Experiencing AI: ai.Invideo.io

Everyone likes to binge-watch videos. They are far less tedious than reading text or figuring out the meaning of a graphic. And yet, you would not find me posting many videos for the obvious reason that they take effort and time to create. And then I wondered what if I just told a video editor the kind of video I wanted and the editor made it? But of course, that would mean additional costs.

InVideo, an AI tool saves you. It not only works as an assistant who would generate a whole video for you but also does it quickly within minutes. Whatever relevant images and stock videos you need, it will automatically pick and create.

How to start?

When joining, InVideo will ask you a few questions to understand why you are coming to the platform and note your references.

First, Choose the platform you want to create the video for. You can use it for any platform but it allows you to select one as your primary reason to use inVideo.

How to work with it?

Ai.invideo.io workspace is rather simple. You get a space to write instructions and select the workflow, in other words, the type of video you want to create. Options available are YouTube shorts, Explainer videos, Events videos, or Scripts to Video creation.

Each of these options would give you more options to edit the settings of your video. For instance, if you choose YouTube Shorts, you can specify the gender you want to use, the accent you prefer, if you want to add subtitles or use iStock images.

Once you click the create button, you can also refine the audience, look and feel, and specify the platform for publication.  Having done that, the ball starts rolling. The AI will start churning the script. Yes, right, you do not even have to give the script but just the purpose of the video and it will do the rest. Within a minute, your video would be ready (for shorts). Longer videos might take more time but trust that you would not have to wait too long.

Of course, the first go is rarely the perfect go whether the creator is a human or an AI imitating humans. So, the tool gives you an option to edit the script, images, element style, and the text used in titles.

If it is not just the script or image you want to change, you can always give another prompt and ask the AI to recreate the video with changes you desire. Now, how to explain what changes you need? If you are a writer, I am sure it would not be a big challenge but if you are not, this resource might be useful for you. Although it provides script writing guidance considering ChatGPT but the ideas are most likely applicable to any AI tool. After all, they are all brothers that speak the same language.  

How to create an explainer video

Just like you did with shorts, start writing the script to give the AI guidance on what kind of video you want to create and select the workflow as ‘Explainer Video’. With the explainer video, you will find some more options in the settings like time limit, creative guidance, background music, gender, voice, and use of subtitles. Once you put it to work, the AI will analyze, think, and prepare a video with a catchy title. Then you can choose the audience, look and feel, and platform just like in the previous option.

Please note that the tool will make use of iStock pics and will have watermarks but with an upgrade, you can remove them while exporting. InVideo provides 80 licenses in 7 days in the upgraded version. So, if you have used them up, you might have to wait a while to use more from the stock. If you want to stick to the free version, you can always replace stock images and videos with your video shorts. But then, what is the use of outsourcing your work to AI? Don’t you want to save the effort?

How would a video look with your images? Will it appear professional? Why don't you try!
