Lyrics belong in the compositor

Lyric Video Maker with Accurate Final-Stage Typography

MUSIC-TO-MV PROJECTPRIVATE
01

Choose a generated song or upload an authorized MP3/WAV.

02

Select a 15- or 30-second highlight, output ratio, and visual direction.

03

Generate and edit a versioned storyboard before any H3 job is submitted.

04

Attach validated reference images and approve an immutable server quote.

05

Render each H3 shot independently, review it privately, and rerender only what needs work.

06

Compose a final H.264/AAC MP4 with the original song as the only master audio.

Separate visual generation from text rendering

Generative video can suggest text-like shapes but should not be the authority for exact lyrics. The Studio explicitly tells H3 not to bake subtitles, logos, watermarks, UI, or lyrics into shots.

Timed lyric lines are shifted into the selected music range and rendered by the final FFmpeg compositor using ASS styles. This preserves spelling, timing, font choice, contrast, multilingual glyph support, and consistent placement.

Readable lyric-video controls

Timed line data

Use optional trusted transcription or existing aligned lyrics.

Lyric-safe framing

Choose templates that reserve negative space for words.

Multilingual fonts

The compositor image includes Noto CJK fonts for Chinese and mixed-language text.

Independent overlays

Title, lyrics, and watermark remain configurable final-stage layers.

Visual direction first, exact type last

This separation produces more reliable words and more flexible creative revisions.

Lyric video FAQ

01Does H3 generate the lyric text?+

No. H3 generates the visual shots. The final compositor renders exact timed lyrics from structured data.

02What happens before H3 rendering starts?+

You select a music range, generate a versioned storyboard, edit every shot, apply validated visual references, approve the storyboard, and request a server-side quote. No H3 job starts merely because a song was uploaded.

03How are final videos assembled?+

Successful private H3 shots are normalized and concatenated by a dedicated FFmpeg compositor. H3 audio is ignored; the selected portion of the original song becomes the only master soundtrack.

04Which formats are available first?+

The first production formats are a 15-second teaser and a 30-second social clip in 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1. The project architecture is designed to support longer formats later without treating them as one opaque generation.
