Creative illustrations
What can you edit with HappyHorse 1.0?
Develop changes around existing footage, combining overall style, individual elements, and visual references into a more specific creative direction.
Describe an edit in your own words
Explain the object, visual effect, and details you want to keep. Natural language becomes a starting point for revising footage when you already have material and a clear goal.
For a stage clip, you might explore a different atmosphere or a new appearance for a particular object. Defining the scope makes it easier to judge whether the change serves the original story.

Explore different styles for the same footage
Style transfer opens another visual direction for an existing clip. Describe an illustration treatment, a crafted material, or another art direction that fits the theme of your work.
A style also changes how texture, light, and detail are perceived. Compare candidates alongside the subject, movement, and rhythm before choosing a direction to develop further.

Change a specific element within the scene
Element replacement focuses a revision on a particular object. When the composition and action already work, a different appearance can open another creative direction.
The change should fit its surroundings. Review edges, occlusion, and consecutive frames to identify areas that need further refinement.

Show the visual target with reference images
A reference can add appearance, material, or style information to a written request. The footage supplies the motion, while the image helps communicate the visual qualities to introduce.
In a design review, references might clarify a fabric texture, prop design, or color relationship. Choose clear imagery and explain which part of the scene it should influence.

Build on existing motion and sound
Editing develops a visual change around the movement already present in a clip. It suits work where you want to retain the action and rhythm while exploring another treatment.
The official editing interface includes an option to preserve source audio. For footage with dialogue, music, or location sound, review the soundtrack alongside the revised visuals before continuing the edit.
