How the AI Video Maker Works
What you get
A short video ad, social post, promo, invitation or announcement — usually about 30 seconds, and up to a minute when the description calls for it, sized for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook or LinkedIn.
- Length
- Usually 30 seconds, up to 60
- Formats
- Wide, square, vertical or portrait
- Media
- Real photos and footage — found for you, or your own, never generated
- Music
- A track matched to the mood
- Delivered as
- An editable project, then an MP4
Movidmo's AI video maker does the design work, composing everything for the shape you choose:
- Uses real photographs and footage, never generated
- Writes the captions and sets them in type, from nearly 200 fonts
- Picks a soundtrack from the curated library, matched by mood and genre
- Builds a color palette around the mood you described
- Adds animation where it will stop the scroll, with 100 to choose from
- Sets the timing for all scenes throughout the video
Nothing is invented: no AI-generated imagery, no fake presenter, no digitized voiceover.
The fonts, animations and music come from the same design library the Movidmo template collection is built from, and the same creative controls sit behind the Movidmo editors — so if you have used one of them you already know your way around.
A generator with a real editor behind it is the whole approach. A generator on its own leaves you rewriting a description and hoping the next attempt lands closer — every run is a fresh roll, and a model asked to move one line repaints the frame to do it. Here the AI does the design work and then hands you the controls, so anything you would have asked for in a second attempt is something you can simply do.
- Free to use
- No watermark
- Fully editable
You're only asked to sign in the first time you generate. Signing up is free, and everything you make is stored and waiting on your AI generations page when you come back.
Make a free video →Describe it
Type a plain-language description — the business or event, the mood, and any captions you want on screen. Detail helps:
Say how it should feel. Warm and elegant gets different footage, different type, different color and a different soundtrack than energetic and bold.
Spell out anything that has to be exact — a web address, a number to call, a price, a date. It reaches the screen as you typed it.
These are the six descriptions that produced the examples at the top of this page — same names, same order. Click one to load it into the generator.
Pick the shape
Choose the shape that suits where the video is going. The design is composed for it — the same description produces genuinely different layouts in different shapes, so this is not a crop applied at the end.
- Wide1920×1080
- The one to choose if it will be watched rather than scrolled past — a YouTube video, something embedded on your own site, an email, or a screen running in the shop. It's also the only shape that fills a desktop browser without bars down the sides.
- Square1080×1080
- The safe one when you don't yet know where it will end up. A square post holds its shape in an Instagram or Facebook feed, works as an ad, and does not look wrong anywhere else. Pick it when the same video has to serve several places.
- Vertical1080×1920
- For Reels, TikTok, Shorts and Stories, where the video fills the whole phone screen. It tends to hold attention longer than the others. One thing to know: the app lays its own buttons and captions over the top and bottom of the screen, so anything that has to be read is safer nearer the middle.
- Portrait1080×1350
- The tallest a feed post is allowed to be before Instagram and Facebook crop it, so it takes noticeably more of the screen than square while still being a post rather than a Reel. Worth choosing over square whenever the video is going in a feed and nowhere else.
Choose the media yourself optional
The Media box under the description carries two buttons, side by side. Stock Media searches the same libraries the maker draws on, so you can pick the shots yourself instead of leaving the choice to it. Your Media opens the files you've already uploaded, and takes new ones. Either one opens a small panel below the button, and you can move between them freely and take some of each.
Media is added one at a time — each selection joins the list above as a small thumbnail — and the panel stays open, ready for the next one.
You can skip this entirely. Leave the media box empty and stock photography and footage is found to match what you described — that's the normal way to work, and it's how the examples at the top of this page were made.
Worth doing whenever you have a particular shot in mind: your shop, your people, your product, the event itself, or a stock shot you want behind a scene. Nothing here is generated — stock or your own, every photograph and clip was taken of something real.
TipWhat you pick is what the design draws from, and it knows which pieces are yours — so yours go in wherever a scene suits them. A video is built from many pieces, so a photo or two gets topped up with stock to fill it out. The more you add, the less stock it needs.
Generate, then edit
Press Make My Video and the design is created for you. It usually takes two to five minutes, and a long, detailed brief can take up to eight. The page shows what it is building while it works.
When the process completes, the editor opens with your video loaded. You land in the place where everything is editable. Make small positioning and sizing tweaks, or take the design wherever you want: rewrite any caption and style it with a wide range of fonts, colors, effects and animations; add your logo, swap the soundtrack, or retime the whole thing. Any photo or clip can be replaced — upload your own, or pull from searchable libraries of millions of stock images and video clips built into the editor. The help center covers all of it.
TipIn the editor, use › Swap Colors to push your own brand colors through the whole design at once.
If a caption sits slightly wrong or one photo isn't the one you would have chosen, changing it here takes seconds. Generating again takes another few minutes and gives you a different design rather than a corrected one. Small things are worth fixing; they are rarely worth a second run.
When the video is how you want it, clicking the publish button renders a finished MP4 with no watermark — ready to download, or share straight to social. It's kept on your videos page as well, so you can come back for the file later.
Everything you make is stored
Nothing you generate needs saving to survive. Every video lands on your AI generations page the moment it is built, newest first, still carrying the description behind it. Open in editor reopens any of them in the video editor just as it was designed, and Use this description drops the brief, the shape and the clips you chose straight back into the box above.
Save is a different thing again. Press it in the editor and the video joins Your projects as well, next to everything else you have built — without leaving the generations list.

Can I link to the AI Video Maker with my description already filled in?
?q= and your description to this page’s address, with + between the words, and add &format= with wide, square, vertical or portrait to choose the shape: https://www.movidmo.com/ai-video-generator/?q=15-second+promo+for+a+bakery+fall+sale&format=vertical. The link fills in the form and nothing more — the video is only made when you press Make My Video, so the wording can still be changed first. Keep the description under 300 characters. It’s a quick way to bookmark a brief, send one to a colleague, or let an AI assistant hand you a request that’s ready to go. The help center has the details.Wanted a still image instead?
The AI Image Maker takes the same kind of description and designs a single image from real photography, with your words set in type over it — sized for the same places, and editable afterwards in the same way.
