Organize, upload, and manage all your media files in one place for seamless video creation.

Your Assets page is GEN's media command center — where every image, video, and audio file lives, ready to fuel your video creation pipeline. Think of it as your brand's digital vault, organized and accessible whenever inspiration strikes.

Whether you're managing a growing library of product shots, brand videos, or audio clips, Assets keeps everything organized and instantly available for your video creation workflow.

What Assets Can Do

Assets handles every media type your videos need:

  • Images → JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP for backgrounds, overlays, and visual elements

  • Videos → MP4, MOV, WebM for clips, backgrounds, and base footage

  • Audio → MP3, WAV, AAC for music, voiceovers, and sound effects

  • Documents → PDFs and text files for reference content

⚡ Pro Move: Upload your brand kit first — logos, color palettes, fonts, and key visuals. Having these ready makes every video feel instantly on-brand.

Bulk Upload Strategy

Planning a content blitz? Upload strategically:

  • Product shots → Create seasonal folders before you need them

  • Brand assets → Keep logos and graphics in a "Brand" folder

  • Stock footage → Organize by mood, color, or campaign theme

  • Audio library → Sort by genre, energy level, or use case

Folder Organization That Scales

Smart folder structure prevents chaos as your library grows:

Folder Creation

  1. Click "New Folder" in your Assets panel

  2. Name it descriptively (avoid generic names like "Images")

  3. Drag files into folders or upload directly to specific folders

Referencing Assets in Projects

When creating videos in your vidsheet:

  1. Select any media cell → Creation card opens

  2. Click "Upload/Select" → Your Assets library appears

  3. Choose your file → It populates the cell automatically

  4. Customize as needed → Apply effects, timing, or overlays
