Music video and visualizer

​

What the app does with it

• The track is the video: a single part, the length of the track (10 seconds to 4 minutes). The soundtrack is your file, at full volume, from start to finish.
• Nobody speaks: no narrator, no lines. The characters, if there are any, live the song on screen.
• One shot every 2 to 3 seconds, synced to the lyrics. An abstract line becomes a concrete image (a gesture, a place, a metaphor), never a text.
• No text drawn in the images: no lyrics, no title, no readable sign.
• The lyrics are transcribed automatically, for free. Paste them for a more accurate sync.
• For an instrumental, your description guides the images.

What you provide

​

The form that works

[Place or world] + [what happens, or who lives it] + [light or mood]

A night drive through a neon city, in the rain. A lone woman driving, red and blue reflections on the windshield, shots getting faster and faster at the chorus.

I drive alone into the night
The neon lights shine over the city

​

Before / after

A cool video for my song.

A black and white video in a deserted hotel: a lone singer walks through the hallways, opens doors onto memories. The verses are calm, the chorus tips into color.

Common mistakes

• A file that is too short or too long: under 10 s there is no clip, beyond 4 minutes the breakdown no longer holds. Trim the track.
• Unreadable format: MP3, WAV or M4A only.
• Lyrics that differ from the singing: the sync is based on the transcription; paste the real lyrics or leave it empty, not an approximate version.
• Asking for text in the image: lyrics on screen or a drawn title don’t work. Use “Lyrics as subtitles”.
• Describing a dialogue: the characters don’t talk to camera, they act.
• Too many settings: a coherent world gives a clearer clip than ten places.

​

Settings that go with it

• Visualizer: the wave that follows your track, laid over the clip. Turned off, the clip comes out with only the images and your track.
  • “Wave style” and “Color” (custom color by hex code).
  • “Gradient” and gradient direction, “Glow”.
  • “Position”, “Height” and “Opacity”.
  • “Animate the wave with my track” to preview.
• Lyrics as subtitles: shows the lyrics on screen.
• Consistent characters: keeps the face of a singer or a hero the same from one shot to the next.
• Quality and style: the style applies to all the images. Refine it in “Refine the style (optional)”.
• Short test: if your track is long, try a 30 to 60 second excerpt first.
