Upload your track and describe the story or the look. ClipNova listens to the song, gives every sung line its own scene, cuts it to the music and burns in the lyrics as captions. Love songs, kids songs and visualizers, in 16:9 for YouTube or 9:16 for Shorts and TikTok.
Below, one love song, “Last Train Home”, goes from an MP3 to the exported video: Mara waits at a rainy station for Leo, who left years ago. Steps 1 and 3 are ClipNova's own Music to Video screens; the video frames are illustrations of the kind of music video you can make.
Open Music to Video and upload your song as an MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC or OGG file up to 20 MB. Then describe the visuals in your own words, up to 2,000 characters: the style, the characters, the places. The music video runs as long as your track.
ClipNova listens to the song, finds the lyrics and plans one scene for each line, so the picture follows what is being sung: the letter, the train window, the empty platform. Instrumental parts get scenes that match the mood of your theme.
Choose Base (480p), Pro (720p) or Ultra (1080p). Captions are on by default: the vocals are isolated from your mix and burned in as lyric captions in a style such as Hormozi. Switch them off for a clean visualizer.
The scenes are stitched in order and timed to the song, and your original audio stays the soundtrack. ClipNova does not change or replace your music; it builds the pictures and the edit around it.
Render in 16:9 for an artist's channel or a YouTube kids channel, 9:16 for Shorts, Reels and TikTok, or 1:1 for feed posts. Each render makes the one format you pick.
The music video comes back as one MP4 with no watermark and full commercial rights for the visuals. Then make the next one: a video for every song on the record, each with its own story and look.
Most AI video tools give you a few seconds of footage and leave the rest to you: syncing it to the music, matching the lyrics, adding captions. ClipNova starts from your track. The song sets the length, the lyrics set the scenes, and the result is a finished music video you can post.
That is why artists use it for story videos and visualizers on every release, and kids channels use it for learning songs and holiday songs: each line shows what is sung, the lyrics are on screen to follow along, and every song in a series can share the same look.
What it does not do: it does not write or generate the song, and it does not change your audio. You should own or have a license for any track you upload.

The music videos people make most with ClipNova. The frames are illustrations of the kind of video you can make.
A tool that turns a song into a finished music video. In ClipNova you upload your track and describe the look; the AI plans a scene for every sung line, generates the scenes, cuts them to the music, adds lyric captions and keeps your audio as the soundtrack.
Story videos for love songs and ballads, visualizers for a new release, and kids learning and holiday songs are what people make most. Describe the story, the characters and the style in your theme, and each sung line becomes a scene.
No. You upload your own track and it stays the soundtrack as it is. ClipNova makes the visuals and the edit. Only upload music you own or have a license for.
As long as your track: a 20 second hook gives a 20 second video, a full song gives a full length one. Files can be up to 20 MB, and longer tracks use more credits.
9:16 for Shorts, Reels and TikTok, 16:9 for YouTube, or 1:1 for feed posts (Ultra renders 9:16 and 16:9). Base is 480p, Pro 720p and Ultra 1080p.
Plans start at $19/mo. The cost depends on the length of your track and the quality you pick, and the app shows the exact credits before you generate. Credits reserved but not used are returned when the video is done.
