Video Generation

Chat Video Pro provides powerful AI video generation capabilities, allowing you to create videos from text prompts, animate images, create smooth transitions, and use reference images for consistent c

How to Use Generative Video to Amplify Client Videos

Overview

Video Generation is where you create new video, animate images, build transitions, use reference images, extend existing clips, and open the classic video editor when you are already working from a generated or imported result.

Use this section when you want to:

  • Create a video from a text prompt.

  • Animate a still image.

  • Generate a transition between two frames.

  • Use reference images for character or style consistency.

  • Extend an existing clip.

  • Edit a generated or imported video from the classic editor.

For guided workflows like Cinematic Lab, Motion Director, AI Transitions, Rotoscoping, Erase Objects, Add Effects, Reshoot, Upscale, Motion Capture, Multi-Cam, and Relight Scene, use Studio.


Studio vs. Video Generation

Video Generation and Studio overlap because they both create or modify video, but they are designed for different entry points.

Start here
Use when

Video Generation

You want the classic prompt/model workflow, are choosing a video model directly, or are working from an existing chat result.

Studio

You want a guided creative workflow with the right asset loader, model, presets, and controls already selected.

Examples:

Goal
Best starting point

Generate a shot from scratch with a video model

Text-to-Video

Animate a still image with a direct prompt

Image-to-Video

Continue a clip by 7 seconds

Generative Extend

Open a generated video and make a quick classic edit

Video Canvas Editor

Build a directed image-to-video shot with movement presets

Studio Motion Director

Create a polished first/last frame transition

Studio AI Transitions

Remove an object, rotoscope, reshoot, relight, or upscale

Studio Post-Production workflows

The simple rule: use Video Generation when you want direct model control, and use Studio when you want the tool to guide the workflow.


Getting Started

  1. Enable Generate Media in the composer.

  2. Choose a video model from the model dropdown.

  3. Choose the mode based on your inputs: text only, one image, two images, or references.

  4. Configure aspect ratio, duration, resolution, and audio options.

  5. Write your prompt.

  6. Generate the video.

  7. Use Edit, Extend, or Studio if the result needs another pass.

If you are starting with footage from Premiere instead of a prompt, use Studio or import the clip first, then open the classic editor from the video thumbnail.


Quick Reference

Feature
Inputs
Best for

Text prompt

Creating a new shot from scratch.

1 image + prompt

Animating a photo, frame, design, or generated image.

Start image + end image

Moving between two visual states.

Reference images + prompt

Character, product, or style consistency.

Video + prompt + optional images, or audio

Adding effects to videos while keeping origional movment.

Existing video

Continuing a clip by 7 seconds.

Varies by workflow

Guided production and post-production workflows.


Workflow Tips

Choose The Mode From Your Inputs

If you have no image, use Text-to-Video. If you have one image, use Image-to-Video. If you have a start and end frame, use Transition Mode. If you have multiple identity or style references, use Reference Mode.

Use Studio For Polished Workflows

Studio is better when the task has a known creative shape: motion direction, cinematic image creation, AI transitions, rotoscoping, object removal, relighting, reshooting, VFX, multi-cam generation, motion capture, or upscaling.

Edit After You Generate

A strong generation often becomes better after one extra pass. Use the classic Video Canvas Editor for quick follow-up edits, or open Studio when the next step is one of the guided workflows.

Upscale Last

Do not upscale every draft. Generate and revise first, then use Studio Upscale when the clip is approved and needs a finishing pass.


Next Steps

  • Learn which model to choose in Supported Video Models.

  • Start from scratch with Text-to-Video.

  • Animate a frame with Image-to-Video.

  • Continue a clip with Generative Extend.

  • Use Studio for guided production and post-production workflows.
