Studio

Studio is where you turn a product into a finished image or video. Everything you choose sits in one settings panel, and you work through it from top to bottom. This guide follows the panel in that order, so you can keep it open beside Studio and tick off each step.

Before you start

• Your workspace has at least one product. Connect a store or add products first, see Products.
• Your workspace has credits. The cost of each generation is shown on the Generate button before you commit.

The order of the panel

1. Choose Image or Video.
2. Choose a Model.
3. Choose your Product (or, for video, your start image).
4. Choose a Template, or let the AI Assistant fill in your settings.
5. Adjust Generation Settings and, if you like, add prompt details.
6. Set the output options: quality, shape, and how many versions.
7. Press Generate.

You can skip steps 4 and 5 and still generate. They exist to give you more control.

Step 1: Choose Image or Video

1. Open Studio from the workspace navigation.
2. At the top of the settings panel, click Image to create pictures or Video to create short clips.

The panel changes to match your choice. You can switch back and forth. An Edit tab, for changing images you already have, is shown only on some Studio pages.

Step 2: Choose a model

The model is the engine that makes your image or video. Different models have different strengths, so this choice affects the look, the speed, and the available options below it.

1. Find the Model row near the top of the panel. It shows the current model name, or Auto.
2. Click the row. A drawer opens, titled Image Model (or Video Model on the Video tab).
3. Pick one of the options:

- Auto lets Epox choose the best model for your settings. It is the right choice when you are not sure. - A named model, grouped under the company that provides it. Use the search box or the Filter menu to narrow the list.

1. Read the small badges under each name. They show what the model is good at, the resolutions it supports (for example 1K-4K), and whether it is Fast or Slow. A Pro tag marks the highest-quality models.
2. Hover the info icon on a model to read a longer description.
3. Click a model to select it. The drawer closes.

To make a model your default, click its pin icon (Set as workspace default). The model then carries a Default tag and is used whenever you start a new session. Click the pin again (Remove workspace default) to undo it.

Step 3: Choose your product

Image tab

1. In the Products area, click the + button in the section header (its tooltip reads Select products to generate), or click the product card if one is already shown.
2. A picker titled Select Products & Source Images opens. Search with the Search products... box, and narrow the list with the All Categories, All Collections and All Tags filters.
3. Click a product to choose which of its photos to use as the source image, then click Done. To pick several products, repeat this for each one.
4. Click Select (N) to confirm, where N is how many products you chose. Click Cancel to close without changing anything.
5. The product appears in the panel with its photo. To remove it, click Clear product (or Clear products when several are selected).

The product's photo is the reference Epox uses to keep your item looking like your item. A clear, well-lit photo gives the best results.

On the Studio home page, once you select more than one product, choose how they are used from the mode menu next to Products:

• Single: one product at a time.
• Batch: one image for each product.
• Multi: combine products into one image.

Once you have generated in a session, the mode is shown as a label (Single, Batch, Multi, or Pack) and cannot be changed mid-session.

Video tab

The Video tab starts from an image instead of a product card.

1. Under Start, click the image slot and, in Select Start Image, choose an image from your library.
2. Optional: under End (optional), choose an image for the video to finish on, in Select End Image. Not every model supports this, and a model that does not will tell you so.
3. Optional: under References, click Add reference images / video to give the model extra visuals to follow. This appears only for models that accept references.

Some models let you use either a Start/End pair or References, not both. A note beside the inputs says so when it applies.

Step 4: Choose a template, or use the AI Assistant

A template is a saved direction: a set of Generation Settings you or your team built once and can apply again. The AI Assistant builds settings for you from a description.

Use a template

1. In the Template section, click Select Templates.
2. Browse or search, and click the template you want.
3. The section now shows the template name on a card, and your Generation Settings fill in to match.
4. Adjust anything you want in the next step.
5. To remove the template, click Clear templates.

To keep a tweak for later, click Save settings to save your changes as a template. See Templates.

Use the AI Assistant

1. In the Settings area, click AI Assistant… (its tooltip reads Generate Settings with AI).
2. A chat opens. Describe the image or video you want in your own words, for example the room, the mood, or where the product will be used.
3. The assistant fills in the settings tiles for you. Review them in the next step and change anything that is not right.

See Epoxy for how to get the most from the assistant.

Step 5: Adjust Generation Settings

Generation Settings are the tiles under Settings. Each one controls one part of the picture. Empty tiles are fine; Epox fills in sensible choices for anything you leave blank.

1. Click a tile to open it.
2. Choose or type what you want. Changes are kept when you close the tile.
3. A filled tile shows a short summary of your choice.
4. To remove a single tile's choice, click the small X on it. To reset everything, click Clear (title Clear all settings) at the top of the Image tab's section. This also clears your prompt and any template, with no confirmation.
5. Click the + button at the top of the section to add optional tiles.

A new Image session shows Scene, Lighting, Elements, Camera, and Reference, and the + button adds Style, Colors, and Character. The video tiles are Camera Motion, Product Motion, Surface & Shadow, Lighting Motion, Lens, Pacing, Video Style, and Human Presence. Every tile has its own explanation, options, and examples in Generation Settings.

Add prompt details

Below the tiles is a text box, Add additional prompt details.... Use it for anything the tiles do not cover.

1. Click the box and write what you want to see, in plain sentences.
2. Optional: click Enhance to have Epox sharpen your words and, on the Image tab, fill in matching settings. It costs no credits. A daily allowance applies, shown as "Enhance · N left today".
3. If you do not like the rewrite, click Undo enhance.

Step 6: Set the output

One row of dropdowns controls the size and number of results.

Quality

1. Click the first dropdown, for example 1K.
2. Choose a quality: 1K, 2K, or 4K, depending on the model. Each option shows its approximate size in pixels and its cost in credits per image.
3. A padlock marks a level that is greyed out and cannot be selected because your plan does not include it.

Choose the lowest quality while you are exploring, then raise it for your final image.

Aspect ratio

1. Click the second dropdown, for example 1:1.
2. Choose a shape that matches where the image will be used:

- 1:1 (Square) for product grids and marketplaces. - 4:5 or 3:4 (Portrait) for social feeds and product pages. - 16:9 or 3:2 (Landscape) for banners and hero sections. - 9:16 (Portrait) for stories and vertical placements. - 21:9 (Ultra Wide) for wide banners. - Also available: 2:3, 4:3, and 5:4.

1. Some models offer only some ratios at some qualities.

Variants

1. Click the third dropdown, for example 1x.
2. Choose how many versions to create: 1 variant up to 4 variants. Your plan and the quality you chose set the maximum.
3. More variants cost more credits, but give you choices to compare.

Step 7: Generate

1. Look at the Generate button at the bottom of the panel. Hover it to see the credit cost and how it is made up (quality, variants, and products), plus an estimated time.
2. If you do not have enough credits, the hover shows Not enough credits with the cost and what you have available.
3. Click Generate.

The button label depends on the page you are on. It reads Generate in a session, Generate Selected on the Studio home page once you have selected items, Generate Pack Session for a pack, and Generate Video on the Video tab. While your work is running, the button shows the progress.

Check your result

1. From the Studio home page, you stay on Studio and it switches to the Sessions tab, where your new session appears and fills in as results finish. While it runs, the Generate button shows Generating with a percentage.
2. When it finishes, a message appears with a Go to session button that takes you to the finished results.
3. Select one or more results to use the action bar: Favorite, Download, Pin, Hide and Delete. Use what you like and delete the rest.

You can review and manage your generated images in the Library.

To improve a result, change one thing at a time, such as the lighting tile or the aspect ratio, and generate again. Small, single changes show you exactly what each setting does.

Video tab in detail

The Video tab follows the same order, with these differences.

Settings and prompt

For most video models you will see Settings tiles for motion, and a Prompt box with the placeholder "Describe the motion and action you want in your video...". The video tiles are explained in Generation Settings.

Some models work in Shots. Instead of the tiles and prompt, you add several shots and describe each one. Duration is then the total of all your shots, and you set the length per shot.

Video output

The output row has four dropdowns:

1. Aspect ratio: 16:9 (Landscape), 9:16 (Portrait), 1:1 (Square), 4:3 (Standard), 3:4 (Vertical), 21:9 (Ultra-wide), or 9:21 (Ultra-tall). The model decides which are offered.
2. Resolution: 720p (Standard HD), 1080p (Full HD), or 4K (Cinema). This dropdown is hidden for models that do not offer a choice.
3. Duration: commonly 4 sec (Quick clip), 6 sec (Standard), or 8 sec (Extended). Some models offer other lengths, such as 5, 10 or 15 seconds. Higher resolutions may allow only the longest option.
4. Sound: Auto (Epox chooses), Music (background music), Off (silent video), or Custom (you describe the sound). Some models offer only generated sound or silence.
