Context
Online applications such as Dall-E, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion allow us to create images (often pretty good ones) from just a series of prompts. Video is the next frontier in the art of generative AI. We’re not yet at the point where we can simply describe a story and watch AI make a movie or TV series, or even create animations that come close to still image generator quality. But AI can make compelling short pieces of content for entertainment, education, training, or marketing by finding and combining videos, images, and music, and then generating voiceovers – all based on your script. Some applications can even write scripts for you.

Analysis
There is no shortage of applications that provide these capabilities. We’ve put together a list of five of the best AI video generators for you based on initial testing, features, user popularity, and price options. The best apps do the most work for you. The first step is to select the right material from their clip library based on your script. We tested this by writing an educational video script for the ancient city of Petra in Jordan (a UNESCO World Heritage site and popular movie set) that is between one and two minutes long, depending on the app. Even the best people only get it right half the time. If the word “Petra” appears in a line of a script, the application will usually find a clip that fits the scene. They have a hard time keeping the context – “remembering” to find the part of the Petra scene without that word (even though it appears in the title of every video we generate). Other AI-generated features depend heavily on taste: you may or may not like the music and sounds the app chooses or the fonts it chooses for subtitles. However, some programs have a more natural AI sound than others.
Key Points
- AI can create compelling short pieces of content for entertainment, education, training, or marketing by finding and combining videos, images, and music and then generating voiceovers – all based on your script.
- The best apps offer complete, intuitive editing controls – allowing you to easily adjust audio levels, set clip lengths, change output size and resolution, adjust sound, and crop, pan, and zoom in on scenes.
