Source Policy

Source policy controls what types of media Kinema can use.

Last updated July 15, 2026

#Source types

Source policy appears after you press Generate. It is a quick checklist of the media types Kinema is allowed to use for the project, so the build follows the rules you set.

  • Stock footage and Stock Images are useful for general visuals.
  • Sourced Footage and Sourced Images are useful for specific people, places, events, or documents.
  • Generated Images are useful when no suitable real visual exists.
  • Graphics enables Kinema’s designed catalog (titles, name plates, stat counters, quotes, documents, real satellite maps, charts, timelines, and more), placed where the narration calls for them.
  • Music is usually enabled by default.

#Review responsibility

Kinema can help source and stage assets, but the creator is responsible for reviewing factual claims, usage rights, licenses, and publishing compliance.
