What a style is

A style is how your videos look, written in words: Montage reads it and edits your video that way. Here is what is inside one, and how to use it.

Written by Ben (Founder) · Updated November 5, 2026

A style is words, not a picture

A style is a small folder in your Library. Its main page, SKILL.md, says:

Part What it says
Its name What the Library shows on its card
One line What it is for, under the name
Its rules The look in words: the pace, the cuts, the captions, the fonts, the colours

A style can also hold longer pages it points to, and name things it uses: a component of your Library, or your own files, such as a logo or a font.

Make a style

  1. Open a video whose look you like.
  2. Ask: « Make this a style ».
  3. Montage writes the style and keeps it in your Library, under Styles, for your whole team.

Use a style

  1. In Library, open the style’s card: you read its name, its line and its rules.
  2. Press Use this style. New video opens with the style picked and « Make a video in the … style. » written for you.
  3. Or, in any box you write in, press +, then From the Library, and pick it.

One style at a time. Picking another style replaces the first. You can add as many components as you like.

Questions

Can I change a style?

Ask Montage in a video, for example « In our style, make the captions bigger ». It rewrites the style in your Library.

What happens to my videos if I delete a style?

It leaves the Library. Videos that use it keep their own copy.

Who sees my styles?

Everyone in your workspace: the Library is the team’s.
