AI has a big impact on how to create films, and many tools have emerged. Here's a list of the best AI tools for filmmaking, including idea generation, screenwriting, music, image, and video generation.
is one of the first AI Image Generation for generating very realistic images and is being developed by an independent research lab.
An interesting feature of Midjourney is that it allows to zoom in, zoom out, or pan on the generated image which could be useful to simulate camera movements.
Midjourney used to be available from Discord but it seems they now offer a web app (alpha).
from Stability AI is an AI Model that generates images from text prompts. The most advanced model is Stable Diffusion XL which can generate a broad range of images.
is one of the most advanced Text-to-speech and AI Voice generators, that allows you to generate AI voices from text. One of the most interesting features is you can clone any voice and have control over it.
Here's for example a voice you'll probably recognize from the movie Her:
ElevenLabs also allows you to generate sound effects:
is a very impressive tool to generate music from a text prompt.
Suno generates a wide range of music style and most are really listenable. You can also have complete control over the lyrics, or generate instrumentals.
Here's an example of a music generated with Suno 3.5 and the following prompt "
The great thing about Sudio is you can extend, remix or inpaint sounds.
Here a jazz music I got with the prompt A detective story solving the mystery of missing socks, film noir jazz which would make a perfect soundtrack for a Film noir.
is another AI Music generation tool. However it does not currently offer text-to-music generation, but you can pick from a style and have control over the composition (duration, specific key, ...)
Here's an example generated from a Solo Piano in C Minor :
Lofi Ambiant in Db Major :
Aiva sounds more like MIDI and is less impressive than Suno, but can sometimes have a certain style.
