Creating a music video is exciting and easier than you might think. With free artificial intelligence (AI) tools, you can write a song, design visuals, and build a professional-looking video in a few steps.
This guide walks you through the process in a simple way, so you can make a fun music video and share it online.
Step 1: Write a Song Using AI
Start by creating a song.
You don’t need to be a musician because AI can help!
Use a tool called ChatGPT to write lyrics. Go to the ChatGPT website and type something like, “Write a fun song about chasing dreams.”
Be specific about the mood, like happy or energetic, and ChatGPT will give you lyrics right away. You can ask for lyrics in any language or for a specific group, like kids or teens.
Next, go to a website called Suno AI. Copy your lyrics from ChatGPT and paste them into Suno AI. Choose a music style, such as pop or hip-hop, and click “Create.” In a few seconds, Suno AI turns your lyrics into a real song with music.
You can listen to a few versions and pick your favorite to download.
Suno AI gives new users free credits to try it out.
Step 2: Plan Scenes for Your Video
A music video needs scenes that match the song’s words. Think of scenes like parts of a story that show what’s happening in the song.
Use ChatGPT to plan these scenes.
For example, type, “Make a list of scenes for a music video where a kid sings in a park and dances with friends.” ChatGPT will create a list with details, like what the characters wear or how the camera moves, and it will add timestamps to help you later.
If you want to add a special scene, like someone singing in a room, just tell ChatGPT. It will add a description for that scene, making it easy to follow.
Step 3: Make Pictures for Your Scenes
Your video needs pictures that look like they belong together. Choose one main character, like a kid or a teen, for all your scenes. Find a free picture of a person on a website like Pexels, or use your own photo.
Upload the picture to ChatGPT and say, “Turn this photo into a cartoon character for a music video.” ChatGPT will create a cartoon version that looks similar.
Give your character a name, like “Alex Star,” and tell ChatGPT to use this character in every scene. For each scene, write a prompt like, “Make a cartoon picture of Alex Star singing in a park.”
ChatGPT will create pictures that keep your character looking the same, so your video looks professional.
Step 4: Turn Pictures into Video Clips
Now, turn your pictures into short videos. Use a free tool called Kaiber AI.
Go to Kaiber AI, upload a picture, and write a short description, like “Alex Star singing in a park.” Choose how long the clip should be, like 10 seconds, and click “Generate.” To make your character look like they’re singing, add lip-sync, which matches their mouth to the song.
To do this, use a free app called CapCut. Open CapCut, import your song, and cut out a 10-second part that matches your scene. Save this as an MP3 file. Go back to Kaiber AI, upload the 10-second audio, and click “Generate” to add lip-sync.
Repeat this for each scene. If you want longer clips, try Hedra AI, which lets you make videos up to 20 seconds using the same steps.
Step 5: Put Your Video Together
Combine your video clips using CapCut on your computer. Open CapCut and import your song and video clips. Drag the song to the timeline, then add each video clip where it fits. To line them up perfectly, select a clip and the song, then click “Sync Video and Audio.” CapCut will match them for you.
Make your video fun by adding effects, like bright colors or sparkles, from the “Effects” tab. Add smooth changes between clips using the “Transitions” tab. To show your song’s name, go to the “Text” tab, type the title, and choose a cool style. When you’re done, click “Export” to save your video.
Conclusion
Using free tools like ChatGPT, Kling AI, Suno AI, Kaiber AI, Hedra AI, and CapCut, you can create an awesome music video without spending money. Share your video on YouTube or other websites to show your creativity. Making music videos with AI is fun and easy, so give it a try and see what you can create!
