AI Audiobook to Video

Quick answer: SceneMixer takes three kinds of input: text, up to four photos for an ad, or a video to remake. It does not take an audio file, so an audiobook or a recorded story goes in as its transcript. From the text, the characters and places are drawn once, the narrator stays as voice-over lines, and the people in the story speak in the video. The voices are generated; the recording is not reused.

From a recording to a video

  1. Get the text. Use the book's manuscript, or a transcript of your recording from a speech-to-text tool.
  2. Tidy it into scenes. Cut ads, intros and housekeeping; keep the story and the narrator's best lines.
  3. Upload as .txt, .docx or .md. Read the cast and places.
  4. Choose the look and voices. Narration becomes voice-over; characters get their own voices.
  5. Render and join. Priced by the finished second.

In SceneMixer vs. stitching tools together

Most AI drama workflows are five or six tools in a row. This is where each step happens here, and what it replaces.

StepIn SceneMixerDoing it by hand with separate tools
Script and episode planPaste a script or a novel, or type one line: it is read into a cast, locations, props and an episode outline you can editA chat model writes the script; you split it into episodes and carry the text from tool to tool
Character faces and placesEvery character, location and prop is drawn once as a reference sheet and attached to every shot it appears inAn image model, one sheet at a time; you upload the right reference to every clip yourself
ShotsA storyboard per episode with numbered shots and seconds; video is generated segment by segment in 9:16 or 16:9 against the same sheetsA video model, one clip per prompt, describing the same people again each time
Voices and dialogueLines are performed in the video itself, one voice per character, in any of 15 languagesA text-to-speech tool for each line, then a lip-sync pass on every clip
Fixing one shotEdit that shot's text and regenerate the segment alone; the rest of the episode is untouchedRegenerate the clip, then re-cut the timeline
FinishingSegments are composited into one episode file with its score; members download without the AI badgeA video editor to join the clips, add music and captions, then export
PublishingYou upload the finished episode to TikTok, YouTube, Instagram or anywhere else; nothing is posted for youUpload by hand, the same as here
