AI Video Generator

An AI video generator, sometimes called an AI video maker, turns a text prompt or a still image into video. Instead of filming or animating by hand, you describe the shot or upload a picture and the model generates moving footage, from quick AI animation to cinematic shots. The two paths that matter most are text-to-video, where a prompt becomes a clip, and image-to-video, where an existing photo or frame starts to move.

Mage is a free-to-start AI image and video generator that does both, right in your browser. Generate a clip from a prompt, or bring a still to life with image-to-video, using Mage's exclusive video models. Unlimited video starts on the Pro plan, on the models and lengths each plan covers, and every model also runs on Gems.

Because Mage is one platform for image and video, a character you build in an image can move in a video, and on the top tier you can drive movement with Motion Control. It is the full path from a prompt or a photo to a finished, downloadable clip.

A video prompt needs everything an image prompt needs, plus time. Say who is in the shot and where, then say what happens, in order, and what the camera does while it happens. 'A skater carves down a sunlit street, the camera tracking low beside the wheels, then he kicks up the board and grins at the lens' gives the model a beginning, a middle and an end.

Keep one clip to one idea. Short clips with a single clear action come out cleaner than a paragraph of events, and you can join them afterwards: Storyboard combines up to six clips into one MP4. For longer stories, Story Studio writes and films a whole sequence of scenes from one prompt, paid in Gems.

Each kind of video has its own guide: text to video for prompt-only clips, AI animation for cartoon and claymation looks, the AI movie generator for multi-scene stories, and the AI video editor for changing a clip you already have.

• Name the camera move: tracking, dolly in, crane up, whip pan, handheld.
• Give the action an order: first this, then that.
• Draft short and at a low resolution, then rerun the keeper at full quality.
• Reuse a saved character by @handle so the lead looks the same in every clip.
