"You would never have imagined that AI illustration video tools could play like this.
Nowadays, when making Short Video, no one uses AI. Especially the illustration style, the cost is low and the effect is good. But many people can't use it well, either too fake or too rigid. In fact, the key is to choose the right tool and master a few skills.
I have seen a lot of news recently, such as the news of the cooperation between Coze and Midjourney. What does this mean? This shows that AI tools are becoming more and more professional and are specifically optimized for video production. Think about it, in the past, when you made your own illustration videos, you had to be able to draw and understand editing. Now AI is all inclusive.
So how do you choose tools specifically? Let's first look at the generation speed. Fast tools are like Runway, which can produce pictures in a few seconds. Slow as Stable Diffusion, it may take a few minutes. Short Video, time is life, don't choose too slow ones.
Secondly, look at the diversity of styles. Some tools only have one style of painting, such as cartoon or realism. But Short Video need to be changeable. Today, science fiction will be practiced, and tomorrow, ancient style will be practiced. So when selecting a tool, try it more and see if you can switch styles.
It is also important to see whether the tool supports video editing. For example, Runway can directly add special effects to the generated illustrations. However, some tools can only generate static images and have to be edited with other software, which is very troublesome.
Use AI to make illustration videos, don't just think about generating them with one click. Try more keywords. For example,"Cyberpunk city, neon lights flashing" is much better than simply saying "city". The more specific the keywords, the easier it will be for AI to understand.
In addition, duplication of material is a big problem. AI can easily generate similar pictures. The solution is very simple. Save a few after each generation and use different material combinations. For example, this character is matched with that background, so that the video will not be too monotonous.
Many people now use Coze Workflows to connect AI in series. For example, use Midjourney to draw illustrations first, and then use clipping and editing. This is efficient and maintains consistency. But note that the more complex the workflow, the higher the probability of errors.
If you are new, it is recommended to start easily. For example, Pika Labs specializes in AI animations, which is simple to operate and has good results. When you are proficient, try more complex combinations.
Be practical. AI tools are updated quickly, and they are easy to use today and may be average tomorrow. So don't stick to one tool and pay more attention to industry trends. For example, see which new tools have been released and which old tools have been upgraded.
In short, choosing the right tool is the first step to make AI illustration videos. Then practice matching keywords and materials more. Don't forget that AI is just an aid, and creativity depends on yourself. "
