Question 1

What is Sora?

Accepted Answer

Sora is OpenAI's flagship video model, known for realistic motion, strong physics, and detailed, imaginative scenes generated from a text prompt or a reference image — with synchronized audio.

Question 2

Does Sora generate audio, and how long are the clips?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Sora generates synced dialogue, sound effects, and background sound alongside the video. Individual clips are short (up to around 20 seconds), and you can build longer videos by combining clips in the editor.

Question 3

How do I write a good Sora prompt?

Accepted Answer

Describe the subject, camera work, lighting, and motion, and keep shots focused — the model follows instructions more reliably in shorter clips. Put any dialogue in quotes so the audio matches the action.

Question 4

Do I need filming or editing skills to use Sora?

Accepted Answer

No. You start from a text prompt or an image, and VideoGen gives you the tools to turn the clips into a finished video — no camera or prior editing experience required.

Question 5

How much does Sora cost?

Accepted Answer

VideoGen runs on credits; the exact cost depends on clip length and resolution and is shown before you generate, so you can decide before committing.
