Give ClipNova a photo or a paragraph. It builds the storyboard, generates every scene, records the voiceover, scores the music, syncs the captions and delivers the finalized video, ready to upload.

How it works

You bring the idea. ClipNova builds the whole video.

Every step below runs inside one generation. Here is the same project, a 5-minute documentary on how honey is made, followed from the input to the final export.

  1. A smartphone photo of a honey jar next to a short text brief, the two ways to start a long-form video in ClipNova
    — 01 —
    Your input

    Start from an image or a few lines of text

    Upload a photo, or type what the video is about, how long it should be and who it is for. One paragraph is enough. ClipNova reads the intent, sets the tone, the pacing and the target length before anything is rendered.

  2. A hand-drawn six-panel storyboard sheet planning the scenes of the honey documentary
    — 02 —
    Storyboard

    ClipNova writes the storyboard

    The idea becomes a scene-by-scene plan: what each scene shows, how long it runs, the camera move and what the narrator says over it. A long video is planned like a film, in chapters and beats, not as one endless prompt.

  3. Six generated video scenes laid out in a grid, numbered one to six, from a beekeeper at dawn to jars on a farm stand
    — 03 —
    Scenes

    Every scene is generated to match

    Each storyboard panel is rendered with current video models such as Veo 3.1, Kling 3.0 and Sora 2, with the same look, light and grade from the first scene to the last. Chapters keep their own visuals, so a 5-minute cut never feels like a loop.

  4. A scene of a beekeeper walking through a misty meadow with a narration line and an audio waveform over it
    — 04 —
    Voiceover

    The narration is recorded for you

    The script from the storyboard is voiced by a natural AI narrator in any of 32 languages, timed scene by scene. Pick a voice, or clone your own, and the same video can be re-voiced for another market without re-rendering the visuals.

  5. A scene of honey pouring from an extractor with an equalizer overlay showing the music track under the narration
    — 05 —
    Music

    A background score that follows the story

    ClipNova picks a music bed that fits the mood, matches it to the pacing of the chapters and ducks it under the voice automatically. No licensing, no trimming, no timeline.

  6. A macro scene of a bee on a lavender flower with a synced caption bar and the current word highlighted
    — 06 —
    Captions

    Captions synced word by word

    Subtitles are transcribed from the voiceover and burned in, highlighted word by word as the narrator speaks. Choose the caption style once and it stays consistent across the whole video, so it still lands with the sound off.

  7. The finished honey documentary at its final frame in a video player, marked as a 4K final render with 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 export options
    — 07 —
    Final video

    You get the finalized video

    Scenes, voice, music and captions are assembled into one file with chapters. Export 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for social or 1:1, up to 4K, watermark-free with full commercial rights. Change a line in the brief and re-render in minutes.

Why long-form is different

Most AI video tools stop at a clip. ClipNova delivers the video.

A text-to-video model gives you five to fifteen seconds of footage. That is a shot, not a video. A long-form AI video generator has to solve the parts around the shot: a structure that holds attention for minutes, scenes that stay consistent with each other, a narration that carries the story, music that follows it and captions that keep it watchable on mute.

ClipNova treats the whole thing as one job. The storyboard is written first, so every scene has a reason to exist and a place in the runtime. The scenes are rendered against that plan with a shared look. Voice, music and captions are generated from the same script, which is why they line up without an editor. The result is a finished cut, not a folder of clips.

Because the plan is text, changing the video is editing text. Shorten a chapter, swap the narrator's language, move the call to action earlier, and re-render. Videos go up to 5 minutes per render, and longer projects can be chained with consistent characters and locations.

Long-form AI video generator questions.

What is a long-form AI video generator?+

A tool that produces a complete multi-minute video from a brief, rather than a single short clip. In ClipNova that means the storyboard, the scenes, the voiceover, the music and the captions are all generated from your image or text and assembled into one finished file.

Can I start from an image instead of text?+

Yes. Upload a photo, a product shot or a reference frame and describe what the video should be about. ClipNova builds the storyboard around the image and keeps its subject and style consistent across the generated scenes.

How long can the video be?+

A single render goes up to 5 minutes. A 60-second cut usually has four to eight scenes; longer videos use up to twenty scenes, organised in chapters. For longer projects you can chain renders with the same characters and locations.

Do I need to write the script?+

No. ClipNova writes the storyboard and the narration from your brief. If you already have a script, paste it and the tool follows it scene by scene instead.

Which languages are available for the voiceover and captions?+

The narration is available in 32 languages, and captions are transcribed from the voice, so both switch together. You can re-voice a finished video for another market without regenerating the scenes.

Can I edit the video after it is generated?+

Yes. Re-cut scenes, swap a shot, change the narrator, adjust the music or fix a caption, then re-render the variant in minutes. Because the plan is text, most edits are a change to the brief.

Is there a free trial?+

Yes. Every new account starts with 70 free credits and no card required. After that, plans start at $19 a month, and every plan includes the full feature set and full commercial rights.

What formats can I export?+

16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for Shorts, Reels and TikTok, and 1:1 for feeds, at 1080p or 4K, watermark-free. The same project can be exported in all three from one render.
