Creating Your First Video
A complete walkthrough from opening the Studio to downloading a finished vertical video.
On this page
Open the Creator Studio
From the dashboard, click "Launch Engine" (or go straight to the Studio). The Studio opens with the live canvas in the center and the settings panel down the side. The canvas is the hero — everything you change in the panel updates on it in real time.
The Studio: live canvas on the left, settings panel on the right.
Pick a Mode and Press Play
In the settings panel, open the SIM tab. The "Core Logic" section at the top has the Simulation Type selector — a horizontal strip of modes. Pick one (Rhythmic is a great first choice), then press the Spacebar to play and pause the simulation.
- 1Open the SIM tab in the settings panel.
- 2In "Core Logic", choose a mode from the Simulation Type strip.
- 3Press Spacebar (or the play control) to start the simulation.
- 4Press Spacebar again to pause and study the result.
Tweak One Thing
You do not need to touch all 1,000+ parameters to get a good result. Open the PHYSICS tab and adjust a single value — for example, raise or lower gravity, or change the bounce energy — and watch how it changes the feel of the loop. Make small changes and replay often.
Use Ctrl+Z to undo and Ctrl+Y (or Ctrl+Shift+Z) to redo while you experiment. You cannot break anything — the Reset to Defaults option in the SIM tab always brings you back to a clean state.
Add Sound
Open the AUDIO tab to give your bounces sound. In Rhythmic mode you can pick a melody from the library so each collision plays the next note. In any mode you can choose impact chimes. Make sure your volume is up before you record — the audio is captured into the final video.
Record in Vertical
Open the REC (Recorder) tab. Set the aspect ratio to 9:16 for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts, choose a resolution, and press record. Let the loop run for the length you want, then stop. The Free plan records at 720p with a watermark; Pro unlocks 1080p, 2K, 4K and removes the watermark.
- 1Open the REC tab.
- 2Set aspect ratio to 9:16 (Vertical).
- 3Choose a resolution (720p on Free; 1080p/2K/4K on Pro).
- 4Press record, let the loop run, then press stop.
- 5Download the file — it saves as .mp4 or .webm.
The Video tab — set resolution, aspect ratio, and frame rate, then record.
Save Your Setup
Open the DATA tab to save your configuration. Local saves stay in this browser; cloud saves (on a paid plan) are tied to your account so you can reload them on any device. Save the setup you just built so you can iterate on it later.
