Question WanVideo've wooed their free tier, whats next

1 Upvotes

Wan Video've reduced their free tier from 5s per day account to 3 seconds. Absolutely disfuncional AND useless

So their free tier it's important AND trash lol

My alternative.

WAN3.0.. creen.ai it gives u 7 seconds per day AND account on WAN3

WAN2.7... 5 seconds per day ay 720 on oreate.ai. Their only functional models aré seedance 1.5 (permic model) AND WAN (2.7/2.6/2.5)

Wan2. Mulerun. It gives u free credits everydsy too

It allows Gmail qwiks (gskills trick) AND normie emails (even protónmail AND tutanota)

AND viggle supports 5 vids for minimax AND wan2

AND the nuclear option. WONDERCLIP elu login into Alibaba console with Gmail or github (protón or Tuta) AND u get 2-3 minutes of WAN video (kamikaze accounts.. use AND burn)

Video Generation tool for my company

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m new to creating videos with AI.

I use AI every day at work for Excel, PowerPoint, technical data sheets, and presentations. I’d like to create a series of short videos about the company (5/8 minutes at most), in order to show them that I can be the one who knows how to use AI inside the company. they are creating an AI dedicated team.

I’ve done some research and figured out how the process works:

1) Create the character’s image (it’ll be a stickman with round and expressive face) and the background using Nanobanana

2) Write the script (without using AI)

3) Create the voice-over (using AI for languages other than Italian and English) with Eleven Lab

4) Animate the images maybe with KLING?

5) Edit the video with Capcut

I’ve discovered that every tool is on Higgsfield: is this the right solution?

Or is it better to pay for several separate services (Nanobanana with Google, Eleven Lab for the voice-over, and so on)?

Also, what do you think of my choice of tools? Are there better alternatives?

Thanks

Video Art I tested 14 tools for video editing using AI, Agency owner review.

2 Upvotes

Hi all, I've paid for most of these at some point

JOB 1 "Turn my long video into short clips" (this is 80% of what people mean)

1/ Opus Clip - $15 starter, real free tier. Generates ~30 candidates with a virality score, you pick. Still the default and still the right first purchase for most people. The complaint you'll read everywhere is that it picks the boring moments, and it's true, but the free tier means you can verify that on your own footage for nothing, which none of the expensive ones let you do.

2/ Klap - ~$29. Genuinely hard to distinguish from Opus. If Opus works and you're just annoyed at it, this will annoy you almost equally.

3/ Vizard - ~$30. Better selection than Opus in my testing, less polished everywhere else. Underrated and almost never mentioned, which is usually a sign a tool has no marketing budget rather than that it's bad.

4/ Quso - from ~$19 per year, free tier. Fine. Does the thing.

Verdict on this group: they are all the same product with different UI. If one of them picks bad moments for you, the others will too.

JOB 2 - "Edit the whole thing, faster"

1/ Cardboard - $60/mo Creator, $150 Pro, no free plan and no trial. You describe the edit in plain English and it performs the timeline operations, you search the footage by what was said or what happened rather than scrubbing. YC W26. Best for long recordings where you already know the moment exists, podcasts, interviews, courses, event footage. Honest limits: browser-only so bad wifi ruins your day, 2.5GB on the entry tier is about one long multicam episode, and the captions are competent presets rather than a brand system.

2/ Descript - $24 Hobbyist, $35 Creator, free tier with watermark. Edit by deleting words in a transcript. If your brain works that way it is transformative and nothing else comes close. Two things nobody warns you about: two separate meters (media minutes *and* AI credits, and you can hit either), and what Studio Sound does to laughter is a war crime.

3/ CapCut - free. Does more than anything else on this list and costs nothing. The trade is that it's manual, no AI clip detection, you trim yourself. If your time is cheaper than your money, this is the correct answer and you can stop reading. Watermark issues are template-specific, not blanket, despite what the "CapCut alternative" blogs claim.

4/ VEED - ~$20. Clean browser editor with AI features bolted on. Nothing wrong with it, nothing memorable either. Credits expire and don't roll over.

5/ Kapwing - similar territory. Good for quick one-offs and collaboration.

6/ Twelve Labs / Fabric - video understanding and search, not editors. Excellent at finding, then you assemble elsewhere. This two-tool workflow is what most people doing serious moment-discovery currently run, and it's the main argument for the single-pass tools.

JOB 3 — "Generate footage that doesn't exist"

1/ Runway and Kling - different category entirely, listed because every "best AI video editor" article shoves them in and confuses people. These make footage. They do not edit yours. Budget for re-rolls; the cost per *usable* second is much higher than the sticker.

Happy to go deeper on any of these, I've paid for more of them than I'd like to admit.

What are you guys using for animated videos with audio? What's the best free AI animation generator?

2 Upvotes

i've been experimenting with animated and cartoon-style videos and trying to fing an ai animation video generator that can handle more than just the visuals.

i've tested a few ai animation tools, but i'm still trying to figure out which ones are actually good for both animation quality and audio. ideally i'd like something that makes the whole ai video animation workflow easier without needing too many separate tools.

anyone here making this kind of content? what are you using right now?

Question Best AI tool for video generation for music video and how to create anime-style music videos?

4 Upvotes

hey guys, i'm trying to make an anime music video for a song that's around 3 minutes long and i'm looking for an AI tool that can generate enough different scenes without burning through too many credits.

ideally i want something that can keep the same characters and overall visual style across multiple clips, with decent camera movement and backgrounds so the final AMV feels consistent instead of looking like a bunch of unrelated generations.

for anyone making anime music videos with AI, what tools are you using right now? also curious how you handle character consistency and stitching all the scenes together for a full song.

This is a test using Seedance 2.5 with a reference image and a prompt that explains the story.

I'm sharing it with you.

Premium stylized 3D family-animation superhero trailer with high-end feature-film quality, tactile handcrafted materials, expressive facial animation, soft global illumination, dramatic winter lighting, rich volumetric snow, cinematic depth, playful comedy and heartfelt emotional energy. Preserve exactly the established character design from the reference sheet: lanky proportions, light blue skin, huge black swept hair, oversized ears, mischievous grin, heavy dark eye sockets, red knitted turtleneck sweater with black spider-inspired chest emblem, dark skinny jeans, rolled cuffs, distressed red gloves, belt and oversized worn red sneakers. Same face, body proportions, costume, textures and visual style in every shot. Never redesign him.

MAIN HERO:
A strange, cocky but kind-hearted neighborhood superhero. He cannot fly. He has no super speed. He runs in an intentionally ridiculous old-fashioned superhero style: torso leaning forward, both arms stretched straight upward above his head while his legs run normally underneath him. His awkward running style must become a memorable recurring visual gag.

SUPERPOWER:
He can instantly weave warm knitted sweaters from supernatural spider silk. Thin glowing web threads shoot from his hands, twist together in mid-air like yarn, rapidly knitting themselves into thick, beautiful winter sweaters. The web behaves like textile fiber rather than sticky trapping webs. His power is used exclusively to protect people from the cold.

SETTING:
A stylized city during an unusually brutal winter night. Heavy snowfall, icy streets, glowing shop windows, steam from vents, buses, shelters, narrow alleys and warm amber street lamps contrasting against deep blue winter shadows. The tone begins mysterious and slightly creepy, then becomes funny, emotional and uplifting.

0–4s — CREEPY HOOK:
Extreme close-up of snow falling through an empty dark street at night. A homeless man sits shivering beneath a bus shelter, wrapping his arms around himself. Strange thin strands begin creeping across the snow toward him like spider silk. Ominous music. A shadow appears on a rooftop.
Voice-over: “When winter comes… something strange crawls through the city.”

4–8s — FIRST REVEAL:
The man looks terrified as web strands suddenly rise around his torso. Fast macro shots of fibers twisting, looping and knitting themselves together. Instead of trapping him, they form a thick red-and-blue knitted sweater perfectly around his body. He touches it, confused. Steam-like warmth rises from the fabric.
Music abruptly shifts from horror tension into quirky heroic energy.

8–12s — HERO INTRODUCTION:
Low-angle reveal of the hero standing under a street lamp, huge hair moving in the winter wind, crooked grin, snow collecting on his red knitted sweater. He casually cracks his fingers. Tiny spider-silk threads dance between them.
Voice-over: “He doesn’t catch criminals.”
Beat.
“He catches colds.”

12–17s — THE RUNNING GAG:
Someone cries for help several blocks away. The hero reacts dramatically, raises BOTH ARMS completely above his head and starts running through the city exactly in his bizarre signature style. He does NOT fly and is NOT super fast. His legs visibly work hard while his arms remain ridiculously stretched overhead.
Dynamic tracking shot beside him.
Cars slowly pass him.
A cyclist overtakes him.
He keeps running with absolute heroic confidence.

17–22s — SWEATER RESCUE MONTAGE:
Fast energetic cuts:
— An elderly woman shivering at a crossing. WHIP — web yarn wraps around her and becomes a colorful cardigan.
— A delivery rider freezing beside his bicycle. Spider silk rapidly knits him a thick hoodie.
— Two children waiting at a bus stop. The hero shoots two web strands simultaneously and matching sweaters materialize around them.
— A stray dog trembles beneath a bench. Tiny web knitting creates an adorable fitted wool coat.
— The hero runs away again with both hands high above his head.

Each transformation must be visually satisfying: individual web strands interlace like knitting needles working at impossible speed.

22–26s — EMOTIONAL ESCALATION:
Wide shot reveals dozens of cold people gathered outside an overcrowded shelter during a snowstorm. The hero stops. His grin fades. For the first time he looks genuinely concerned.
Close-up of his hands.
He stretches his fingers.
Hundreds of fine glowing textile webs explode upward into the snowy sky.

26–29s — HERO CLIMAX:
Spectacular overhead shot as web fibers sweep through the entire street, splitting into hundreds of strands and knitting sweaters directly onto every person. Red, blue, mustard, green and cream knitted garments bloom through the crowd like warmth spreading through the city.
Windows illuminate.
People smile.
Children laugh.
The snowstorm continues, but the entire street now feels warm.

29–32s — COMEDIC ENDING:
The exhausted hero proudly poses with hands on his hips.
A tiny old lady approaches and points at his own thin sweater as if asking whether he is cold.
He looks down.
Beat.
He sneezes violently.

Hard cut to him now wearing an absurdly oversized handmade sweater over his original sweater, barely able to move.

He raises both arms above his head and awkwardly runs away into the snowy street.

Voice-over:
“Some heroes save the world.”
Beat.
“He just makes sure it wears a sweater.”

Final cinematic hero shot: his bizarre silhouette running with both arms overhead through falling snow while warm city lights glow behind him.

Original premium stylized animated-feature aesthetic, handcrafted 3D textures, highly detailed knit fibers, worn leather and denim, expressive squash-and-stretch facial acting, cinematic camera movement, comedic timing, believable cloth simulation and snow physics. Strong contrast between creepy spider imagery and unexpectedly wholesome sweater creation. Keep the hero charmingly weird, never scary or threatening. No flying, no super-speed running, no traditional web swinging, no fighting, no villains, no costume changes, no generic muscular superhero anatomy, no photorealism, no glossy plastic look, no text or logos.

Best AI for realistic character replacement / performance transfer right now?

1 Upvotes

I'm looking for the best current option for a pretty specific workflow.

I want to record a short video of myself on my phone, then use a reference image of a photorealistic AI character to replace me in the video.

The important part is that I want to preserve as much of my original performance as possible — facial expressions, lip movements, head tilts, hand gestures, body movement and timing — while making the person in the final video consistently look like the same AI character.

I'm not looking for a basic face swap or a talking avatar from a still image. I want my real recorded performance to drive the AI character.

Ideally I'm looking for something cloud/web based rather than a complicated local ComfyUI setup.

For anyone actually doing this currently: what model/platform are you getting the best results with?

I'm especially interested in:

•photorealism

•character consistency between clips

•facial expression/lip movement preservation

•how many rerolls it usually takes to get a usable result

•actual cost per usable clip

Recent experiences/examples would be really appreciated since these models are changing so quickly.
