Text to Video AI

Write a sentence or two describing a scene and get back a short video. Text to Video suits ideas you cannot photograph: a rocket launch, a fantasy landscape, a product floating in space. Choose Kling or MiniMax and 5 or 10 seconds per clip.

Writing a Prompt That Works

1
Start with the subject and setting. “A lighthouse on a cliff at dawn”.
2
Add one camera move. “Slow aerial pull-back”.
3
Add light and mood. “Soft golden light, light mist”.
4
Keep it under a few sentences. Long prompts with several actions tend to be ignored in part.
A lighthouse on a rocky cliff at dawn, waves crash below, slow aerial pull-back, soft golden light and mist. Close-up of a coffee cup on a wooden table, steam rising, shallow depth of field, static camera, warm morning light.

When to Use Image to Video Instead

If you want control over exactly how the first frame looks, make or choose an image first and animate it with Image to Video. Our image-first workflow guide explains why this often saves credits.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does text to video work?

You describe a scene in words, and the model generates a short sequence of frames that matches the description.

How much does a text to video clip cost?

Two credits for 5 seconds and four credits for 10 seconds on Kling 2.5 Turbo Pro, Kling 3.0 Pro or MiniMax H3 Max.

Can text to video make longer videos?

This tool makes 5 and 10-second clips. Seedance 2.5 and Wan 3.0 in the Next-Gen tab make clips up to 30 seconds, and AI Director on the Studio plan builds narrated videos up to 15 minutes.

Why does my video not match my prompt?

Usually the prompt asks for too many things. Ask for one subject, one camera move and one mood, then adjust one thing at a time.

Does text to video include sound?

Not in this tool. Seedance 2.5 and Veo 3.1 generate sound with the video.
