BeatViz Workflow Tutorial: Turn a Song Into an AI Music Video
BeatViz Workflow helps you create an AI music video from an uploaded song. Instead of assembling shots manually on a timeline, you choose an audio section, set the creative direction, review a scene-by-scene storyline and first frames, then generate the video clips and compose the finished MP4.
Start creating: Open BeatViz Workflow.
Workflow is not Editor. Workflow creates a separate task through
/create. BeatViz Editor uses its own project and editable timeline; a Workflow task does not automatically become an Editor project. AI Director is also a separate creation path.

New to Workflow? Follow these guides in order:
- Create Your First Workflow Task — upload audio, select the section you want, and start the guided process.
- Choose a Content Mode — Storytelling, Singing, Dancing or Abstract.
- Choose a Generation Mode — understand Standard, Pro and Premium, their clip lengths and resolutions.
- Add Characters — upload, select or generate up to two character references.
- Choose a Visual Style — combine an emotional direction with a visual look.
Plan your video before spending video-generation credits
After you select Generate Video, Workflow analyzes your audio and guides you through two decisions. It does not immediately deliver a finished video.
- Audio Analysis & Creative Directions — review the three creative concepts and select one.
- Edit Your Storyline — check scene timing and story descriptions, then confirm.
- First Frames & Video Prompts — review what each scene will look like before you render moving footage.
Generate and improve your clips
- Generate Video Clips — start all videos or work scene by scene.
- Regenerate a Clip — change a prompt or image without rebuilding the entire task.
- First Frames vs Reference Images — use the right type of image for the control you need.
- Keep Characters Consistent — practical checks to reduce character drift between scenes.
- Add Lip Sync — learn what is automatic in Singing and what is manual in other modes.
Finish and manage your work
- Workflow Credits & Costs — see when credits are charged and estimate your song's cost.
- Recover Drafts — return to an existing task and learn which early steps cannot be resumed.
- Compose & Export Your Video — combine finished clips with your selected audio section into an MP4.
The complete Workflow process
- Upload a supported song and choose a section of at least 10 seconds.
- Select Content Mode, Mode, clip length, resolution, aspect ratio and optional character/style presets.
- Click Generate Video. Workflow analyzes the audio and presents three creative directions.
- Select a direction, edit and confirm the storyline.
- Workflow prepares each scene's video prompt, creates the task and generates first frames. Image-generation credits are charged here.
- Review every first frame and prompt. Fix failed or unsuitable frames.
- Select Generate All Videos or render individual scenes. Video credits are charged at this stage; Singing also includes automatic lip-sync charges.
- When every scene has a video, select Compose to create the final MP4.
Workflow or Editor: which should you use?
Choose Workflow when you want the music analysis, directions, storyline and shot planning to guide the process. Choose Editor when you need a manual video timeline where you can rearrange or trim clips yourself. Workflow does not provide the Editor timeline.
Frequently asked questions
Can I paste a Suno, Spotify or YouTube URL?
No. Workflow requires a supported audio file uploaded from your device: MP3, AAC, M4A, FLAC or WAV, up to 200 MB.
Does Generate Video make the entire music video immediately?
No. It starts the guided planning process. After choosing a creative direction and confirming a storyline, Workflow creates first frames. You start video rendering separately, then use Compose for the final MP4.
Can I make singing and dancing videos?
Yes. Singing and Dancing are different Content Modes. Singing includes an automatic lip-sync step after video generation. Dancing focuses analysis and prompts on motion and rhythm, without automatic lip sync.
Where can I see my incomplete projects?
Open Drafts for created tasks, or select a recent draft on the Workflow start page.
