*AI Video from Text*

Canonical: https://novaclipper.com/for/ai-video-generator-from-text

Type what the video should say and Nova makes the rest: it reads your text in an AI voice, captions every word in time with the voice, and lays it over background footage picked for the mood. You get a finished 9:16 video to download — no filming, no editing timeline, no stock-footage hunting.

## What you get

### Text is the whole input

Paste a script, a list of facts or a story and Nova generates the narration, captions and footage around it.

### Footage that fits the words

Nova reads what the script is about and picks background footage to match — calm for explainers, darker for horror, brighter for facts.

### Ready to post

Vertical 9:16 with big captions for people watching on mute — the format TikTok, Reels and Shorts reward.

## FAQ

### Can AI make a video from text?

Yes — paste your text into Nova and it produces a finished vertical video: your words read in an AI voice, word-by-word captions synced to the narration, and background footage matched to the topic.

### Do I need any footage or a microphone?

No. The voice and the footage are generated, so text is the only thing you bring.

### Is it free?

Your first faceless short is free — no card. Nova gives every new account one full faceless render so you can judge the voice, the captions and the finished video before paying for anything. After that, shorts come in one-time packs from $0.99 with no subscription, or a monthly plan from $15 gives you up to 300 a month.
