AI music video generator

Describe the mood, story, and look of your song. Manus generates a music video clip with music and sound to match, in 16:9 or 9:16. Then Manus can help with what comes next, such as cover art or a page for the release.

Example request

Make an indie folk music video about leaving home, with gentle acoustic guitar music. Golden-hour wheat fields, a guitarist on a wooden fence, and slow, warm camera moves.

Generated from this request: a 9:16 video, 30 seconds long, with music.

How to make an AI music video

Four steps take you from an idea for your song to a finished clip.

  1. Step 1

    Describe your song

    Tell Manus the genre, the mood, and what the song is about. Need an original track as well? The AI music generator makes music from a description.

  2. Step 2

    Set the look

    Describe the setting, the people, and the visual style. You can also attach an image, such as your cover art, as a reference, or turn a photo into a video.

  3. Step 3

    Get your clip

    Manus generates the clip from your description, with music and sound if you want them. For other kinds of videos, see the AI video generator.

  4. Step 4

    Ask for changes

    Reply in the chat to change the setting or the style, and Manus makes a new version.

What to do after your music video is ready

Frequently asked questions

How do I make a music video with AI?

Describe your song in the box at the top of this page: the genre, the mood, what it is about, and the look you want. Manus generates a music video clip with music and sound to match. Sign up to send your request, then ask for changes in the chat.

Can I make a music video from an audio file?

Not directly. Manus generates the video from your written description, not from an uploaded audio file, so the shots are not timed to your track. Describe the genre, tempo, and mood of your song instead, and Manus creates music and visuals to match.

Can I make a music video from lyrics?

Yes, as a guide for the story. Paste your lyrics into your message along with the style you want, and Manus uses them to describe the scenes.

Can I make a vertical music video?

Yes. Ask for 9:16 for phone screens, or 16:9 for a widescreen video.

Can I make an animated music video?

Yes. Describe the style you want, such as hand-painted, anime-inspired, or 3D, and Manus generates the clip in that style.

Will my music video have sound?

It can. Describe the music and sound you want, such as an upbeat synth-pop track or rain and city noise. You can also ask for a video without audio.

Can I use my own images?

Yes. Attach an image, such as your cover art or a band photo, and Manus can use it as a visual reference for the clip.

Can I change a scene after the video is made?

Yes. Reply in the chat, for example, “Move the rooftop scene to a beach at sunset,” and Manus makes a new version.

What else can Manus do after my music video is ready?

Manus can help with the next step too. It can crop the clip to a 1:1 square for a feed post, make a longer instrumental track as an MP3 or WAV file, design cover art and a thumbnail as PNG images, or build a one-page website for the release. See crop video online, the AI music generator, the AI image generator, and the AI website builder.

Is the AI music video generator free?

Making a music video uses credits. See Manus pricing for details.
