### **How it works?**

Video Studio offers a suite of AI-powered tools to take your video from concept to completion:

1. **Create** a new video from a text prompt using our most advanced video generation models.
2. **Animate** a still image into a video with Image to Video, or build a scene from multiple reference images with Reference to Video.
3. **Edit** existing footage using natural language — remove objects, swap backgrounds, adjust lighting, and more.
4. **Apply effects** with Video Effects to add cinematic VFX, motion blur, or lighting treatments to any clip.
5. **Extend** any generated video by 5 seconds and guide the continuation with a custom prompt.
6. **Animate characters** with Motion Control by transferring movement from a reference video onto your subject, or bring portraits to life with Lipsync.
7. **Video Reframe** allows you to change the angle of an existing video e.g changing from a frontal shot to a high angle shot
8. **Video Recolor** allows you to change the color saturation and overall hue of the video
