# Doodle Intro

Reference-driven and built like an anime opening: you supply doodles that say who the character is, and it films a short, tightly edited montage of them — a couple of quick expression and pose cuts with kinetic timing, symbolic little touches, then a settle onto one bold key-visual hero pose. Expect a colour-script mood (golden-hour rim light, a twilight gradient), cel-shaded flat colour with hard-edged shadows, and an upbeat sparse sound bed with the final pose landing on the beat. Costs one credit per second, comes to life in the background, and lands in the chat in a few seconds.

## When to use it

Use when the user wants a title-sequence style reel starring their doodle character — "make it feel like an anime opening", "a montage of my character with a cool ending pose", "quick cuts that end on a key-visual pose", "an intro reel". The reference doodles fix the likeness, and the shot is a new, tightly edited montage that lands on a hero key visual. Anime opening STYLE, not any named character or show. Not for one gentle loop: that is doodle-daydream. Not for a single action shot: that is doodle-dash.

## How clips are billed

A clip costs 1 credit per second, so the default 5-second clip is 5 credits and the longest (15s) is 15. Rendering happens in the background and the clip appears in your chat when it is ready; if it fails, the credits are returned automatically.

## How to run it

- Ask for it by name — "Doodle Intro" — or let the agent pick it from your request.
- Refine in plain language afterwards: "thicker outline", "warmer paper".
