AI video generation is a technology that creates a video clip from a text description, without filming, editing, or stock footage. You write a prompt, the AI generates a video with the objects, motion, and atmosphere you described. Everything works in your browser, and the result is ready in minutes.
What is AI Video Generation
AI video generation is the process of creating a video clip from a text description using a diffusion model. The neural network understands the prompt, generates a sequence of frames, and combines them into a video. Unlike stock footage or manual filming, AI creates a unique clip for a specific request — no cameras, actors, or editing required.
In MindlyFlow, video generation works through the LTX Video model: you write a scene description and get a video clip. Price: from 8 tokens per generation.
What You Can Create with AI Video Generation
| Scenario | Example Prompt | Result |
|---|---|---|
| City scene | “Neon Tokyo at night, rain, reflections in puddles” | Atmospheric clip with neon lighting |
| Nature | “Waves at dawn, slow camera, 4K” | Smooth flight over the sea at sunrise |
| Sports | “Sports car on a mountain road, sunset” | Dynamic scene with motion |
| Abstract | “Liquid metal flows, golden light, slow-mo” | Abstract animation with metallic shine |
| Interior | “Cozy room with fireplace, soft light, snow outside” | Warm scene with a cozy atmosphere |
| Food | “Chocolate drizzle on dessert, close-up, studio light” | Appetizing shot for advertising |
How to Generate Video from Text: Step by Step
- Open the video editor — the “Create Video” section on mindlyflow.ru
- Write a prompt — describe the scene in one or two sentences. What happens, where, what lighting, what camera movement
- Click “Create” — the neural network generates the video in 1–5 minutes
- Download the clip — the finished video in MP4 format is available in your dashboard
How to Write a Prompt for Video Generation
A good prompt describes four elements: subject, action, environment, and style. The more specific each one is, the more accurate the result.
Prompt Structure
[Subject] + [Action] + [Environment/background] + [Lighting] + [Style/quality]
Examples
Good prompt:
Waves at dawn, slow camera flying over the water surface, warm golden light, 4K, cinematic quality
Bad prompt:
Sea
Good prompt:
City street in the rain, neon signs, reflections in puddles, camera moving along the street, slow motion, atmospheric
Bad prompt:
Beautiful city
Key Phrases That Improve Results
| Phrase | Effect |
|---|---|
cinematic camera movement |
Smooth camera motion like in movies |
slow motion |
Slow-motion filming |
4K quality |
High level of detail |
soft lighting |
Soft, diffused lighting |
golden hour |
Warm sunset/sunrise light |
shallow depth of field |
Blurred background, focus on subject |
AI Video Generation vs Stock Footage
| Criterion | Neural Network | Stock Video Sites |
|---|---|---|
| Uniqueness | Each clip created for your request | One clip used by hundreds of people |
| Time | 1–5 minutes to generate | 30–60 minutes to search and buy |
| Cost | From 8 tokens | From $5 per clip |
| Flexibility | Any scene via prompt | Limited by catalog |
| Resolution | Up to 4K | Depends on platform |
| License | Full rights to the result | Stock license restrictions |
Bottom line: AI is better for unique content tailored to a specific task. Stock footage is faster when you need a standard shot (hands typing on keyboard, office scene).
What to Use AI Video Generation For
- Social media content — unique clips for Reels, Shorts, TikTok without filming
- Advertising — video inserts for landing pages, product scenes without production
- YouTube — intros, B-roll, atmospheric inserts between segments
- Presentations — video for pitches and investor materials
- Creative projects — music clips, experiments, art video
Frequently Asked Questions
What resolution does the generated video have?
Depends on generation parameters. Base resolution is 720p, with 4K requested in the prompt — up to 3840×2160. The higher the resolution, the longer the generation and the more tokens required.
Can I generate a video with a specific person?
To generate with a specific face, use the DeepFake tool — it substitutes a face from an uploaded photo onto the source material. Text-to-video generation creates scenes without reference to specific people.
How long is the generated video?
Standard length is 5–10 seconds. This is a short atmospheric clip that can be used as an intro, B-roll, or editing element. For longer videos, generate multiple fragments and combine them in an editor.
Which is better: video generation or photo animation?
If you have a finished photo that needs to be “brought to life” — use photo animation. If you need new footage from scratch — use text-to-video generation. Animation works with an existing image; generation creates a scene from scratch.
Can I use the generated video commercially?
Yes. Generation results can be used in commercial projects: advertising, social media, presentations. Rights to generated content belong to you.
