AI-Generated Reno Videos Demoed
David Roberts demoed AI-generated cinematic renovation videos from Zillow photos using Calico AI—$15 cost, no crew [https://x.com/recap_david/status/2031340031185662231].
The AI pipeline uses Calico AI, ElevenLabs, and ChatGPT to create these videos. The process involves using Calico AI's image-to-video capabilities to generate listing videos from still photos. The quality hinges on composition-aware prompts that mimic a cinematographer's planning. The creator manually downloads images, generates prompts, and edits, but aims to automate the image scraping, prompt generation, and timeline assembly. Each clip is around 5-8 seconds long, requiring 5-6 clips for a 30-second video. The creator of the AI pipeline has made a luxury property ad from a Zillow listing using Calico AI, ChatGPT, and Eleven Labs. The manual workflow is being combined into a single automation. These AI tools can also be used to create renovation videos showing the before and after of a room. With just one image, the AI can generate four progressive renovation stages and animate the results.
