Editor's top pickBest for: Film and advertising teams generating specific shots and effects
AI video generation and editing, now built on a general world model
Why consider it

- Aleph transforms real footage, which gives far more control than pure generation
- Act-Two solves the uncanny performance problem better than prompt-driven acting
- Characters and Workflows make multi-shot sequences realistic to attempt
