Text to video
Describe the subject, setting, action and camera movement to explore a shot from text.
AI video generation
AI video generation: turn an idea into a moving shot.
Describe motion in words or animate an existing image. Eluai brings video models into one workflow: plan a shot, then choose a currently supported duration, aspect ratio, and resolution.
THE CREATIVE PROCESS

What can you create?
Image to video
Use an image you have rights to as a reference and describe what should stay and what should move.
Short-film shots
Split a longer story into reviewable shots, then edit the clips and sound separately.
Creative workflow
Describe one shot
Define the subject, setting and action, then add framing, lighting and camera movement.
Add reference material
Upload an image when continuity matters, and check that the selected model and operation accept it.
Choose a model and settings
Choose from the duration, frame, resolution and audio options currently available.
Review the estimate and result
Review estimated credits before submission, then check motion, subject, framing and audio.
Examples and prompts
These prompts are examples. The images are AI-generated illustrations, not customer case studies; results depend on the model, references and settings.
Example: product shot in natural light
A white ceramic mug on a light wooden table, morning light from a window on the left, a slow camera push in, soft background blur; keep the mug still.
Example: animate a reference frame
Use the reference frame as a starting point. The person gently turns toward the window as a curtain moves in a breeze; retain clothing colors, scene layout and camera direction.
Before delivery
Check people, product details, motion continuity and sound; a result may need several revisions.
Video and storyboard images are separate tasks; use the live pre-submission information for usage and availability.
Review credits before generation
Review the live estimate before each generation. Usage varies with the model, settings and count.
FAQ
Can I create an AI video from an image?
Choose a model that currently supports image-to-video and upload a reference; the interface shows accepted types and counts.
What belongs in a text-to-video prompt?
Start with a subject, environment, action, camera and lighting; describe one observable action and iterate.
How are videos billed?
Models and settings may be billed by duration or per request. Check the estimate and final task settlement.
