Vikit.ai Software Development Kit

Vikit.ai SDK let you develop easily video generators leveraging generative AI and other AI models. You may see this as a langchain to orchestrate AI models and video editing tools. To see the video in full resolution, click on the GIF.

How to use Vikit.ai SDK?

You need a personal access token, which you can easily obtain from here.

Vikit.ai SDK is easy to test standalone using Google Colab.
It is easy to develop through Dev Containers. Dev container file and instructions are available here

Requirements for local installation

Python 3.8+
requirements.txt contains requirements for python environment
FFMPEG and FFPROBE (on mac, using homebrew: brew install ffmpeg and on linux, using apt-get: sudo apt-get install ffmpeg)
ImageMagick (for subtitles only; on mac, using homebrew: brew install imagemagick and on linux, using apt-get: sudo apt-get install imagemagick)

Code examples

Generating a video from simple text prompt, with background music and voice over narration:


import asyncio
from vikit.music_building_context import MusicBuildingContext
from vikit.prompt.prompt_factory import PromptFactory
from vikit.video.prompt_based_video import PromptBasedVideo
from vikit.video.video_build_settings import VideoBuildSettings

prompt = "Paris, the City of Light, is a global center of art, fashion, and culture, renowned for its iconic landmarks and romantic atmosphere. The Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, and Notre-Dame Cathedral are just a few of the city's must-see attractions."

video_build_settings = VideoBuildSettings(
    music_building_context=MusicBuildingContext(
        apply_background_music=True,
        generate_background_music=True,
    ),
    include_read_aloud_prompt=True,
)

async def create_video():
    prompt = await PromptFactory().create_prompt_from_text(prompt_text)
    video = PromptBasedVideo(prompt=prompt)
    await video.build(build_settings=video_build_settings)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(create_video())

You can orchestrate several videos, using CompositeVideo(). Here is an example showing how to generate two videos from texts:


import asyncio
from vikit.video.composite_video import CompositeVideo
from vikit.video.raw_text_based_video import RawTextBasedVideo
from vikit.video.video_build_settings import VideoBuildSettings

async def create_composite_video():
    prompt1 = "Paris, the City of Light, is a global center of art, fashion, and culture, renowned for its iconic landmarks and romantic atmosphere."
    prompt2 = "The Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, and Notre-Dame Cathedral are just a few of the city's must-see attractions."

video1 = RawTextBasedVideo(prompt1)
video2 = RawTextBasedVideo(prompt2)

video_composite.append_video(video1).append_video(video2)

await video_composite.build(
    build_settings=VideoBuildSettings(
        output_video_file_name="Composite.mp4",
    )

    video_composite.append_video(video1).append_video(transit).append_video(video2)

    await video_composite.build(
        build_settings=VideoBuildSettings(
            test_mode=False,
            output_video_file_name="Composite.mp4",
        )
    )

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(create_composite_video())

More elaborated examples can be found in script_example.py or in our Google Colab. For additional information, please refer to the Documentation.

Too many parallel video generation processes might slow things down, just keep an eye on your local CPU usage. Happy coding! 🚀😊
