Checking the Summary, and What “Re-parse” Means

Quick answer: When the reading finishes, step 1 shows Script Parsed: title, protagonist, era, adaptation strategy, how many characters, scenes, props and episodes were found, and an outline per episode. Read the cast and the episode count; the rest is easy to fix later. Wrong names, roles or descriptions are edited in step 2. A wrong episode’s storyboard is redone with Re-parse in step 3. A script that was cut into the wrong episodes, or read with the wrong type or region, is best read again in a new project — the reading is priced by length and the free image allowance is account-wide.

What the summary shows

Title (the project name, editable), Protagonist, Era, Adaptation Strategy — how the reading intends to turn the text into episodes — and the counts: characters, scenes, items, episodes. Below, the script content, and an outline for each episode with Show more to expand them.

What to check

The episode count. Ten episodes for a story you expected in three means the type or the split is not what you wanted. The protagonist. If the reading picked the wrong person, the roles in step 2 will be off. The era and strategy. A modern story read as period will dress and stage everything wrong. Everything else — a name, a description, a scene that should not exist — is a step-2 edit.

Fixed in step 2

Names, roles, appearance, clothing, voices; a missing character or place (add it); a place the story does not need (delete it). None of that needs the script read again. Step 2.

The episode asset library showing generated character sheets, location images and prop images — The reading's cast, in step 2. Names, roles and descriptions are edited here, not by reading the script again.

Fixed with an episode Re-parse

Each episode’s storyboard is written from its outline when you press Parse Storyboard in step 3. If the storyboard is wrong, Re-parse writes it again; it costs the storyboard fee and discards that episode’s segments and videos. What re-parsing an episode costs you.

Needs a new project

The reading itself: where the episode breaks fall, the region the cast was moved to, the world the story lives in. Those are decided when the script is read, and step 1 does not read it again once it has a summary. Start a new project with the same script and the settings you want. The reading is priced by script length — 4 credits per 3,333 characters of English — and your free image allowance is counted per account, so images already made do not cost you the allowance twice.

When the reading failed

Step 1 shows Previous parsing failed with the reason, and the credits are back. Fix what the reason names — usually the script is too long, too short, or a link — and press Next again. The reading.

FAQ

Can I read the script again in the same project?

No. Once step 1 has a summary it does not read the script again. Start a new project with the same script for a different split, region or type.

Do I lose my free images if I start a new project?

No. The free allowance is counted per account across projects.

A character has the wrong name.

Edit it in step 2. Every later shot follows the new name.

The episodes are cut in the wrong places.

That is the reading. Start a new project, choosing the type you want before pressing Next.

What does Re-parse in step 3 do?

It rewrites one episode's storyboard from its outline, discarding that episode's segments and videos.

Read the cast, then move on

Most of the summary is fixable later. The episode count is the one to get right now.
