Common mistakes to avoid
These are typical pitfalls our editors hit when assembling similar tool chains — check against them before you start and save yourself rework:
- Running generation before the script is locked, so footage and narrative drift apart
- Inconsistent style across clips (model/prompt drift) making the final cut feel disjointed
- Ignoring footage and music licensing, leading to takedowns
