AI video generation

Generate a short video from an image or a text prompt, for product showcases, social media content, and project demos.

To show off a 3D model, place it in a scene with 3D scenes, render an image of it, and send the image to Video. For complex cinematic rendering, export your model to Blender, Arnold, or another professional renderer instead.

Create a video

To create a video, follow these steps:

  1. From the Meshy home page, in the left sidebar, point to Create, and then click Video. If you clicked Send to Video in a scene, Video opens with that image already added.

  2. In Create Video, click Image to Video or Text to Video.

  3. For Image to Video, add an image in Image. Video generation needs a paid plan.

  4. In Prompt, describe the scene and how it moves.

  5. Select a Model, and then set the options the model offers. Image to Video shows Duration, Quality, and Audio Generation. Text to Video shows Duration, Aspect Ratio, and Audio Generation.

  6. Click Generate. The panel shows the time and credit cost before you generate.

The video appears in the list of your videos. Select it to play it.
