Dream Machine is a brand new AI video generation model developed by Luma Labs. It is designed to quickly create high-quality, realistic videos from text and images.
It can help anyone generate physically accurate and consistent shots by leveraging a highly scalable and efficient transformer model trained directly on videos.
Features:
Speed: Dream Machine is incredibly fast, generating 120 frames in 120 seconds. This allows users to iterate quickly, explore more ideas, and experiment with different concepts.
Action-Packed Shots: The platform generates 5-second shots with realistic smooth motion, cinematography, and drama. This allows users to transform static images into dynamic stories.
Consistent Characters: Dream Machine understands how people, animals, and objects interact with the physical world. This allows users to create videos with great character consistency and accurate physics.
Cinematic Camera Moves: Dream Machine offers a wide range of fluid, cinematic, and naturalistic camera motions that match the emotion and content of the scene.
Pricing and Plans:
Dream Machine offers a variety of pricing plans to suit different needs and budgets.
- Free Plan: Limited usage.
- Lite Plan: $6.99 per month for 3,200 credits.
- Plus Plan: $20.99 per month for 10,000 credits.
- Unlimited Plan: $66.49 per month for 10,000 credits.
- Enterprise Plan: $139.99 per month for 10,000 credits.
Despite the limited generations in the free plan, Dream Machine’s inclusion among our free AI tools is warranted by its exceptional quality. It directly challenges established video generation platforms like Sora and Pika.
How to use it:
1. Visit Dream Machine’s official website and create a free account.
2. In the prompt box, provide a detailed description of your desired video. For example:
"Grazing cows move slowly across an idyllic meadow, the camera tracking alongside them in a smooth side-angle motion."
3. Click “Generate” and wait about 120 seconds for your video. Due to high demand, requests may be queued. (See the example video below, generated with the prompt mentioned in step 2!)
4. Dream Machine also allows you to generate video from images. Upload a static photo and describe the desired video transformation. For example, I uploaded a photo of a girl and requested a video of her smiling at the camera.
5. Dream Machine is continuously evolving, with new features and improvements added regularly. Stay updated by following their Twitter or joining their Discord community.
