What is an AI video generator?

An AI video generator creates a short video clip from a written description, or animates a still image that becomes the first frame. You describe the subject, the action and the camera, and the model renders the shot.

Image to Video AI runs the model for you in the browser, with no installs, footage or editing skills required.

How to write a video prompt

Video prompts work best when they read like a line from a shot list: one subject, one action, one camera move.

  • Subject and action: who is on screen and what happens
  • Setting: place, weather and time of day
  • Light and mood: golden hour, neon night, overcast
  • Camera: dolly-in, pan, orbit, drone, handheld
  • For image to video: describe only the motion

What makes an image-to-video prompt work?

Describe movement that can happen inside the frame: a slow push-in, wind in the leaves, a person turning or light moving across a surface. Keep the request focused so the first frame stays recognizable.
