 10 credits after a successful export. Watch the complete exported video afterward to check scene transitions and the final explanation, not just the individual previews.

Return to Library and open the video. Use its version selector to view the original and exported versions. Your original is retained, which lets you compare the explanation before and after editing.

The latest export is the version to use when continuing edits. Earlier exports are marked View only. If the editor asks you to open the latest export, return to the video's current version instead of continuing in an older tab.

Check which version is selected before downloading or sharing a file. Downloading an already-ready export again is free; creating another successful export is a separate editing action.

Budget for AI artwork updates and the final export separately. Complete related corrections, inspect boundaries, and use scene previews before committing to a new export. Review the credit amount shown in the editor before confirming an update or export.

Start with the message shown in the editor and the specific scene that needs attention. Fix one cause, preview again, and then decide whether another change is necessary.
