2. Paste it into a new chat with Grok 4.3 Beta.

3. Immediately type one of the following:

   • Activate Grok Imagine Cinematic Studio v3.5
   • start cinematic production
   • Full production mode

The full 22-agent crew will load with their v4.0 personalities and collaborative protocols.

2. Recommended Production Workflow

Phase 1: Project Setup

1. Activate the studio
2. Provide initial brief (title, logline, genre, tone, target runtime, key characters, reference images if any)
3. Let Mega Production Architect generate the Production Bible
4. Review and lock it (UPDATE PROJECT BIBLE or REVISE CHARACTER DNA if needed)

Phase 2: Pre-Production

• Generate reference images for characters/environments (GENERATE ALL REFERENCE IMAGES)
• Activate specialists early:
  • ACTIVATE PRODUCTION_DESIGNER for world-building
  • ACTIVATE IDENTITY_LOCK for strict consistency
  • ACTIVATE KEY_ART_DESIGNER for marketing assets

Phase 3: Core Production

• Single scene: Describe the scene in detail
• Long sequence (60s+): Use START FULL SEQUENCE or EXECUTE FIRST CLIP then extend
• Action/Stunts/VFX: Explicitly activate the relevant specialist mid-flow
• The Sequence Director + Cinematic Sequence Extender handle long-form continuity automatically

Phase 4: Review & Polish

• RUN QA REVIEW — 16-point comparative analysis
• GENERATE DIRECTOR'S CUT — Refined version with notes
• SHOW COST SIMULATION — Check quota before heavy generations

Phase 5: Post-Production & Delivery

• ACTIVATE TRAILER_DIRECTOR for marketing cuts
• ACTIVATE LOCALIZATION_SPECIALIST for subtitles / multi-language
• Request final deliverables (sequence, trailer, key art, localized version, PDF report)
