Generate the shots you didn't film
Describe the shot and Selects makes it: the drone pass, the night drive, the product on a clean surface. It lands on the timeline next to your real footage, ready to cut.
Launch videos,
without the production budget.
Generate the shots you didn't film, animate the titles from a sentence,
and cut the 30, the 15 and the vertical in one pass.

Prompt: Have Claude cut the three launch takes into a 15s teaser and hand it to Premiere for our motion designer
Prompt: Use this channel's cold open structure. Five seconds of build before the first word, end on READY?
Prompt: Match the pacing and cuts of this Reel. My clips are the mascara and skin close-ups, keep the serif titles on the open
Each one made by Selects from the prompt under it.
The launch date is set.
The shot list isn't.
Every launch needs the same pile of video: a hero spot, a 15-second cutdown, a vertical for Reels, a six-second bumper, titles in the brand type, and captions for everyone watching on mute. Usually by the end of the week.
And there is always a shot missing. The product on a clean surface, the city at night, the angle nobody thought to get. A reshoot costs a day you don't have, and stock footage looks like stock footage.
So the video ships late, or it ships thin. Selects fills the gaps and cuts every version, and your team spends the week on the idea instead of the export queue.
Generated shots, motion graphics,
and every cut the launch needs
New angles from one camera
Shot the demo on a single camera? Ask for a close-up, a side profile or a wider view of the same take, and the cut has somewhere to go.
Motion graphics from a sentence
"Every time I say a number, put it on screen." Titles, callouts and animated text, made from what you ask for rather than dragged out of a template.
Same launch. Every version by Friday.

FAQ
Do I need to shoot anything?
Not always. Selects can generate shots from a description and build a video around them.
Most launch videos mix the two: your real product footage, with generated shots filling the gaps.
Can it match our brand?
Describe the look of your titles and captions once, the typeface, the colours and the size, and every version uses it. Anything it gets wrong, you change by hand on the timeline.
How do I get the 15 and 6 second versions?
Ask for them. Each length and aspect ratio comes back as its own edit, so you can check that the six-second version still lands on the product.
Can our motion designer take it from here?
- Select a timeline in Selects.
- Click the Continue in Premiere / Handoff button in the top right corner.
- An Adobe Premiere project file is created for your designer to keep working in.
Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve hand off the same way.
Can I change the edit after Selects makes it?
Yes. Every result is a regular Selects project on a real timeline. Change any cut, caption or graphic by hand, or keep giving notes in chat the way you would to an editor.
Can I add captions in other languages?
Yes. Ask for captions in the language you need, and say how they should look.
