Seven steps to a treatment

Search a lot

Search with full sentences. Follow a look with Similar Search. Narrow with filters like shot size, lens, and Kelvin. The more ground you cover here, the stronger the pitch.

Gather what fits the project

Save every Frame and Motion that belongs in the pitch. Collect them in a Set, or drop them straight into a Treatment.

Write your copy

Before you design anything, take the time to write what the treatment needs to say. The concept, the tone, the approach. Assets and words ready before layout.

Choose a template

Open the Treatment template designer and pick one that feels right for the project, or start from a blank template.

Build the Slides

Add your assets and text to the template Slides. Frames, Motions, and your own uploads sit side by side, and Motions stay Motions.
