Script to Video AI
Turn Text into Video
You have the blueprint (the script). Now build the house (the video). Our script to video ai pipeline converts your words into a broadcast-ready MP4 in minutes, automating the entire production chain from asset selection to final render.

The Direct-to-Video Compiler
The traditional video production workflow is linear, slow, and expensive. It works like a game of "Telephone": Writer -> Director -> Producer -> Editor -> Sound Mixer. At each step, time is lost, communication breaks down, and costs balloon. This friction makes video production impossible to scale. You can write 10 articles in a day, but you can only edit 1 video in a day.
FlowVideo AI's Script to Video AI collapses this entire chain into a single click using a "Text-to-Video" foundation. It treats the script as executable code. When you type "A cyberpunk city in rain," the AI executes that command by searching its database or generating that exact visual. It is a "Direct-to-Video" compiler.
This tool is designed for scale. Publishers, Marketers, Educators, and Faceless Channel creators cannot afford to spend 3 days producing a 3-minute video. With our engine, they can paste a 1,000-word article and get a fully visualized, voiced, and captioned video back in 10 minutes. It turns text—a static asset—into video—a liquid asset that flows across TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram.
Why Convert Script to Video with AI?
Semantic Visualization (Contextual Matching)
The Technology: The Visualization Engine
Natural Language Understanding (NLU) Segmentation
The AI first "Segments" your script into a storyboard. Scene Detection: It groups sentences into scenes based on topic shifts. (e.g., Sentences 1-3 are "Intro," Sentences 4-8 are "Problem"). Keyword Extraction: It identifies the nouns (Object) and verbs (Action) that need visualization (e.g., "Dog," "Running"). Sentiment Analysis: It determines if the scene is "Happy" (It selects bright, high-key stock footage) or "Sad/Serious" (It selects slow-motion, black and white, or moody footage).
Asset Retrieval & Generative Fill
It fills the timeline from two sources to ensure 100% coverage. Source A (Stock): It searches our 10M+ licensed library (Storyblocks/Shutterstock integration). It prioritizes 4K resolution and high bitrates. Source B (Generative): If the script is "A cat playing poker in space," no stock footage exists. The AI automatically triggers the Stable Video Diffusion module to *generate* this clip from scratch. This "Hybrid Approach" ensures you never have a blank screen.
The "Auto-Dub" Module (TTS)
It generates the voice that drives the edit. Text-to-Speech (TTS): We use ElevenLabs-grade models that breathe, pause, and intonate like humans. Emotion Control: You can tag parts of the script: [Whisper] "It's a secret." or [Shout] "Buy now!" The AI voice actor performs these emotional cues, adding a layer of acting to the robotic process.
Step-by-Step Guide: From Document to Movie
Input the Text
Garbage in, garbage out. Start with good text. Import: Paste text, upload a Word Doc, or paste a URL to a blog post (the AI will scrape it). Clean Up: The AI scans for "non-spoken" text (like "Figure 1", "Image descriptions") and suggests removing them. Chunking: It breaks the text into "Scenes" automatically. You can verify the chunks before proceeding.
Configure the "Director"
Tell the AI the style. Media Source: "Stock Only" (Fastest), "AI Gen Only" (Creative), or "Mixed" (Best). Visual Style: "Cinematic," "Cartoon / Anime," "Line Art Sketch," "Minimalist Corp." Voice: "British Male Deep," "American Female Cheerful," "Child," etc.
Magic Generation (The Render)
Click "Visualize." Process: You see the timeline filling up in real-time. It downloads clips, aligns audio, and places text. Review: Watch the draft. It is usually 80% perfect. Override: The AI chose a clip of a "Red Car." You wanted a "Blue Car." Click the clip -> Click "Swap" -> Search "Blue Car" -> Click "Replace." Done.
Text and Graphics Overlay
Add the reading layer. Captions: Auto-generated. Choose a preset like "Hormozi" (Big Yellow/Green text that pops). Refinement: Edit any typos in the captions (text-based editing). Callouts: Add arrows, circles, or highlight boxes to specific parts of the video to draw attention.
Render and Download
Resolution: 1080p is standard. 4K is available for Pro users (upscaled). Subtitles: Download the .SRT file separately if you want to upload closed captions to YouTube for SEO.
