Before you begin:

On the Video Editor page, select Add your media to upload video, image, or audio files, or simply drag and drop them into the Your media panel.

The Add your media section is open and you have the option to drag and drop the media or use Select files to upload files from the local device.
Use the Add your media section to either drag and drop the media or use Select files to upload files from the local device.

Once the media is uploaded, it automatically gets added to the timeline.

Alternatively, you can select the Your media icon in the left sidebar to activate the Your media panel, and then the Select files option to add media files.

The Your media option is highlighted in the Firefly Video Editor page.
Use the Your media panel to add files to your project and then the timeline.

Once the media is added to the Your media panel, you can drag and drop it into the timeline.

If you want to add more media files to the timeline, you can use the Upload   icon in the Your media panel and then drag and drop them into the timeline.

The Upload option in the Your media panel is highlighted so that you can add new media files to the project and then to timeline.
Use the Upload option in the Your media panel to add new media files to the project and then to the timeline.

You can also generate new videos directly within the editor using the Firefly Video model, which offers multiple customizable controls, including resolution, aspect ratio, keyframe images, style presets, and camera angle.
