Scenes

Scenes are the fundamental units of your video project in Dal Nulla. Represented as nodes in the Graph Editor, each scene generates a video clip based on your text prompt and connected references.

Inspector Controls

When you select a Scene Node, the Inspector Panel on the right allows you to fine-tune the generation:

1. Prompt

  • Input: A text area to describe the action, style, and content of the video scene.
  • Linked Prompt: If a Text Node is connected, its content appears here. You can Detach it to edit the prompt independently or Expand the editor for more space.

2. Negative Prompt

  • Input: Specify what you don’t want to see in the video (e.g., “blur”, “distortion”, “text”).

3. Generation Settings

  • Model: Choose between Pro (higher quality) and Fast (quicker generation). Note: The ‘Fast’ model may not support reference images.
  • Duration: Select the length of the video clip (e.g., 2s, 4s).
  • Resolution: Set the output resolution (720p, 1080p).
  • Aspect Ratio: Define the video’s aspect ratio (16:9, 9:16, etc.).

4. Media Inputs (Modes)

Use the toggle to switch between two ways of controlling visuals:

  • Refs (References):
    • Allows connecting up to 3 Reference Images.
    • The AI blends these images to influence the style and content.
  • Frames:
    • Allows setting a specific Start Frame and/or End Frame.
    • The AI animates the transition between these exact images.
    • Note: Switching to Frames mode limits you to 2 inputs.

5. Context Settings

  • Use Project Global Context: A checkbox to opt-in/out of the project’s global text and reference nodes. Uncheck this if you want the scene to be completely independent of the rest of the story.

6. Version History

  • History List: Every time you generate a scene, the previous version is saved here.
  • Restore: Click a history item to revert the scene to that specific video and prompt.

Actions

  • Generate Scene: Starts the AI video generation process.
  • Download Video: Saves the current video clip to your device.
  • Delete Scene: Removes the node from the canvas.
