ShortDrama Studio

AI Music Video Generator

Bring a song to life with a story. ShortDrama Studio writes a narrative for your track, casts it, films it and cuts every scene to the music, so the video feels the way the song does.

Your AI music video crew, from song to final cut

A music video usually takes a director, a cast, a shoot and an editor. One agent does all four jobs from your song and an idea, and hands you the controls at every stage.

  • Write — Your song and idea become a story treatment and a scene list mapped to the verse, chorus and bridge. You can step in: Change the story, move a scene, choose the moment of the turn.
  • Cast — Every character, location and prop gets a reference sheet the whole video is shot from. You can step in: Put yourself in the video, recast a role, restyle the world.
  • Film — Each scene is generated in vertical or widescreen, straight from the treatment and the sheets. You can step in: Regenerate one shot, keep the rest.
  • Edit — Scenes are cut to your track on a timeline, with lyrics as optional captions, then exported. You can step in: Re-time a cut to the beat, add lyrics, re-export.

A story for every sound

Heartbreak ballads, summer anthems, dark synthwave or a slow-burn love song. Pick the genre of the story and the visual style that fits the track, from photorealistic to anime.

  • Heartbreak ballad — Rain on the window and the song you cannot stop replaying.
  • Synthwave — Neon streets, night drives and a pulse of retro light.
  • Summer anthem — Open roads, golden hour and friends who feel like forever.
  • Acoustic — A guitar, a rooftop and the moon as the only light.
  • Dream pop — Weightless, slow and underwater-soft visuals.
  • Love song — Two people, one empty bar, the last dance.
  • Indie folk — Fields, wind and a story told in faded colour.
  • Night ride — City lights through a train window after midnight.
  • Pop — Big chorus, bigger colour, a party that builds to the drop.
  • Lo-fi — Rainy mornings, warm mugs and a quiet loop.

The same faces from the first verse to the last chorus

A music video tells its story in a few minutes and many cuts. Every scene is generated from the same reference sheets, so the characters and the world hold steady through every cut.

  • One sheet per character — Locations and props get their own, too.
  • Referenced, not re-prompted — Every scene is built from the sheets, not from a fresh prompt that forgets what came before.
  • Change it once — Update a sheet and every scene you generate next follows the new look.

One video. Every platform.

Frequently asked questions

What is an AI music video generator?

An AI music video generator turns a song into a video. ShortDrama Studio makes narrative music videos: it writes a story for your track, keeps the characters consistent, generates every scene and cuts it to the verse, chorus and bridge.

How do I make a music video with AI?

Pick Music Video, describe the song and the story you see, and press Generate. The agent writes a treatment mapped to the song, casts it, generates each scene and cuts the video to your track. You can edit every step before you export.

Can I use my own song?

Yes. Use your own track, and scenes are cut to its timing so the big moments land on the big notes.

Can I appear in my own music video?

You can upload your own photo as a character reference, so the lead looks like you in every scene.

Can it add the lyrics?

Yes. Lyrics can be added as captions on the timeline, timed to the song.

Vertical or widescreen?

Both. Make a widescreen video for YouTube and a vertical cut for TikTok, Reels and Shorts.

Do characters stay consistent?

Yes. Each character, location and prop has a reference sheet, and every scene is generated from those sheets.

Can I release and monetize the video?

Yes. You can publish the music videos you make on YouTube, TikTok and other platforms, as long as you hold the rights to the music. See the Creative License for the full terms.

Is the AI music video generator free?

You can start for free and write your first treatment without a credit card. Generating scenes and the final video uses credits, shown before you generate.

Who owns the music videos I create?

You do. The videos you make belong to you, subject to the Creative License and the terms of service. Your music stays yours.
