Scene 02 · The callsheet
Everything between
the idea and the export
Shot-based workflow
Each shot has a start frame, an optional end frame and a prompt. The video model animates between the frames.
Image generation & editing
Nano Banana, GPT Image 2 and Flux, with inpainting and prompt-based edits when a frame needs surgery.
Version trees
Every generation and edit creates a version. Branch, compare and switch without ever destroying a take.
Video generation
Veo 3.1, Seedance 2, Kling 3, LTX-2.3 and Wan 2.1, with start/end-frame support wherever the model has it.
Timeline & export
Multi-track arranging with trim, split and preview playback. Native ffmpeg assembles the final movie with progress reporting.
Scene 03 · The cast
Supported models
Config-driven: a new model is a JSON definition in the source tree, discovered when the app is built.

Scene 05 · Q&A
Before you roll
- Do I need API keys?
- Yes, at least one. A Gemini key covers the Nano Banana family; a fal.ai key covers GPT Image 2, Flux and every video model. Configure them in Settings inside the app.
- Where does my data live?
- On your machine. Projects, media and API keys are stored in a local SQLite database in your system's app data directory (
~/.local/share/com.showbiz.app/on Linux). Keys never leave your machine except to authenticate API calls. - Is Showbiz free?
- Showbiz is open source under the MIT license. You bring your own model API keys and pay the providers directly for what you generate.
- Can I add my own models?
- Yes. Showbiz is open source. A new model from an already supported API provider is just a JSON definition under
src/lib/models/providers/, discovered when the app is built. A new API provider goes further: it needs a transport, the TypeScript that speaks its API, and possibly a new key type in Settings. Fork the project and add either yourself; a PR is even better, once merged it ships to everyone in the next release.
