## Question

What is AI video?

## Answer

AI video is video content generated, extended, animated, or transformed by artificial intelligence. Creators usually start from a text prompt, image reference, video reference, or a mixed workflow, then guide the result with subject, motion, camera, lighting, style, duration, and final payoff details.

## Key Takeaways

- Text-to-video prompts turn written scenes into motion.
- Image-to-video prompts animate a still reference while preserving subject identity and composition.
- Video-to-video workflows remix motion, style, or structure from an existing clip.
- Strong AI video examples usually have a clear hook, readable motion, and a promptable ending.
