Video Generation

Generate video from text or an image, assemble scenes, and apply transitions and effects.

Overview

The Video Generation group brings AI video creation and editing into a workflow — generate video from text or an image, assemble multi-shot scenes, and apply transitions or effects. Nodes are organized into two sub-categories: Generate and Edit.

Nodes in This Group

Generate

NodeDescription
Text to VideoGenerates a video clip from a text prompt.
Image to VideoAnimates an upstream image into a video clip.
FusionCombines multiple upstream inputs into a single generated video.
Scene BuilderAssembles multiple clips or shots into a structured scene sequence.
Short Film CreatorGenerates a complete short film from a script or premise, chaining multiple scenes together.

Edit

NodeDescription
Video TransitionApplies a transition effect between two upstream clips.
Video EffectsApplies a visual effect to an upstream clip.
ExtendExtends the length of an upstream clip.
RestyleApplies a new visual style to an upstream clip.

Usage Tips

1. Text to Video / Image to Video
2. Scene Builder
3. Video Transition / Effects

Generate individual clips first, assemble them with Scene Builder, then apply transitions and effects as a final polish pass. For a fully automated pipeline from script to finished short, use Short Film Creator instead of chaining the individual nodes by hand.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Fusion and Scene Builder?
Fusion blends multiple inputs (e.g. two clips or an image and a prompt) into one generated result. Scene Builder arranges already-generated clips into an ordered sequence — it does not generate new content itself.
Can Short Film Creator be used as a single node, or does it require the other nodes first?
It can run on its own — it internally handles clip generation, scene assembly, and transitions from a script or premise. Use the individual nodes instead when you need manual control over a specific step.
