An Overview of Text to Video AI Technology

Regardless of whether it’s a personal video or a marketing video, editing videos can be quite tedious and expensive – in the case of hiring a video editor. I do not know about you but I do not find that appealing at all. You may be wondering what this is leading up to. This article will be looking into artificial intelligence in video editing.

How It All Works

In this modern day, AI is in pretty much every industry and does a lot for us. For all you know it could be whipping up this article – just kidding. Most AI was created for the purpose of performing trivial tasks that humans of course find boring and annoyingly recursive.

With respect to video editing, AI uses some pretty complex algorithms to make videos both more appealing and understandable to people with diverse backgrounds. One of the best ways it does this is by rearranging visual content so it offers more content and context to people who perhaps do not speak the language in the video or folks who may be hearing impaired – the efficacy of this is absolutely unparalleled.

Why should you use AI and not just edit the videos yourself?

It is Faster and More Efficient

AI makes video editing way faster and efficient. I mean you will not see AI tiring out or producing subpar work so it can go get a drink with friends.

AI Does a Lot of the Work

AI is simple to use and does most of the work for you – which, to some extent – is what we are all looking for.

AI Helps in Determining Optimal Angles

AI can assist in figuring out the most favorable angles, shots and edits for your video, which is a guaranteed way to optimal results with respect to good video editing.

Color Correction

AI enables automated color correction and scene identification which translates to better visual experience for the viewers.

Text to Video AI

This kind of AI converts text to video on your behest and is a game changer in terms of marketing. Would you rather read about a product or watch a video about it? Yeah, me too.

Text to Video

As is suggested by the name, text to video is literally the conversion of text into a video. Imagine having a 1000-word article and you are tasked with editing it into a video. It does not sound like a Sunday afternoon in the park. Before you start hyperventilating and panicking, think about how text to AI video can help you out and perhaps do all the work for you.

AI in Text to Video Conversion

Artificial intelligence allows you to create high quality text to video content without doing all the heavy lifting. Suppose you had hired a video editor to perform this rather tenuous task, not to sound cavalier but AI could replace said worker and as a bonus, you do not have to pay as much for AI.

Why Convert Text to Video?

To Repurpose Your Content 

You may have uploaded today’s blog which – in your opinion – was some of your best work and expect to get numerous readers and insane feedback but days go by and the results are frankly underwhelming and disappointing.

It may be because some parts of your audience are not avid readers and they would rather listen to content or watch it on a video. Worry not because with text to video conversion, you have all the non-readers covered and all your followers will be satisfied. As a matter of fact, AI tools can convert your favorite article, this one, into video with minimal fuss.

Increase Reach 

Statistics say videos get 12% more engagement than plain static text so it does not take a genius to figure out what is going to be more effective and efficient.

Personalized AI avatars

AI tools give personalized experiences by using an AI avatar in the videos. They are basically online life-like humanoids to present your material or for better understanding to do the voice for the videos from text. They give you the freedom to customize the output in terms of gender as well as the language you want your video to be in.

3D reenactment allows said avatars to come to life in every sense of the word in that they look like people and speak like people too. AI has pushed the limits so much so that some AI can now write and read poetry which is both impressive and a tad scary depending on how you look at it.

As impressive as AI sounds, it still has not quite grasped some deep brain functions like emotions, creativity and to some extent analytical abilities – it would be downright impressive and scary if AI ever got that good.

Creating Your Very Own Personalized AI Avatar

To create a custom human avatar – one that looks just like you, you are required to upload a video speaking in front of a green screen onto a platform that offers the service. The AI then analyzes the video with in depth focus on facial impressions, intonation and inflection of the voice and records important language homonyms to create a synthetic version of you speaking.

AI human avatars can be programmed to speak a typed script, translated and spoken in over 50 languages. The resemblance to real people is uncanny to the extent that some people are unable to tell the difference.

How to Convert Text to Video

There are numerous tools in the market for this exact purpose. It is all a matter of choice. That I cannot help you with. What I can do is give you a general idea of how to turn that excellent article into a video for your audience.

This first step absolutely needs no explanation, just choose a platform that best fits your needs.

Next up is choosing an already made human avatar, thank the heavens for 3D reenactment and choose the language as well. After that, type in your script or the text you want converted. If you already have the script, you can simply paste the thing.

Once you’ve done this, just kick back and enjoy a mug of warm chocolate while AI generates your video in a few minutes.
