AI Video Generator
Luma's AI Video Generator turns text descriptions, images, and prompts into cinematic, production-quality video in minutes. Luma's AI Video Generator is powered by Ray, a reasoning-driven model that resolves composition, motion, and scene logic before generating a single frame — producing output that matches creative intent from the first generation. The result is native 1080p video with physically grounded camera motion, HDR output, and consistent scene continuity across shots.
Built on Reasoning
Luma's AI Video Generator: built on reasoning, not guesswork
Most AI video tools require technical setup, manual timelines, or trial-and-error prompting. Luma's Ray model reasons through your prompt before it generates — working out composition, motion, and scene logic first. The result is closer to what you had in mind from the first generation, not the fifth.
High-Quality, Cinematic Results
Native 1080p output with HDR support with EXR export. Built for production, not just demos. Your videos are crisp, clear, and stunning.
Automatic Motion & Effects
Realistic camera movement, depth, and scene dynamics — enhanced performance tracking and multi-keyframes.
Agent-powered Generation
Type what you want to see. Luma handles motion, lighting, and composition automatically.
No Editing Experience Needed
No software to learn. Describe it once and iterate from there.
How to generate
How to generate a video with Luma
Creating videos with Luma AI is as simple as 1-2-3.
1. Write your prompt
Describe the scene, subject, motion, and mood you want. The more specific the direction — camera angle, lighting, action — the closer the first output will be to your intent.
2. Add a reference (optional)
Upload an image, a storyboard, brand guidelines, an existing clip, or a character reference to ground the generation. Luma uses it to maintain visual consistency across the output.
3. Generate
Luma's Ray model reasons through your prompt — resolving composition, motion, and scene logic — then renders. Most generations are ready in under a minute.
4. Iterate or export
Refine with a follow-up prompt, adjust the style or camera angle, change the setting. Once you're satisfied, export directly in 1080p.
