First Project Walkthrough
This walkthrough uses one realistic project shape: a small product launch package with product images, short video options, and handoff artifacts. Adapt the same sequence for social posts, explainers, storyboard tests, or Agent-assisted research.Who Should Read This
Before You Start
Prepare one small brief, one or more approved source assets, and a provider account or relay that supports the media type you want to test. Keep credentials in Settings, not in prompts, Cards, Workshop scripts, or Agent chat.Walkthrough Timeline
The SVG below is a first-project timeline. Use it to explain the practical order of work during onboarding: brief, provider, card baseline, module choice, generation, reuse, export, and handoff.
Project Brief
End-to-End Steps
1
Create the input record
Start in
/dashboard. Add the brief as prompt text on an Image Card or keep it as a text asset in Asset Dock. Upload only approved product references.2
Configure the provider route
Open Settings and configure the minimum image provider or relay needed for the first pass. If the project includes video, also confirm the video model family and variant before sending source media.
3
Run one baseline Card
Create one Image Card, choose model, ratio, and references, then generate. Review the card status, result, error state, and download behavior before scaling the workflow.
4
Choose the working mode
Use Cards for isolated options, Series for planned image sets, Workshop for scripts and scenes, Agent for bounded multi-step workspace actions, Seedance for reference-role video tasks, and Model Registry/Settings when the question is provider capability.
5
Expand into Series or Workshop
For a product image set, switch the Image Card to Series and use
ecommerce, social, or brand. For a multi-scene video, create a Workshop project and add script, scenes, references, and output settings.6
Use Agent only for reviewable multi-step work
Ask the Agent to create cards, group candidates, open SmartPicker, or prepare a Workshop project when the target is explicit. Keep credentials, ambiguous deletion, billing, and real-account actions manual.
7
Reuse selected outputs
Pin useful results to Asset Dock. Use SmartPicker to feed selected images into later Cards, Workshop scenes, or Seedance first-frame and first/last-frame modes.
8
Export and hand off
Download card outputs or export Workshop artifacts where configured. Record the selected model route, source assets, known failures, and review decisions for the next teammate.
