What is VoxelStudios?

VoxelStudios is an AI-native video editing platform designed for visual storytelling. It allows you to define characters, props, and costumes that maintain consistency across your entire project. The editor includes 50+ AI models for generating images, videos, audio, and more. Features include text-to-video generation, character consistency tools, visual storyboarding, and professional editing capabilities with 4K export quality.

How does AI video generation work?

AI video generation in our editor works by taking text prompts or images and using machine learning models to create video content. You can describe a scene in natural language, and the AI generates matching video footage. The system supports multiple models including Flux Schnell for images and Stable Video for video generation. Generated content can be directly added to your timeline for editing.

What is character consistency in AI video editing?

Character consistency is a feature that lets you define a character once and use them across multiple scenes while maintaining their visual appearance. You create a character profile with specific traits (clothing, hair, features), and the AI ensures those characteristics remain the same every time that character appears in your video. This solves the common problem of AI-generated characters looking different in each frame.

Is VoxelStudios free to use?

Yes, VoxelStudios offers a free plan that includes 5 video generations per month, 720p export quality, and access to basic AI features. For unlimited generations, 4K export quality, and all AI features including priority processing, you can upgrade to the Pro plan at $29 per month. Enterprise plans with custom model training and API access are also available.

What AI models are available in VoxelStudios?

VoxelStudios provides access to 50+ AI models for different creative needs. For image generation, you can use Flux Schnell, SDXL, and others. For video generation, models like Stable Video and Seedance 1.5 are available. Additional AI features include voice synthesis for generating voiceovers, auto-captions for speech-to-text, video upscaling, and an AI edit assistant for natural language editing commands.

Can I use VoxelStudios in my browser?

Yes, VoxelStudios is a fully web-based application that runs in your browser. No download or installation is required. It works on modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. The editor uses WebGL for high-performance video preview rendering and supports 4K export quality directly from your browser.

How do I extend a video clip with AI?

To extend a video clip with AI, select the clip in your timeline and use the AI Clip Extension feature. The AI analyzes your existing footage and generates additional frames that seamlessly continue the action. This is useful when you run out of footage or want to hold a shot longer without obvious looping. The generated extension maintains the style, motion, and content of your original clip.

What export formats does VoxelStudios support?

VoxelStudios supports exporting in multiple formats including MP4 (H.264), WebM, and MOV. You can export in resolutions up to 4K (3840x2160) with customizable frame rates (24, 30, 60 fps). The export system includes various presets optimized for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and other platforms, making it easy to create properly formatted content for any destination.

Beyond the Cut: Cinematic Transitions & Effects with AI

The Psychology of Transitions

Transitions aren't just decorative—they communicate meaning. Each type of transition signals something different to your audience. Understanding this psychology helps you make intentional creative decisions instead of random choices.

Professional editors follow a simple principle: use the simplest transition that serves the story. Flashy transitions can distract from your content. Reserve elaborate effects for moments that truly warrant them.

The Golden Rule: Less is More

AI opens up possibilities for creating custom transitions that would traditionally require After Effects expertise. Here are prompts for generating transition elements:

Dynamically changing clip speed adds drama and emphasizes key moments. Start at normal speed, slow down for impact, then speed back up:

AI-Generated Custom Transitions

Subtle zooms (Ken Burns effect) add life to static shots. More dramatic zooms create emphasis:

Adding subtle camera shake to static AI-generated footage makes it feel more natural and dynamic. Use sparingly—a little goes a long way.

Essential Video Effects

Connect two shots through visual similarity—matching shapes, movements, or colors. AI can help generate complementary footage for match cuts.

Let audio bridge visual cuts for smoother storytelling:

Matching Transitions to Genre

Great transitions and effects serve the story, not the other way around. Start with simple cuts, master the fundamentals, and add complexity only when it enhances your message. With AI tools, you now have the power to create custom effects that previously required specialized software and expertise.
