Keep Up With Your Social Media Content Needs With the AI Reels Generator

OpenArt's AI Reels Maker is powered by the best-in-class AI video models including Seedance 2.0, Veo 3.1, Sora 2, Kling Omni, Wan 2.7, and many more.

Reels From Simple Prompts

Describe the scene, subject, and vibe, and the AI generates a vertical clip up to 15-secs long within minutes. Use OpenArt's prompt auto-polish to expand a rough idea into a full shot description with camera direction, lighting, and pacing. Run the same prompt through Sora 2 Fast for quick ideation, or Seedance 2.0 and Veo 3.1 when you need final-quality output.

Animate Any Photo Into a Reel

Upload a product shot, a portrait, or generate a fresh one inside OpenArt. The AI animates it with complete motion, camera movement, and atmosphere. Use OpenArt VFX to paint over specific masked regions to change and experiment with different environments and lighting within the video.

Add Sound, Voice, and Captions Natively

Add voice-over using text-to-speech, voice cloning, or expressive narration without leaving the workflow. Generate matching background music inside the same project and incorporate captions for sound-off viewing, which is how many reels are actually watched.

Trendy Styles and Catchy Looks

Switch between photorealistic, cinematic, anime, 3D, claymation, and pixel art without retouching individual frames. Use the Restyle tool to apply presets like Ghibli, Japanese Anime, Rick & Morty, or Retro Pixel Art to a clip you already have to give your reel a completely different look in one click.
