What happens inside one AI-made episode: units, redos, versions and the cut

Inside an episode: six behaviours, 28 editors

Each page here takes one behaviour, redo charges say, and reads it across all 28 editors from their own pages. The pages below each one hold a single editor's wording in detail. As of 2026-09-25.

Start here with a question about the process rather than a product: can I redo one shot, do I keep the old version, who decides the cut.

The six behaviours run in the order an episode meets them: the unit it is built from, what a redo of that unit costs, whether the old one is kept, whether one unit can be redone alone, how units are joined, and whether the joined cut can still be changed.

An editor gets a detail page on a behaviour only where its pages say enough to fill one.

2From an episode pipeline

The episode pipeline SceneMixer documents has its own answer to “Inside an episode”; two lines from its pages:

Segments are numbered within their episode and the numbering is maintained for you when you insert or delete one.

SceneMixer, What Is Inside a Project — “Can I reorder segments?” (read 2026-10-13)

Typically 60–120 seconds, always 9:16 vertical, ending on a hook. SceneMixer's episode outlines are generated with that pacing, and setting a project to 9:16 makes every segment vertical (the default is 16:9).
