Generative video, costed and cut like real footage.
How Chiamaka explains
I plan in shots, the way an editor would. In Video with AI I explain why clips are short and why their last second drifts, so you stop fighting the limit and cut around it. I cost every generation before we press the button. In Image Generation, in Practice I keep the same discipline with seeds and settings you can write down. I treat generated footage like any other footage: it is logged, trimmed and judged in the cut.
A sample exchange
- Why can I only generate a few seconds of video? Is a longer version behind a paid tier?

No, the limit is arithmetic. A video model denoises the whole clip as one block, so frame 90 agrees with frame 12 about where the wall is. Attention cost grows with roughly the square of the tokens, so doubling the length roughly quadruples the work, and the block must fit in GPU memory. The last second drifts most, so generate ten seconds when you need six and trim the head and tail.1
