Branded videos that end on your real logo
Add your brand and a video made from your pictures becomes a branded video: it opens on a generated frame in your brand's look and closes on an end card with your real logo in the centre. The logo is your own file, placed as it is - never redrawn by the AI.

Branded video, step by step
Publish your guidelines
Set up the brand in Melon Cut Guidelines with its logo, colours and fonts, and publish it. Its @username is how Cutlin finds it.
Add the brand and pictures
Type the @username under Primary brand in Configuration, attach the pictures the video should be made from, and ask for a video.
Make the video
Describe the motion and run it. The video gets an opening frame in your brand's look and an end card with your logo in the centre.
Your logo, not a drawing of it
The AI is never asked to draw your logo. The end card carries your actual logo file, centred, and it is never recoloured or stretched, so the last thing viewers see is exactly the mark they know.
Guided by your brand guidelines
The brand's published guidelines - its instructions, its most relevant assets and its fonts - guide what is generated. That is how the opening frame and the end card come out looking like the rest of your content.
What it costs
A branded video uses 150 credits for every started 5 seconds, against 60 for a video without a brand. The studio shows the cost of each run, with your balance, before it starts.
One brand across stills and video
The same @username keeps your pictures, posts and stories on-brand, with your real logo placed on each. A campaign's videos and stills can come from one chat and one set of guidelines.

Can AI videos include my logo?
Yes. Make a video from pictures with your brand added and it ends on a card with your real logo file in the centre. The AI never draws the logo itself.
Do I need Melon Cut Guidelines?
Yes. The brand is kept there, and Cutlin reads its published guidelines by its @username. Melon Cut Guidelines has a Free plan that works with Cutlin; its plans are on meloncut.com.
Why does a branded video use more credits?
It adds an opening frame and an end card with your logo, and it is guided by your brand's guidelines. It uses 150 credits per started 5 seconds instead of 60.
A brand used in Cutlin is kept in Melon Cut Guidelines: its guidelines page is at meloncut.com/yourbrand, and Cutlin reads it from there.

People also ask
- Video Can AI videos include my logo? Yes, but it should be your real logo file, not one the AI draws: video models can distort letters and shapes. In Cutlin, add your brand's @username to a video made from pictures and it becomes a branded video, with a generated opening frame and an end card showing your real logo file, centred.
- Pricing and credits How many credits does an AI video cost? In Cutlin an AI video costs 60 credits for every started 5 seconds, so a 10-second clip costs 120 credits. A branded video, made with your brand guidelines, costs 150 credits per started 5 seconds. The studio shows the exact cost before you start, and the rate is the same whichever video model Cutlin picks.
- Social media How do I keep social media posts on-brand? Write the rules down and apply them every time: the same colours, fonts, logo placement and tone of voice on every post. Brand guidelines make that possible. Publish yours in Melon Cut Guidelines, then type your brand's @username in Cutlin: its colours, fonts and style guide every post, and your real logo file is placed on it.
