Long Video Strategy
For videos longer than 15 seconds:
- Split the video into independent 15-second-or-shorter segments.
- Generate each segment with

- Load
editing-videos. - Use the video editing tool to concatenate the completed segments.
Keep prompts visually consistent across segments by repeating subject, style, lighting, camera language, and environment details.
