Music Video Generator
Upload a song, add a picture or a line of direction, approve a storyboard, and get a full-length music video cut to the beat, with your singer lip-synced if you like. What each step does, what it costs, and where the buttons are.
#What it does
The Music Video Generator turns a finished song into a music video without a crew. It listens to the track first (tempo, bars, sections, the drops), writes a treatment for the whole song, storyboards every scene as a still, and only once you approve the storyboard does it shoot motion for each scene and cut the film to the actual beats of your audio. Your face can be in every scene, singing your own vocal if you turn on lip sync, a reference image can set the world, and the look you name in one line holds from the first shot to the last. Once the film exists, you can change it by talking to it.
It is a new product in the SoundBoost suite, next to mastering and the stem splitter, and it has its own credits. Nothing about your mastering plan changes when you use it, and nothing here touches your audio.
#The whole flow in four steps
- Your songUpload the audio (MP3, WAV, FLAC and more, up to 1 GB), or send a finished master straight from Projects. Add a reference image, photos of the main character, and a direction if you have one; Lip sync is on unless you untick it. One picture is a valid brief; so is nothing at all. Uploading, direction, references, lip sync.
- StoryboardEvery scene arrives as a still, in song order, with its story written under it. Read the treatment, retake or edit any frame, rewrite a scene, keep the takes you like. The storyboard and scene tools.
- Make the filmPick a quality, read the estimate, approve. Scenes are shot, cut to the beat and rendered into one film. About twenty minutes for a full song. Making the film.
#Storyboard first, film after you approve
The generator never spends your credits on motion for scenes you have not seen. The storyboard comes first, and it is the cheap part; the first preview is free if you are not on a plan. The film, which is the expensive part, is generated only after you press Make the film and approve an estimate. If a scene is wrong, fix it before filming, not after.
#What comes out
- A full-length film, up to 1080p, streamed in the browser with a quality picker and downloadable as an MP4; upscaled to 4K if you want it, with a creator pack of every still, clip and stem behind it.
- Cut to your track. The edit follows the real kicks, snares and bars of the audio file, so drops land on drops. In the loudest passages the cuts lock to the riff itself.
- A story, not a slideshow. The treatment covers the whole song, so the last scene knows what the first one set up. The showcase film Nan Nan reaches the exact state of its reference drawing on the final chorus.
- Consistency. Named main characters keep their face, characters the story invents keep one look each, and a named look (Wes Anderson symmetry, black and white, handheld) holds for every scene.
- Lip sync. With Lip sync on, the singer performs on camera where the song is sung, mouth on your own vocal.
- A commercial licence. Release it as the official video for your song on YouTube, streaming platforms and social media.
#Where to start
#Under the hood
Most AI music video tools stretch a visualizer or a template over the track. This one runs a real production pipeline: music analysis, a director model that writes bar-addressed shots, an image model conditioned on your real photos, motion models per scene, a beat-locked edit cut to the genre of the song, a light overlay and a film grade. How it works walks through each stage, and the AI music video generator page shows finished films next to what went into them.
#Where it lives
In the web app, at mastering.soundboost.ai/music-video-generator, as the Music Videos tab of the upload page, and under Music Video Generator in the sidebar, next to Discover.
Do I need a prompt?
No. A reference image alone, or nothing but the song, both work. The engine detects the genre and writes the story. A short direction usually gets you closer to the film you had in mind, and Direction has the ones that worked.
How long does it take?
The first scenes of a storyboard preview usually appear within a couple of minutes, and the rest follow as they are ready. A full-length film is usually about twenty minutes after you approve it. The page shows a remaining-time range and you can leave; a mail tells you when the film is ready, and it waits in Projects.
What does it cost?
Credits from a plan or a pack, and the estimate is shown before anything is charged. Plans and credits has the full table.
Can I try it without a plan?
Yes. Without a plan you get a free storyboard preview of the opening of your song, and Enrich my idea a few times a day. Retakes, edits, the chat and the film itself need a plan. Plans and credits.
Will the lyrics appear on screen?
Not unless you ask. Tick "Use song's lyrics as inspiration" and the transcribed lyrics feed the treatment and the scenes; the result is a directed film, not a lyric video. If you do want words on screen (lyric subtitles, a title, credits), ask for them in the chat once the film exists.
Can the singer actually sing?
Yes. With Lip sync on (it is ticked by default when you upload the song), the mouth follows the vocal of your track in scenes where the singer performs on camera. Lip sync.
