Login Hi [First name], This month, start your videos with a lot more than a blank prompt. Drop in ready-made scenes that match your brand. Answer setup questions upfront. Use any video as a style reference. And turn a webpage into a video with our Chrome Extension. Why this matters: In our State of AI Video report, the #1 challenge marketers run into is still AI video that looks obviously AI-generated. The more of your own brand, footage, and style you bring in, the less generic your videos get. Caroline Clark CEO, Arcade See what's new 🎬 Drop In Ready-Made, On-Brand Scenes Hit the + button in your timeline to add a ready-made intro, logo reveal, text animation, or transition, already styled with your Brand Kit's colors, fonts, and logo. Edit it by hand or ask the AI. Built by Aleks, with an assist from Arjun 👏 🪞 Use Any Video as a Style Reference Want your next video to match the style of an existing one? Upload a file or pick any Arcade video, even a draft. Its pacing, transitions, and camera work carry straight into your new one. Team effort by Aleks and Rich, with an assist from Boogie 👏 ⏺️ Record With the Chrome Extension Turn any webpage into a video. The AI Video Chrome extension records your screen, adds camera and voice, and plans a video with you, all without leaving the tab. Give it a try and leave us a rating in the Chrome Web Store! Shoutout to Rich and Raul 👏 💬 Answer Upfront, Skip the Back-and-Forth Before it starts building, Arcade asks a few quick questions about your story, audience, and tone, one card at a time. Tap an answer or type your own, so nothing important gets lost in the chat. Raul built this one 👏 ✂️ Fine-Tune Footage With Clip Controls When your video includes footage, scrub to the moment a clip should start, set its speed, and turn on its original sound, right from the Design panel. Or just ask the AI to do it. Another one from Raul 👏 ✨ Other Improvements Ask for a different narrator and hear up to three voices reading your script. Arcade remembers your pick. Fix a mispronounced word right from the chat and save it to your Brand Kit Uploaded clips of you talking can keep your own voice instead of narration Copy any scene and paste it into another video Highlight part of the AI's reply to respond to just that point, and paste screenshots straight into the composer Existing Brand Kits suggest updates, like sharper colors and missing logo variants, that you can accept or reject The agent now watches the videos it generates and fixes real problems before you see them Agent edits land almost twice as fast, and you can watch the AI think while your first video builds Arcade remembers more of your style preferences, and knows a passing reaction from a lasting rule Videos pick up your brand colors as they build, and Brand Kit backgrounds render instantly from those colors More polished layouts, and better b-roll when you reference a URL or an Arcade API and MCP prompts can run up to 20,000 characters 🐛 Bug Fixes A turn that times out now shows an error and keeps your credits Video generation handles image-heavy prompts more smoothly Exports keep your brand's actual fonts Short stock clips near the end of a scene now export reliably The video embed link is available in the export panel Reordering a scene no longer cuts off a long voiceover Trimmed-scene audio no longer carries into the next scene Turning off captions no longer removes your on-screen headlines Duplicating a video or restoring an earlier export works, even after lots of edits Brand Kits capture your true logo and brand colors A failed invite now tells you why That's a wrap for September. The full list lives in the Arcade changelog. See you next month! Read the changelog Arcade helps you create effortlessly beautiful videos in minutes.
