Free AI Video Generator Online Sites Review

Today, artificial technology is everywhere. We've talked a lot about AI creating tools and even AI builders, but what about AI video generators?

When you hear about AI video maker, you might feel a little confused. What kind of input do they need and what are the outcomes? In this post, we'll answer all these questions and provide you with a list of  popular free AI video generators so you can try the technique yourself. Now let's start it.

AI video maker or video generator mainly creates videos based on text as well as images, audio files and other sources. Most generators even offer a wide range of avatars (real person presenters) so you don't need to be in the video. This is the fastest and great for online video content generator who doesn’t want to show the face.

Here are some of popular online AI video generating websites providing free services with some limitations. The score is my personal opinions based on free plan.

    • video2x tool 

Steps:
  1. Enter a topic to generate scripts. For example, how to execute a vulnerability scanning


  2. After a couple of seconds, it will auto generate an article for you.


  3. You might want to replace article with video and change delay time to 1.5s for short slides since it will be your title slide. 
  4. If you are not happy with 788 words, and want more contents, you will need to go back to AI script bulider to change settings. 


  5. The long script will be around 1250 words (10 minutes). The medium will be around 750 words (7 minutes).
  6. tips: I like to use AI script builder to generate a long script which is good for 10 minutes. Then copy back to original generate screen since it will give me a good title and meaningful decription. Only thing I will need to change is to replace an  article word with video. Also make sure 1.5s for your short slides.
  7. Now you can click button to create a new video.


  8. You can generate a preview to watch the theme effect. You also can change to other theme you like and apply to all slides.
  9. You migh also want to use an experimental feature to add some auto-match media (photo or video) to replace your current media (text)


  10. Use all kinds of keywords relating to your slide content to search media (Videos and Photos) then replace it. 
  11. Finally, once you satisfy the preview, you can start to render it, which will take some time to be done. You can close browser and wait email for confirmation.

Other steps.
  1. Since it is 360p, you might want to enlarge video to 720p


  2. It is a long content, about 1250 words. You might want to add caption. 
  3. Once caption added using 剪影 (capcut.cn), save it as 720p or 1080.
    • Will suggest to maintain the same size for caption text, but you can add special effect in, such as printer effects and 


  4. Last step is to import it into flexclip site to add sound tracks, intro and outro. Then export it to 1080p and automatically upload to youtube.
    • from 剪影 (capcut.cn), you can directly add the music in since most of video is about 3 minutes, it will be easier to find a pre-bulit in music to add into video. Make sure the sound volumn has been reduced to a minimum level.
