Video (Motion)
Make a video from a template
Pick a sample video or a template, give it your content (an idea, a script or a voice file) and let AI build the video.
Every video on sangtao.ai starts from a template: a ready layout, motion and look. You only bring the content — an idea, a script or your own voice recording — and AI writes the words (if needed), reads them, picks the pictures and builds a project you keep editing in the editor.
Steps
Step 1. Open the video page
Press New video in the left sidebar. The Motion page has two tabs: Sample videos (finished videos, filtered by Industry and Purpose) and Your projects.
Step 2. Pick a sample video or a template
Two ways:
- From a sample video: in Sample videos, press a video like the one you need. The Make a video like this page opens with its choices (voice, where the pictures come from…) already set like that video.
- From the template list: press New and pick a template in the Pick a template window. The Create a video page opens, with the template's preview on the right.
The Motion page's "Sample videos" tab: the grid of samples, the Industry / Purpose filters on top, the "New" button at the top right circled in red
Step 3. Choose how to start
At the top of the left panel, pick one way:
| Way | You give | AI does |
|---|---|---|
| From a script | Your script | Keeps your words, cuts the scenes, reads it |
| From an idea | A topic or a question | Writes the script, cuts the scenes, reads it |
| From your voice file | A voice file (with an SRT if you have one) | Hears the words, cuts the scenes on your voice |
From your voice file only shows for templates that use one voice for the whole video. In the script box each line is a scene; put keywords in asterisks to highlight them on the video. No script yet? Press AI writes it inside the box.
Step 4. Choose pictures, voice and look
Under the content box are the choices you can change (they depend on the template):
- Visual source — for example ready-made illustrations, free stock photos or videos, AI pictures (charged), or My photos & videos (only with your own voice file).
- Style, Background music, Captions, AI pictures (picture style, anything more, characters).
- Voice and Pace.
- Advanced — video language, reading speed.
Changing the style later in the editor costs nothing.
Step 5. Pick a format and press Make video
In the right column, pick the format (for example 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts; 16:9 for YouTube). Estimated shows the expected credits before anything runs. Press Make video · ~… credits.
The "Make a video like this" page: on the left the From a script / From an idea / From your voice file buttons and the script box; on the right the format picker, the Estimated box and the "Make video · ~… credits" button
Step 6. Wait while AI builds it
Progress shows step by step (writing the script, cutting scenes, reading, finding pictures…). You can close the window, even the tab — the server carries on and saves into the project. When it is done the editor opens by itself; the project is also under Your projects.
Limits and notes
- A script is at most about 5,000 characters (a video of about 5 minutes). Longer, press AI shortens it to ~5 min or cut it yourself.
- The idea box takes up to 500 characters.
- You can fill the form without signing in; you are asked to sign in when you make the video, and what you typed stays.
- What you are typing is kept in your browser, so a reload doesn't lose it.
- An account has at most 200 projects — delete some to make a new one.
