No track yet? Prompt mode ships a music video from a one-line brief.
Real 9:16 render from the same pipeline.
Track in, music video out
Upload the song. Get a finished music video.
Most AI video tools hand you a six-second clip and stop, so you'd still need to loop it, cut to your audio, and stitch scenes together in an editor. MakeAIVideo takes your MP3 or WAV and generates a full music video sized to the track: multiple scenes in one visual style, cuts paced to the song, and 1080p export in every aspect ratio. No prompt-and-stitch workflow, no separate audio import.
Audio-first workflow
Your MP3 or WAV drives the scene timing, so the visuals land with the track instead of running long or short.
14 visual styles
Cinematic, neon, retro, anime, claymation, and more, applied across every scene so the video reads as one piece.
Every aspect ratio
16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for Reels, Shorts and TikTok, 1:1 for feeds, and 4:5 for portrait posts.
How it works
How the AI music video generator works
- 01
Upload a track or write a prompt
Drop an MP3 or WAV of the song you're building the video for, or skip the file and describe the mood in one line. Track mode uses your audio as the timing spine for every scene; prompt mode lets you pitch a music video before the master is finished. Either way, the pipeline reads the input and starts working straight away.
- 02
Pick a visual style and aspect ratio
Choose from 14 visual styles: cinematic for a filmic look, neon and retro for synth-heavy tracks, anime for stylised character stories, claymation for playful indie releases, and more. Set 9:16 vertical for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts; 16:9 for YouTube; or 1:1 for feed posts. Pick the ratio before generating so scenes and captions frame correctly.
- 03
AI generates the scenes, paced to the track
Every section of the audio becomes its own scene in the style you picked. Scene timing follows the length and structure of your track, so cuts land with the song instead of running past it. When you use prompt mode, MakeAIVideo scores a background track that ducks under any narration you add.
- 04
Render 1080p and post
A watermark-free 1080p MP4 lands in your library. Download it for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, or Spotify Canvas, or open the built-in editor to re-roll a single scene, swap the visual style, or trim the intro before publishing.
Generate a music video in your browser
Drop the track, pick the style, hit generate. A watermark-free 1080p MP4 lands in your library.
All included
Everything you get in a music video render
Track input, visual style, aspect ratio, 1080p export, and editor access bundled into every render.
Track or prompt input
Upload MP3 or WAV to drive scene timing from the audio, or write a one-line prompt if the master isn't ready yet.
14 visual styles
Cinematic, neon, retro, anime, claymation, and more. Pick once and the whole video renders in that look.
Every aspect ratio
9:16 vertical for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts; 16:9 for YouTube; 1:1 for feed grids; 4:5 for portrait posts.
Scenes paced to the track
Cuts distribute across the length and structure of your audio, so scenes land with the song, not past it.
Watermark-free 1080p
Clean 1080p MP4 exports on every paid plan, ready for YouTube, Spotify Canvas, and every feed.
Editor for tweaks
Re-roll a single scene, restyle a caption preset, or trim the intro without re-rendering the whole video.
What you can ship
A finished music video from your track, in the style your channel or release plan needs.
Indie musician lyric videos
Upload your single, pick a style that matches the mood, and ship a lyric-friendly music video the same day the master lands. Cheaper than a shoot, faster than a motion-graphics turnaround.
Producer moodboard reels
Pitching a track to a sync agent or a label? Prompt mode turns the vibe into a finished visual reel before the master is signed off. Useful for briefing directors, testing directions, and shopping around.
Faceless music channels
Build a TikTok, Reels, or Shorts channel around beats, lo-fi, or vocal tracks without filming a single frame. One upload becomes a vertical 9:16 clip in the visual style your feed already reads as yours.
Brand mood pieces
Marketers using licensed instrumentals for a launch reel or lookbook can turn a track into a paced brand video with matching visuals. Cinematic, retro, or neon styles fit most brand mood work.
DJ and producer promo
Turn a single or an EP snippet into a promo clip in every aspect ratio you need for release day: 16:9 for the YouTube upload, 9:16 for Reels and TikTok, 1:1 for the feed grid.
Songwriter demo videos
Pair a rough demo with a visual pass so labels, sync teams, or collaborators get more than just an audio file. Cheap way to make a demo feel finished when you're trying to move a song.

Best practices
Tips for music videos that land
- Use your own or royalty-free tracks
- Upload music you own the rights to, or use royalty-free instrumentals. Copyrighted commercial tracks will be blocked by platform Content ID even when the visuals are original, so bring the audio you can distribute.
- Pick the ratio before you generate
- 9:16 for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts; 16:9 for YouTube; 1:1 for the feed grid. Cropping a 16:9 render to 9:16 after the fact clips visuals that mattered and costs a second generation.
- Match the style to the genre
- Cinematic reads for orchestral and singer-songwriter tracks. Neon and retro suit synth-wave and electronic. Anime works for character-driven pop. Claymation fits playful indie. The style you pick sets the whole video.
- Prompt mode is for pitching
- If the master isn't finished yet, prompt mode lets you ship a reference music video before the audio is signed off. Useful for testing a visual direction with the artist or label before commissioning a real shoot.
- Write specific prompts in prompt mode
- 'A 90-second synth-wave music video with a lone driver at night, neon reflections, retro palette' will outperform 'a cool music video'. Specific mood, specific pace, specific visual language.
- Re-roll one scene, not the whole video
- If a single scene misses the mood, open the editor and regenerate just that scene. Faster and cheaper than re-rendering the entire music video.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need my own music track to use this?
No. If you have a track, upload the MP3 or WAV and the pipeline uses it as the timing spine for every scene. If you don't have a track yet, prompt mode lets you describe the vibe in one line and MakeAIVideo scores a background track for the video.
What audio formats do you accept?
MP3 and WAV. Drop the file into the upload area on the generate screen and the pipeline reads the duration and structure to plan scene timing.
Can I use copyrighted music?
No, and platform Content ID will catch it even if the visuals are original. Use music you own the rights to, or royalty-free instrumentals. If you're a musician uploading your own single, you're clear to distribute the finished video anywhere.
How long can the music video be?
Up to 10 minutes on Starter, and up to 30 minutes on Creator and Studio. Most music videos land in the 2 to 4 minute range, well inside every plan cap. See plan lengths.
What resolution do videos export at?
1080p HD MP4, watermark-free on every paid plan. That's the standard for YouTube, Spotify Canvas, TikTok, and Reels, so the export drops in wherever you post without any transcode step.
Which visual styles work best for music video?
Cinematic, neon, and retro are the most-picked for music work. Cinematic reads for orchestral and singer-songwriter tracks; neon and retro suit synth-heavy and electronic. All 14 styles work for music, and the editor lets you restyle after generating if a look doesn't land.
Can I edit the generated scenes?
Yes. Every render opens in the built-in editor. Re-roll a single scene, restyle the visual look, adjust the caption preset if you added lyrics, or trim the intro. Editing is optional; the default output is built to publish as-is.
How much does it cost?
Plans start at $29 per month with a 7-day free trial and $0 due today. Cancel any time during the trial for no charge. The plan covers the whole music video pipeline, no separate add-ons for scenes, styles, or exports. See pricing.
How is this different from a text-to-video tool?
Text-to-video tools take a prompt and hand you one short clip; you'd still have to loop it, cut to your audio, and stitch scenes in an editor. MakeAIVideo runs the whole music video: scene generation, timing to your track, style application, and 1080p render. Prompt mode is built in for when you don't have audio yet.
What happens after my 7-day trial?
Your plan starts billing at its monthly rate at the end of the trial. Cancel any time during the trial for no charge and you won't be billed.
