AI Lyric Video Maker

An LRC file is preferable because timestamps are explicit. Music2Video preserves those line times. TXT or pasted lyrics have no timing, so the planning stage assigns lines to scenes and leaves them editable.

Proofread spelling, punctuation, repeated choruses, and language before generation. The system does not transcribe lyrics from audio in V1.

A lyric line needs enough screen time to be read once without rushing. Split long lines at natural phrases and avoid placing multiple competing text blocks in one scene.

Typography should remain stable while backgrounds change. Set safe margins for vertical and square formats because social platforms may cover the lower or right edge with controls.

Direct the keyframe model to reserve a calm region for text. Avoid bright detail behind the lyric area and use consistent contrast rules across every scene.

Abstract motion, performance fragments, and environmental details can support the words without illustrating each line literally. Literal illustration often feels repetitive.

Timed lyric styling can control entrances, emphasis, positioning, and language-aware fonts. Use motion to mark rhythm or the active phrase, not to make every character move independently.

For Chinese, Japanese, and Korean output, use a font that covers the required characters. Test the exact exported file because missing characters may not appear in the browser preview.

Preview every lyric against the final 720p frame and keep the original trimmed song as the soundtrack.

Check lyric timing with headphones and on a phone-sized preview. A technically correct timestamp can still feel early or late relative to the vocal delivery.

Before opening a model, write down the subject, setting, emotional turn, color relationship, camera distance, and the visual event that belongs to the chorus. The brief should describe choices that can be seen or heard. Words such as cinematic, viral, or beautiful are not production instructions until they become a lighting source, a framing rule, a material, a pace, or an action.

Keep the brief short enough to use repeatedly. A single performer, one recurring location material, and one lighting rule usually create more continuity than a new concept for every line of the song. If a later scene must break the rule, connect that exception to a musical change so the contrast feels intentional rather than accidental.

Plan a short proof containing an opening shot, one chorus shot, and a contrasting ending shot. Generate the keyframes first and compare them side by side at the same size. Look for drift in face, wardrobe, environment, color temperature, and the amount of usable space around the subject. A good image in isolation can still fail when it is placed beside the next one.

Only after the proof reads as one production should you expand the storyboard. This workflow makes retries local: revise the prompt, reference, or scene purpose that caused the problem, then regenerate that scene. It avoids spending video credits on a visual system that has not yet been tested.

Use section boundaries and phrases as candidate edit points, not automatic commands. Listen across every planned cut: a cut that lands in the middle of a sustained vocal, drum fill, or important lyric can make a technically attractive sequence feel careless. Give a shot enough duration for the viewer to understand its subject before introducing another visual idea.

Build the first assembly with hard cuts and the original trimmed song. Hard cuts make timing problems visible. Add transitions only when they communicate a change in time, place, memory, or energy; they should not be used to disguise two scenes that do not belong together.

Use the image model to establish a controllable keyframe and the video model to animate a deliberate action. A video prompt should identify who or what moves, how the camera moves, the pace of the motion, and the final composition. Asking for several contradictory camera moves or emotional actions in one short shot gives the model no stable priority.

When lip sync matters, choose a compatible Seedance model and keep each vocal scene within the 15-second limit. Scenes without a visible singer do not need lip sync and can be used for cutaways, environments, or objects. The final composition restores the original trimmed song, so generated clip audio is not the master soundtrack.

Confirm that you have permission to use the submitted song, lyrics, performer likeness, and every reference image. Music2Video does not grant rights in third-party material. Keep the project source organized so you can identify which references informed a final scene, especially when a performance video includes a recognizable person.

Watch the finished MP4 from first frame to last on the intended screen shape. Check that lyrics remain readable, no important subject is cropped, cuts match the song, and the audio lasts exactly as expected. This final pass is part of production quality, not an optional technical afterthought.

Separate stable visual facts from the event inside a shot. Stable facts include the character, wardrobe, environment, time of day, light direction, palette, and texture. The event is what changes during the few seconds of that scene: a turn toward camera, a hand reaching for an object, a slow tracking move, or a reveal. This separation makes it easier to see whether a failed result needs a new reference, a revised keyframe, or a simpler motion instruction.

Name one priority for each prompt. If the frame must preserve a singer's face, do not compete with that requirement by asking for extreme profile angles, a rapid zoom, rain, a crowd, and a costume change at once. When a shot has too many goals, split it into two scenes with a clear edit point between them.

Choose the intended format before you generate the sequence. A vertical social cut, square post, and widescreen release use different safe areas and shot scales. Keep faces, lyric lines, and key props away from interface overlays and extreme edges. For a lyric video, reserve calm negative space in the keyframe rather than attempting to place text over busy motion after the fact.

Review a representative scene at the actual viewing size. Fine texture, thin type, and low-contrast words that look acceptable on a large monitor can disappear on a phone. Make one deliberate typography rule for font weight, placement, contrast, and line length, then apply it across the project so the lyrics behave like part of the visual system.

Planning costs one credit per project. Image generation costs depend on the selected image model, and video generation is charged by output second at the selected model rate. Count the enabled scenes and planned durations before starting a batch, then keep a small margin for retries. A shorter storyboard with purposeful shots is usually easier to review and control than one filled with interchangeable coverage.

Use the first approved scene as evidence before you scale production. If the image, timing, or motion does not meet the brief, pause and revise the source decision rather than treating repeated retries as a strategy. Failed or cancelled generation tasks return their credits, but a clear plan is still the best way to avoid wasting time on work that cannot belong in the final cut.

After every approval, record what changed and why: a reference image was replaced, a lyric line moved, a duration shortened, or a camera instruction simplified. This makes the storyboard useful as an editorial record rather than a disposable prompt list. It also helps collaborators understand the visual rules when they review only a single scene or return to the project after a pause.

Review the project in two passes. First judge each scene on its own for identity, composition, readable text, and technical fit. Then judge the whole sequence without stopping to see whether recurring details, pacing, and the emotional arc survive from opening to final frame. A scene can pass the first review but still be wrong for the sequence.
