Rate limits apply. When live generation is unavailable, it returns a deterministic template. Video generation is a separate studio action. ### What should I provide to the Free Short-Form Video Hook — topic → openings (no signup)? Product, topic, or clip is the starting point. For example: a 15-second protein shake you will cut for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. Add the audience, tone, and goal to make the draft relevant. ### How do I review the video hooks? Read the opening aloud. It should make one clear promise that the rest of your video delivers; remove claims you cannot demonstrate. ### Does this publish or generate a video? No. Review and copy the text first. Opening a studio starts a separate workflow; it does not transfer this draft or submit a generation. ## Turn this into a free short Generate a draft here, then choose **Turn this into a free short**. The draft becomes the topic of a Topic Short: a voiced, captioned faceless short. Eligible new accounts get one free Topic Short ([open Topic Shorts](https://clipstudio.ai/clips/new/topic)). ## Start a Story Copy your draft, then paste a story or script into Clip Studio Story.
