Meta’s newest AI tool edition is proof that Artificial Intelligence knows no bounds. Whether you want to create a striking image or an engaging short-form video, Meta’s Emu has something that will baffle you. This is just the beginning of a marvelous breakthrough all over the videography world. Emu Video and Emu Edit are two editing models to be released by Meta in the near future. 

Let us take a brief overview of what you can anticipate concerning these tools:

EMU Model: Meta’s Newest AI Tool Addition

Meta launched the EMU Meta AI projects in September 2023. Within 2 months of its launch, it showcased two distinct generative AI tool models named Emu Video and Emu Edit. The video tool creates short videos based on open AI user prompts and the editing tool edits images following the same open AI pattern. To be precise, you can create videos and modify images with prompts instead of getting things written. It is similar to the functions of Dall-E. With this AI technology in place, imagine the amount of time you will save editing your pictures. Both the Emu models are structured on Meta’s Emu Foundation model which has a history of yielding high-quality results.  

Meta Emu Video – High-Quality Video Generation AI tool

Emu Video is an excellent editing tool that allows users to convert a text or image into a video. The tool is trained on the diffusion model that ensures excellent video quality in short-form videos. For instance, you can create a video by adding a prompt (A cat hopping across a green field) or you can add an image of a cat and add a text description such as running across a green field. The tool will generate a 4-second-long animated video for you. You can add ‘sub-prompts’ in addition to the original Emu Video prompt to enhance the overall quality. 

Text-to-Video Feature

Meta’s Emu AI model can generate videos based on a text prompt. All you need to do is insert the appropriate text command so the tool can use the diffusion model to generate results.

1. Text only
2. Image only
3. Combination of both text and image

The process is designed simply in two parts. In the first half, the tool generates images as per the text prompt. Later, it uses both text and images to generate AI-based videos. This entire division of the creation process into two sections makes it all the more efficient.
 
Meta uses this split two-step video generation process which can be obtained within one diffusion model. 

The operations of Emu Video are very similar to ChatGPT. With ChatGpt, you receive text results in the form of paragraphs and written content. While Emu Video offers video creation to support a text prompt.

Image-to-Video Feature

A blog post recently published by Meta innumerates all the exciting features of this image editing tool. This cutting-edge text-to-video and image-to-video is a simple and powerful method that will help you generate cool videos based on the caption, a photo with a description, or an image. Using Emu Video you can create a 4-second long video. The tool also provides you the opportunity to improve the video quality by incorporating text prompts.

Meta Emu Edit Tool

Emu Edit enables users to edit specific portions of an Emu Video. You can add or eliminate elements with ease without needing an expert hand. Also, as the Emu Video, Emu Edit can function on text commands. For instance, you can achieve the following results just by adding a text prompt:

1. Add a human figure.
2. Replace a character ‘Cat’ with another character ‘Dog’.
3. Eliminate a character from the frame. 
4. Change the Background.  

You can also use Emu Edit to add a different transition to certain segments of the videos. For better insights, you can add a prompt “the same clip, but in time-lapse”, in the newly generated video, and you will see the modifications applied. 

The process of generating a prompt is pretty simple. Firstly, you have to think of a prompt that can potentially turn a text into a video. The prompt could read like – “A cat wearing a cap”.

Following this command, you can add different sub-prompts to add elements such as Flying with the cape fluttering over the building in a photorealistic style.

Users can be creative by manipulating a simple video and tweak the results to obtain different versions of the same image. With the power of AI, you can create wonderful results in real-time. 

How Meta’s Emu Video is Better than Make-A-Video?

Meta previously built a text-to-video research product known as Make-A-Video. This version requires 5 models. Emu Video requires 2 diffusion models and creates four-second videos in the size 512*512. The videos are presented at the rate of 16 frames/second.  

Meta declares that nearly 96% of participants responded that they prefer Emu Video’s quality to the former Make-A-Video’s. And, 85 percent of participants chose the former by relying on the accuracy of text prompts. They suggest that users can share images and the tool will provide an animated result with enhanced precision. The performance of Emu Video has set new standards and previously released projects through a significant margin.

Bottom Line

Meta has yet not announced a release date for both these tools but with their blog posts, they allow users to have a sneak peek into the incredible abilities of the tool. These tools are not only versatile but also very easy to use. All you need is an image or a prompt and you can generate high-quality videos. 

These new AI tools can potentially dominate the editing market and simplify complicated editing tasks to a great extent. Leveraging the power of AI, users can transform the editing and animation landscape entirely.
