What Is a 10-Minute AI Video Generator?

A 10-minute AI video generator creates longer, connected videos from a prompt, script, storyboard, or multimodal references. It is designed for creators, educators, filmmakers, storytellers, and organizations that need more than a single short clip. With Instant Mode, users can move quickly from a prompt to a short-form video, while Director Mode provides control over characters, scenes, references, storyboards, and individual shots. The workflow supports videos from 30 seconds to 10 minutes.

For a faster social format, explore the short-form AI video workflow alongside the longer storytelling experience.

Two Ways to Create With AI Video

Choose a fast prompt-first workflow or build a complete story with shot-level creative direction.

Instant Mode

Go directly from a prompt to a finished short-form video. Instant Mode supports image, video, and audio references, one-click prompt optimization, and generation up to 30 seconds.

  • Designed for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels
  • Powered by Seedance 2.5 and MiniMax H3
  • Includes Smart Reference for multiple media types

Director Mode

Start with a storyboard and render each shot with greater creative control. Director Mode supports custom character references, scene images, reference videos, generated reference images, and complete video clips.

  • Control storyboards and individual shots
  • Supports Seedance 2.0, Seedance 2.5, and MiniMax H3
  • Create a complete story directly from text

What You Get

Generate longer stories. Create videos from 30 seconds to 10 minutes rather than limiting every idea to a short clip.

Keep characters consistent. Maintain identity, expressions, and performance across scenes.

Shape cinematic direction. Use built-in lighting, framing, atmosphere, and film-like visual direction.

Optimize prompts automatically. Use Prompt Optimization to improve the starting instruction before generation.

Bring your own references. Add images, videos, or audio through Smart Reference.

Create across languages. Output language support includes Greek and Kazakh alongside the broader supported language list.
