# Make clips with HeyGen Video 1
> Generate an AI video clip up to a minute long with HeyGen Video 1 in the HyperFrames Studio app, and put it straight into your project.
**HeyGen Video 1** generates one unbroken shot from a description, up to a minute long. The clip lands in your
project's files, and the agent places it on the timeline.
## Ask the agent for a clip
**1. Open Tools**
In the chat, type **#** to open **HyperFrames tools**, then pick **HeyGen Video 1**.
**2. Set the length**
Choose the length pill to open **Length in seconds**. A clip can be 5 to 60 seconds; it starts at 15.
**3. Describe the shot**
Say what happens, how the camera moves and how it should look, then send. The agent makes the clip and puts it on
the timeline.
You can steer the clip in the same message:
* **Start from a picture**: give an image and it becomes the clip's exact first frame.
* **Match a look**: give up to 9 reference images.
* **Copy a movement**: give one reference video of 5 seconds or less (trim a longer one first; the app refuses it), plus a picture of the person who should do the move. The clip is then one take of up to 15 seconds, with no start picture.
* **Shape**: 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1, at 480p or 768p (768p is the default).
## Or use Generate media
**Generate media** makes a clip without a chat message. Find it on an empty timeline, or in the words bar. Choose **Video**, pick the **Video 1** model,
set **Quality**, and add a **Start from** picture if you want one. This form makes clips of 5 to 15 seconds, in 16:9 or
9:16. The same form also offers **H3 Max** and **Seedance**.
## Change a clip you already have
Select a video in the preview and choose **Generate media** in the bar above it. Describe the change ("make it snow",
"turn it into a night scene") and choose **Make**. The bar shows what it will cost at most and what's left on your key
before you start.
*"Make it snow": HeyGen Video 1 whitened the roof and gave her a new movement, and the new clip lands in Media.
The wait is sped up.*
Keep the clip small: a 5-second 1080p file of 7.8 MB came back with **The references are too large to send**, while
the same shot at 720p went through.
## What it costs
In the chat, the agent makes the clip as soon as you ask, without a separate price check; the **Generate media**
form shows the price before you start. It is paid from your HyperFrames plan when
the plan covers it, otherwise from the HeyGen API credits on the key in **Settings**.
If a clip stops with **Out of API credits**, add credits in HeyGen and try again. If it asks you to set up your key,
add your HeyGen API key in **Settings**, or choose a plan.
