How to Make Video Using AI

by

Making videos using AI has become remarkably straightforward, thanks to specialized tools designed for scriptwriting, visual generation, voiceovers, and editing. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to create a complete AI-generated video:

Step 1: Generate the Script & Concept

Before generating visuals, you need a clear script and narrative.

  • Tools: Google Gemini, ChatGPT, or Claude.
  • How to do it: Prompt the AI with your topic, target audience, preferred video length, and tone. Ask it to break the script down into scene-by-scene descriptions alongside the audio dialogue.

Step 2: Create the Visuals or Generate AI Video Clips

Depending on your project, you can generate video clips directly from text or animate still images.

  • Direct AI Video Generation: Tools like Google Veo, Runway (Gen-2 / Gen-3), Luma Dream Machine, Sora, or Pika allow you to enter text descriptions (e.g., “cinematic drone shot of a misty mountain at sunrise”) to generate realistic, high-definition video clips.
  • AI Image-to-Video: Generate still images first using tools like Midjourney, DALL-E 3, or Imagen, then use an AI video generator to add motion to those images.

Step 3: Generate Voiceovers & Audio

Add natural-sounding voice tracks and background music.

  • AI Voiceover Tools: ElevenLabs, Murf.ai, or Play.ht can convert your text script into realistic voiceovers in various accents, tones, and languages.
  • AI Music Generators: Tools like Suno or Udio can compose custom, royalty-free background tracks based on text prompts (e.g., “upbeat acoustic guitar background music”).

Step 4: Assemble & Edit (Text-to-Video All-in-One Editors)

If you prefer an all-in-one approach where AI handles script, voiceover, stock visuals, and subtitles simultaneously, platform editors streamline the entire workflow.

  • All-in-One Platforms: InVideo AI, CapCut, Synthesia (for AI human avatars), or HeyGen.
  • How to do it: Paste your script into the editor, select a visual style or avatar, and let the tool automatically generate captions, select relevant footage, and sync the audio.
