Use Cases

What You Can Create With This AI Video Generator

Most people start with one of these. Each one works from a short written prompt, a photo, or both.

Advanced

Prefer to Pick the Engine Yourself?

You don't have to. The generator picks sensible defaults, so you can simply describe what you want. If you like to fine-tune, you can switch the underlying video model before you generate.

Two Ways to Start

Text to Video or Image to Video?

Both routes give you a finished clip. The difference is how much of the look you want to control from the start.

Start from text when you have an idea but no picture yet: you describe the subject, the action, the camera move and the mood, and the AI video generator builds the whole scene. Start from a photo when the look already exists — a product shot, a portrait, an illustration — and you only want to add movement. Many people combine the two: they create a still image first, then animate it.

How It Works

How to Make an AI Video in 3 Steps

Setup takes about a minute. Render time depends on the length and resolution you choose.

  1. 01

    Choose text or photo

    Pick Text to Video to start from a written idea, or Image to Video to animate a photo you already have.

  2. 02

    Describe what should happen

    Write the subject, the action, the camera move and the mood. For a photo, describe how it should move. Short, concrete sentences work best.

  3. 03

    Set length and format, then generate

    Choose the duration and aspect ratio — 9:16 for social, 16:9 for widescreen — check the credit cost and click Generate. Download the result or try another version.
