Key Features

• Text-to-video magic: Describe your vision in words (or upload an image) and watch it come alive—think “a neon-lit cyberpunk cityscape with flying cars” or “a cartoon sloth sipping tea”.
• High-resolution output: Generate videos in crisp 1080p or higher, perfect for social media, presentations, or personal projects.
• Long-form video support: Create clips up to 10 seconds long (or longer with advanced techniques)—ideal for short films, ads, or TikTok trends.
• Style flexibility: From photorealistic to anime, sketch-style to 3D, it adapts to your aesthetic preferences.
• Consistent motion: Characters and objects stay true to their appearance across frames, so your dancing robot won’t morph into a toaster halfway through.
• Fast rendering: Get results in minutes, not hours, thanks to optimized AI pipelines.
• Intuitive controls: Adjust camera angles, lighting, and pacing with simple prompts or sliders.
• Cross-modal creativity: Combine text and images for hyper-specific outputs—like turning a sketch into a vibrant animated scene.

How to use CogVideoX-5B?

1. Start with a prompt: Describe your video’s scene, mood, and action. Be specific! Instead of “forest,” try “a misty enchanted forest with glowing mushrooms and a fox wearing glasses.”
2. Add optional inputs: Upload an image to guide the style or include specific elements (e.g., your logo in a product demo).
3. Tweak settings: Choose resolution (1080p, 4K), aspect ratio (16:9, 1:1), duration, and style (e.g., “cinematic” or “cartoon”).
4. Generate and preview: Hit “Create” and watch the AI work its magic. Preview the video to check pacing and details.
5. Refine as needed: If the dancing penguins look too stiff, adjust the motion intensity or rephrase the prompt.
6. Export your masterpiece: Save the video in your preferred format (MP4, MOV) and share it with the world!

Pro tip: Use descriptive verbs like “swirling,” “gliding,” or “exploding” to add dynamic movement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use CogVideoX-5B for commercial projects?
Absolutely! The videos you create are yours to use in ads, social media, or client work—just make sure your prompts don’t infringe on copyrights.

How detailed should my text prompts be?
The more vivid, the better! Include specifics about colors, lighting, and actions. Think of it like writing a mini-storyboard.

What if my video looks weird or off-brand?
Try tweaking the style keywords or breaking complex scenes into shorter clips. Sometimes “a majestic dragon soaring over mountains” works better than “dragon scene.”

Does it support multiple languages?
Currently, English prompts yield the best results, but the team’s working on expanding language support—stay tuned!

Can I edit the generated video?
You’ll get a final rendered file you can trim or enhance with third-party tools, but in-app editing (like cutting frames) isn’t available yet.

Why does my video have blurry parts or odd transitions?
High-action scenes or rapid cuts can trip up the AI. Slow down the pacing or simplify the prompt for smoother results.

Is there a limit on video length?
Free-tier users get up to 10-second clips, while Pro plans unlock longer durations. That said, 10 seconds is perfect for snappy, shareable content!

How does it handle realistic human faces?
It’s pretty good, but results vary. For hyper-realistic portraits, pair a detailed prompt (“a smiling woman with curly red hair and freckles”) with the “photorealistic” style tag.

What makes CogVideoX-5B different from other video generators?
Its sheer scale (those 5 billion parameters!) and focus on motion consistency let it tackle complex scenes that others might botch—like a flock of birds morphing into letters.

Can I generate videos frame-by-frame?
Not exactly—it’s designed for end-to-end generation. That said, you can create still images with CogImageX and animate them here for custom control.
