The four steps

How to create AI videos, step by step.

From a written idea to an exported clip, in the order you do it in Frameo.

  1. Describe the shot

    Name the subject, the action, the camera move and the light in one or two lines. Frameo does the casting and the blocking.

  2. Pick the model, ratio and length

    Choose a model, then 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1, and how long the clip runs. The exact cost of a render is shown before you start it.

  3. Generate takes and keep the best

    Run a few takes and compare them. Keep the one that reads right, and change a word in the prompt to try again.

  4. Add sound, trim and export

    Lay in a voiceover or music, cut the clip to length and export the finished video.

Questions from first-time AI video makers.

No. Frameo is an AI video production platform: it turns a written prompt into a clip you can trim, add sound to and export on one canvas. You describe the shot and direct the result.

Each take is a short clip. Longer videos are built by joining takes on the canvas, and Longform Video handles pieces over five minutes.

Yes. Add it as a reference, then describe what should happen next.

Yes. Lay a voiceover or a track under your clip before you export, or turn a script into a narrated video.
