Logline: the one-line pitch beside a piece
A logline is a single sentence that sells a story: who, what goes wrong, and what is at stake. On a showcase it sits under a title in place of a full synopsis. From 3 source pages, read 2026-09-25; no maker pays to be listed.
Revid prints one under each of its three films: two frontier AIs, one launch day, only one can win. Google Flow gives each short film a line of the same kind, pitching Electric Pink as a coming-of-age story with fights and a multiverse.
A logline is the opposite of a prompt. It describes the story a piece tells rather than the instructions that produced it, and it is written after the fact to make someone press play.
Runway goes further, with a paragraph for each festival winner, which moves from a logline to a synopsis.
For a visitor, a logline beside a two-minute film is a fair test of the film: does the piece deliver the situation the line promises within the time it runs?

2From a pipeline that ships episodes
The finished work behind “Logline” is made in steps; SceneMixer's guides describe them:
The lines are re-heard and written in the language your project is set to, and the finished episode is spoken by the voices attached to your own characters.

AI dubbing replaces the audio of a finished clip and then tries to match the lips. Native-language generation gives the video model the line in the target language before the shot exists, so mouth movement, pauses and shot length are produced for that language.
