Hello everyone, I'm FuturEvoLab. Today, I'd like to share the process and some tips on how I created the music video for "Future Dreams" I hope this can be helpful and inspiring to you all. Let's learn from each other and make progress together.

Production Process

  1. Conceptualize Music

    • First, I determine the type of music I want to create. For this project, I decided on an inspirational Japanese anime style, with a storyline involving future technology, AI robots, and human awakening.

  2. Write Lyrics and Generate Prompt

    • Next, I use ChatGPT to generate the desired lyrics and prompts for the music genre. Once I have the lyrics, I import them into Suno and fill in the corresponding music generation prompts until I generate a song I am satisfied with. This step helps me solidify the direction of my creation.

  3. Import into CapCut

    • Once I have the satisfactory music, I import it into CapCut to set the rhythm points, which will guide the subsequent visual editing.

  4. Generate Images

    • Then, I use Leonardo.ai's text-to-image feature with the ANIME model style to generate the required images. These images will form the basis of the animation.

  5. Create Animations

    • After generating the images, I categorize them and use Luma Dream Machine's image-to-animation feature to create animations from these images.

  6. Remove Watermarks and Edit Video

    • Once the animations are generated, I download and import them into CapCut. I crop Luma's logo by manually adjusting the size to 109% and repositioning to cover the logo.

    • Then, I align the corresponding images with the lyrics in the appropriate sections. Sometimes, the generated AI animation is not entirely usable, so I remove unwanted parts and use frame blending and the Smooth slow-mo optical flow feature to make transitions smoother and ensure the animation does not stutter. Additionally, I adjust the animation length to sync frames with the music beats.

  7. Add Appropriate Effects

    • During the editing process, I add suitable effects to enhance the visual appeal. Since most effects are part of the paid service, I use them judiciously.

  8. Export Final Product

    • Finally, after completing all the edits, I export the animation video, resulting in the final product.

Following these steps, I successfully created the "Future Dreams" music video. I hope my sharing is helpful to you, and I look forward to seeing more excellent works from everyone. Thank you for watching!
