How do I make a video with AI?

Short answer

Describe the video in a prompt, or give the AI pictures to animate, and it generates a short clip. In Cutlin you can make a video from text, from your pictures - the first opens it, the last closes it - or by changing a video you already have. Cutlin picks the model from those ticked in Settings; pick a style or leave it on Auto. One chat holds pictures and videos together, so you can ask for a video after a picture.

The ways to make an AI video, and which to choose.

Three ways to start

Text is the quickest way to start; pictures give you the most control over how the video looks.

Text to video: describe the scene, the action and the camera
From pictures: the first opens, the last closes, and up to 8 keyframes sit in between
Change the video: an MP4 or MOV of up to 100 MB and 30 seconds, changed by a prompt

Length, shape and style

With Kling, videos run from 3 to 30 seconds, in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 21:9, or the same shape as your first picture. With Gemini Omni, from 3 to 15 seconds in 16:9 or 9:16. A style sets the look, and Auto leaves it to your prompt.
