An AI video generator with image reference lets you translate a visual concept into video by describing it in text. Write down the composition, lighting, colors, camera angle, and motion, and the tool generates a video that matches your description. The tool does not accept image uploads; all reference input is text-based.
AI Video Generator With Image Reference
Describe a Landscape Reference
Input
A misty forest clearing at dawn, rays of light cut through fog between tall pine trees, wildflowers on the ground, slow camera push forward
Expected output
A misty forest scene with light rays and slow tracking shot
Describe a Portrait Reference
Input
A person in profile against a sunset sky, warm orange and pink gradients, soft wind moves their hair, shallow depth of field

Input
A modern glass building facade reflecting a blue sky, clouds move across the reflection, camera tilts up slowly from street level

An architectural scene with glass reflections and upward tilt
Generate video from detailed text descriptions that capture the visual qualities of a reference scene
Text-Based Reference
Write detailed scene descriptions instead of uploading image references. The tool generates video from your words.
Composition Control
Describe colors, lighting, composition, and camera angle precisely to guide the output.
Iterate on Text
Refine your description until the generated result matches the visual reference you have in mind.

Limitations to know before generating
The tool accepts text prompts only. You cannot upload an image file as a reference.
Results are interpretations of your text description, not exact reproductions of a specific photograph or artwork.
The level of match depends on the detail and clarity of your written description. Vague prompts produce less accurate results.
Colors, lighting, and camera angles are interpreted by the model. Experiment with different wording to refine the output.
Do not describe copyrighted images or trademarked visual content. Keep descriptions generic or original.
