AI VIDEO
And the Best AI Video Generator is…
We've pulled together a mix of AI video generator tools, so you won't have to sift through the tech jungle yourself. Here is the lowdown on each, stripped of the fluff:
1. Stable Video Diffusion: Stable Video Diffusion promises smooth, brief video clips from your text or image prompts, but it’s still just a glimpse of what’s to come. It's still in the experimental stage, which means it’s more suited for tech enthusiasts eager to explore the cutting edge of AI. Think of it as a peek into the future of AI video.
2. Runway ML: Runway ML is a more established player in the AI video space, ideal for creators who need quick, short video content. For a monthly fee, it elevates your video quality, removes watermarks, and reduces wait times significantly. It is particularly useful for those who need consistent output without compromising on the aesthetic quality of their videos—a solid choice for regular content creators.
3. Pika 1.0: Although lacking a standalone app, Pika 1.0 shines in its versatility. Available through a Discord bot, it offers a variety of video editing tools – from transforming existing videos to creating new ones from text. Its multifaceted capabilities suit users who enjoy experimenting with different styles and formats.
4. Emu Video: AsMeta's foray into AI video generation, Emu Video is currently more of a research tool than a product. However, it’s trained on an impressively large dataset, which suggests significant potential in future iterations. For now, it is a tool to watch, especially for those interested in the evolution of AI in media production.
5. Canva AI Video: Canva AI Video, leveraging RunwayML's tech, is a boon for Canva users. It's easy and straightforward, but remember, it's part of a paid package. It simplifies the video creation, allowing users to generate videos from text descriptions. Great for those already invested in the Canva ecosystem.
