It would be great to delete multiple scenes at once

When I am creating script to video, most of my texts are long and I need to split them all for shorter script. Then I ended up having many scenes that are link together which I need to manually unlink them all which is taking too long. I hope there's a one button option where you can unlink all the scenes at once. That would be helpful and time saver! Thank you!

Be able to clone my voice similar as dine using AI voices so that I do not have to do voiceovers for each video using my voice manually

Can we have options to pause, slowdown, and give emphasis indications so that the ai voice over can be under contro like human voice reading. Right now the AI sure does follow punctuation marks, but then in some cases to give longer pause we cannot go beyond the grammatical borders of punctuation as the sentence will look out of context and stretched. Can we have an alternative option like a punctuation code through which the AI voiceover can be customised?

Multiple Voices - Add ability for conversations, or multiple contributors to storytelling. Think about a series of sides, some being told by a central character, others contributing. Even a slide where multiple voices are speaking the same message together...perhaps building into a crescendo... Slide 1 - One voice Slide 2 - Two voices Slide 3 - Four voices Slide 4 - A crowd!

The default Pan & Zoom option for images is ok, but is there a way to add more Image Animations to Pictory?

Try the following: Apply a voice-over to the intro scene. Apply a voice-over to the outro scene. Apply a voice-over to the entire video and select “No, it does not” at the prompt. Now you have three different voice-overs but you cannot generate the video now (it stops with two error messages) because the feature of three different voice-overs is not supported. Why I want that feature: I want to avoid packing all three voice-overs into one voice-over because I must pay my text-to-speech vendor by seconds. So I wanted to generate the intro and outro only once and just make the rest from scratch.

Lots of videos these days are in vertical format - YT shorts, Tiktok etc. Ability to search images & video clips based on aspect ratio would make things much easier.

When a script is longer than the time-limit (10/20 mins.) it would be helpful to know where to cut (and split into a Part 2 video if desired). Also, this would help in knowing what scenes are longer than their video clips, so we could adjust accordingly (usually by removing looping), conversely it would point out where trimming of a video clip might be needed (when the scene is shorter than the video clip). Today we have to flip back and forth between Visuals and StoryBoard and click on each scene to compare these time durations.

i have an image that i want to add as a layer and not as a background. but everytime i make this image larger, it only resizes to fit the screen... i want to zoom the image/ expand to a specific point in the image. not just provide the entire image.

This is again a common ask from most of our customers.

upload an audio file (ie podcast) and edit via the transcription

We are working on a much better AI model that fetches visuals that are relevant. Thus, making the video creation workflow much more efficient.

Can have great niche based images and graphic elements so if you can add those that would be great. We don't have to edit video on another software. Also there not a lot of pictures in pictory. So please add images library from canva.

Hi, just wondering if there is a way to download the story/script before rendering/generating the video. Sometimes I change the script after the scenes are applied and then I don't have an updated copy of the script to do my voiceover unless I go scene by scene. It would be much more efficient to download the script and read from that rather than reading scene by scene. Thanks.
