Find your way around Cardboard
Now that we've set everything up, it's time to meet your new workspace.
All you need to make a video in Cardboard is an idea. That's why you start every project with nothing but a chat box.
Tell your agent what you'd like to make, and your workspace opens up around it. This is where you’ll watch your video come together and make changes along the way.
Your agent will handle the editing for you, so you don’t need to learn every tool to get started. But here’s a quick look around, in case you need it.
The Agent
On your right, you'll find your AI editing agent. This is where you describe what you want to make, ask for changes, and talk through ideas.
Video preview
This is where you’ll see your video as the agent builds it. Play it back anytime to see how it’s coming along. If something feels off, tell the agent what you’d like to change.
Timeline
At the bottom is your timeline. Think of it as a map of your video, with clips and audio arranged in the order they play, from left to right.
You can rearrange clips and trim their length here, or ask the agent to make those changes for you.
Tools
The toolbar on the left gives you access to your editing tools. Select a tool to open its panel.

Top bar
Use the top bar to choose your video’s dimensions, share your project, or export the finished video.
That's the workspace. Talk to the agent, or use the tools to make changes by yourself.
Ready when you are.
