"This guy is causing trouble again.
Recently, many people have asked me how to use AI to make Short Video. It's actually pretty simple. AI can now help you complete the entire process from scripting to filming. For example, if you use Coze to build a workflow, AI can automatically generate video scripts, and can also help you find soundtrack and edit material.
But be aware that not all AI tools are suitable for making videos. The scripts generated by some tools are too stiff and can be embarrassing to use them directly. For example, there was a customer who used AI to write scripts with the words "empowerment" and "ecology", and the audience couldn't stand listening to it. So when selecting a tool, you have to see whether the script it generates is natural enough.
There are several good AI video tools on the market now. Runway, for example, can generate video clips with one click and help you adjust the style of the picture. There is also Picture, which is suitable for making commentary videos and can be automatically provided with subtitles. What these tools have in common is that they can all turn your text scripts into videos, saving a lot of manual time.
But AI is not everything. For example, if you want to shoot a video of a character appearing on the scene, AI cannot help. At this time, you have to take the material yourself and then use AI tools to edit it. Also, AI-generated video footage is sometimes repeated, such as using the same action too much and making it look fake. So when using AI to make videos, you have to add some real-life clips to make the videos more realistic.
Another trick is to give as detailed instructions as much as possible when using AI to generate videos. For example, if you ask AI to generate an "office work scene", it may give you some very ordinary pictures. But if you say,"A young man is working on a computer in a cafe and the sun shines in," the picture generated by AI will be much more specific. The clearer the details, the better the results of AI generation.
Nowadays, many Internet celebrities are using AI to make videos. For example, the food blogger with millions of fans, his video scripts were written by AI, but he would add some humorous conversations himself to make the video more interesting. So AI is just a tool, and the key is whether you can use it well.
If you are just starting to use AI to make videos, you can start with something simple. For example, use AI to generate a 15-second Short Video with your voice. This way, you can be familiar with the tools and see the effects. When you are proficient, try more complex videos.
A word of caution, AI-generated videos cannot completely replace real-life production. For example, emotional expression and interactive effects cannot be achieved by these AI. Therefore, when making videos, you still need to combine real-life shooting and AI tools to create content that the audience likes. "
