How do I create a music video?
7ART Music Video transforms your song into a visual story by creating scenes based on your lyrics, music, and creative direction.
You can choose the visual style, define characters and locations, add your own storyline, review the generated storyboard, and create a complete music video.
What is Music Video?
Music Video is the 7ART tool that creates AI-generated videos from your songs.
It analyzes your track and lyrics to help create a visual storyboard with scenes that match the music.
You can use it to create:
- Music videos
- Visual stories for songs
- Cinematic scenes
- Animated or stylized performances
- Creative video projects
How do I create a music video?
To create a music video:
1. Choose your song and visual style
Start by selecting the song you want to use.
You can also describe the overall look of your video or choose from available visual styles, such as:
- Cinematic film
- Neon anime
- Dream pastel
- Retro VHS
- Editorial minimal
- Surprise me
You can leave the style selection to the AI director or choose the direction yourself.
You can also add a direction note describing the mood, atmosphere, or visual concept you want.
Example:
Soft pastel daydream, sunlight room, curtains moving, everything slightly out of focus.
2. Add cast and locations (optional)
You can define the people and places that appear in your music video.
For characters, you can:
- Choose from your Artist library
- Upload a photo
- Describe a character with a custom prompt
For locations, you can:
- Upload a location image
- Describe the location you want to create
Adding cast and locations helps create more consistent characters and visual settings throughout the video.
If you do not add cast or locations, the AI director creates the scenes automatically.
3. Add a script or storyline (optional)
You can provide your own storyline, scene ideas, or creative direction.
For example:
A person walks through a rainy city, memories appear throughout the song, and the final scene shows a moment of hope.
If you do not add a script, the AI director creates a storyboard based on your song and selected style.
4. Review your storyboard
Before generating the final video, 7ART creates a storyboard based on your song.
The storyboard includes:
- Scene descriptions
- Locations
- Visual direction
- Shot ideas
- Timing based on the music
Review the storyboard and make adjustments if needed.
Nothing is generated until you confirm the final video creation.
5. Generate your video
After reviewing the storyboard:
1. Confirm the planned video.
2. Review the required credit cost.
3. Start the generation process.
The final video is created based on your approved storyboard, selected style, and settings.
What affects the result?
The final music video can be influenced by:
- Your song and lyrics
- Selected visual style
- Direction notes
- Cast and location choices
- Script or storyline
- AI model and generation settings
For more consistent results:
- Choose a clear visual direction.
- Add reference characters or locations when needed.
- Describe the mood and story you want.
- Review the storyboard before generating.
What are the limits?
AI-generated music videos may not always match your idea perfectly.
Results can vary depending on:
- The complexity of the song
- Lyrics interpretation
- Selected style
- Available AI models
- Creative direction
The storyboard stage helps you review and guide the final result before generation.
How much does it cost?
Creating a music video uses credits.
The credit cost depends on factors such as:
- Video length
- Number of scenes
- Selected generation options
- AI models and settings
7ART shows the required credit amount before you confirm generation.
