Lumier Pictures Terms of Service
By accessing or using Lumier Pictures ("the Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. The Service
Lumier Pictures is an AI-assisted film production platform that helps creators write scripts, generate visual content, produce audio, and distribute their work. The Service is provided by Lumier Pictures, Inc.
2. Accounts & Eligibility
- You must be at least 18 years old to create an account.
- You are responsible for all activity under your account.
- You must provide accurate registration information.
- One account per person. Do not share account credentials. Separately agreed organization arrangements are governed by their order terms.
3. Plans, Credits & Billing
Current new-purchase offers, introduced September 7, 2026, are listed below. Existing subscriptions and previously granted trials retain their agreed terms unless the member confirms a change. The remainder of these Terms retains its stated effective date.
Prices are monthly in USD before applicable tax. Paid billing starts when you confirm checkout. Subscription credits expire at the end of the billing period; purchased pack credits do not expire. Existing subscriptions keep their agreed billing terms unless the member confirms a change.
New paid memberships include a separate monthly allowance for Gemini scripts and analysis; usage limits apply. Your account shows the remaining allowance. Image, video and audio generation, along with Claude and Director’s Cut scripts, use production credits. The charge depends on the operation, engine, settings and duration. Review the displayed charge before starting. New media takes and AI media revisions use additional credits. Editing saved material remains available. A timeline limit is editing capacity, not a promise of that many generated minutes.
- Director ($49/month): 800 monthly production credits. Director covers scripts, casting and storyboards; video shots start with Studio. Commercial use is subject to asset and provider terms.
- Studio ($149/month): 3,000 monthly production credits. Up to 4K stills and 1080p video shots. Commercial use is subject to asset and provider terms.
- Production ($449/month): 10,000 monthly production credits. Up to 4K stills and 1080p video shots. Commercial use is subject to asset and provider terms.
- Cinema ($1,299/month): 30,000 monthly production credits. Up to 4K stills and 1080p video shots. Commercial use is subject to asset and provider terms.
- Booster ($35 once for members, $42 without a membership): 500 non-expiring purchased credits.
- Reel Pack ($85 once for members, $102 without a membership): 1,500 non-expiring purchased credits.
- Production Pack ($259 once for members, $310.80 without a membership): 5,000 non-expiring purchased credits.
Credit packs are one-time purchases and their credits do not expire: Booster (500 credits) $35 for members or $42 without a membership, Reel Pack (1,500 credits) $85 for members or $102 without a membership, Production Pack (5,000 credits) $259 for members or $310.80 without a membership. Members keep their membership's capabilities, so a pack adds capacity but no new engines. Without a membership, a pack costs 20% more and renders with Studio-level capabilities (Seedance video up to 1080p, 4K stills, commercial use) while its credits last.
Develop a script and 2K storyboard stills in a one-time guided evaluation with up to 150 introductory credits. No credit card required. Generation limits apply; the allowance does not renew. It also includes one free, watermarked 5-second video shot at 720p. More video and audio need a membership (video from Studio) or a credit pack. Evaluation access is for personal assessment. This replaces the seven-day offer for new accounts; previously granted trials retain their original allowance and end date. Existing non-expiring purchased credits remain valid.
Purchasing a paid plan starts monthly billing when you confirm payment; it does not start another free evaluation. You may cancel at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. We offer a 14-day money-back guarantee on first-time paid subscriptions. Contact legal@lumierpictures.com within 14 days of your first charge.
Paid memberships permit commercial use subject to the selected model, uploaded materials and asset licenses. You are responsible for the necessary rights and permissions. An account membership does not clear third-party rights.
4. Content & Intellectual Property
You retain ownership of all content you create with the Service, meaning scripts, generated images, videos, and audio, subject to the license terms of your plan (personal or commercial). Output produced during free evaluation may not be used for commercial purposes without upgrading; applicable third-party rights and license conditions continue to apply.
AI-generated content may not be eligible for copyright registration under current law in some jurisdictions. You are responsible for understanding the IP implications in your territory.
You grant Lumier Pictures, Inc. a limited, non-exclusive license to process your content through AI systems solely for the purpose of delivering the Service. We do not use your content to train our AI models without your explicit consent.
5. Acceptable Use
- Do not use the Service to generate content that is illegal, defamatory, or violates third-party rights.
- Do not attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or abuse the API beyond your plan's rate limits.
- Do not generate content depicting minors in sexual situations, real people without consent, or content designed to deceive.
- Do not share your account credentials or attempt to circumvent plan limits.
6. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS." LUMIER PICTURES, INC. MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
7. Changes & Termination
We may update these Terms with 30 days' notice. Continued use after notice constitutes acceptance. We may terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
8. Our Intellectual Property
The Service belongs to Lumier Pictures, Inc. and its licensors. That covers the software and source code; the interface and its design; the production workflows; the prompts, prompt assembly and model instructions; the way work is routed between AI models; the curated libraries of talent, locations, props, wardrobe, gear and genre craft, including how they are selected and arranged; the stock plates and stills; the documentation; and the Lumier Pictures names and marks.
We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to use the Service for your own productions, including client work where your plan permits commercial use, for as long as you follow these Terms. You may not sublicense it.
These Terms do not transfer any of our intellectual property to you. Section 4 covers what you make with the Service; it does not give you any ownership of the Service itself, the libraries or the stock items. All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved.
9. Restrictions on Use
These restrictions apply to everyone who uses the Service or visits the site, with or without an account. They are in addition to section 5, and none of them depends on a plan’s rate limits. You may not, and may not help anyone else to:
- Reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Service, or extract or attempt to extract prompts, model instructions or source code from the site, its files or its network traffic.
- Scrape, bulk download or systematically copy the libraries, the stock catalog, or their descriptions and images, by any means.
- Access the Service with bots, scripts or other automated tools, except through interfaces we publish for that purpose. Search engines and AI assistants may index and cite the public pages as robots.txt allows.
- Use the Service, the libraries or the stock items to build, train or benchmark a competing product, service or AI model.
- Resell or rent access to the Service, or share an account or its sign-in details beyond the seats it includes. An account is for one person unless an organization order says otherwise.
- Circumvent or attempt to circumvent plan limits, credit metering, evaluation watermarks, access controls, or safety and content filters.
If you break any of these restrictions, we may suspend your access or terminate your account immediately, and pursue any other remedy the law allows, including a court order to stop the conduct.
Your obligations under this section and under sections 8, 11 and 12 continue after your account is closed or these Terms end.
Nothing in this section limits your right to review or criticize the Service, or any right the law gives you that a contract cannot take away.
10. Visitors & Public Pages
These Terms also apply to people who use the public site without an account. By browsing the site, loading its pages and files, or opening a public film, profile or review link, you agree to these Terms, including sections 8 and 9. If you do not agree, do not use the site.
The public pages, and the files your browser downloads to show them, are provided so that you can view the site and use the Service. Downloading or reading those files does not give you any right to copy, reuse or publish the code, prompts, library data or images they contain.
11. Stock Library License
The Service includes library items: stock actors and characters, locations and sets, props, wardrobe, vehicles, animals, set dressing, gear presets and plates. This section is the license for them.
You may:
- Cast, place and use library items in the images, video and audio you generate with the Service.
- Publish and distribute that output, and use it commercially where sections 3 and 4 permit commercial use.
- Keep using output you have already made after your membership ends.
You may not:
- Extract library items from the Service or copy them out in bulk, apart from what appears in your own productions and their production documents.
- Redistribute, sell, license or give away a library item on its own, or as part of a stock library, asset pack, template or dataset.
- Use library items to train an AI model or to stock another product.
The license is non-exclusive. Other members can use the same library items, so their output may resemble yours. Owning your output under section 4 does not make you the owner of a library item that appears in it; where section 4 and this section differ about a library item, this section applies. The asset and provider terms mentioned in section 3 continue to apply.
12. Your Content & Publishing
Your scripts, uploads and output remain yours as section 4 describes, subject to the terms of the AI model providers used to generate them and to the rights of anyone whose material you used.
Publishing is your choice. When you publish content to the Lumier Club or a public profile, or share it through a review link, you grant Lumier Pictures, Inc. a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, convert between formats, and publicly display and perform that content within the Service and at the link you shared. The license exists only to run those features. It does not let us use your content in our own advertising, or license it to anyone else, without your separate permission. It ends when you unpublish or delete the content, though copies may remain in backups that are not publicly displayed.
Each time you publish or share, you confirm that:
- You own the content or hold every right needed to publish it, including rights in any script, music, footage, image, brand or other third-party material in it.
- Every real person whose face, likeness or voice appears in it, or was used to generate it, has given the permission the law requires.
- The content follows these Terms and does not infringe or violate anyone’s rights.
You are responsible for what you publish. We may remove or restrict content that appears to break these Terms or that is the subject of a complaint under section 13.
13. Copyright Complaints
We respond to notices of claimed copyright infringement, including notices sent under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a written notice to legal@lumierpictures.com with “Copyright notice” in the subject line. The notice must include:
- Your physical or electronic signature, or that of the person authorized to act for the copyright owner.
- The copyrighted work you say has been infringed.
- The content you say is infringing and where it is on the Service, with the web address of each item.
- Your name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
- A statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act for the owner.
When a notice is complete, we remove or disable access to the content promptly and tell the member who posted it. That member may send a counter-notice to the same address if they believe the content was removed by mistake or misidentification. A counter-notice must include:
- The member’s physical or electronic signature.
- The content that was removed and where it appeared before removal.
- A statement under penalty of perjury that the member believes in good faith the content was removed by mistake or misidentification.
- The member’s name, postal address and telephone number, and a statement that they consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for their address (or, if they are outside the United States, of any judicial district in which Lumier Pictures, Inc. may be found) and will accept service of process from the person who sent the notice.
We send a complete counter-notice to the person who complained. We may restore the content 10 to 14 business days later, unless that person tells us they have filed a court action to keep it down.
We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of members who repeatedly infringe. Anyone who knowingly makes a false statement in a notice or counter-notice may be liable for the damages it causes.
14. AI-Generated Content
Everything the Service generates is produced by AI models: images, video, voices, dialogue, music and sound. Output is not always marked with a visible label or watermark that says so.
Wherever you publish, broadcast, submit or sell your work, you are responsible for any disclosure or label that the law, or the platform, broadcaster, festival, marketplace or client involved, requires for AI-generated work.
Do not use output to make anyone believe that a real person said or did something they did not.
15. Money-Back Guarantee
This section explains how the 14-day money-back guarantee in section 3 works. It covers the first charge of a first-time paid subscription. It does not cover renewals, later subscriptions or one-time credit packs.
To claim it, write to legal@lumierpictures.com from the account’s email address within 14 days of that first charge. The refund is the amount you paid for the first period, minus the value of the production credits the account has used. We work out that value as the share of the period’s monthly credits that were spent, applied to the amount paid.
When we refund a subscription under the guarantee, the subscription is canceled and its unused monthly credits end.
This section does not limit any refund or cancellation right the law gives you that a contract cannot take away.
