Whether you’re working with a script you’ve pasted or one generated by AI, Pictory analyzes your will automatically select relevant visuals for each scene based on the context of the text on the scene. You can turn this off if you prefer to manually choose your visuals later.

Although we recommend keeping this feature on, if you prefer to manually choose your visuals or disable this feature altogether, here’s how you can turn it off:

  1. After starting with either Text to video or URL to video, you’ll reach the Text Editor page (shown in the screenshot below).

  2. On the right-hand panel, go to the Scene settings section.

  3. Toggle off the fourth option – 'Select visuals with AI'.

Pictory will remember your preference for future projects, but you can always adjust it manually whenever you like.
