How long can a Watercolor Storybook explainer be?

On paid plans, up to 10 minutes as a regular video with chapters, or 20 to 60 seconds as a vertical Short. A one-minute video takes about two minutes to make.

Can I edit the video after it is made?

Yes. It opens in the video editor, where you can change the text, icons and timing of any board, redo a board with a note, and export in up to 4K.

Can I make it in another language?

Yes. Pick the language before you generate, or translate a finished video: the Video Agent remakes it with a native narrator.
