Instead of animating shots one by one, you can animate multiple shots at once — either by asking the chat after your video is created, or by turning on Auto-Animate before you even generate it.
Auto-Animate from the start
You can turn on Auto-Animate in the prompt box when you first start your video. This automatically animates every shot as soon as your video is generated, instead of creating stills first and animating them separately.
This is a good option if:
-
You're confident in your prompt and expect the shots to come out close to what you want on the first try
-
You want to move quickly and skip a manual review-and-animate step
Keep in mind: since every shot animates automatically, you'll spend credits on all of them right away — including any shots you might have wanted to change first. If you'd rather review stills before committing credits to animation, skip Auto-Animate and animate shots individually or in a batch afterward.
Animate in the editor using the chat
If you didn't use Auto-Animate, you can still animate multiple shots at once by asking the chat:
-
"Animate all shots"
-
"Animate shots 1, 3, and 5"
-
"Animate all shots that don't have animation yet"
Hypernatural will queue and animate each shot using your selected animation model.
Note on credits
Each shot costs credits based on the model used. Animating multiple shots at once — whether through Auto-Animate or chat — will charge credits for each one. Check your credit balance before animating a large video.
Tip
If you're using Image First mode (not Auto-Animate), this is the step where you go from a storyboard to a fully animated video. Review all your shots before running this to avoid re-animating shots that need changes.
