"Want to make AI videos? Don't rush to get started yet. Many people are stuck with "how to do" from the beginning. It's actually not that complicated. Today, let's talk about how to use AI to make our own Short Video.
Let's talk about several ways of playing AI for video making now. The most popular one is to use AI script generation tools. You enter a theme, such as "Wear it in Summer", and AI can create a script for you. This thing is especially suitable for novices. For example, there is a platform called "Coze" that can help you turn ideas into scripts. You don't need to know how to write, it automatically generates dialogues and switches scenes.
But be careful not to believe all the scripts written by AI. I have met many friends who used AI scripts to shoot directly, but the results were particularly fake. Why? Because AI doesn't know your true needs. For example, AI may let you take a "running in the sunset", but your venue is indoors. This is the time to change. My suggestion is that AI scripts should be used as a reference, and you have to add your own things. For example, adding the sentence "There was a sudden power outage" will make the scene live.
Let's talk about video footage. AI is now popular to generate video material. You can type "surfing by the sea" in the tool, and AI will generate a piece of material. It's convenient, but it's easy to do the same. I once saw a blogger who used AI to generate material for all videos, but was complained by fans as "tired of watching it." So don't use AI all to generate it, mix it up with real people. For example, if you shoot delicious food, AI generates the background, and you try it in real people. Only in this way can you be popular.
Editing is another piece. AI editing tools can automatically combine materials into videos. For example,"cutting and screening" now has AI editing functions. You import a bunch of material, and it automatically matches music and adds transitions. But there is a hole here. AI doesn't know which lens is better. I tried it, and it often cuts in blurred shots. So you have to screen it yourself. Pick out the clearest one and let AI edit it.
Recently, there was news that Douyin launched an "AI assistant" to help creators make videos. This thing can automatically recommend scripts and materials based on your account style. For example, if you usually take funny pictures, it will recommend funny material to you. This shows that AI is becoming more and more aware of creators. However, AI is just a tool. One blogger put it well: "AI helps you save time, but you have to think about ideas yourself."
Nowadays, many people use "AI+ real people" to mix and match. For example, AI is used to generate animations at the beginning, and real people appear in the middle. This style is quite popular. I once saw a travel blogger who used AI to generate map animations and live commentary. It worked well. The key is how to combine AI with real people. Don't let AI completely replace you.
Talk about account operation. AI can help you analyze data. For example, which video becomes popular, AI will tell you why. But you have to read it. I know a person who makes a maternal and infant video. AI analyzed that the click rate of "Baby Meals" is high. As a result, he filmed the baby eating every day, and the audience became tired of it. So AI data is a reference, don't believe it all.
In fact, AI is not difficult to make video. The key is that you have to understand AI's shortcomings. For example, AI can't shoot real emotions, you have to appear in person. AI doesn't write grounded scripts, you have to change them yourself. This can be done with a good video. "
