"Can your video script turn itself into a video?
Nowadays, there are more and more tools on the Internet that can directly convert scripts to videos. They use artificial intelligence technology to help you write words into pictures. For example, the workflow of the Coze platform can help you automatically generate video content.
The biggest advantage of using such tools is saving time. In the past, when making videos by yourself, you had to write scripts first, then find materials and edit them. Now you are in one step, enter the script, and the machine will automatically match the picture and dub.
But you have to look carefully at the choice of tools. Some tools only focus on generation, regardless of quality. The accompanying pictures may not match the content, and the sound may be dry. For example, someone recently used a certain tool to make travel videos, but the results were all urban landscapes, which was far from the theme of "Rural Travels".
A truly reliable tool will intelligently match materials. For example, when it comes to "seaside", it will automatically find beach waves. When it comes to "office", computer workstations appear. This way the video will be real.
There is also dubbing. A good tool can adjust the tone according to the script. Raise your voice when you say you are happy, and slow down when you say you are serious. Some tools even support different languages, including English and French.
But then again, no matter how good machine generation is, it has limitations. For example, the screen switching is too mechanical and the transition is stiff. At this time, manual fine-tuning is necessary. Delete the unnatural scenes and add some transitional effects.
Many Short Video bloggers are using such tools nowadays. Some people do product evaluation, and others do knowledge popularization. They found that the machine-generated first draft was enough, and the effect would be better if they added their own creativity.
For example, some bloggers use scripts to turn videos to make food tutorials. The machine served ordinary dishes, and he manually replaced them with dishes from his own restaurant. The background music given by the machine was dull, so he changed it to a pop song. As a result, the number of clicks on the video increased several times.
Therefore, tools are aids and cannot be relied on all of them. You also have to understand the rhythm of the video, know where to leave blank space and where to add subtitles. For example, when talking about key data, large characters appear on the screen to make it more eye-catching.
There is a recent trend in the industry that combines tools and labor. For example, use AI to generate the first edition first, and then ask the editor to polish it. This is fast and quality. There is a team in Singapore that does this, specifically creating content for TikTok accounts.
If you are just starting out making videos, try these tools. Choose one that supports Chinese, enter your script and try it. Maybe a first edition will be out in a few minutes.
Don't covet full automation. Videos generated by tools often require secondary creation. Add a real-life appearance, or insert your own footage. In this way, the basic content of the machine becomes warm.
Nowadays, video platforms are increasingly emphasizing originality. Purely machine-generated content can easily be judged to be duplicate. Therefore, tools can only be used as assistants, not main forces.
Be honest. Read the evaluation before using the tool. Videos generated by some tools will be restricted by the platform. For example, the picture resolution is low, or there is a problem with music copyright.
In short, the script to video tool can help you get started. But if you want to make a hit, you still have to think about it yourself. Machines can save time, but not creativity. "
