## FAQ

### Can I turn a text prompt into a TikTok reel automatically?

Yes. Reelry takes a text prompt - a topic, idea, or description - and automatically generates a complete TikTok reel. The AI pipeline writes a script, creates illustrated visuals, animates them, adds voiceover, and assembles the final 9:16 vertical video. No manual editing is involved.

### How long does it take to generate a TikTok reel from text?

Under 5 minutes for a standard animated reel. You spend approximately 10 seconds entering your text prompt and selecting preferences. The AI pipeline handles the remaining work: script writing, image generation, animation, voiceover synthesis, and video assembly.

### What kind of text prompts work best?

Topic descriptions work well: '5 morning routine habits for productivity', 'why introverts make better leaders', 'scary story about a haunted lighthouse'. You can be brief ('cat facts') or specific ('3 psychological pricing tricks used by luxury brands'). The AI adapts the script structure to your prompt.

### Can I edit the AI-generated script before the video is made?

Yes. After the script is generated, you can review and edit it before the visual pipeline runs. You can also regenerate individual frames after the initial generation if specific scenes don't match your vision.

### What video format does Reelry output?

Reelry outputs 9:16 vertical video (1080x1920 pixels) in MP4 format. This is the native format for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook Reels. Videos include the animated visual frames, voiceover narration, text captions, and optional background music.
