How to generate video from text

01

Write your scene

Describe what happens in the video — subject, action, environment, mood, camera movement, and style. A single sentence works, but more detail gives better results. Include cinematic language like 'slow dolly forward' or 'dramatic backlighting' for filmmaker-grade output.

02

Choose a video model

Pick from 7+ AI video models. Kling excels at motion and physics. Luma delivers cinematic quality. Runway offers creative flexibility. Veo handles complex scenes. Try multiple models and compare — each has different strengths.

03

Generate and extend

Your video generates in seconds. Extend the clip, regenerate with a different model, or chain multiple clips on the timeline. Add camera movements, sound effects, and music to build complete scenes.
