Getting Started
Login and Initial Options
After logging in, you have several options to get started:

- Reference Image: Uploading a reference image allows LTX Studio to follow a specific style. You can adjust the intensity of this reference.
Editing Characters
Characters are fully editable:
- Name and Age: Change the character’s name and age, which auto-updates in real-time.
- Appearance: Modify aspects like hair color and clothing.
- Voices: Choose from various voice options. If unsatisfied, regenerate the character or face swap with your own photo.
Scene Customization
LTX Studio generates the scenes for you:
- Scene Details: Customize location, lighting, weather, sounds, and more.
- Shot Editor: Edit frames, adjust camera focus, and modify shot durations.
- Finalizing: Once satisfied with the scene, generate it into a motion video.
Example Output
Here's what a generated scene looks like:

Visualizing Concepts
Script Uploading
LTX Studio allows more flexibility:
