Media
Media is where you create and render your video — a guided flow from your audio and images to a finished output.
The flow, at a glance
Guardian steps → Creative Blueprint → Start Rendering → Output → Download / Edit / Publish
1. Opening Media
Open Media from the Studio sidebar, or from Studio's own quick actions.
2. Guardian
Guardian is the 6-step configuration wizard that builds your Creative Blueprint. It asks, in order: what you're creating, your visual theme, your visual style, your output format, then has you upload your audio and images.
3. Moving through the Guardian steps
Each step after the first shows a ← Back control that moves you to the immediately previous step. This is not your browser's back button — it uses Guardian's own step state, and every selection you've already made is preserved when you go back; nothing is discarded.
4. Creative Blueprint
Once Guardian's steps are complete, you reach your Creative Blueprint — a summary of the configuration you just built, showing exactly what will be rendered. From here, ← Back returns you to Guardian with your configuration intact, so you can adjust anything before committing.
When you're ready, Start Rendering commits your Creative Blueprint and begins rendering your video.
5. Rendering
After Start Rendering, VYRDAI renders your video from the configuration in your Creative Blueprint. You'll see the render's progress, and the Output stage becomes available once it finishes.
6. Output
Once your render finishes, Output gives you three actions:
- Download — saves the rendered video locally.
- Edit — opens the render in the Editor for further adjustment.
- Publish — opens the canonical Studio Publisher with this render already loaded, ready for you to choose a platform and publish. Publishing is never automatic — you choose the platform and confirm in Publisher yourself.
See the Editor documentation for what you can do there, and the Publisher documentation for publishing to YouTube and TikTok.
7. Starting again
← Back and Start over with Guardian are different actions. Back moves one step backward and keeps everything you've entered. Start over with Guardian, available from the Creative Blueprint screen, discards your current configuration entirely and restarts Guardian from its first step.
