How many units make a one-minute episode?
It depends on the unit. Higgsfield returns a generation of up to one minute as one assembled scene; with 15-second segments, as SceneMixer uses, a minute is four; with DomoAI's runs of up to 30 seconds, it can be two. StoryShort offers one-minute episodes and gives no scene count. From 4 source pages, read 2026-09-25 to 2026-10-25; no maker pays to be listed.

2For the cutting room
The count matters for cost and for continuity: every unit is a generation to pay for and a join to get right.
