Most creators don\u2019t want eight or ten seconds. They want a complete idea. Short clips are useful, but they break down when you are trying to tell an actual story.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Magic Hour now supports up to 60-second videos by orchestrating multiple short scenes into a single story with consistent characters and visuals. Available in Text-to-Video and Image-to-Video.<\/div>\n

Magic Hour today announced support for generating videos up to 60 seconds long using Sora 2 and Veo 3.1 through a new multi-scene workflow. Since these models are typically used for short clips, Magic Hour sequences multiple generations into a single video and applies continuity controls so the result feels like one cohesive story.<\/p>\n

“We built this so longer videos still feel coherent from start to finish,” said Runbo Li, Co-founder and CEO of Magic Hour. “The scenes connect, the look stays consistent, and the same characters carry through instead of changing every few seconds.”<\/p>\n

The workflow is available in both Text-to-Video and Image-to-Video. In Text-to-Video, users start with a prompt and Magic Hour generates an ordered shot plan that breaks the idea into scenes. In Image-to-Video, users start with a reference image to anchor key visual elements, such as the main character’s appearance and the overall look, across the full video.<\/p>\n
