How to make videos without filming anything

No camera, no studio, no time to film? You can still post great short videos. Here is how to make them from text and stock footage.

What you need

• an idea or a topic;
• a phone with a browser;
• five minutes.

The process

1. Type a topic — one line is enough: “3 mistakes first-time home buyers make” or “why cats love boxes”.
2. Tap “Get result”. The AI writes a short script with a hook and splits it into scenes, then picks a matching vertical clip for every line.
3. Check the scenes. Swap any clip, upload your own photo or video, trim, or regenerate a line.
4. Pick a voice and subtitles — free natural voices, your own recording, or ElevenLabs with your key.
5. Tap “Voice & build reel” and download a ready 9:16 MP4 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.

When to use your own photos

Stock footage is perfect for general topics. For your product, your shop, your house listing or your city, upload your own photos or videos for those scenes — it is more precise and more trustworthy.
