Video generation

Text to video

Describe the shot you need and generate a finished video clip, with no camera, crew, or stock footage required.

  • Create product B-roll, background loops, and concept shots from a prompt.
  • Generate vertical, square, and widescreen video for different channels.
  • Save generated clips directly to the library where you host and manage your videos.

Image to video

Bring still images to life by adding movement and turning existing visual assets into short AI-generated video clips.

Cinema8’s AI image-to-video generator transforms an existing image into video, with an optional image-to-video prompt to guide the camera and movement. Choose an image from your Cinema8 library or upload a new one, then adjust the settings to create a video that fits your content.

  • Turn product photography, campaign visuals, and other existing assets into video.
  • Guide camera movement with prompts for effects such as push-ins, pans, and subtle motion.
  • Create new video content while keeping the original image and visual identity at the centre.

Video enhancement

Video upscaling

Improve the quality of old or low-resolution footage with AI, so your existing videos are ready to use again.

Cinema8’s AI video upscaler enhances video resolution and detail at 2x, 3x, or 4x the original scale while preserving the audio. Choose a video from your library, select the level of upscaling you need, and save the enhanced version back to Cinema8.

  • Enhance archive footage, screen recordings, and older webinar videos.
  • Improve low-resolution footage for reuse across newer video projects.
  • Preserve the original audio without having to re-sync it afterwards.

How AI video generation works in Cinema8

Turn an idea or existing asset into a finished video in three simple steps.

1

Choose how you want to create

Start with a text prompt, upload an image, select an existing video to upscale, or add a portrait and voice track to create an AI avatar.

2

Generate and refine your video

Choose the settings for your project and let AI Studio generate or improve your content. Review the result and make adjustments until you’re happy with your video.

3

Save and use your video

Save your finished video directly to your Cinema8 library, ready to host, manage, add interactivity, share, and track from the same platform.

Why generate AI video inside a video hosting platform?

Keep AI video creation connected to the tools you use to manage, publish, and measure your video content.

Create and manage video in one platform

Videos generated in AI Studio can be saved directly to your Cinema8 library, removing the need to download and re-upload files between separate platforms.

AI included with every plan

Every Cinema8 plan includes AI tokens, with additional token packs available on paid plans when you need more.

Access your wider video toolkit

Once saved to your Cinema8 library, you can add interactive elements, customise the player, manage your content, and track viewer engagement with video analytics.

More tools for your video content

AI Studio includes additional tools for working with video, audio, and images, giving you more ways to use AI to edit and enhance your content within Cinema8.

How AI tokens work

Cinema8’s AI tools use tokens based on the task you perform. For example, a 4-second 1080p video uses around 320 tokens, video upscaling uses around 12 tokens per second, and an AI avatar uses 100 tokens. Free accounts receive a one-time token allowance to try the tools, while paid plans refresh their token allowance monthly and can purchase additional token packs when needed.
