"This video can fool real people.
Want to use AI to make ultra-realistic videos? It's not hard now. Many people think that AI videos are just robots reading scripts, and the pictures are stuck like PPT. In fact, the latest technology can already have the effect of deceiving even expressions.
You only need an ordinary mobile phone to get started. The first step is to choose the right tool. There are software on the market that specializes in making AI videos, such as Runway's Gen-2 and the popular Pika in China. These tools don't require you to know programming, just be able to type.
I know a friend who makes TikTok, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do it at first. Later, it was discovered that as long as the text was written in dialogue form, AI could automatically generate lip-synching characters. For example, by writing "Hello everyone, I will teach you to cook today", AI can match the mouth shape of a real person.
The key is to keep the script simple. AI is not a human being. It does not understand the tone of human speech. Therefore, when writing a manuscript, it is best to have no more than 15 words in each sentence. For example,"prepare the ingredients". Instead of "First of all, please make sure that all cooking materials are ready."
Background is also important. When AI makes videos, complex backgrounds are prone to mistakes. It is recommended to use a solid background, such as pure white or black. In this way, it is easier for AI to process and the picture will naturally be smoother.
The sound part can be recorded yourself or dubed with AI. Now the AI sound library is becoming more and more real. I have tried several Chinese dubbing, and some even pause like real people. However, it should be noted that AI sounds sometimes get stuck and the speed needs to be adjusted manually.
If you want to make a video of bringing goods, it is recommended to use a real person to appear on the scene. Although the AI video is realistic, the audience can still see the flaws. Real people plus AI have the best auxiliary effect. For example, real people only take pictures of the upper body, and the background and props are generated using AI. It saves money and is real.
Recently, there was news that a certain Short Video platform began to use AI to generate virtual anchors. These anchors bring goods live 24 hours a day, and the audience cannot tell the difference between real and fake. This shows that the technology is mature enough to be commercially available on a large scale.
When making AI videos, accumulating material is very important. AI requires a large amount of reference data to generate real pictures. You can collect dozens of pictures of the same type first. For example, if you want to make a food video, you can find various food photos. AI will learn the style of these pictures.
Another technique is segmented production. For example, the video is divided into three parts. The beginning uses a real person, the middle uses AI to generate special effects scenes, and the end cuts back to a real person. This way the audience will not feel awkward.
Now AI video tools are testing new functions internally. For example, automatically generate pictures based on music, or adjust expressions based on emotions. These functions will soon become popular. So now learning AI video production is equivalent to standing at the forefront of technology.
Be practical. The cost of AI video production is much lower than that of real-life shooting. It used to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to shoot a commercial, but now it can be done with AI for thousands of dollars. This is why more and more brands are starting to try.
Want to try AI video? Don't be afraid of not being able to learn. Try a few more times and you'll get started. Now there are free tutorials online, and you will know the process after doing it a few times. Simple is more effective than complex. "
