modelBridge Academy
Foundations
Section titled “Foundations”Short primers for editors starting with generative AI. Each article explains one concept in plain language, shows where you’ll find it in modelBridge, and takes under 5 minutes to read.
- The 4 parameters that control every generation — Inference steps, guidance scale, seed, and denoising strength. The settings that matter most, explained without the math.
- Prompting for video editors — Write prompts using the camera language you already know.
- LoRA: consistent styles across your project — Think of LoRA like a color grade LUT — it locks a visual style across every generation.
- Upscaling for client delivery — Generate cheap at 720p, upscale your winner to 4K. The smart workflow.
- Inpainting & outpainting — Fix one area of a generation instead of redoing the whole thing.
- Negative prompts — Tell the AI what to avoid. A short blocklist that improves almost every generation.
- Cost control: generate smarter — Practical strategies to get better results while spending less.
- Parameter reference — Over 700 explained parameters across 100+ sections. From guidance scale to face animation, every setting explained for editors, not engineers. You can also access any section directly from the plugin — click the info icon on any parameter and follow “Learn more.”
modelBridge workflows
Section titled “modelBridge workflows”Workflows built around modelBridge-specific features — things that aren’t possible, or are significantly harder, without the plugin. Start here if you want to see what modelBridge can do that no other tool or browser-based platform can.
- Dual Mode — compare two models, keep the best — Run two models simultaneously from the same source clip. Compare results side by side, import the winner, discard the other.
- Extend a shot with video-to-video models — Extend any clip by 5-30 seconds directly from your Premiere timeline. Chain multiple passes to keep extending further.
- First + End Frame workflow — Generate two images, place them on your timeline, and let AI fill in the motion between them.
- Voice-over workflow with ElevenLabs — Record your scratch VO in Premiere, send it through ElevenLabs in modelBridge, preview the polished voice, import to timeline.
- Dubbing with ElevenLabs — Select a finished video clip, choose the target language, generate. The dubbed version replaces the original at the exact same timecode.
- Preview on mobile — Every generation automatically sends to your phone. Scan once, add to home screen, see every generation with safe zone overlays.
Workflows
Section titled “Workflows”Decision-driven workflows for real production situations. Deadline pressure, client work, iterating on a stubborn shot. Each article is a decision tool, not a tutorial.
- Common failure modes — and what to do about them — Smearing, stutter, lipsync drift, cursed anatomy, bad text, style drift. What to try first, when to switch model, when to fix it in Premiere.
