Show HN: OVI AI – Cinematic 5-Second Videos from One Image and Prompt

Hi HN, We’ve been building OVI AI, a text-to-video tool that turns a single image and a short prompt into cinematic, sound-synced clips. It’s designed for creators who want fast, expressive storytelling without cameras or editing.

Key features:

Image to Video with Audio: Upload one image + a prompt — OVI AI generates a short, synchronized video with dialogue and ambient sound.

Prompt-Driven Direction: Control camera motion, lighting, pacing, and emotion using natural-language instructions.

Speech & Sound Tags: Add dialogue, voice-over, and SFX with inline tags; OVI AI handles lip-sync and audio mixing automatically.

Short-Form, Cinematic Feel: Optimized for 5-second, 24-FPS clips — perfect for TikTok, Reels, Shorts, or quick branded teasers.

Identity & Style Consistency: Keeps facial details, mood, and style consistent across renders.

Fast Iteration Pipeline: Save prompts, tweak tone or tempo, and re-generate variants instantly.

Why we built this: OVI AI is about speed and creativity. We wanted to make cinematic video generation feel as quick as writing a caption — helping creators, marketers, and studios produce polished micro-stories in seconds.

We’d love your feedback on:

How you’d use 5-second AI videos in your workflow.

What tools or APIs could make OVI AI easier to integrate.
