OpenAI\u2019s Sora 2 is getting a blockbuster upgrade \u2014 longer, more structured AI videos and a new storyboard tool that brings Hollywood-style planning to your browser.<\/p>\n
The company announced that everyone can now make 15-second videos, while ChatGPT Pro subscribers can generate up to 25 seconds on the web version. The update, shared by OpenAI on X (formerly Twitter) as \u201c2 Sora 2 updates,\u201d also introduces storyboards, a tool that lets creators plan and design their AI videos frame by frame.<\/p>\n
Until now, Sora 2 has limited users to short, 10-second clips. The new 15-second option marks a 50% increase, opening more room for storytelling and complex scenes. OpenAI said in its official release notes, \u201cWe\u2019re also introducing new duration options for longer videos\u2014perfect for ideas that need a few extra beats to fully unfold.\u201d<\/p>\n
Alongside longer videos, OpenAI also launched a new storyboard tool for Pro subscribers<\/a>. According to the company<\/a>, users can \u201cbuild your video frame by frame from scratch\u2014just like storyboards in Sora 1\u2014or simply describe a scene, choose a duration, and let Sora generate a detailed storyboard you can edit.\u201d<\/p>\n The storyboard tool, currently in beta, is exclusive to ChatGPT Pro users and only available through the web version of Sora.<\/p>\n Users can easily adjust the duration of their AI-generated videos. On the Sora app, you can change the duration by tapping the dropdown menu under \u201cCreate video.\u201d On the web, the option appears under the settings icon at the bottom left of the composer bar.<\/p>\n OpenAI\u2019s release also noted that 15-second videos count as two videos toward daily usage limits, while 25-second videos count as four.<\/p>\n Barely three weeks since its release, Sora 2 has managed to both impress<\/a> and unsettle the world<\/a>. The tool\u2019s ability to generate realistic, story-driven clips has fueled creativity but also reignited fierce debates in Hollywood over ownership and consent.\u00a0<\/p>\n Agencies like CAA and WME<\/a> have already warned that the technology \u201cexposes our clients and their intellectual property to significant risk,\u201d while OpenAI scrambles to calm the storm. In response, CEO Sam Altman has promised new \u201cgranular control\u201d settings and potential revenue sharing for rightsholders, but skepticism remains high.<\/p>\n As OpenAI pushes deeper into creative AI with Sora 2, it\u2019s also expanding its reach beyond content creation. <\/strong>Walmart\u2019s new partnership with OpenAI<\/strong><\/a> shows how the company\u2019s technology is reshaping everything from video generation to everyday shopping.<\/strong><\/p>\n The post Sora 2 Update: OpenAI Adds Longer Clips and Frame-by-Frame Storyboarding<\/a> appeared first on eWEEK<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" OpenAI\u2019s Sora 2 is getting a blockbuster upgrade \u2014 longer, more structured AI videos and a new storyboard tool that brings Hollywood-style planning to your browser.
