Video clips from films made in M Studio — each one started as a line of script and a storyboard picture.





From the live chat, as they wrote it. Each one paid for a plan and made films with M Studio.
“Okay, thank you. I am going to pay the $99 because I love the photos you all made for me. I want to see them move in a movie.”
“I think I love this platform. To be able to actually connect with the founder and the creators is nothing short of amazing. I don't know of any other platform that handles issues like this.”
“I am thinking of moving my projects over to your platform, so have just been trying out a few things. It is really good so far.”
“I appreciate your help. You must be one of top support members.”
“I just did and it is perfect! Thank you once again!”
“I believe in you guys. I know you are a young company, but I think you have some great minds in your company and great leadership. I can see you being a leader in this industry. You guys listen to your customers. That is not that common.”
“I've tested and created quite a few platforms and I've made a few projects thus far from them. The cinematography on this one is arguably the best I've seen thus far.”
“I know I have discovered a lot of problems for you guys, but I really like the platform. I may increase my plan soon.”
“Thank you for EXCELLENT customer care!”
How it works
1 · Script
M Studio reads every scene and breaks it into shots, with what each one shows and the lines each character speaks. Start from a one-line idea instead, and it writes the script first. See one project go from script to movie.
Start the $1 trial2 · Storyboard
Lock each character's face once, and the AI storyboard generator draws a picture for every shot with them in it. Change any picture until it matches the shot in your head.
Start the $1 trial3 · Film
Turn the frames you approve into video clips, voice the dialogue, add music and sound effects, and export the cut. Compare it with the other AI movie makers.

That whole list fits inside a single month of any plan, with most of its budget left over — so nothing above is an extra charge.
Hired-out figures are typical US freelance and small-studio rates for this work — yours will differ. M Studio figures are what the same work draws from your monthly budget at the default models’ rates, where storyboard pictures are 25¢ each, finished shots and edits of a shot are 5¢ per second, and voiceover, music and sound effects draw nothing.
M Studio is an AI movie maker that runs in your browser. Type a short idea or paste a script, and it writes the shots, draws a storyboard with the same characters in every frame, turns the frames into video clips, and adds voice, music and sound. You finish the cut on a timeline and export an MP4. It is made for short films, feature-length films, music videos, book trailers and pitch trailers, and you need no editing or drawing skills. It costs $1 to try for 24 hours, then plans start at $99/month unless you cancel.
Type an idea or paste a script; M Studio writes the shots and makes the film.
Every shot gets a storyboard frame you can change before it becomes video.
Each character is drawn from one reference, so the face holds from shot to shot.
Each approved frame turns into a video clip, then voice, music and sound are added.

There's no free plan or free trial — every plan is paid, starting at $99/month. When a trial is offered, new accounts can start with a paid trial: you pay the small trial fee today and get the script, storyboard, scene audio, score and a few video clips of single shots. When the trial ends, the plan you chose starts automatically and your card is charged, unless you cancel first in Settings → Billing. The trial fee is not refunded. Your first plan payment comes with a 24-hour money-back window from the moment it is charged. You can also see what M Studio makes before you pay — the demo gallery has complete films made on M Studio, start to finish.
Yes — there's no cap on film length. Films are built shot by shot, so how long a piece can run comes down to your plan's monthly budget rather than any limit in the editor, and episodic work is what the Studio plan is sized for. If you're planning something feature-length or a multi-episode series, talk to us before you subscribe and we'll tell you honestly what it will take on your script.
Every plan includes a monthly generation budget: $225 on Professional and $450 on Studio. Video draws from it by the second, and each plan card shows how many minutes of AI video the budget buys at today's price, or about how many storyboard pictures it buys instead. Re-takes count too, so the minutes are what you generate, not the length of your final cut. Voiceover, music and sound effects cost nothing.
One flat price each month, and your plan includes a monthly generation budget — $225 on Professional and $450 on Studio. Video draws from it by the second and storyboard pictures by the picture, and each plan card shows what the budget buys at today's prices; voiceover, music and sound effects cost nothing. Settings → Billing shows the running balance at any time. Nothing extra is ever charged unless you choose to top up.
Yes. Every generation that reaches the model is charged, including re-takes and shots you end up discarding — a generation that fails before it reaches the model is not. Most directors budget two to three attempts on the shots that matter, so read the plan budget as generations rather than as finished shots.
Yes. Storyboard pictures and video clips are both charged per generation, and both draw from the same monthly budget. There is no separate free allowance for storyboard pictures.
Between 3 and 15 seconds, and 5 seconds is the default. You set the length per shot, and longer shots cost proportionally more because video is billed by the second.
Nothing stops automatically. You can buy a top-up to keep going, or wait until next month. No surprise charges — you're always in control, and you can cancel any time.
Sometimes. Every shot passes through the underlying model's own safety filter, and action — fights, stunts, weapons — is what trips it most often. Re-prompting the shot or switching the model for that one shot usually clears it. If action carries your film, test a fight beat in your first session so you know where the line sits before you build a slate around it. Our Acceptable Use terms set the outer boundary.
One film is one workspace for a film or storyboard. The number of films on your plan is how many you can keep at once, not how many you can make in a month — delete a film you've finished and the slot comes straight back.
Yes. You own the content you generate and you can use it commercially, including monetized YouTube, client work and ads. See our Terms for the full wording.
You can cancel any time from Settings → Billing; you keep access until the end of the period you've paid for. A cancelled trial stays open until it ends, then closes without starting the plan. For a refund, your first plan payment is covered for 24 hours from the moment it is charged (a trial fee is not refunded) — email hello@mstudio.ai or start a live chat and we'll sort it out. To delete your account and its data entirely, email the same address and we'll delete it. You don't need Discord for any of this.
US dollars, everywhere on the site. Your bank converts at its own rate on the day, so the amount on your statement will differ from the sticker price if you're billed in another currency.
Twelve: English, Chinese, Hindi, Spanish, French, Arabic, Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, German, Italian, and Korean. Pick the language when you create a film — the script, dialogue, and voice narration are generated in it — and dub any finished clip into another of them from AI VFX, with every speaker keeping their own voice.
