If you're looking for another option for producing videos using AI amid the recent spate of AI video generators, there's another new one. The latest addition to your stable is Pollo AI, and you can try it for free right now. Pollo AI's features are remarkably easy to play with and can convert text messages and still images into high-quality videos.
Pollo is a product of Hix.AI, a developer of generative AI tools for conversation and synthetic media, including the new synthetic music platform Tad.ai. As with many AI video generators, you only need a text message to get a short video. The text to video generator can turn any script into a fully realized production, including animations and transitions. You don't need a film degree; an informal description will suffice.
You can also add motion to still images. When you upload an image, the AI will animate it in a way it deems appropriate for the context of the image, including environmental effects like ocean waves on the beach. You can also use text to explain what you want to happen or how you want people or objects to look in the image used in a video that might not include any other facets of the image.
The platform creates videos from your prompts very quickly, usually in less than a minute.
How to use Free Chicken
You can try Pollo AI for free and get 20 credits per month. However, all videos have watermarks and there are limited editing and camera movement options. If you want more features and credits, there are three pricing tiers of $15, $30, and $90 per month for 300, 800, and 3,000 credits, respectively.
The seemingly insatiable demand for AI video production has led to a flood of AI video tools for the masses. Depending on your needs, you can get plenty of free AI videos from the variety of platforms available, including Runway, Pika, Stability AI, Hotshot, and Luma Labs' Dream Machine.
The AI-generated elephant moving around the room is OpenAI's Sora model, which attracted a lot of interest when it was unveiled but remains limited to certain approved OpenAI partners. The same goes for Meta, which recently introduced the impressive Movie Gen AI video generator, but similarly restricted access to approved professional filmmakers.
Pollo may not outperform its rivals, but if the market even slightly reflects actual demand, it will probably do quite well, even with only a small portion of the potential user base.
