Seattle’s Yutao Han, aka Tao Prompts, has just released a great summary of the main ways to use AI tools to generate video clips.
They are:
- Text to Video (Google Veo 3.1 can even voice dialogue.)
- Image to Video (Probably the best way to ensure consistent characters.)
- Video to Video (More work, but worth it!)
- Lip Sync (The weakest link IMHO.)
- Ingredients to Video (This hints at the future.)
- Chat Edit (Sort of combines Video to Video and Text Prompting.)
Tao’s insights are very educational!
My take: really nice to have this summary of the various approaches. Note that you most definitely will use some combination of each; don’t just fixate on one tool.
