Blueprints
Blueprints allow you train our AI to create videos that match your unique style. The more you use Blueprints, the better our AI gets at making videos that look and feel like the ones you’ve made before.
Structurally, your Blueprint will match elements like the voice and tone if your script, scene order, and what type of content is focused on. Style wise, your Blueprint will look at the type of scene designs that you select most often, what text & media choices you make, and what type of text gets highlighted.
Navigate to the Blueprints area of your dashboard, then click on New Blueprint in the top right corner.
A window will pop up that shows you your previous videos and asks you to select one to use for your Blueprint.
You'll then be taken to the page that shows you what theme the Blueprint uses, what narrative style video you can create with it, and the target duration of the video. Once you name the Blueprint and hit Create Blueprint, it'll appear in the Blueprints section of your account.
You can also turn an existing video into a Blueprint from the dashboard ... menu
Be sure to create separate blueprints for different video types! If you create an AI voiceover blueprint, for example, you won’t be able to use that same blueprint for a talking head video.
To create a video from a Blueprint, simply click on it from the Blueprints page.
You can also choose a Blueprint when you create a video from the dashboard by selecting it on the templates page.
Each time you create and publish a video from a Blueprint, that new video will be used to train the underlying Blueprint to be even smarter.
That means the more you use a Blueprint, the better the Lumen5 AI will get at generating videos that require fewer edits to get just right.
