AI video generation from text prompts and images
Describe a scene in natural language and Ray2 renders a short video, interpreting complex prompts with the aim of matching the intended action and mood.
The platform accepts text and image inputs today, letting you use a still as a starting frame, with video input and video-to-video listed as upcoming additions.
Ray2 emphasizes logically smooth transitions between frames and supports resolutions up to 1080p for clips that can be used in real projects.
Generate in a range of formats so a single concept can be reused across vertical social feeds, square posts and widescreen placements.
