Bringing every story to life

Today, Hypernatural is launching our biggest update ever: full AI motion for your whole story. In about 3 minutes and for under $5, all your characters will move, talk to each other, emote, and interact with their environments, with just one click.

Here it is in action:

Hypernatural is for storytellers. And if there’s one thing we’ve learned in 2.5 years of building Hypernatural, it’s that everyone has a story to tell. From writers building epic fantasy worlds, to parents telling their kids bedtimes stories, to creators bringing historical moments and beloved characters to life, the only limit on human’s innate need for stories is the time it takes to tell, and listen, to them.

From the beginning, our goal has been to help creative people bridge the gap between creative ideas and reality. This is why we’ve focused so much on characters, their costuming, and how they interact with each other and their environment through each video: they make the story feel realized. For people who want to to tell stories through video, this gap has historically been more like a chasm. Unless you’re filming simple front-facing videos, producing a finished story still means assembling a team, securing funding, and mastering complex software…an expensive and time-consuming process that only a handful of creators or studios can afford.

With this launch, anyone with a story to tell can now bring it to life in minutes instead of months. What’s shipping:

• End-to-end full motion that animates every scene of an entire story with high quality generated video in under 2 minutes.

• Natural dialogue and character interactions that make stories feel truly alive.

• Character specific voices and custom voice creation to add individuality and emotion to every character.

• Consistent character costumes for continuity across scenes.

• Support for animal and creature characters for expanded creative worlds.

• Enhanced creative controls for seamless scene flow and pacing.

You can see all these features in action by watching Marie Antoinette give a tour of her palace, Benjamin Franklin fall through a time warp and the Statue of Liberty starting third grade.

This launch gives everyone access to cutting-edge, long-form video creation. But unlike the Veos and Soras of the world, which work for a few seconds, Hypernatural’s video creation brings long-form content within reach for everyone by getting the characters and motion right in every scene, fast.

It’s also a fraction of the cost: the videos above can each be created for under $5.

Many of our most passionate users never made a video before they started telling their stories in Hypernatural. They include thousands of amateur historians, novelists, genre storytellers, and parents entertaining their kids. We’re proud to help them tell stories through videos with a level of fidelity that would have been impossible otherwise.

For our more professional user, Hypernatural’s motion features are also an enabler at earlier stages in the creative process. Whether they’re testing out concepts, storyboarding the scene flow or pitching a logline, Hypernatural new features helps creative people get their ideas one step closer to reality more quickly, with less cost.

With access to full animation, natural dialog and more, we can’t wait to see what the Hypernatural community builds next!
