How I Used AI to Create 'Run//Fall//Chase'—A Fully Animated Synthwave-EDM Music Video with 23 Synced Visuals

Can AI redefine music video production? This experiment explores how 23 distinct AI-generated visuals were seamlessly synced to music—pushing the boundaries of AI-driven audiovisual storytelling.

:milky_way: Run//Fall//Chase | A Synthwave-EDM Odyssey marks the first time I’ve created a fully AI-powered music video where every animation is uniquely AI-generated and dynamically timed to the track. Unlike previous projects with just 1-2 looping visuals, this video integrates 23 AI-crafted animations, each aligning with the song’s emotional and rhythmic flow.

Bringing this project to completion was incredibly rewarding—seeing and hearing how well the audio and visuals synchronized was a powerful moment. While this process takes time, patience, and iteration, it reinforced that high-quality AI-driven music videos are achievable and well worth the effort.

:hammer_and_wrench: Workflow & Tools Used:

:desktop_computer: ChatGPT-4o – Conceptualization, storyboarding, lyrics development, and defining the music’s style
:musical_notes: Suno AI – Music generation (Synthwave-EDM fusion with cinematic synths & pulsing bass)
:film_frames: Meta AI – AI-generated animations via a two-step process: first prompting for a still image, then using built-in animation capabilities to bring it to life
:clapper_board: Sora – Direct AI animation generation through prompting for fully realized dynamic sequences
:film_projector: Wondershare Filmora – Editing & final production (timing, sequencing, and refining visual-music synchronization)

:magnifying_glass_tilted_left: Challenges & Learnings:

  • Maintaining Visual Consistency – Refining prompts for cohesive style across multiple AI tools
  • Syncing AI Visuals with Music – Ensuring animations flowed naturally with beat-driven pacing
  • Leveraging AI’s Strengths – Balancing AI-generated creativity with human direction for a polished result

This project raises exciting questions about AI’s evolving role in music video creation.
